About Us

Dragonland Tattoo was founded by Shahn Anderson in 1994. With nearly 35 years of tattooing experience, Shahn has earned the reputation of having one of America's elite studios as well as having one of the most artistically creative staffs.

​

With over a decade of convention tours, traveling abroad and a solid reputation for one-of-a-kind custom tattooing, Shahn decided to locate the shop in Hopkins, Minnesota. Being a Minnesota native, Shahn realized the good nature and loyalty his midwest clients carried. Wanting to run a very elite shop where people would travel to get tattooed and not have to deal with a lot of the big city walk-in traffic. Hopkins only seemed natural as a place to make his artistic niche.

​

Here at Dragonland Tattoo Shahn hand picked his staff to meet any needs a customer might have. Whether the person was thinking of small traditional swallows or a full-scaled Japanese body suit, Shahn wanted to make sure every artistic aspect had been covered.

​

Currently Shahn's staff consists of himself, Dan Dittmer, Stephanie Schill, John Chamberlin, Kelli Clausen, Dustin Rolli, and Kat Vigdal. Between these seven artists the artistic spectrum at Dragonland Tattoo has been filled, resulting in each artist being well versed in both their artistic skills and technical skills.

So whether you're thinking of your first tattoo or an avid tattoo collector looking to add on, Dragonland Tattoo can meet your needs!

​

Dragonland Tattoo charges hourly and works by appointments only. Consultations with the artists are recommended before the actual tattoo appointment dates are set up - as we draw up every piece to fit your needs.

​

Dragonland Tattoo requires that you MUST be 18 years of age and have a valid drivers license or state issued photo ID (birth certificates will not work).

​

So swing down and talk to the folks here first-hand, you won't be disappointed!
