The reality series Tattoo Review announced on Thursday that it will broaden its distribution to four digital platforms serving the Charlotte, N.C., market. Production has shifted to the Tattoo Factory of Charlotte, the latest addition to The Tattoo Factory chain of tattoo studios. The studio is situated at 5237 Albemarle Road, Suite 106, Charlotte, NC 28212, and the series will be filmed on‑site for upcoming episodes.

Tattoo Review, a niche reality program that follows tattoo artists and clients as they discuss design choices, technique, and aftercare, has previously been available on a limited set of streaming services. The expansion to four platforms marks the first time the series will be simultaneously accessible across multiple Charlotte‑based digital outlets, increasing its potential viewership in the region.

The Tattoo Factory chain, known for its modern facilities and emphasis on hygiene, opened its Charlotte location earlier this year as part of a broader national rollout. The new studio occupies a 2,500‑square‑foot space designed to accommodate both walk‑in clients and production crews. Its address and contact details are listed on tattoofactoryofcharlotte.com, where additional information about the shop’s services and the series’ filming schedule is available.

Industry observers note that the partnership between a reality series and a specialized retail chain reflects a growing trend of content creators leveraging physical venues to enhance authenticity. By filming at an active tattoo shop, Tattoo Review can capture real‑time client interactions, while The Tattoo Factory gains exposure to a wider audience interested in tattoo culture.

The move also underscores Charlotte’s rising profile as a hub for creative media production. Local businesses anticipate ancillary benefits such as increased foot traffic to the studio, heightened interest in tattoo services, and potential collaborations with other content producers seeking authentic backdrops.
