Birdhouse was founded on one idea: building a safe and comfortable environment for getting tattoos. Getting a tattoo can be a transformative experience, a healing journey, an act of expression and self-love, or all of the above and more -- Birdhouse artists have a deep respect for this process. Many of our artists are neurodivergent, so we understand the importance of having just the right amount of sensory stimulation, and use tattoo machines that make barely any noise at all.
