At Black Velvet Tattoos & Piercing, we’ve built more than just a tattoo shop—we’ve created a space where art, individuality, and authenticity come together.

Located in the heart of Cape Girardeau, Missouri, our studio is known for delivering high-quality tattooing and professional piercing services in an environment that feels both welcoming and creative. From walk-in clients to long-term collectors, we take pride in offering a personalized experience that reflects who you are and what you want your ink to say.

Our shop is led by owner Jason Beuchaw, a traveling tattoo artist with a passion for the craft and a deep respect for the culture behind it. His vision for Black Velvet is simple: build a studio where talented artists can thrive, and clients feel comfortable bringing their ideas to life.

Inside the shop, you’ll find a team of skilled artists, each bringing their own style, creativity, and perspective to the table. Whether you come in with a fully developed concept or just a rough idea, we work closely with you to create something original—something that actually fits you.

We believe that great tattooing goes beyond the final result. It’s about the entire experience—from the first conversation to the last detail. That’s why we maintain a clean, professional studio, use high-quality equipment, and follow strict hygiene practices for both tattoos and piercings.

But more than anything, Black Velvet is about people.

We’ve built a laid-back, approachable atmosphere where clients feel at ease, whether it’s their first tattoo or their fiftieth. We listen, we collaborate, and we make sure every piece we create has meaning behind it—not just ink on skin.

Over the years, we’ve grown alongside our community, welcoming both locals and visitors who trust us with their ideas, their stories, and their milestones. For us, every tattoo is more than a design—it’s a permanent part of someone’s life, and we don’t take that lightly.

At Black Velvet Tattoos & Piercing, you’re not just getting a tattoo.

You’re part of the experience.
