Tita tattooed a maple leaf for me and it is literally perfect. The detail is so great that it almost looks real on my arm. I'm so pleased, what a great first tattoo to get in Austin! Will definitely be back for another. If you want quality, this is the place to go!

I should have paid more attention to the reviews about the horrible customer service and being overpriced. Hindsight is 20/20. I first met with owner/artist Kyle on 7/11 about the custom forearm sleeve I wanted. He quoted me $900 for 2 sessions. The first session was for the lines and the second for shading. Even though he was the second most expensive of the artists I had consulted with, I knew the inflated prices had to do with what he perceived as fame from his couple of magazine features.... plus I wanted to support a minority small business. I proceeded to book the appointment even though he couldn't start until 8/26. He requested my design ideas via email so he could have the sketch ready for approval when I arrived for my appointment. Despite the severe weather caused by hurricane Harvey, I make it to the appointment. The first thing he says is "I thought you weren't scheduled until later.". Then he tells me he has to draw up my tattoo. He was so unprepared. He even asks for my information again so he could search for everything I had sent via email. Since the weather was so bad, I decided that I would wait. After 2 hrs he comes back with only 1/4 of what we had discussed. He said we would line that portion and line the rest during the second session. He went on to say that there would be a third session for shading. Having waited so long, I just wanted to get it started. The second session was scheduled for 9/12. I arrive for my appointment only to realize that he had sent a text 30 minutes prior cancelling the appointment. I live out of town plus I work nights. So I got up in the middle of the day and drove to the shop for nothing. Anyone living in the state of Texas knows the law as far as driving and cell phones.... especially in Austin. So to this day I am unclear on how he expected my phone to be riding shotgun so that I could receive his last minute cancellation. I emailed him and replied to his text. He never responded to either. I called 3 days later since it was clear that he had no intentions of rescheduling. His only excuse was that 9/15 was his first day back and he had only been in the shop for 4 hrs and hadn't done call backs. Even though I got hustled for $550 for an outline of 1/4 of the tattoo, I cannot support such egregious behavior. Don't pay attention to the friends he gets to write reviews. Pay attention to actual customers. There is a reason why the shop was empty every single time I went. You have been warned.

Excellent custom work at a great price- was fast and efficient. Extremely clean studio (which is very much appreciated) and minimal fuss. Best review to give is to say I had $900 worth of extensive custom work performed and am returning for more next month.

I have some existing tattoos that I wanted to bring together. Chris Hedlund was able to create a masterpiece. I have been to numerous tattoo shops and Chris was the first to be able to help. The first half is completed and looking forward to finishing it up in three weeks. Great art work and fantastic job... looks awesome!!!!

It’s very clean and professional. Me and 2 other guest got front row seats watching a tattoo be done, it was awesome. Great photo books in the entrance to see what the different artists have to offer. Not too expensive either.

They were clean, professional and talented. My tattoo came out even better than I had hoped! My artist was Kevin Daniel and my friend's artist was Josiah. I highly recommend them!

Luisa was amazing! I was a walk in for my first tattoo and I had a great experience with high quality work for a solid price. Excellent lines and good conversation and guidance.

I've known Kyle for going on 12 years now, I've been his canvas for 7. He's the only artist I let draw on me, but I know his judgement and he only chooses the best to back him. If you don't already know who he is from his great performance on best ink, then you need to know who he is by his great performance on you. Come on down to the shop, get pricked, and love your ink for the rest of your life
