We Are
Curly’s Tattoo Parlor opened its doors in April 2025, born from five years of grinding through commission-based shops and freezing warehouse jobs. Founded by Matt and Brian, Curly’s is here to prove that tattoos should make you feel comfortable in your own skin – not intimidated by the people giving them to you.
After years of seeing shops that prioritized attitude over artistry, we decided Athens needed something different. A place where old-school rebellion meets genuine human connection. Where you can walk in with any idea and walk out with badass ink that tells your story.
We’re not just another tattoo shop – we’re building a revolution one tattoo at a time. Our mission is simple: revolutionize the tattoo experience by combining old-school rebellion with modern skill, empowering people to break free from conformity and express their authentic selves through ink that tells their story.
Every piece we create is designed to make you feel more comfortable in your own skin while carrying art that defies expectations.
