At Stay True Tattoo & Piercings, owner Veronica (@lady_v_tattoos) is redefining what it means to be a versatile, client-focused artist in an industry where women have had to fight for their place. Her work speaks for itself—ranging from delicate floral linework and meaningful script to bold blackwork and illustrative designs. Whether you’re getting your first tattoo or adding to a collection, she brings the same dedication, precision, and love to every piece.
🔹 Fine-line floral & script – Soft yet structured, perfect for meaningful designs.
🔹 Playful, bold pieces – Like the ghost & shell, showing her ability to keep things light and fun!
🔹 Intricate blackwork & shading – As seen in the fox piece, where depth and texture come to life.
This Women’s History Month, we celebrate Veronica’s journey—not just as an artist but as a shop owner who built a space for everyone. In an industry that hasn`t always been welcoming to women, Veronica has crafted a studio that prioritizes inclusivity, creativity, and community in ways that other shops don’t. 💪✨
Support women-owned businesses. Support women in tattooing. If you’re looking for an artist who truly listens and brings your ideas to life with care, Veronica is your person!

I took my 6 year old daughter in to have her earlobes pierced yesterday. She was very nervous once we arrived, but everyone at the shop was so friendly and professional (even with a little girl in tears). Chris, the piercer, was so patient while my daughter overcame her nerves and was very accommodating to make sure that my daughter was comfortable. Everything was very clean, and the shop had an inviting atmosphere. I am glad I chose this shop to bring my daughter to for her ear piercing!Christina L.
I booked a surprise Christmas present for my husband with T. She was great to work with and of course knocked it out of the park! While we were there I decided to get a tattoo as well, my first. She walked me through everything and was so sweet. The shop was clean and everyone was super nice!Mark C.
