An employee of the shop contacted me and further defended the action of denying me service and accused me of "yelling" and throwing a fit. I provided supporting government documents that clearly outlines what they did was illegal. read more

I've had multiple tattoos done by Bella at Forsaken Tattoo. She not only has done a large piece on my arm with great shading and attention to detail, but also has taken my grandfathers handwriting and placed it on my skin with such detail. I'm covered in tattoos. I'm picky about who touches me. And I will continue to return to Bella in the future for more and more work. read more

If I could give this place a 0 star rating I would. I came in and the guy that did my tattoo totally botched me. The drawing looked good, but when he began tattooing he completely rushed it. This was not my first tattoo, so I am aware of the process and it seemed like he didn't care and just wanted to be over with the day. I gave him my idea and what I wanted, and he did none of that. I would not recommend to anybody. If you are looking for a tattoo this is not the place to go too. I also messaged the owner after leaving and he didn't even reply to me which was very unprofessional! read more

This place is great! my boyfriend got his first tattoos here and i also got my septum pierced as well. my only problem was the girl with the pink hair. she was being very rude to us. she said my boyfriend couldn't get his knuckles tattooed as a first tattoo because it would prevent him from getting a job. with me i wanted to get a septum and i let her know that, i mentioned i had 13 other piercings that weren't currently in but she got up on my face and said she couldn't see any holes where i said i had them done. but that they could do my piercing after my boyfriend got his tattoos done. then she really bitched at my man when he accidentally bumped into the chair. she was in the middle of the session but wasn't actively tattooing. and she said "you're gonna have to move over there" she was really fucking rude and did not have a welcoming attitude but that's cool. we overall enjoyed the tattoos and piercings we got and will be coming back for future ones. read more

From the time I walked in the door of Forsaken Tattoo's I felt comfortable. Everyone had on their mask, being safe & professional. I went two weekends in a row and Isabella did a great job on all of my tattoos. I was very impressed. One of my tattoos is the actual handprint of my mother (which has passed away), with her actual signature. Isabella did a great job! And I will definitely be going back for more of her awesome talent. I recommend Isabella for everyone to check her out! Thanks Isabella! -Stephanie O. read more

Worst tattoo I've ever gotten. Wish I remembered the artists name but the color is splotchy, outlines blown out. I'm super disappointed that I paid $250 for something I will definitely have to get fixed. read more

I got two tattoos done here about 3 years ago from Ian though I'm not sure if he's there anymore. He was an absolute joy to work with. Professional yet playful, chatted like we were old friends, and fair on pricing. The work was great too, he picked the lettering which I loved and the color was great. I wanted red but he suggested a deeper maroon color for my skin tone and was on point it looks awesome. No patchiness or gaps or fading in the color or shaky line work. The shop is spotless clean, which was a huge plus. Definitely will return later when I'm looking for more work done read more

Jared Luciano was the person who did my tattoo. This is not a professional place whatsoever. I wouldn't even call him a tattoo artist... I got this tattoo done a while ago and the tattoo PEELED Off... literally . THE TATTOO HAS A RANDOM BLOB OF ORANGE AND THE MIDDLE OF MY SUNFLOWER LOOKS LIKE A CATS ASSHOLE. I was upset and it was very overpriced for this shit you would call his "work." I contacted him and he was extremely rude to me and said that the tattoo falling off is natural for my specific skin color. (?!?!?!!) HUH???? I came back to redo it and he didn't greet me or anything he just said sit down, and started "fixing" this sunflower , or whatever the hell this is supposed to be. Pretty sure the the machine wasn't even clean or sanitized. Anyways, he redid it and the sunflower, which is still peeling off and the yellow is turning brown again, is giving me huge scabs. I have 6 other tattoos, no problem. I took care of it like I did with my other ones. And no other actual professional tattoo artists have said, "yea by the way you're tattoo will off because of you're skin color." I should've just stick with atomic tattoo. They actually clean their stuff and your tattoo will not peel off. I came to try this place because my co worker wanted to try a new place and hers is peeling off too. She has many tattoos and never seen anything like this. Like what tattoo changes colors and peels off and scabs and oh because of your skin color ?????? AND on top of that when I came into the store, it was filthy and there was a girl working that day and someone called and she was rude to the customer and Hung up the phone and was talking mad shit about the customer and all the employees were laughing , wonder if they do that to every customer. Anywho if y'all want this worst experience , a fucking terrible ass tattoo that peels off based on your skin color apparently, and want to have scabs and scars , come here and if you want a fucking more than worse experience and terrible terrible terrible customer service then ask for Jared ! :) might as well call it temporary tattoos because what tattoo peels off ? Like seriously . I did not want to write a bad review at all the first time I had it done so I waited to get it redone and waited after that , it's been two weeks since I've had it done and the same thing is happening . Definitely will never come back and will tell everyone how bad this place is . Very unsanitary place and rude people , they need to be shut done because this is not safe. And everyone's attitude alone just makes me not want to come back..... so sad THeres actual people who don't give a fuck about their job or environment they work at and just do whatever they want for money. Its a job, do it correctly if not they why tf are you here ??? read more

I am probably one of the pickiest customers a tattoo artist will ever encounter. I have had work done by both Josh and Ian. I will run out of room listing all the reasons why someone should get a tattoo at Forsaken. The atmosphere is very clean and comfortable. Also, this is also the nicest looking tattoo shop I have ever seen and is very customer friendly. My tattoo recently placed second in the large color category at a tattoo convention. I love these guys and will only refer my family and friends to these guys. read more

In awe of this place. My sisters and Dad wanted to get something in honor of our Mom that just passed away suddenly. Yogi and staff did EVERYTHING possible to recreate our Moms dove tattoo but also make it special just for us. They not only spent over an hour making it perfect, they added her script which brought tears to our eyes. Though we aren't able to bring our beautiful Mom back, we have her forever on our wrist. We can't thank y'all enough for the level of care and love that y'all showed us, it is forever in our hearts! read more

Had an appointment with Van, did an amazing job on my outline. Had a follow up appointment for the color and wasn't able to make it due to my wife being called in to work. Informed Van and he never returned my messages. Have asked for a makeup appointment several times and have gotten one message, saying I'm booked pretty solid right now. I replied, well when can you fit me in, I can basically come anytime. Have not received anything from him. 5 weeks now and nothing. I assume Van isn't interested in finishing this tattoo now. I understand I had to cancel an appointment, but I have in good faith tried to reschedule multiple times. Van refuses to finish my tattoo or return my texts or messages. Very disappointed in the lack of professionalism and understanding for his clients. Sometimes life happens and things have to be rescheduled. read more

I have over 100 hours of ink and this place rules. Super affordable, artists with over 20 years experience, and no wait. They also allow music requests. Super kid friendly, our daughter just played on one of their laptops. I'll be returning sooner than later to finish the outline that runs from my sacrum to my mid scapula. These folks are pros and they know what they're doing. They rule North Austin. read more

i was very happy with the initial piercing. bryan was super chill and professional. i received a septum piercing early february. around march, started to smell a little, i messaged bryan for advice and again, professional. he was helpful and responsive. i did what i was told and everything was fine. it didn't smell anymore, and i know i was cleaning it thoroughly enough now. however, as of last week the pain from my piercing gradually escalated day-by-day. friday night the pain became unbearable. i wasn't able to sleep. i texted bryan saturday and asked if he could remove it. i'm typing this at 12am monday morning. crickets from bryan. i went on saturday to atomic tattoo to have it removed and the girl who removed the jewelry for me immediately said that it was WAY too small and that she was surprised anybody would use that small of jewelry. i now have an indented nose from the piercing and burns on my nose from the jewelry causing that bad of swelling on my nose. i'm no longer in pain, thankfully. i just wish larger jewelry had been used and i didn't have to waste money on a piercing i took out so soon. i'll attach pictures. TRIGGER WARNING. the white stuff is Neosporin for the burns, which has helped. read more

Worst expierience ever! I've been to four different tattoo parlors in my life & I've never been treated so poorly before. So first of all, two out of the three tattoo artists were extremely rude, impatient, and unfriendly. I was being rushed to make a decision, mind you this is PERMANENT, I believe I have the right to take my time and figure out the placement and size of the tattoo. He attempted to charge me an extra $10 dollars because I was paying with debit, although my friend had just paid with a debit card and didn't receive that extra $10 dollar charge. That is no way to treat a customer. Definitely never stepping foot in this parlor again. read more

Me and my husband went in at the beginning of may and Yogi set us up for our appointment on 5/20/2021..He made us give a down payment to secure that day for us.The day comes,we go in at 1 since the day before I asked him if we could go a bit early and he said sure..So we go in and say we have a appointment with yogi to the guy at the front,He walks to the back with a card with yogi's number on it and says he had a emergency I don't think he will be back you can call to reschedule.i was so effing pissed..I know things happen..But no call,no text no nothing..I text him to try to reschedule and see if he's ok and this dude never text me back after 5 hours I had to text him and say can we just have our money back.and then he answers back saying yes he is so sorry blah blah blah..we were going to pick up our deposit money but then I don't even want to go in and see his face or anyone else in there.So he can choke on it..Also nobody in the shop was doing nothing but lounging around looking at us crazy..finally got our tatts done at atomic where they are so nice and professional..Do not waste your time at forsaken tattoo and if you do Don't go to YOGI!!! Complete WAIST OF TIME!!!!!!Hope you all have a great day.lol read more

Let me just start by saying that the tattoo I went in to get today is one that I've wanted for like 10 years. So, you can imagine how much this meant to me. I had seen Yogi's artwork online and in person and was hooked! I hit him up, he got back to me, we got excited about the piece and the rest was history. He turned my 10 year old vision into a reality and produced a piece I was truly excited to get!! The process from start to finish was professional, easy, and my artist stayed in contact with and consulted me throughout the wait time to make sure I got what I really wanted. The artists in the shop were so friendly and easy to connect with and really made it a fun time. Yogi was focused, professional, and made sure I was comfortable throughout the whole process. The overall experience was incredible! I will absolutely be back to see Yogi and everyone else at Forsaken Tattoo for future tattoos and piercings. Incredible artists/people, great experience from start to finish, and beautiful, quality work. What more could you ask for? 10/10 would recommend read more

Went in to get my tongue re-pierced and got a quick and friendly greeting. The piercer was a little quick to the point at first but was extremely professional and helpful. Made the process quick and painless, will definitely be back in the future! read more

Pretty sad. Back on Sept 3, I had a tattoo done on my foot, by the owner. The whole experience was great. He even told me - as artists typically do - to come back if I needed a touch-up, because touch-ups are included. I walked out of there with a great tattoo. Well, it didn't heal so well, which is sometimes to be expected, AT NO FAULT OF THE ARTIST - sometimes these things just happen. Today, on my birthday, my husband walked in, to see if he could arrange for me, a time to have it touched up and corrected. He was told that "feet never heal well" and that the artist could not see me as he was booked up until further notice. (I have two other foot tats - they healed up just fine and look brand new.) This tattoo - that I got in September - now looks like it ought to be my oldest tattoo, when in reality, it is my newest. I UNDERSTAND as someone who is relatively heavily tattooed, that sometimes these things happen. But the shop's unwillingness to correct the situation doesn't sit well with me at all. I am a professional performer and have appeared on websites and in publications dedicated to tattooed models. Unless they make an effort to correct this situation, I will NOT recommend this shop. I will, however, give them two stars, as opposed to the deserving one, as the initial experience was a good one. I have photos available upon request. read more

I love this place. I've been able to get to know these guys over the years and they have always done good to me. I've had several tattoos done here.

I had a really great experience at Forsaken. The facility was clean and equipped with everything you need to get inked. I was so fortunate to meet Alex (Ale_Cat) he is very professional and a very talented artist. It was very comfortable being there it was like hanging out with friends. They have other really good artist there that I was able to checkout Danny, Andres and Josh are amongst the talented team here. I will definitely come back and refer this shop. read more

I got my very first tattoo here. It was both a good and not so great experience. What I didn't like is the way the employees interacted. I realize tattoo shops are going to be pretty casual, and this being my first time visiting one, I'm probably not the best judge on them. However, the way the two employees inside talked to each other made me and my significant other uncomfortable. They were very crude and just seemed so unprofessional. My SO and I were almost going to leave because of how crass they were during the twenty minutes or so it was taking him to prepare to tattoo me. However, I give this place three stars because I love my tattoo very much. It's a pretty simple tattoo, but I'm extremely happy with it -- and that's the most important thing! read more

This place is the best! Very nice people with a lot of knowledge behind what they do! 100% recommend :)
