I went here for my first tattoo and before I even went in I was able to talk with John about what I wanted and what would look best. The tattoo came out even better than the inspiration photo and I love it so much! John was on time, the work station was clean, and he took his time making sure it was perfect. I would 100% recommend him!

I was explaining what I wanted when the guy stopped me and said someone else was going to help me, he said ”it’s not that I don’t wanna help you but..” I said “no problem” thinking nothing of it. Im thinking Beautiful day In Galveston, no bad vibes right? Another guy walked up and asked him “you don’t wanna help her?” The guy walks away and with his back turned he said “nope”
I was extremely uncomfortable and just walked out. Idk maybe he has a preference?…
Edit to response from owner:
The two men that you’re referring to, we’re not wearing face mask.. no biggie though.
You’re loss and absolutely terrible customer service. Jokes on you guys😬

One of the workers gave me a hug without consent, without wearing a mask either, and then proceeded to keep my ID when I decided not to get a tattoo done there because of their lack of professionalism. He will not return my ID. To clarify, I didn’t have an issue with the entire establishment, just the particular worker that greeted me. Also, when I get my license back I will gladly take down my review. Everyone but the person that greeted me was cool. Sorry for the confusion.

Whenever I travel to Galveston I always pick a new shop and get a tattoo, kinda like a permanent souvenir. But I think I've found my favorite spot by far! John boy did my tat and he did an amazing job and was super professional and sweet. The whole staff is hilarious and unlike a lot of other shops I've been to they aren't intimidating and rude. The shop is very clean and has a lot of "soul". Thank you guys for putting up with my crazy friends and I!! Next time I'm in Galveston I'm definitely coming to them. ❤❤❤

Had my ankle tattoo done by John Boy, I was super impressed with the work that was done. We went in on our honeymoon in June and my husband and I both got tattoos done and both turned out fantastic. Even with the wait outside due to COVID regulations it wasn't bad and we both left very happy with our work. I will say these guys aren't going to baby anyone and if you can't sit they're not going to make special accommodations for you but I kind of like that attitude in my tattoo artist.

John gave me my first tattoo today. He came in early to fit to my schedule, and did a fantastic job. He made me feel so comfortable about the whole process and I cannot wait to get more. 10/10 recommendation for this place and 10/10 for John being the tattoo artist. Also everyone in there is so fun to be around. Great people and great atmosphere.

Was in Galveston for the weekend and decided to drop in for my first tattoo. Was definitely nervous but the staff was super welcoming and funny which made me feel very comfortable. John boy did an amazing job on my tattoo and was super patient w me being a nervous first timer lol. it was overall a great experience, my friend went back the next day to get his done after seeing how mine turned out. Will for sure be back when I’m in the area again!

They are desperate for cash here. I wanted to change my time for a Tatoo but was not sure which day I could return so ask for my $60 deposit back. No signs anywhere to say it was not refundable. They just wanted to argue so I told them to keep it since they are so hard up for cash.

Great shop, great artists! Red did an awesome job on a complicated piece that took several hours. Will use again when I’m down on the island.

By far the best experience I’ve had in a tattoo shop, the other day I went and got a tattoo I’ve been meaning to get for months but just haven’t had the time because I work a lot and the tattoo shop I usually go to opens when I am at work and closes before I get off, I had got off around 10:30 or so and found this place on the internet but I wasn’t sure about it at first cause I had never been but all my doubts were blown away as I got a family members name on my arm! By far my new favorite tattoo it was done within good time and it is amazing quality! A bit pricey but affordable for a permanent tattoo but if you don’t have around $100 then maybe more should be saved up as my tattoo was $100 but I found it affordable because it was amazingly done and I can’t say beyond belief how happy I am with it, I have two other tattoos that didn’t turn out exactly right but this shop really gets the job done! Thank y’all so much for my new tattoo!!
