I was just looking at reviews for a piercer on another site for a friend, and realized that I have…read morenot reviewed Davis St. yet, so here I am. I love everything about this place. The owner, Mark, has tattooed my husband and myself many many times. We have referred both friends and family over the years and will continue to do so. Mark is a great artist and a stand up bloke. His shop is clean and inviting. They are professional and, just as Importantly , friendly!! Mark specializes in large Japanese work and nails it everytime. Don't worry tho , if you are wanting something other than Japanese his artists are all highly competent and established. Even my mum who lives in the UK waits until she visits Dallas to get her work. I took her back to Davis St last November and she is over the moon with her piece. Go visit these blokes, you won't be disappointed

Several years ago I had Billyjack do an improvement/cover-up to a tattoo I had got from a shop in…read moreNew Orleans. Then last week I went in for a new one. Neither of the designs were complicated or intricate...just some 3-5 inch ones. If you've seen Billyjack's Instagram page you know the man can do some pretty fabulous, complicated pieces so my stuff wasn't exactly anything that was automatically going to get his artistic juices flowing. And that's what I love about Billyjack. Even on when you give him a fairly simple concept, he'll make sure he makes it more and special. The most important thing he does in my opinion though is that he acts like a partner or a consultant, not just an artist who's going to execute the design you bring him. My experience down in New Orleans with the other shop was one where it was kind of like "whatever you want, man". I didn't need that, I needed a strong guiding hand and that's what I got with Billyjack. I threw out some ideas and he pretty much said what would and wouldn't work and then expanded on what would. Oh, and he's a blast to talk with. How many tattoos have you had where you and the artist have covered: dogs, kids (OK, those first 2 are pretty easy), rent relief policies during COVID and Roth IRA's. And laughing the whole time.

When I walked into the tattoo parlor, it looked clean, professional, and well put together. Based…read moreon the appearance alone, I felt confident I would receive good service. Unfortunately, that wasn't my experience at all. The artist who worked on me seemed inexperienced, and the process didn't match what I was told. What should have taken around 30 minutes was discussed as taking several hours, which already felt off. In the end, I was charged $200 for a cover-up that I'm extremely unhappy with--especially since it's on my face. To make matters worse, the artist didn't follow through on what was promised. He said he would work on two tattoos but only did one, and even then, it wasn't what I asked for. I specifically wanted a design resembling stitches, but instead I was left with a large black feather on my head that I deeply regret. The environment also felt unprofessional. The staff came across as dismissive and made me feel judged for the tattoo ideas I wanted, which added to an already negative experience. Overall, I left feeling disappointed, frustrated, and unhappy with both the service and the final result. I would not recommend this shop. Are there any tattoo shops in the area willing to help fix a bad face tattoo once it heals? I'm worried it might scar, and I'm trying to figure out my options. If anyone has experience with cover-ups or thinks removal would be a better route, please let me know. I'd really appreciate any advice or recommendations--this is something I'm stressing about and want to fix the right way. I'm not trying to bash the entire shop, because there seemed to be some talented artists there. However, I do want to warn others about my experience with one specific artist. The artist I worked with--whose name may be Ivan or Isaac--came across as confident, but in my opinion did not demonstrate the level of knowledge or experience I expected. For example, when I asked about certain techniques like blood shading, he didn't seem to understand what I was referring to. That raised concerns for me about his training and experience. Again, this does not reflect everyone at the shop, but based on my experience, I would personally not recommend working with that particular artist.

Amazing service. Quality work and chill vibes…read more They can do old school or new school styles. Ask for Jason! He's the best.

This is the second tattoo that Joe has done on my arm. His professionalism, patience and attention to detail made this experience worth every penny I spent. He was also very kind to offer me breaks in between the tattooing. While I declined them, I did appreciate that he was willing to take a pause for me. Once I save up some money again, I will return to see Joe! So what are you waiting for, I'm healing from my tattoo so now is the time to book a tattoo appointment before I need Joe again!!! Eat in Bishop Arts, have your little shopping spree but don't forget to see Joe!!!!!!!

PLEASE READ This…read moreshop is phenomenal, cannot recommend Death or Glory enough. I found this place here on Yelp in January 2019 and won't be going to any other tattoo parlor in Dallas. I personally get all my work done by Reid. But everyone that works here does fine work. First piece that I got done by him was the eagle and it came out great. Reid is super easy to work with. He always brings great ideas to the table and has superb solutions for tattoo ideas that haven't been finalized. You can tell he really loves his craft. Pricing is fair, I've never walked out of their thinking I paid too much. All in all if you're looking for a spot to get work done, YOU HAVE FOUND IT!

I believe tattoos should never be a fly-by-night act. I came across Rachel's page several weeks before deciding to contact her. From the first text until my appointment, she responded promptly and answered all my questions. My tattoo needed to be like I envisioned. Please do not quote me, but I believe Rachel's page indicates that she will reveal her version once you submit your ideas at the appointment. I said oh my goodness, don't bother her before then...., I'm that way sometimes! I was on my third artist/deposit. The other two artists were not checking all the boxes for me, and I needed feel completely comfortable with the process from beginning to completion. Upon arrival, Rachel politely described what she created for me before the reveal, I'm nervous....The artwork was beautiful and aligned with who she is as an artist, but after sharing more of my son's life during the appointment. I believed and felt she understood what my tattoo needed to be; our energy matched, and we went with my idea with a twist! Rachel told me the black armband is not her favorite ! The energy was on point and we worked out an amazing priceless armband infused with some my son's cremation ashes!
