    Went in for the first time yesterday and got a small tattoo from Lexi. The shop is cool and she did a fantastic job. Definitely going back for my next tat.

Portrait of tattoo artist Lexi Ross

Meet Lexi

I started tattooing in 2023 and now work out of Revival Tattoo Studio in Urbandale. Florals and plants are what I draw most, and stipple is how I like to shade. My clients come from all over the Des Moines metro: Ankeny, West Des Moines, Clive, Altoona, Grimes, and Johnston.

A lot of my clients come in for their first tattoo. I walk you through every step, and the design is drawn for you.

Price depends on size, placement, detail and color. Flash designs have a set price. Custom pieces get a quote after I see your idea, before anything is booked.

Yes. A lot of my clients come in for their first tattoo. I explain each step before we start, and you can ask questions at any point. Read my first tattoo guide →

Yes. Send a clear, well-lit photo of the tattoo you have now, and I’ll let you know what’s possible. How cover-ups work →
