    Here she is yelling at us.

    TERRIBLE MANAGEMENT! VANIA the manager or whatever she claimed to be yelled and cussed out her employee in front of us and made sure to let us know walk ins are not welcomed because she had appointments (she was not tattooing us) easily cost the shop $500 she should be embarrassed. her attitude was disgusting and the owner should be notified to train their employees better!

    Wonderful service and cool vibes coming into the shop. My tattoo and my boyfriend's piercings were done very well. My idea was brought to life and I can't wait to be back for more!

    I got my first tattoo and it was a fine line tattoo. Billy was AMAZInG. Very knowledgeable and professional. This tattoo has lots of meaning and he was caring and took the utmost care. We will definitely be back! I highly recommend Billy!

    AJ powers is everything I could ever ask for in a tattoo artist. He has become very close to my heart and the art he has put on my body is so beautiful seriously I'm speechless. I feel so happy to have found him, he is someone I will love for the of my life, he is amazingly artistic. He could draw before he could speak, that says a lot. The shop he keeps is his life. Super clean. Tattooing is absolutely his world. He works so hard and puts his work before everything, so that means If you are his client he will put everything into your time together. I showed him what I wanted and he laughed, said he could do better and I'm embarrassed of the examples I Gave him. I trust him so much I am giving him my right forearm to do whatever he wants, let a true artist be right in his element. I trust him very much and I am so excited to promote his art, as I am his full canvas, my whole body will be tattooed by nobody but him and I couldn't be more blessed. I have a lot of photos of his work and I'll continue to post more. I love you a.j!!!

    Ray did amazing work on a quick little lettering job I asked for. He took me right away and was very professional and personable. I would absolutely come back to him for future work!

    I really don't want to do this but it's been over a week now and I'm completely scarred, at first my piece was done wonderfully but when asked to do a back splash everything went wrong. I was inked too deep and have major scabbing, my whole arm was swollen for four days, I felt like my skin was about to burst open. I wish I didn't have to write this review, but I don't want this happening to someone else.

    My artist Frank was excellent. It was my first tattoo at age 56 and he made me feel at ease and…read morecomfortable. The design was simple and exactly what I wanted.

    After a failed attempt at another walk-in space, my best friend and I ended up at All Saints on…read more6th. Parking was an absolute nightmare so I would recommend taking a rideshare to get to this location.    When someone talks about tattoo shops in Austin, All Saints is definitely one of those mentioned almost every time. The tattoo/piercing shop has wonderful reviews and a ton of happy patrons. The vibe in this space is very lowkey and homey. We were the first ones in for the day.   My best friend and I wanted to get complementary tattoos. We only wanted three words in Seagram each with my best friend getting hers in black and me getting mine in red. We were told it would cost extra for red ink. Fine.   After the woman working the front took the stencil print-outs to the artists, she came back and quoted us $200 each. What? We were shocked. I knew the tattoo wouldn't take more than 20-30 minutes and did not understand how my friend was quoted the same as me if "red is extra." Thus, I came to my own conclusion that pricing is completely random and up to the artist. I guess it's a game of luck?   That being said, Carlos did a wonderful job on my tattoo and Hannah did a great job on my friend's. Carlos and I had a lot to talk about as we were raised in the same city and he went to my highschool while I was also in attendance. Wild stuff!   Still, for what we got, I wouldn't have paid more than $150 + tip for this tattoo. There needs to be a length requirement or some rules and regulations for pricing (I know this is not easy). Just know you're getting very talented artists when you walk-in!   Bring your wallet!

    This review is way past due. Last year, I was absolutely devastated over the loss of Prince, and I…read moreneeded something to help me heal... something permanent... a tattoo! I wanted to have "him" with me in some way for the rest of my life... enter ZULU. I am a hairdresser, and a wonderful client of mine said to me one day as we were discussing tattoos, "there's nobody on earth I'd let tattoo me other than Zulu". This is HIGH praise coming from this particular woman, so I looked him up. As soon as I went to his website, I felt an energy that I can only describe as "this is it, this is my guy", I knew it immediately. Browsing through his work, I was blown away. His meticulous attention to detail is unmatched. He is an ARTIST of the highest degree. His website images don't do justice to the work- I don't think any picture of his work can do his art justice. You *have* to see it to believe it. I had a consultation with him, and shared with him images of things I liked, and things I'm drawn to, but mostly I wanted him to create it. Several days later, he sent me an image of what he came up with, and it was a slam dunk, just as I knew it would be. It took 3 sessions to complete, and it is a MASTERPIECE. I love the art on my forearm so much it's stupid. I get so much attention because it's so incredible. I even met Prince's band The Revolution, and they were blown away! Wendy and Lisa couldn't stop touching it! Anyway, you get my point, right? So here's another thing... Zulu himself is an amazing human being. He and I had the most wonderful conversations and now he's my friend forever. Choose Zulu as your artist and you'll have more than just a tattoo, you'll have a masterpiece.

    So this past weekend was my first experience directly under the hand of Zulu. Since we visited a…read morefew months ago for him to work on my wife's back, he and I have been in contact about what I've had planned for the remainder of the sleeve on my right arm. Because I travel for 6 months of the year the remainder of our conversations have been via email and also a 30 minute FaceTime consultation while I was overseas in place of a telephone call. Khani (shop mgr/wife) has done a wonderful job throughout of keeping the flow going and making sure that Zulu was available to discuss issues with me as needed. Zulu spent a considerable amount of time prepping for our arrival this trip as I had provided a number of different pieces of Tibetan art work to use for reference on my arm. After the FaceTime consult he fully understood what I wanted and that he was also given full artistic license to do what looked right and would flow with what I already had on my arm. He is only the second artist I've aver talked to that immediately got my concept and was genuinely excited about doing the work I was requesting. This was first obvious to me when we originally visited, but once we had talked and he started the work on the final design, the true light came out in Zulu. I arrived about 15 minutes early to the studio and just sat while he continued to collect his thoughts and worked to get the various pieces setup. We started with a fitting of the largest piece that would be done which was a full incarnation of Mara in demon form. Zulu only needed to resize it once and then worked on the angle and layout on my forearm (which is not big in any way) however, he laid it out to allow for the rest of the piece around and on the back of my arm. Once we had it fully laid out he applied the initial stencil for Mara and then he got to work. Zulu uses a rotary gun to apply his tattoos (as does Pinky which makes for a soothing sound in the small space). The beauty of this style of application is that unlike a normal gun that basically hammers you throughout the process, the rotary is more like a smooth flowing motion. When you add this to the extremely delicate touch that Zulu has while tattooing it makes for the absolute most pleasurable experience I've had to date. There was literally no pain until about the last 10 minutes of the session. We took a total of 4.5 hours to do all of the outline work for my arm, the detail in person looks unlike any I previously thought possible from a tattoo. His classical art training comes out when he works and his chair side manor is beyond reproach. The music in the studio is also spot on allowing Zulu to get into his groove and produce the beginnings of a masterpiece. I say beginnings because I can't wait to come back to finish the color and shading in November. Bottom line: if you want something that is truly a masterpiece on you as the canvas...than Zulu is the person to do it for you. There is no longer a need for me to search out an artist for my other projects, Zulu has a client for life.
