Iron Rite Tattoo South

If you're not getting tattooed by James, you're missing out. I've been getting tattooed by James for about over 10 years now and his work holds up. His pricing is fair, I'd even say he could charge more, but he's a humble dude. I'll ALWAYS go to him and I'll ALWAYS recommend him. Tell me otherwise. If you're on the fence, schedule a banger with him, see for yourself.

The building is clean, welcoming and full of talented artists and art.
Robin the owner helped me get scheduled after I sent an inquiry via the internet. She responded almost immediately! I was shocked at her professionalism and promptness.
I got there and the the staff was helpful and was willing to put up with me regarding my simplicity and lack of vision. I liked that my artist wanted to be sure I didn't scar beyond the tattoo. She was super nice, gentle and FAST.
A little/lot pricey, for what I was asking for but worth the time, conversation and the offer for free filling of my tattoo when I'm back in the area.
I traveled from MI to TX and I'm glad I made the decision to treat myself for my birthday.
The customers I chatted with were even amazing lol
I would recommend and I will be going back

James Dupper is my go-to tattoo artist! He’s been doing my tattoos for 5 years now and he never fails to amaze me! He’s very dedicated to please and accommodate his clients, and the pure craftsmanship of his work is phenomenal. A man full of talent and grit, you will never have to dread the process of tattooing with him; it’s rather stress-free and relaxing (at least for me). I encourage you all to go to Dupper and set those tattoo appointments/walk-ins immediately! The passion and care is represented through not only his work, but conversations as well.

I love this shop! It’s clean. The artist are always super welcoming and friendly… I’ve been getting my tattoos from Johnny. Every time I leave I’m stoked and eager to come back to get more. He’s made all the tattoos I’ve wanted WAY better than I could expect.

I LOVE this shop! It’s an amazing atmosphere to be tattooed in, and everyone there goes above and beyond to make sure you are completely comfortable while getting tattooed. They are ALWAYS accepting walk ins, and everyone there is amazing and incredibly easy to work with. Cory is my go to artist and he’s amazing! Every time i get a new tattoo people consistently ask me who my tattoo artist is and what shop i go to. Marcos is always working the front counter or working on his apprenticeship when I go in and he is so professional and kind, he is always running around helping in some way if he’s not busy tattooing, himself! The employees at the shop really make you feel like you’re a friend while you’re in there. They know how to have a good time and ENJOY THEIR JOBS while also putting out amazing work! Everyone in that shop is PASSIONATE ABOUT TATTOOING and stupid talented!

Both of my tattoos came out amazing!!! I went to Melissa for my husband & I to get a couples tattoo & then a few weeks later to Daniel for some amazing floral work, they both are fantastic and great to chat with, just overall such a great group of people. I will always come to them over any tattoo shop in the area ❤️

I did a lot of research and landed on Iron Rite for the traditional tattoo of my dreams. Daniel did my piece and he is my go-to tattoo artist now for the future. So accommodating with my indecisiveness, very attentive to detail, and also just a really nice guy - everyone at the shop is so nice! I felt comfortable through the whole process and I’m absolutely in love with this piece.

I have been to several different tattoo places. I’m kind of impulsive and I don’t like to wait. Not a lot of artists were willing or interested to help me out with my designs. I went to Iron Rite and met with James. He did not hesitate to help me. The experience has been next level perfect. The staff is great, friendly and very customer service driven. James takes his time to understand what you want and does an amazing job. Within 2-3 months I’ve already received 3 great tattoos from James and I’m scheduled back for more to finish my sleeve. I’m very happy to have stumbled upon Iron Rite Tattoo. Brooke in the office is on top of getting appointments set up and if there are any cancellations she updates me to get me in sooner. I highly recommend this place and these artists.

I worked with Daniel who was so nice and professional on top of being an amazing artist. He worked with me to get combine my ideas into the image I had created in my head and he refused to settle for anything less than perfect. From beginning to end I was at the shop for almost 5 hours but it didn't feel like it and would've gladly stayed and hung out for longer. The best part was the gorgeous art Daniel brought to life for me which is now my favorite and most well- done piece I've gotten!

My fiancé and i came by for friday the 13th tattoos and the wait was worth it!!!! everyone in the shop was amazing, both in the work they do and the way they interact with customers!!!

The colored one was done by Cory and the the black line was done by Johnny!

They were helpful, funny, talented and efficient in the work they provided!! we love the new tattoos, would highly recommend and will definitely be back!
