Holy City Tattooing Collective

Amazing start to this cover up of what is going to be a future sleeve. Jason Eisenberg is hands down the best tattooist in Charleston. Honest and quality work.

Jason is a very good guy. Got my large back tattoo from Margo Venomous. Exceptional quality, very detailed, and beautiful color and design! She will be doing the rest of my tattoos!

High quality work and amazing atmosphere. Margo is literally the only artist I will go to. She has covered up all my bad judgement tattoos and literally turned my body into a work of art. Time flies while she works because she is so fun to talk to and be around. J'Adore!!

WOW! I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Darius Daniels!

Over our spring break vacation, my sister and I were looking to get matching tattoos. We did not have any idea where to go, so we looked at the best rated places in Charleston. We saw HCTC highly rated, and decided to give them a call. Luckily, Darius had a cancellation, so we were able to go in within the hour. The woman working the phone and counter was very nice, I wish I knew her name to give her a shout out. We showed Darius our inspiration photos, and he designed two pieces unique to what my sister and I wanted to coordinate. Each of our tattoos took about 20 minutes each. He had enough time for another piece before his next appointment, so he also did a flash piece on my brother in-law!

In full disclosure to aid in a complete review, the prices of the tattoos were $150, $150, and $160 respectively.

I would have never expected such amazing line work and an overall amazing experience from a walk-in appointment. It was a very positive experience and I wish I lived closer to see him again. He was very patient - as my mother was also in the shop - and he answered all of her questions about the tattooing process. He had a very upbeat and fun attitude, overall great dude!

The following photos are my sister and I’d coordinating pink promise tattoos, and my brother in-law’s skeleton fingers crossed tattoo.

My experience with this shop was first rate. They are fun loving, full of kindness, and world class professionals. The owner, Jason, is personable and shows a genuine interest in every person that walks through the door.

My tattooer, AshleyB, was brilliant, helped me make a great choice during the consult, and was able to get me in fairly quickly, despite her busy schedule. If you’re looking for an American Traditional artist, she’s excellent.

The shop is cozy and clean. In fact, I was impressed with their commitment to public safety and hospital grade sterilization & sanitation.

Lastly, HCTC feels like a “real tattoo shop.” Their vibe is unique and super rad. Flash sheets and art on nearly every wall. A gum ball machine on the counter for people wanting a quick flash piece. Artist’s designing tattoos on their iPads or putting fresh ink on their clients in every room. This crew is the real deal. Don’t gamble with the street shops around town - come here instead!

Very talented staff! On time and professional. Definitely a spot to visit in Charleston if you are looking to get a quality tattoo. Margo is the real deal!

My sister and I got tattoos together since we live so far apart. When we called to make the appointment we explained to the girl on the phone what we wanted. Before coming in we asked how much the price would be. The girl that answered expressed that it was $60 minimum, but not much more than that. All we got done was three words and after the session he charged us $120 EACH! I have tattoos with the same amount of work that have cost $80. When asked about the $60 minimum I’m and why it was $120 each he said the new minimum is $100. There was a sign sitting on the counter when we asked about it he said it was for a semicolon. When he was telling us how much to charge us he really had to think about it “$120…….. each”. The work was good, but they definitely take advantage of you.

Love this place! The artists are amazing, professional, and extremely skilled. The quality of work is worth the wait for an appointment. They take their time with their designs and customize it to fit your body in an appropriate manner. They will tell you if a piece is too busy, and make it work in your favor so that you’re happy and ecstatic about your new tattoo. Having their work on your body is a badge of honor and I love showing mine off.

Professional, friendly, clean, and safe. Best tattoo work hands down. Margo and Jason have worked on my husband and I for years. They are ,without a doubt, confident artits in their abilities to help with choosing placement and making each piece original and stellar.

Holy City never disappoints. Friendly and helpful staff, chill vibes, good music, beautiful art. Nowhere else in Charleston I’d rather go. 5 stars every time.
