Studio 8

I arrived as a walkin customer during a short visit to Houston. I started talking to Shaine, the owner of Studio 8 about a Japanese inspired tattoo that I had wanted for several years. He showed me some of his drawings and I knew he understood exactly the style I wanted. I then explained that this was to be a cover-up and showed him the large dark upper arm tattoo that I wanted to go away. I really figured that the conversation would end there, but he shocked the hell out of me when he said "no problem, I'll just draw it directly on your arm". He told me his rate and we got started. I left that evening with a beautiful upper arm "sleeve" and plans for more visit's to Houston for more work.

Tell Shaine you want to see the photo's of "Gator's" cover-up and you will understand why I took the time to write this!

By far the most talented artists in Houston, no comparison in my opinion.

THE BEST TATTOO SHOP EVER! i went there for a cover up (of dark ugly black ink) and the guy was able to cover it with a pink and purple flower like i wanted. we found pics of the flower online, and he just drew it on me. he did a perfect job. the owner is the one who tattood me, and i will always go to him from now on. ps. you cant see that old tattoo at all anymore! very nice people there, and they have time to tattoo you! it was 250, for about a 5 * 5 color tattoo but it was worth it!

Go to this place! I did not know about this place until my friend recommended me to go here. (the place i wanted to go to got their times mixed up and couldn't fix me in) I went in and i did not have an appointment and the guy fit me right in. The place is clean. and the artists are nice and know what they are doing. It can be expensive, but you are paying for what you get. Which is excellent workmanship.

Go here! I got a couple of chest tattoos I had been wanting here. Shaine was able to make the stone looked aged, like weathered limestone - exactly what I wanted. These guys are really talented, I'll be going back for my sleeves soon.

This is by far one of the coolest looking shops I've seen. Very modern. I've had 3 pieces done there now and the place is very clean & relaxed. I couldn't be happier with the work!
