    This is my wolf paw tattoo that david did for me just the way I wanted it.

    The atmosphere is incredible and Davied is super awesome. I was in his shop to get my first tattoo and I loved how he took his time no rushing or anything. I will definitely be going back for more. Very very happy with his work.

    Do I need an appointment for a nose piercing or can I walk in?

    I dont do piercings. But thank you. 😎

    What's the minimum starting fee/hourly fee?

    It varies. It all depends on what your looking to get and what kind of time your looking to put into it.

    7 year old got her first earrings. Not a tear, not a wince. Dave is great with everyone.read more

    "Looking better coming out than you came in"…read more I have had my snake bites done twice by two other different piercers. Dave was by far significantly better than both. It was painless, NO swelling which is unheard of, and fantastic placement. The aftercare was thorough and detailed which was different than the others. I actually know how to take care of it now! Keep in mind, if you want a piercing and he thinks it would look wonky, he will let you know as a professional if it would not be complimentary to your face. He was honest about how the piercing would look the way I wanted it which was appreciated though disregarded (I wanted them more towards the outside of my lips rather than more inward). I don't get the attitude issues that other customers have, but personally I would take a grumpy piercer (which he was not) that knows what they're doing and gives me the best quality piercing ANY DAY over an overly bubbly and nice incompetent piercer that will have my piercing reject (wasting my time and money), be very painful, or heal improperly. I will recommend this dude for piercings forever and ever. Badass playlist too. I was raised in atx and around the punk rock community a lot, the place has that vibe to it. It's professional but also had that rock and roll essence to it. I wouldn't go to a piercing shop that didn't have that authentic culture in it, especially if my piercer didn't have piercings of their own. It's a good sign. If those type of people and places make you uncomfortable, bear it. You're getting metal in your face, those are the people you want doing that. Trust. 10/10.

    This is a VERY no frills place. The entrance space leaves much to be desired, but I guessed that…read morethat's why this place is inexpensive. Also, contrary to Yelp, this is a cash only place. No cards. Theo, the tattoo artist, was really cool and nice! As a person, and even as a professional, he was very personable. However, my tattoo didn't come out symmetrical. Lines weren't straight, and the image looked slightly different on one side compared to the other. I came in with the tattoo, printed out (so perfectly straight and symmetrical), they made a trace; it was VERY simple. They put on a stencil and everything, but for some reason it didn't come out perfect. Given that all he needed to do was trace and fill on a simple area of the body (back of neck/back), I found this unacceptable. Theo has no problem touching up tattoos for free, but given that he didn't get this simple thing right the first time, I don't have any confidence that he can fix it a second time. I'll be going somewhere else to hopefully have my tattoo evened out without leading to too much distortion of the original image. I suggest going somewhere else EVEN for a simple tattoo, unfortunately. I thought mine was too simple to mess up for an experienced artist. I was wrong. However, if you ARE interested in a friendly person, talented illustrator (maybe not tattoo-er), and are strapped for cash (this cost $40.00), Theo would be a decent place to try your luck. I can't in good conscience give anything above 1 star because this was simply too easy to have received anything less than perfection. Had I known this was how it would look, I would not have gotten this tattoo. I would have kept my skin bare.

    It was a little ghetto and the guy was being a little impatient to get my tattoo the way I wanted…read morebut it came out perfect so not terrible , just the artist everybody else in the shop had good customer service and very nice.
