DISCUSSION & RESULTS

The results displayed are highly subjective because each factor considered may or may not matter to each person. Also, for some people, factors like shop rate, which I ranked higher with a higher rate, may in fact be the opposite for them.

Based on the analysis and factors I considered, these are the top shops in downtown Vancouver:

Case 1:

#1 Sacred Heart (both shops), West Coast Tattoo, Craftsman Tattoo, Adrenaline
#2 Electro Ladylux
#3 Next! Body Piercing & Tattooing
#4 Liquid Amber Tattoo
#5 The Fall Tattooing

Case 2:

#1 Sacred Heart (both shops), West Coast Tattoo, Craftsman Tattoo
#2 Adrenaline
#3 Electro Ladylux
#4 Next! Body Piercing & Tattooing
#5 Liquid Amber Tattoo
#6 The Fall Tattooing

From these results, we can see case 1 and case 2 are quite similar. The shops are all fairly close to skytrain stations, therefore having little effect on the ranking order.

Well there you have it, those are just two cases of different combinations to consider before deciding which tattoo shop is the best for you. I encourage you to do your own research and look into the factors that are most applicable to you. Hope this website helped as a guide or a starting point. Good luck!
