Good to know before you book

  • Fine-line and micro work here demands a clear reference — bring high-res images and expect a short consult before the needle.
  • Walk-in availability isn't always posted online — a quick phone call is the fastest way to know if they can fit you in today.
  • Calendars tend to book several weeks out — reach out as early as possible if you have a target date.

At 11:30 last night, I decided I wanted a tattoo. It’s been a rough few weeks, to be honest. So I decided to get something personal to me. A popular Puerto Rican saying. So I looked around and found Inkling studio. I knew the risk of getting a tattoo so impulsively, but I made my decision. I was gonna do it. Two and a half hours later, thanks to Sneker, my tattoo was complete. Dare I say, it’s my favorite one so far. Sneker had every right to question my intentions for coming in after midnight on a Sunday. Instead, he was patient, offered insight and advice on the tattoo design and created a clean, precise vision of the tattoo I wanted. I want more tattoos. I’ve been to a few other spots around Dallas. I didn’t really have a loyalty to any artists around the city. That changed at about 1:30 this morning. Thanks, Inkling Tattoos. Pa’lante.

Sneeker was my artist, super kind and easy to talk about my ideas. Added to my previous tattoo, freehanded and he made it look cohesive. Definitely recommend checking it out!!

I wanted to get a small tattoo without an appointment and found this shop online. Sneker was my artist and he did a great job. He was polite and listened to what kind of design I wanted. The shop was clean and prices were reasonable. I will be back and I would recommend this shop if you are looking for good service and experienced tattoo artists.
