Owner/Tattooer
Lodi native, Josh Palmer, is no stranger around town but is the proud owner of Lodi’s newest premier tattoo shop. Offering modern and up-to-date sterilization methods, thousands of ready-to-go tattoo designs, a massive gallery of tattoo flash, and artists capable of turning any idea into a reality - Old Vine Tattoo is a sure choice for the highest quality of tattooing in the area.
Firmly rooted in the traditions of tattooing, Josh has over 20 years of experience in many prestigious shops around the country and the globe. Through this experience and exploration he’s grown as an artist while forging solid friendships which for you means Old Vine will host some killer guest artists (stay tuned for more on that!).
Another solid attribute, he is a firm believer that no tattoo is more important or more cool than another - he understands the significance of a tattoo is completely subjective to the person wearing it. Josh regularly delivers beautiful work in nearly every style of tattooing, including traditional American tattoos, Japanese bodysuits, black and grey, lettering, custom pieces, cover-ups, repairs, portraits, and so much more.
Where “good enough” ain’t good enough.
