Quality Tattoos Friendly Staff Great Experience

After setting a plan months in advance, my best friend and I made it first in line to First Class Tattoo Raleigh. The artist we wanted to see was Edgar and he does walk ins only. While we spent the whole day for these tattoos, it was totally worth it. The tattoo shop vibe is not intimidating, you feel welcome and Edgar worked with us to ensure we got the tattoos we wanted. Their front desk guard, Sonia, got us all set up for Edgar. Edgar is super nice and will even give you a few laughs along the way. Pair those things with some quality tattoos, it will make for an awesome Saturday! Thanks so MUCH!

Talented Artist Clean Shop Professional Staff Fair Policies Nostalgic Atmosphere

I have been going to Edgar for years for my ink. Not only is he incredibly gifted at his art, the shop is super clean and everyone who works there is really nice and professional. The shop has been getting busier since it opened up (not surprising, they are AWESOME) and their walk in policies are clear and very fair. An added perk: the insane amount of VHS tapes they have! It's always nostalgic to watch a movie the good ol' fashioned way while getting a tattoo done. I couldn't recommend Edgar and his team enough. They are the best!

Top Quality Tattoo Welcoming Atmosphere Positive Experience

I cannot express how happy I am with my experience at First Class Tattoo. I had been wanting a cover-up tattoo on my ribs for a long time, and when I met Edgar and the rest of the crew at First Class, I knew I had found the right place. My new tattoo is exactly what I had envisioned, and I am beyond grateful. In addition to the top quality tattoo, the welcoming and hospitable atmosphere made for a positive and memorable evening. Thanks Edgar and team!

Professional Personable Accommodating Genuine Great Work Clean Shop Great Prices Unique Designs Great Experience

Girlfriend and I got walk-in pieces done by Edgar. He was professional, personable, accommodating and incredibly genuine.

I got a little faint half way through my tattoo and he immediately stopped, grabbed me a Red Bull and made me a PB&J to get me back on track. He did great work and I felt like I was really looked after when I was there.

The shop is clean, the prices are great, the artists are great, even the other clientele were great. Edgar even reworked an already existing customer piece into something new and unique for me.

Great overall experience. Can’t see myself going anywhere else now.

Excellent work Incredible artwork Walk-in availability

My husband and I have both been tattooed by Edgar a couple of times and we LOVE him and this shop. Excellent work- he listens to your design ideas and comes up with incredible artwork. Mark’s work is also great and they have a new artist too! Love their walk in availability- just know you have to be there early to get your name on the list for walk-in’s. 10/10 recommend this shop!

Talented Artist Passionate Staff Great Service

This is my go to shop in Raleigh. Mark has done four pieces for me. His talent is amazing & he cares for it to look good.. he takes his time, proper placement & sometimes adding something to give it balance. Edgar did my last walk-in tat, it healed great. I love this shop & the passion they clearly have. It’s amazing to see a shop grow the artists, seems it’s not common anymore these days. ❤️

Great Experience Highly Recommended

I got my tattoo here late last year. It is a very small sentence using typewrite font on my inner bicep. I must say, the longest part of the entire experience was just making sure the placement was right! After that, Mark went to work and he was done in under 45 minutes. He told me everything I needed to do, and my tattoo has healed beautifully. There has been no bleeding of the words (so far) and I highly recommend this place for whatever tattoo thought you might have! They do it all. The place is small, but very welcoming. 10/10 would come back again!

Amazing Job Great Staff Top Notch Atmosphere

If I could give this more than 5 stars I would. Edgar was referred to me twice for fine lines and did an amazing job!! I did a walk in, the staff was so sweet and they made sure to get me in. The atmosphere, music, and cleanliness was top notch. I will be coming back here for all future tattoos.
