I got my first tattoo here a little over a year ago. Jelly was incredibly nice, and everything was so clean! Her work is phenomenal as well. I went back yesterday for my third tattoo and got tattooed by her new walk-in artist. He was AMAZING! My new tattoo is everything I asked for and more. He was also really funny, and I laughed through the entire hour and a half it took to do my tattoo. You will definitely be in good hands at this shop! I can't wait to go back for another tattoo!

Jelly is an AMAZING artist! After my first tattoo with her, I knew she would be the only tattoo artist I would use going forward. She is one of a kind. She can do the simple to the complex and I trust her implicitly. I cannot wait for my next tattoo with her. Highly recommend!! Thank you Jelly! 💜

JELLY IS 100% THE BEST!!
I had been wanting a Disney/Sleeping Beauty piece for a while now & finally found the right person for the job!
She was the only artist here in town that I truly felt like cared about the end result & tattoo I would be living with for the rest of my life!!
I told her the general idea of what I wanted & she COMPLETELY blew it out of the water with what she gave me!!
The fact that she was just as excited to tattoo what I wanted as I was about getting the tattoo made the experience SO much better!!!
I will DEFINITELY be going to her for any other pieces I get done!!
I have already sent her info to a few people looking at getting some work done & will always highly recommend Jelly & The Surly Skull for your next tattoo! Their level of knowledge & cleanliness is way above par!
Thank you again for the amazing work you did Jelly!

Absolutely love Jelly! Best tattoo experience hands down. She reworked a horrible tattoo for me and it is amazing! I have had a dozen compliments in the last two days :) Very professional, clean shop. Highest quality work I have had yet. Very private, comfortable studio. It felt more like a girls night out! I found my person and wont ever go anywhere else.

Jelly was absolutely great! She took what I wanted and far exceeded my expectations. The tattoo looks amazing and Jelly herself made the whole experience fun and comfortable. I'm not one to talk to people I don't know, but she had me talking the majority of the time. The place was so clean and she explained everything that she was doing. I will definitely go back!

I intentionally waited 2 weeks to write my review to let my ink heal and to wait for the Euphoria of a new tattoo to die down. With that being said, it was an amazing experience. Jelly was super knowledgeable and skilled and it shows in my tattoo and I had a wonderful time while getting she designing it and while it was being put on me. I couldn't be any happier with what she did and if i ever end up in San Angelo again I'll be more than excited to get another one by her or by Panda. Wonderful experience, awesome environment, super friendly, super clean and professional, couldn't ask for anything more.

I love the work Jelly did for me, and the touch up she did on an existing tattoo as well. The fine line detail is unreal and the color is perfect. I got the wonderful whimsical look I wanted to make this tribute tat for one of my sons perfect! I will be returning for both retouching old tats that need a fresh look, and to continue my tribute tats for my kiddos. Cannot wait to return and I highly recommend Jelly.

I have gotten tattoos all over the world while being in the military. Surly skull is by far the greatest experience I have had. Jelly’s work is incredible and something that I will be proud to show off for years. She’s got a light hand and an unmatchable attention to detail. I’m looking forward to working with her in the future. Highly recommend
