Went back for a second tattoo today. There is definitely some price gouging for sure. I was charged $20 for him drawing a stencil that was done within 3min and i no longer wanted the tattoo because I didn’t like it. And i was told it would be $120 for One letter in a tattoo (originally) then he lowered it to $80. But i still didn’t get it. He was kinda being a jerk. The tattoo i wanted was an intial ..just one letter. Ridiculous! But if you go here book with Billy he is awesome and way better!

Came in and saw Jeremy, he went straight to work on our scheduled appointment time and worked 3 hours straight with nothing more than a couple 10 second breaks. Jeremy provides crazy value for the art he produces. Everyone has assumed that my tattoo costs nearly twice as much as I paid due to the attention to detail he painted into my skin. Down to earth guy, good price, clean studio, attentive to me being a first timer, and provided me some stellar work. Couldn't recommend the dude more.

I was in Houston for a couple of days and I was dead set on getting a tattoo. So I call shops that in my area and get in touch with Catfish who agrees to meet with me the next day. We met up and I shared with him my ideas, and when I explained that I would be leaving Houston in the two days, he agreed to book me for the next day. When I came for my session, I was able to see how he improved my vision, and I have to say he not only nailed it but made it fit my personality a lot more. The details were perfect and he gave my tattoo an elegance and calm that I didn't know how to ask for. Now comes the time to get the tattoo. Now this was my first tattoo and I feel very lucky to have had Catfish be the one to guide me through that process. He was firm and encouraging when I felt like giving up, and soothing when I started to freak out. He reminded me to breathe and encouraged me until it was all over! It was a very emotional experience for me and I think he handled it very well while also give me a really dope tattoo. Overall it was a very good experience!

I have been tattoo here before but my review is for my last experience. I tried to get tattooed by Catfish. I paid the deposit and put money towards the tattoo. Only for him to cancel a day before and never reschedule. He gave some family emergency story. He hasn't bothered to reschedule and he don't responded to my messages. I should have read the reviews before paying him.

Great place, great environment, not much room for parking though.

My deposit was stolen and I never got my tattoo.
I scheduled an appointment a few months in advance with Catfish. He did the initial consultation super rushed. He accepted my downpayment. I scheduled my second appointment and he canceled the day before. He then was not responsible enough to reschedule, even after I called and text for at least three months straight. He basically took my deposit and left me without any tattoo or follow up. I won't be going back and suggest you stay away as well.

Billy Ho was great! He was able to take my idea (a bobcat paw print tattoo with the coat pattern from the bobcat) and work with me to create a tattoo that looks good, will last, and is readable (bobcat paw print with colors from her coat). Love it and look forward to adding more tattoos in the future.
