Hurts So Good Tattooing & Piercing

Specialties

I specialize in creating custom tattoos. You bring the ideas and I’ll give you one of a kind piece of ink.

History

Established in 1995.

Owner, Dave Stodola, started tattooing in 1995 in Wisconsin. Since then he has owned and operated shops in Florida and Vancouver, Washington before settling in Portland, Oregon.

One thing you’ll notice when you walk into Hurts So Good Tattoos is that there is not a single piece of flash on the walls. That’s because every tattoo that Dave creates is a custom work of art.
