We are still trying to wrap our heads around this one.
�Winning Cityview’s Best of Des Moines again is such an incredible honor—and we don’t take it lightly for a second.

This recognition isn’t about us or a title. It’s about every client who trusted us, every one of our artists who poured their heart into their craft, every long day, late night, cancellation, setback, and comeback along the way. It’s about showing up—over and over again—even when it’s hard.

To be voted “Best” in a city like Des Moines, surrounded by so many talented, hardworking people and businesses, truly means the world. We are proud to be part of this community and grateful beyond words for the support you continue to show us year after year. A huge congratulations to the other nominees—being recognized alongside such talented, hardworking businesses is an honor in itself.

Thank you for believing in us, growing with us, and letting us do what we love every single day. This win belongs to all of you.

Forever grateful and community proud.
— Chris & Michele

AND for Monsterama Pubcade to win Best New Local Bar - we couldn’t be more excited!!

2026 is off to an amazing start, and as we head into the year in full swing, it’s clear this one hits a little different. Lucky Gal Tattoo & Piercing is celebrating 15 years of doing what we love, with the best clients and the most INCREDIBLE artists around.

Chris and I are beyond honored to share that we’ve been nominated for Cityview Best of Des Moines for the 9th year, and even more proud to see two of our amazing artists nominated for Best Local Artist. We wouldn’t be celebrating any of these milestones without our incredible clients—you’re the reason we’ve come this far.

From day one to year fifteen, this has always been about passion, creativity, hard work, and community. Thank you to everyone who has supported us, trusted us with their tattoos and piercings, and helped build Lucky Gal into what it is today.

Here’s to 15 years — and many more to come.

Sincerely,
Chris & Michele
