First off, let me just point out just how impressed I was with their building. Most other shops I've visited look ehh and are usually in crowded lots. Also, I love that they have a sign out front with their name on it instead of just "Tattoo". Inside the shop is clean and open. I love that they have tattoo books for you to browse through as well as their art displayed on the wall. Chase was meticulous with detail and took his time doing each one of my pieces. He's also very nice and I felt very welcomed upon being greeted by him and the other artist there. I will definitely be going back for more!

Awesome service with Juan, was able to do a medium sized arm tattoo same day as a walk-in. The shop…read moreitself has it's own charm/aesthetic which is really cool, seems like they recently moved locations so if you use lyft/uber like i did make sure they have the right address. Other thing to consider it seems like some of the artists are still training as they asked my artist for tips/techniques; so depending on what you are trying to get done you may have to wait for someone that is comfortable doing it. Though everyone there was friendly and had the right attitude so i would definitely recommend checking them out!

I came on a Friday afternoon as a walk-in (around1:30). I was seen by Jason immediately who spent…read moreabout 20 minutes with a friend and I talking through our options. He was very informative and even provided feedback on best looks for certain types of piercings / jewelry, given the locations. I was very happy with the feedback and even changed the piercing I had in mind while discussing. I'm very happy with my results! The piercing itself took less than 5 minutes. Jason got everything sterilized, had me confirm the location, and then we were done! It was barely a prick of heat by the time the piercing was in. I'll be back! Parking is available around the side and back of the building. The jewelry is very nice quality with assortments of hypoallergenic metals to choose from.

I knew I wanted to get a new tattoo while visiting Austin, but I wasn't sure where to go. I'm much…read moremore comfortable with laid-back tattooists than I am with the super-intense ones who can often be intimidating. The tattoos I generally seek are quirky, one-off designs that are deeply personal, but not the full-sleeve or intricate Japanese work that a lot of shops specialize in. After looking at a lot of websites and reading a lot of reviews, I chose Mom's Tattoos and I'm glad I did. It's exactly the kind of place I like, with a relaxed vibe and incredibly friendly artists. I had a specific drawing I wanted replicated that looked deceptively simple but was in fact very challenging. I couldn't have asked for a better result than the tattoo I received by Roach. His artistry is top-level. On top of that, he's an incredibly nice guy. I wholeheartedly recommend him, and Mom's, for anyone looking for a welcoming, top-quality experience.

If you're trying to get a big piece, you need to find an artist who knows what they're doing. The quality of their work definitely shows in their tattoos. Rebecca is a great artist and works fast! I was so surprised at how fast she finished my tattoo. We were able to get it done all in one session (3 hours, 45min), and she was about to be due in 2 months. When she had first showed me the design, it was smaller than what I had wanted and she was able to freehand a peony flower bud on the top to elongate the tattoo. Thank you Rebecca!

I have a VCH that was done at another studio several years ago. The end ball fell out and I went…read moreto GG for replacement jewelry. I had to purchase their only jewelry offereing, which was expensive - $45 - and I was fine to pay for high quality materials. When wanting to purchase, I was told to wait so the piercer could replace it. The piercer spoke only of who did it, why the metal was junk and why it was that length. I took his recommendation for replacement. He it was brusque and slightly disgusted. Upon checkout, I was charged a piercing fee as well as jewelry. Over 100 bucks when I just needed a replacement ball. Fast forward a few months - the expensive piece fell out and I wanted to replace it with the same high quality materials. I went against my instincts and went back to support local business and artists. I was "informed" that they would have to order it as they do not recommend that piercing at all. I was told of the dangers of migration and tearing - and again heard an opinion about another studio and how bad an idea that piercing is.
