February 16, 2024

Hello everyone. We hope that the year is going well for you ! As we slowly get to the end of winter we are all excited about that beautiful spring weather and the opportunity to show off new tattoos! We’d love to have you in the shop for your next tattoo! We started taking more walk ins due to having brought on more artists. While Saturday will remain focused on walk ins only, we will be taking walk ins daily. Some of our artist do prefer to book early in the week so please reach out to them to see about availability if you are seeking to get work from a particular artist.

A reminder that the Steeped in Tradition Tattooer Art Show is still available in the gallery. Don’t miss out on this awesome show. Many pieces from some of the top tattoo artists in the country paying homage to the craft itself through the creation of artwork that embodies the foundation of tattooing. Many of the artwork is for sale! Take home one of these outstanding works of art and decorate your home, office or tattoo shop for those that are tattooers . All are welcome to come view the artwork. They truly need to be seen in person to be appreciated.

Here are a few recent tattoos done by all of us in the shop!

Steeped in Tradition Tattooer Art Exhibition

January 27, 2024

The January 14th opening of Steeped in Tradition was a great success. With frigid temperatures outside we had a turnout that we could only dream of! Tattooers from as far as Washington traveled to enjoy the show. The support for this event is overwhelming and we are very appreciative of that. Thanks to the work of Colby Morton, Steve Bayman , Angie Bayman and Michelle Dreher we were able to promote and hang the show. King Theodore Records also was kind enough to spin the records that created a great atmosphere! This show has over 90 artists and 140 works of art. We are very grateful and thankful for all those that supported the event by attending and those artists that sent work to participate in one of the largest curated tattooer run art shows in the United States.

Check out some of the photos we managed to take during the show below. The show will be available to view (and art to purchase) through the end of February.

July 27th already!

July 27, 2023

Another month is almost in the books as this year seems to be screaming by. Hopefully everyone has had a safe and fun summer. As stated in the previous “Feeds” we recommend you stay out of the sun as much as possible with those new tattoos! Want your tattoo to last? The use of sunblock is a must! Don’t let the sun destroy your tattoos that you spent your hard earned cash on.

Kai Pierce has been trucking along in her apprenticeship and has been green lite to do simple walk-ins. These will be done at a reduce rate . Anyone that is interested in getting tattooed by Kai should email the shop to set something up or come in during business hours to talk to her. Pictures of her work thus far are in her artist profile on this website.

Thanks again to all our great clients that let us do what we love for a living.

Here are some recent works by the Golden Stag Family.

Thanks for looking! We hope to see you in the shop for an appointment or a walk-in!

Mid July!

July 13, 2023

We are in the thick of summer and it’s been a hot one. Be careful with those fresh tattoos! No direct sunlight and keep them out of water please! Nothing worse than seeing a fresh tattoo abused and healed badly.

Also, if you are going to get tattooed keep that in mind when you are out in the sun. We will not tattoo on sunburnt skin and peeling skin. Treat your skin right! High SPF sunscreen is the way to go!

Artist Zach Yates is out of the shop for a while mending a broken arm. Let’s wish Zach a speedy full recovery. We already miss his laugh and SoundCloud rap music haha. Get well Zach!

Kai Pierce is the shop apprentice and she’s been allowed to tattoo simple pieces moving forward. Linework tattoos and simple shaded pieces . She also has a style that is unique so check her out for a custom design if you like.

We have a guest artist Tommy Rick who is sitting in until October. His information and bio will soon be up on the site in the artist section. Check him out!

Thanks for the continued support and we hope to see you in the shop soon!

By appointment or walk-in Tuesday -Friday . Saturdays walk ins all day.

Here are a few recently done tattoos from the Golden Stag crew:

February right around the corner already!

January 30, 2023

2023’s first month is almost behind us. Thanks to all our great clients we have stayed busy through January and look forward to an even busier spring. Tattooing has always been a bit seasonal and as we head into “tax season” we expect to be even busier in our 5th year open. Walk in Saturdays are now in full effect! Always feel free to call ahead, but walk ins are a first come first served basis. Larger work is still preferred to be done on an appointment basis.

The shop is also saying goodbye to Dominick. Dom has been with us for a couple years, has worked really hard and it’s been a pleasure to watch him grow and thrive. We appreciate all that he’s done for the shop. He’s represented us to the fullest and will always be a member of the Golden Stag family. He will be in the shop for February and then will be moving over to Stormy Tattoo. He’s always welcome to come hang and do some tattoos in the future so keep an eye on our page for when that happens. Thanks and we wish you nothing but the best Dom.

We still have Steve, Lindsey and Adam in the shop to take care of your needs. Adam is in the shop every other week taking walk ins.

March we will be hosting guest artist Tristen Wilson again. He will be sitting in March 6th-11th. If you’d like to get in with Tristen , feel free to send us an email to set something up. goldenstagtattoo@gmail.com

Here’s a few recent tattoos done in the shop! Thanks for looking. We hope to see you in the shop soon for your next tattoo!

We hope everyone had a great end of the year. We enjoyed extra time with the family! We are fired up for 2023 as it’ll be our 5th year in business. I’m sure we will have a 5 year party sometime in the summer. Stay tuned for that.

Update on Artist Adam Unrein. He’s going to be week on week off moving forward. He primarily does walk ins so feel free to call ahead to see about scoring a walk-in with him.

ALSO! WALK-IN SATURDAYS will be something to look forward to in 2023. Steve, Dominick and Adam will be doing walk ins all day Saturdays. Call ahead if you want on Saturdays to see how busy we are or just swing in.

We look forward to working with you all in 2023!

Here are a few recent tattoos by the GST family.

Hello November.

November 5, 2022

We are knee deep in Fall after having crossed past Halloween! Thanks to all the clients who continue to keep us busy during this “slow” season . Tattooing always hits a lull this time of year as families direct their energy towards the festivities associated with Fall and Winter.

We had our Halloween special and it was a good time. Thanks to all those who were adventurous enough to pick one of our flash designs to celebrate Halloween. We will do it again next year and hope to make it an even bigger event! Stay tuned for that.

We would also like to congratulate artist Adam Unrein on the opening of his tattoo shop AU TATTOO in Russell Kansas. 402 N Main St, Russell, KS 67665. Adam is doing walk ins at Golden Stag every other week, He primarily does walk ins so call ahead to see when he’s in shop.

We’ve been steady , so here’s a few fun ones that we got to do recently. Thanks for looking and we hope to see everyone in shop soon.

UPDATE ON STEVE:

Steve has been working his way back from surgery. The healing process is a bit longer than expected but there has been progress. Once he gets back into tattoo shape he will be back to taking appointments and even doing walk ins. If you have an appointment with him he should contact you in the event he isn't ready. He appreciates everyones encouraging words and looks forward to being back in the shop tattooing at some point.

AND NOW SOME RECENT WORKS!

Mid August update

August 19, 2022

August is already over halfway through! We hope everyones summer was a good one. The shop has remained busy through summer which is something we can’t thank everyone enough for! We’ve started taking more walk ins especially since Matthew joined us. Walk ins are taken daily if your interested. It is a good idea to call ahead 816-514-3119.

Shop owner and tattoo artist Steve Bayman recently had shoulder surgery. He’s on the path to full recovery , but it will take around 6 weeks for him to be back to tattooing full time. Stay tuned to see when he’s back. In the meantime Steve has created an online store of his designs available on shirts, hoodies, cups and more. go to http://tee.pub/lic/95Ikzd20nAU to purchase an item. He appreciates all the support.

July!

July 7, 2022

We hope that everyone had a great and safe 4th of July. We are heading into the dog days of summer so we can’t stress enough how important it is to take care of your skin whilst out in the sun. If you are going to get tattooed please don’t get much sun beforehand or take the proper precautions to avoid sun burns. We cannot tattoo you if you are sunburnt or peeling.

Parking out front of the shop continues to be a problem. I’ve included a map that shows where to park under the Menu/Construction Parking tab. Please pay attention to workers out front and their signage. We don’t want a clients car to be ticketed nor towed. Hopefully they will get done in a week or so and we will get our parking out front back. Thanks for being patient in regards to the lack of front door parking.

Art show this Friday starting at 4pm. Swing in and see the work of Kansas City artist Adrian Halpern. There are prints and originals for sale as well! Adrian will be in the gallery to talk!

Always feel free to give us a call to ask about walk ins (yes we take them). 816-514-3119. Thank you for the continued support and we hope to see you for your next tattoo!

Here’s a few recent tattoos by artists in the shop:

Memorial for a mother who passed by Steve

June 1st! Summer is almost here!

June 1, 2022

We had a lot of fun at the Villian Arts KC Tattoo Festival. If you didn’t make it down to check out the festival we highly recommend checking it out next year. Shout out to the great artists that dropped by to say hello and the cool tattooers at Keepsake Tattoo in OKC who hung out with us after the show. Of course thanks to all the clients that came out to get tattooed by us AND those that just swung by to say hello. We truly appreciate it.

HOURS UPDATE!

We’ve taken some time to think about work/life balance. We came to the conclusion that it was a good idea for our families to start closing at 7pm so that we can spend an extra hour with them during the week. New shop hours are Tuesday through Saturday 11am-7pm. We hope you all understand our want to spend some extra time with our kids. They grow up fast and we don’t want to miss out on it. Of course artist’s in the shop can decide to book appointments outside our normal business hours. Please contact your preferred artist and see about scheduling and what kind of flexibility they have.

OK! Thanks for listening to me ramble…here’s some of our recent works…
