Today, we’re incredibly proud to celebrate 5 years in Otsego.

Over the last five years, we’ve had the honor of meeting thousands of amazing people, creating tattoos that tell your stories, celebrating milestones with you, helping cover old chapters, and creating new ones. Every appointment, every recommendation, every review, every share, and every conversation has helped shape what 9/8 Tattoo Collective has become.

What started as a vision has grown into a community, and that is because of all of you.

To our clients, friends, families, supporters, fellow small business owners, and everyone who has trusted us with their skin and their stories: thank you. Your support has allowed us to continue doing what we love every single day.

We would also like to thank our incredible team and everyone who has been part of our journey over the years. Building something meaningful is never a solo effort, and we’re grateful for every person who has contributed to the growth of our studio.

As we move into year six, our commitment remains the same: to provide a professional, welcoming, and creative environment where quality, integrity, and artistry come first.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for an amazing five years.

Here’s to the memories we’ve made, the tattoos still to come, and many more years of creating art together

🚧 Road Construction Notice 🚧

Just a friendly heads-up to all of our clients!

Beginning June 8, MDOT will be resurfacing M-89 (Allegan Street) from the Kalamazoo River to US-131 in Otsego. The project is expected to continue through mid-October and will include lane closures, traffic shifts, and temporary traffic signals throughout the construction zone.

We are OPEN and operating as normal during the project! Please plan to leave a few extra minutes before your appointment, as traffic delays are likely.

We appreciate your patience and support while this much-needed road improvement is completed. ❤️

We’ve had quite a week here, and we just want to take a moment to thank everyone for the continued support.

The storms hit our community hard, and between power and internet outages, it definitely slowed things down for us. We know that affected a lot of schedules, and we truly appreciate your patience while we worked through it all.

As we wrap up the week, we’re taking a moment to reset and move forward.

Here’s a little sunshine for your Sunday—piece by Bradley ☀️

Also our shop is registered with FEMA and other organizations for disaster assistance and will be helping with storm cleanup and recovery efforts in our community. If anyone is interested in joining- shoot us a message and we can help get you enrolled.

Been getting this one a lot lately: “Tattoo ointment is what heals your tattoo”.

- Short answer incoming-

Ointment does NOT “heal” the tattoo.

What it actually does is:

*Keeps the skin from drying out too much
*Reduces cracking and irritation
*Protects the area while your body does the real work

Too much ointment can actually slow healing by suffocating the skin.

A very thin pea sized drop to layer is all you need.

Your tattoo heals because your body is incredible, not because of the brand.

A good tattoo + good healing habits = the results you keep for life.


If you ever have questions about healing your tattoo, ask your artist.

Always check the ingredient list as even some “tattoo specific brands” aren’t even safe for tattoos -not even close to kidding.

We take aftercare very seriously here at 9/8 Tattoo Collective and YOU absolutely should as well!

Happy International Women’s Day. 🖤

Did you know about 1 in 3 women have at least one tattoo?

What was once seen as rebellious has become one of the most powerful ways to tell a story, reclaim your body, honor milestones, and express who you are. Women continue to shape tattoo culture every day — as collectors, artists, shop owners, and leaders in the industry.

At 9/8 Tattoo Collective, we’re proud to be co-owned by a woman, and incredibly grateful for the amazing women who trust us with their stories and their skin.

We’d love to see your pieces.
If you’re a woman who has been tattooed by us, share your tattoo in the comments or tag us in your post or story so we can celebrate your art with you.

Here’s to the women who wear their stories proudly 🖤🖤
