I followed Jeremiah from locally famous to royal avenue. This shop has such a welcoming atmosphere and all the other artists are very talented. I highly recommend Jeremiah though, he is awesome at turning your visions into realities. And for someone as indecisive and nervous as me, he truly captures exactly what I want. He's super kind and really great at communicating. Go get tattooed by him. read more

I have never experienced a tattoo or actual piercing only purchased a lip Neo Metal lip ring(straight bar). The jewelry is gorgeous, Only Neo Metal there and they have Opals, pronged Swarovski crystals... I was like in shiny body jewelry land. I can say that the one I got is pinkish opal but as you move, different views give off different colors. Also, They are different in different lighting i.e. In the case lighting, I liked the 2nd one in the row but when she slightly put it in the normal light they have, actually the 1st one is what I went with. They are also one of the very few studios 'near me in a 10 mile radius' & I live in a very active area of tattoo shops, 8 mins from them (Spring/The Woodlands area) that sell lip rings that are SIZED, not just gauge and I would be something off the wall 7/30ths of ..... I have NO idea LOL but my lip is not thick and I DO NOT like the ones that you accidentally bite down on OR you smile its a bar hanging out with a ball, etc... There were a handful but I was interested in this jewelry and it was super close and obviously here great review. She is so very nice, educational, she was gentle, just all around great open personality, This is definitely her calling :) Clean place and I comment on any tattoos because I have no idea, I can say I believe the ones there were all either doing drawing &/or pictures on their clients{maybe getting ready?} and then the others all had clients and working. So, that is good, some places you walk in and everyone is just posted up on the couch(s) watching TV. Oooops! I have the wrong place when I see that. I can say, I almost fell out when I heard pricing but so far, it has stayed in(which is always my problem) also the light weight, I can't even feel it. So at least I know it wasn't a LieSale lol and hopefully it is true that it will NOT come out, unless she gets it or I work really hard lol... OHHH... she does put it in for free read more

Ethan did an awesome job on both my wife and I. I am looking forward to going back real soon for another tattoo. Royal Avenue is definitely the place to go! Laid back and friendly! read more

Overall the place is really clean. The woman who does piercings is bad ass and I love her. There was a guy named Eric there at the time when I got my three tattoos and he is amazing. Not sure why he no long works there. There is one guy there though, can't remember his name but he's a skinny guy with glasses, he has no social skills and just looked like he didn't wanna be there. Other than that all my tattoos from there have come out amazing!! read more

No stars if I could! Drove over 45 minutes to be told basically can't do what you want but didn't really offer a way to do it. Tried to ask what could be done and the guy just kept repeating the same thing with out really explaining it. read more

The people here were cool, and helped me out. Got in around 5, and had a stencil on my arm by 6. Pruett tattooed my elbow and didn't do a bad job. I do believe I over paid for this tattoo due to the quality though. Like I said it's not bad but I wouldn't call it great either. The main thing I wanted was really bright blues and yellows to pop, but the blue is kind of bland and none of the yellow even shows up. I saw him put plenty of yellow in my arm but for some reason my skin didn't change. Im giving three stars because i believe it's a three star tattoo just because it's missing that wow factor I was hoping for. read more

I have been getting tattooed for over 15 years and this is the best tattoo shop I have ever been to. The staff is refreshing, respectful, and polite. My wife and I both have been tattooed here recently by Russ and Jeremiah and they both did incredible jobs. I highly recommend you check this place out. read more

My mom and I got our 2nd ear piercings and Ashely was amazing! She was so polite and kept the place clean, and she walked us through every step! If I were to ever get another piercing or get a tattoo, I'd definitely do it here! read more

Only because 1 star is the lowest I can give. It took them 4 fucking months to set up an appointment, they just forgot I requested one. When I finally got my appointment I drove an hour under the rain to get there, waited so long to be helped just for them to tell me that Russ wasn't there (the guy I had the appointment with), they called him and he said he hadn't schedule no appointments, really wtf??? I had show my email proving he had given me the time and date for the appointment. How informal! Never ever coming here again!!!! read more

Took my son to get his ear pierced. The cleanest studio I've seen in years. (I have 8 tattoos, so yes I've seen a few). The staff was extremely friendly and patient, and the experience for my son was the best I could have hoped for. read more

The piercing artist was condescending and yelled profanities when we came in to buy jewelry. Customer service was terrible, unprofessional and disturbing. She yelled "bitch" at me while I was on my way out the door after I had walked off. read more

Jeremiah is the best! I've gotten multiple pieces done by him (seahorse, octopus, black and gray half sleeve and a neotraditional back piece) and they are all incredible. I get asked daily about my work and where I go. He is incredibly professional, has great attention to detail, and always makes sure I am comfortable...could not ask for a better artist or experience! read more

Royal Ave Tattoo - Seahorse by Jeremiah! Amazing! - Tattoo Near Me - Spring, Texas

I'm in town visiting my cousin and I just decided I wanted a tattoo, she was asking me how many I have and we got into deep conversation about tats so that was it, my mission for the day! We went to this one place that she has been to before they were to open at 3pm, not open...we called no answer straight to voicemail left and came back and they were still closed...not a way to run a business...so I looked in yelp to see if there was one near her home in Spring...and found this place and I'm glad did!! Soon as we parked and got out of the truck we were greeted although they were taking a little cigarette break, he came asked what we were interested in waited a few minutes and ERIC came down and helped me out...very nice man told him what I wanted he free handed the picture in front of me got set up upstairs and blasted me in less than ten minutes!!! The shop was very clean everything was sterile I was very pleased with the ambiance...a lot of tattoo places are kind of gloomy and dark not here very bright and colorful...if you're looking for a good artist please ask for ERIC he's amazing and super nice!!!! My next visit to Houston I'm coming to see you again ERIC!!! read more

Giving one star because I have to. Totally blown off by Mike, who said he would work up something to show me so I waited around in the business next door. He never came in and when I went over to ask what happened was told he wasn't feeling it. He even lied and said he tried to find me but I was sitting directly by the door (drinking a club soda) and he never came in to find me. WOW. Being from out of town I was blown away by how unprofessional they were with the reviews they had. Must have been posts by friends. I'll go back to LA and give them My money and business. WOW. read more

It was kind of expensive tbhh but they're really nice and funny and make you feel comfortable & safe! I saw some of their work and it's really good. Very good quality :) read more

This place sucked. I got there and stood around while their to go order came in and they fed their faces. I was invisible until the I out loud asked if anyone could assist me as I was a customer. The owner somewhat blew me off and recommended me to whomever was next. Mind you I put in an appointment on their website the day before with no reaponse. The guy I was directed to said he couldn't make my tattoo look the way I wanted which I know is possible because I've seen it......not my fault he's not good enough. So the owner told me that "you're gonna have to wait a long time if you wanna get me bro". I said even if I threw three thousand in cash right now? And I'm serious, this has to be done before a funeral. They were just generallly inattentive attitude fucks so I left qyickly read more

If you go anywhere else for body jewelry, you're getting garbage. Don't settle for less than the best!!

Great place..cool artists..relaxed fun clean ass place..This is like getting a tattoo from a trusted friend or relative....Get your ass to Royal Ave tattoo and piercings!! read more

First tat at 56 and 2nd for my wife. Jeremiah is a master artist and gave us exactly what we wanted.. Russ, Ashley, and Jeremiah could give lessons to many businesses on how to get customers for life. Thank you and great luck in the future. Philip and Glenda read more

This shop has some of the nicest guys working there. I came in for a consultation & got an appointment the next day. The shop is very clean & they were always wiping something down. Everything was opened in front on me. Justin was my tattooist & was extremely nice. Always asked if I was doing ok (got a tat on my left upper boob ouch!). He was efficient & tried not to hurt me too much. Really nice shop! Go check them out!! read more

The staff was very rude and awkward. They made me feel like my questions were stupid and inconvenient for them to answer. They also over charge on piercings and tattoos. I won't be going back. read more

I came in Wednesday afternoon to get my cartilage pierced. I honestly have nothing but positive things to say about my experience. The entire staff is beyond friendly and Ashley the piercer is fabulous. I was a little nervous at first because it's a needle and it's going to be stabbed through cartilage. You know? But all of my fears and anxiety washed away as soon as we went upstairs to her room. She is so sweet and is very informative and professional. I didn't even feel it and it was over before I knew it. I am beyond over the moon with excitement. She really knows her stuff and I'm already wanting to come back for more. If you're wanting a piercing of any kind, you really can't get any better than the best and trust me, she is the best. Plus she has super cute selection of body jewelry. read more

Pruitt did my first ink. He did awesome! I absolutely encourage you to go in there with an idea, and let him put his spin on it. Instead of using a stencil or a print out to draw it, he free handed it. I didn't know if this was good or bad, but he blew my mind. I had some lettering done on my inner upper arm, and he took the font that I had picked out and made it far more intricate and detailed. Price was very reasonable, studio was clean and energetic, staff were friendly and funny. Great place. read more

Got the daith piercing. Everyone was super accommodating especially the girl who pierced mine. She took her time, made sure all was extremely clean and neat. Great experience!! read more

We came to get my 10year old daughter's ears pierced. It was a great experience. Ms. Ashely was fantastic. She welcomed us with a warm greeting and gave us all the information we needed before officially signing off. On the phone beforehand she did an excellent job letting me know exactly what needed as far as IDs and pricing. She was so sweet to my daughter, who was excited and a bit nervous. Nothing was rushed and Ms. Ashley took such good care of my daughter. She was a perfectionist about the placement of the earrings and after care. All said and done - we were very pleased. I encourage anyone to do their research - piercing/tattoo places tend to do a better job of ear piercing for young girls. The process caused less trauma to the ears. Thank you Ms. Ashley. We will be back to get my other daughter's ears pierced. read more

Casey is awesome he did an amazing job & was incredibly comforting.. can't wait to go back fo more! what a great artist!

I have had a quite a few friends recommend this place to me, and my husband has even had work done here with Jeremiah. I went for the first time today with a friend and I was blown away at how clean and well designed the shop is, and how incredibly nice all the staff is. Russ greeted us and spoke to us very kindly, we had a long chat with Ashley while our tattoos were being drawn and she is just wonderful. I could have talked to her all day long. Casey did both mine and my friends tattoo and he did a GREAT job. This will be the only shop I recommend to friends from here on out. Thank you for the great service! read more

Got my first tat here and it was good but then when I came for my second one and service wasn't as good. Girl that was at front desk told me it would prob be an hour cause no one was available (she was one of the artists) but then went and chilled in her car. 4 hours later got a text saying they were finally ready for my tattoo that would take maybe 5 minutes total. Also I emailed them off their website and got no response. Emailed an artist directly and got a response almost a week later. Went to another place and they gave me better service and a cheaper quote so js read more

I actually found this place on yelp and saw the high rating. I was not disappointed! Got a beautiful tattoo for a very reasonable price. I had Stevo do my tattoo, he was very nice, very personable, very professional. He made me feel comfortable. I gave him a very basic idea of what I wanted and he ran with it making my tattoo WAY better than I had hoped for. I would definitely recommend this place and STEVO to anyone looking for excellent work. THANKS! read more

This place was wonderful. Wonderful service. Great artist. Will update at a later time with pics of my work.

If you go here I do not recommend going to Kelsey rose. She is new to the shop and is NOT a good artist. My sister and I tattoos are crooked and it looks horrible. Not to mention tattoos are permanent! She also was having troubles with the needle to begin with. Also she was smoking a vape in the shop VERY UNPROFESSIONAL! save your money and go to a different shop. read more

I have to say this establishment is professional clean and all the artist are talented! I have been tattooed by two of the artist and they are professional and accomodating. The experience you deserve if it is your first tattoo or your millionth! read more

I had been looking for a recommended piercer in spring for a while. I am so glad I decided on royal ave to get my facial surface anchor done. Ashley's professionalism and expertise was above and beyond what I expected. It was a very quick and enjoyable experience. read more
