About
It might seem strange that a tattoo removal shop loves tattoos but we do.
We believe in the artistry and tradition that lies behind body art and that is why we have set out to embrace the beauty and authenticity of ink. Our goal is to offer a service that can get rid of the tattoos that you don’t want so there can be space for ones you do. We believe that the only real constant in life is change. The freedom to create, to think different and to lead unique lives means that every now and then we might require a clean canvas.

Tattoo removal in

Andrea Sheehan, RN
Registered nurse
Andrea has been a registered nurse since 2001. Andrea’s experience includes work with critical care patients at the Portland Veterans Hospital as well as public health nursing with underserved communities in a variety of settings.
She loves working at the Untattoo Parlor because it allows her to help people achieve their body art goals-whether that ultimately mean clearing away old ink for new art, or restoring the skin to its original form. Andrea is a native Oregonian and lives in Portland with her husband and two boys.

Jacqueline Perte, RN, BSN
Registered nurse
Jacqueline has been a registered nurse since 2004. After graduating from the University of Portland, she spent most of her nursing career in the field of women’s health, including inpatient and high-risk maternal-child nursing.
Jacqueline was drawn to The Untattoo Parlor initially as a patient looking to explore pain-free tattoo removal, and then later as a health care provider interested in supporting patients through the tattoo removal process. When not at work, Jacqueline enjoys spending time with her two children, and her two French Bulldogs, Hazel and Scarlet.
