About Lifetime Tatoo
Denver's Premiere Custom Classic Tattoo Shop
Opened in 2001 by Jay Maeslin and Rob Hostetter, Lifetime Tattoo quickly began building a reputation for doing great classic American tattooing. With the appearance of a tattoo museum and hospital sterilization, Denver had never had the opportunity to get tattooed in a shop like this.
In 2006 Josh Ford, who managed the critically acclaimed Twisted Sol, went in with client and total bad ass Seth Daniels and purchased the shop from Jay and Rob. Seth and Josh quickly began major renovation adding two additional tattooing stations. Josh and Seth got extremely lucky and added on two of Denver's best tattoo artists Djene Toure and Alisha Rice.
The artist team of Josh Ford, Walter Haggard Allen McDonald III, Alisha Rice, Djene Toure and JJ Crampton is considered by many as one of the best tattoo shops in Colorado and in the United States. Ranging from tattooing black panthers or full body suits, we can tattoo it and tattoo it well.
We are very clean and friendly at the shop. We have a very laid back unassuming attitude toward our craft and love doing tattoos. We like to have fun and try to create a relaxed atmosphere not unlike a Tahitian vacation. We guarantee that you will love your tattoo and the experience you get with us.
