Friendly Staff Great Atmosphere Clean Environment

Jumped off the DART rail to check this place out after reading about it online. It was everything I expected. The people that work there are awesome and friendly. Music was bumping. Place is clean and big. I went in on a Thursday evening about 6:30 pm. I got a heart tattoo on my forearm. The guy that did it set up was nice. I will be back and spread the word about this place.

Relaxed Atmosphere Welcoming Staff Inclusive Environment Professionalism

First, the atmosphere was really relaxed. Second, the staff was very welcoming and chill. Third, I'm a hot mess trans woman fresh out of the closet, and they wasted no time asking how I prefer to be addressed (though in not touchy about it), which was a classy move that won't sin be forgotten. Lastly, David (my piercer) melted away my nervousness with conversation and professionalism, fantastic! I love my new ear holes!

Professional Staff Great Service Flexible Schedule

Awsome experience.Spoke with Billy Jack the owner who was very professional.Walked in last night with no appointment to get a cover up done on my neck and my girlfriend first time ever tattoo. They were able to start on hers right away but no one was avalable to do mine. All of his artist were busy and it was getting close to closing time.That's when Billy Jack worked his magic. I ended up getting my tattoo which was a cover up of a tattoo gun done by artist Travis, he nailed it on the money, not to say that we were there way after closing till 2 am we were the last ones there.Thanks for getting it done guys would definitely do business with this tattoo shop again.

amazing job exceeded expectations perfect lettering great work love this place

BillyJack is a beast!!! He did an amazing job on my arm. I went in thinking I was going to have a pretty cool tat on my arm plus get my son's name and birthdate done. He way over exceeded my expectations for the towers on the inside of my bicep. The lettering and spacing of my son's name was perfect and I couldn't have asked for it to be any better. Then he fixed up my existing tattoo of my unit patch (originally done very poorly by an artist in Dallas not affiliated with Artistic Encounters; cough**Dexter Borrowed Time**cough). I didn't think there was much that could be done with that tattoo, but BillyJack proved me wrong. I loved everything about my visit and got way more than I was expecting. Based on what I saw in my 4 hours there, I could tell that he ran a tight ship and held all of his artists accountable and would not accept anything less than perfect. I will only go here for my tattoos now and will trust anyone there to do great work! Love this place and can't wait to add more to my arm.

Amazing Experience Highly Recommend Will Return

It was an overall amazing experience, I went as a walk in but called before hand to check if that was okay! Once we got there we simply got the price ranges and they carefully explained everything. They did such an amazing job with me and the other 3 people I was with i highly , highly recommend! You will not regret it. Will definitely be going back.
