Starting to serve customers in Lake Villa, Antioch, and surrounding areas, Good Family Tattoo became one of the most loved tattoo and body piercing studios in Lake County, IL. ​

Joel and Henry Huff, true veterans of tattooing and piercing, started their lives in art and music at very early ages. They grew up in a family with a rich art background. As a brilliant artist himself, Joel and Henry’s father was always very encouraging and supportive of their art.

​

In 1985 the Huff family moved to southern California where they embraced the world of punk-rock, skateboarding, street art, tattoos and piercing. Even though they started their tattoo career separately, they both had visualized what their ideal body art studio would look and feel like. They wanted a custom tattoo and body piercing studio that was stylish, clean, and comfortable. They wanted to open a studio in which their clients would be assured they would walk out with a high quality piece of art done. ​

Joel and Henry knew that the only way to make their vision a reality was to go into business for themselves.​

​

In 2014, Joel took over the business on his own and married his wife, Ashley in 2015. Since then, they have had two children, Bodhi and Holiday. 

​

And the result is what we currently know as Good Family Tattoo.
