    Me and a couple of friends were going out on Sixth Street on a Friday night when we walked by this tattoo shop. It was until 2am and located in the heart of Sixth Street, I think they knew what they were doing with this. One of my friends goes "Let's get a spontaneous tattoo!!" and so we ended up going in. There were only a few people ahead of us when we walked in so it was about a 15 minute wait for two of us. They accept both walk-ins and appointments. I wanted a rocketship tattoo for a while but I wasn't really sure what specific design I wanted. They were super helpful with the whole idea process. This was my first tattoo so I didn't really know what to expect and I hate needles with a passion. My tattoo artist Bobby made the whole experience great and made sure the process went well for me. He also gave me really useful tips for aftercare. I definitely recommend this place if you're a first timer or if you're just looking to add to your collection. The place was kept really clean and the service was awesome.

    Some of the work.

    From the moment I walked in I felt welcome and heard. The manger at the front walked me through the process and pricing for what I wanted and introduced me to my artist. He was just as amazing and my work came out great.

    Skateboard tattoo around Achilles tear
    Yelpulus, God Of Reviews ..

    What a wondrous establishment of ink! I'd originally adjourned to All Saints Tattoo a stones throw across the road, but their prices were dubious. Nearly $100 above that of this fine place! Upon entering the Sacrament, I was immediately struck with the awesome feeling of being in a true craftsman's hall. Adorned with unique arts and Zeus's own view into the working tables, I was set at ease. My piece was crafted in minutes and I was laid down gently to be the canvas to permanent quill. I had attempted to ride a mortal's "skateboard" and ripped apart my Achilles Heel (a common ailment after Achilles brought the weakness upon us Gods), so I had Sacrament's masters paint a broken board abreast my scar. Painless (presumably for mortals) and speedy, I was painted and the debt was paid in under 60 minutes.

    Tattoo #2 by Chris Drts: Completed in one session (a little over 3 hours of work).
    Matt W.

    I had the good fortune to work with Chris "Drts" Aragon on two separate pieces in the last two weeks (3 sessions; over 10 hours total), and man did he deliver! With 17 years of tattooing experience, I'm confident when I say there isn't a tattoo Chris couldn't do and do well. He's a hell of an artist who will work with you every step of the way, on details big or small (layout and design; color decisions; shading style; line weight, etc), in order to ensure the tattoo you get is exactly what you want and your experience is a good one. As for the shop, it's super clean, and everyone on staff is incredibly friendly. If you have an idea, give Sacrament a call or check out the artists' work and hit them up directly. You won't be disappointed.

    Design I wanted

    I got my first tattoo ever here as a walk-in, and I regret getting it. The color was very blotchy when I first got it, and the artist forgot to add the depth detail (where it was supposed to be shiny). I asked for a touch-up. The artist was very receptive and understanding -- he offered to do it for free. After the second session, my tattoo is still blotchy and uneven. In addition, I now have an unwanted tattoo scar that probably won't go away. The artist was super cool and personable; But I had to drive 4 hours from a different city for a touch-up and still have an underwhelming tattoo and a tattoo scar. I will be scheduling a rework with another artist somewhere in a few months, but she advised that the scar probably will be there for a long time.

    If you're looking for a good tattoo shop in Austin Texas, look no further. I have gotten a couple great pieces from Hunter Wilson at Sacrament tattoo. The location is convenient - downtown on sixth Street, the shop is clean with some great tunes bumping, laid back vibes and even better artwork. I cannot recommend Hunter Wilson enough. I'm looking forward to coming back to get more work done. Do yourself a favor and stop in for your next piece.

    My brother and I were walk-ins wanting to get matching tattoos, and they were so awesome about getting them drawn up so quickly! Dolly did mine and it turned out freaking BEAUTIFUL and I'm obsessed with it!!!

    Keana C.

    Called in, but due to COVID-19, they were limiting the number of people in the shop. We called a couple of hours later and a few people were done getting there Taft, so we just decided to pop in. Elmo was the only one working, and luckily he was able to take us as the last customer (which was nice, so he didn't have to rush). Honest and welcoming. Appreciated his thought towards our ideas on our tattoos. My sister and I love our tattoos and wouldn't mind coming back next time we're here.

    My brother and I were visiting from Miami and came to get tattoos right before heading to the airport. Cory, was very nice and helpful and got us in and out in time to catch our flight. My brother got a tattoo with Jacob and I got mine with Bobby. First class gentleman. Salute!

    Tatoo

    I came with a reference to show to them, something big, but very easy to make. I have friends who do tattoos and all of them told me that any decent tattoo studio would do that pretty easy since que draw is pretty basic, just big dots and thick lines. So the guy in charge introduce me Pablo who was the guy who did my tattoos (one and each arm). The guy didn't do the dots circular like they had to be, he didn't do the lines straight and with the same wide it should be, he put so much strength that the ink went to over the traces. After that he put so bad a plastic to protect it that came out less that an hour after I left the studio. And it was double the price I would pay in a decent studio where my friends work

    It's supposed to read "flor del desierto"

    Not at all happy with how my tattoo came out, it's blotchy, crooked, and the font is ugly. Super disappointed considering how painful and expensive it was. Maybe it varies by artist but highly regret getting tatted here.

    Michelle L.

    I got a tattoo done on September 24th of 2020 and I'm very disappointed on how it turned out i remember the session being particularly painful but not thinking much of it as you can see on the picture I have scarring and blowout I don't know how to get this fixed, I've tried to reach out to the shop a couple of times through the phone but haven't been able to talk to anyone my husband got the exact same tattoo in all black and his is perfectly fine. If anyone can help me with a way to fix or deal with the scarring I would appreciate it

I booked my appointment for Saturday, Dec 13 but due to leaving late from home was late. They slotted me in right after the appointment that was originally after mine and it took less than 5 minutes. Anna was a fast whiz!! It was also pretty busy in the morning with groups and friends and couples continuing to check out the earrings on display for sale as well as asking about appointment availability. I'm grateful that they didn't tell me I was *too* late! After my downsize, I was in the mood to get a piece of fashion jewelry (specifically a huggie) for February/March when my first piercing ever (lobe) is ready for it. The girl helping me out recommended a twinkle silver one that she also owns. Plot twist: I came back the next morning (Sunday) after a night of fun knocked out my left piercing. I found the backing, but not the stud. The same girl was working so I laughed about it with her and she said it's not common but also they were willing to fix it/replace the jewelry for free based on their usual warranty. Laos worked on me this time & was super willing to share their knowledge about piercing care!

They rarely offer walk in appointments, so I recommend securing an appointment online before coming in to get pierced. Depending on the location, they only offer piercings if you're 18+. You can get a max of two piercings per visit. Pricing: $35- one piercing + cost of jewelry $50- two piercing + cost of jewelry $10- saline spray Piercing jewelry can range from $30-130 per earring. All their piercing jewelry is implant-grade flat black labret. Kels was super patient and accommodating, she knew I was nervous and took the time to assure me that the pain is bearable. They have stress balls if you need it. Pain tolerance varies for everyone, but I was surprised my helix wasn't as painful as I thought. I would compare it to a flu shot! The worse part is placing and tightening the jewelry. After a few months they have a free check up appointment where you can switch your flat black to a shorter post. I had a very positive and fun experience, I might come back again to get a conch or tragus after my helix is completely healed.

He went out of his way to take on my unknowns and worked with me to make what I wanted happen within the constraints. The previous shop I had tried (that took walk-ins) gave some excuse to me why they wouldn't do it. It was 2pm. - The shop itself is one of the most tenured in Austin, and is decorated to reflect that. I think they said they'd been there at least 27 years which is crazy to me coming in to get this done on my 24th birthday, meaning they've been tattooing longer than I've been alive. - The process that they used to draw was considerably more painful than previous shops I've been to, but I'd prefer someone using tools they're comfortable and familiar with rather than inexperience. - Only complaint I have is only taking cash, I had thought of that but used most of the cash i had on the previous artist from the day before. (They have an ATM inside, but does not accept tap.) - Overall the final result was exactly what I wanted given the constraints of the limited remaining real estate space on my arm. I was very impressed by how Burke developed creative ways to get me what I wanted while still keeping the overall design fluid. Definitely shows the 25 yrs of experience. Even if there's slight imperfections, that's what makes tattoos unique to you. It's not supposed to be copy/paste, as long as you're happy with it and it represents what you want it to, it's a job well done. I would definitely recommend their shop!

For the quality of the service, their prices are very reasonable and they have many many jewelry options and are happy to recommend other options that will work for you if they arent carrying something specific youre looking for. Unfortunately, I have had a negative expirience with one of the piercers. Pineapple, Jade, and Mercedes have all pierced me at different points. Around 3 years ago Mercedes pierced my verticle labret, and it turned out beautiful. Unfortunately I had to take it out because of a surgery after a few months, and once I recovered and wanted to get it repierced I went back. This time Travis pierced it, and I did not agree with his personality very much, as I felt he made some kind of targeted comments at my preferred jewelry and piercing placement, and he also was a little rude when we were having a conversation regarding the circumstances of my surgery. Since there was a scar showing the placement of my previous piercing, I trusted the results would be similiar, but after seeing the markings and thinking they looked good, the piercing happened and it felt a little off. Originally he tried to give me a piece of jewelry for the healing that was comically oversized, and when I said that I would like a smaller size, he acted as if it was a silly request. But truly, my lip was not going to swell to double its normal size because of a repiercing. I signed a form, got the smaller jewelry, and figured I would downsize when it was appropriate and hopefully I wouldnt feel like the placement was weird, but after the piercing had healed and I went to get it downsized, he revealed that no jewelry would fit the way I wanted because there werent any small enough piercings unless I had one custom made. I couldnt afford that so I just accepted it, until this year when I started disliking it so much I decided id rather not have the piercing than have the weirdly placed one, so I took it out. I know the difference might look kind of minimal, but it really drove me crazy to feel the piercing wiggling around so much, and not be able to afford jewelry I would like because it was not within standard sizes. For a while I blamed my anatomy, but a few weeks ago I realized maybe my lips arent weirdly shaped and my prefered placement should be possible, so I got it repierced elsewhere. Now that it is healed (or at least no longer swollen), I can confidently say that Travis messed up with the piercing placement, and acted quite unprofessionally in my opinion. I am comfortably wearing a size piercing that I think is third from the smallest standard size, and it fits exactly how I want. I will attach a photo with a comparison of the piercing i got from travis and my current piercing. (in the top pictures I am wearing a 16g, 1/4 inch piercing, and in the bottom pictures I am wearing a 16g, 3/8 inch piercing.) I cannot recommend the other piercers enough, and I hope to return here for many future jobs, but I would like to recognize this expirience in my review because it was an upsetting expirience that cost me time and money.
