First time here it's Leah did my piercing in my nose. very nice girl. She's been piercing for many years. I highly recommend her the facilities very clean. Everything is sterile & they sell a lot of body jewelry. They have very many talented people from tattoo artist, to permanent makeup artist to people that do body piercings. There's just so much talent in this building. read more

Twisted Tattoo - My nose piercing. - Tattoo Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Twisted Tattoo is an amazing shop with a great staff and talented artists. I won't be going anywhere else! The only issue I had today was that my artist, Mauricio, was repeatedly pulled away for consultations during my appointment. Each time he was called over, it took time away from my tattoo. Some consultations lasted around 20 minutes. With that happening about four times, it added up to roughly an hour of lost work time. That said, Mauricio handled it incredibly well. He multitasked effectively and still managed to get as much done as possible within the scheduled appointment. I'm excited to get it finished in the future! read more

I have been here 2x now for piercings and recently went in for a tattoo. The place is clean, well managed and the people are friendly. Osmany was my tattoo artist and his work is very good. He took my idea and AI generated mock-up, and put his own spin on it. I am very pleased with the experience. read more

Went here to get a "tattoo removal". Very old equipment, don't remember them giving me goggles and I could smell my skin burning. Go to The Removery instead! Cheaper isn't worth it here. At the end of my first appt they also quickly talked me into putting a deposit down for the next appt and they wouldn't refund me just a few days later. Very disappointed. Update: They have now texted me personally after I posted my review. Very weird. I gave an honest review of my experience. At the new place I went, The Removery, they provided ice packs prior, aftercare packet with soap and moisturizer like Vaseline and went over a timeline with me. Worlds of difference. read more

Got a tattoo done by Kristen and had a great experience. The shop is super clean and has a cool vibe, and Kristen was really nice the whole time. She made sure I was happy with the design and the placement before we started, which I really appreciated. The tattoo turned out exactly how I wanted and I'm super happy with it! read more

Awesome place to get a tatt, there's appointments that can be booked online and everyone is so sweet and amazing. Chuy was amazing and so patient, his lines were clean and awesome.

My husband and I for our anniversary got some new ink and we had a really great experience here! It was reasonably priced, we both got along with our tattoo artist and of course love our end result. We were a walk-in too, and were able to be seen almost right away. If I get anymore tattoos here in SATX, this is where I'll be getting them! read more

If I was a Tattoo Artist - this would DEF be the place where I would want to work at! This place looks waaaaay bigger than what it looks like from the outside. I love each artist have their own private rooms where their personalities reflect! Their names are posted on the outside which gives it a personal touch. All the artist are fun and friendly! Anyway, came here back in January for the Friday the 13th deals. They were very organized and the process was very smooth. I have many tattoos already, little bangers is just all what I need now. If they have another Friday the 13th event - I'm definitely going! read more

Amazing! Booked with Esmee for a piece I wanted to get and she was great! Very friendly with a great knowledge of everything, Will be back

I had a fabulous experience with Keith today. From the moment we met, he made me feel comfortable- even starting with a hard candy to relax me . His work ethic is amazing, and my tattoo turned out exactly as I had asked for. He is a true artist. This was my 1st tattoo, so he explained everything in great detail, and I left knowing exactly how to take care of my new little masterpiece. The shop is run very professionally- top notch. I highly recommend Twisted Tattoo read more

Super sick atmosphere. And a professional booking system. I only got a small tattoo but I would definitely come here again for a larger piece. read more

I just got my first tattoo today and I am so happy! My artist was Daniel and he was absolutely amazing. He was so understanding that it was my first tattoo so he helped me by talking me through the whole process and making sure I was comfortable before he started. My tattoo turned out perfect, it blew my expectations out of the water. If you are wanting a tattoo, especially if it is your first, please go to Twisted Tattoo, especially Daniel. The customer service was amazing, the cost was fair, their shop was so clean, it is fantastic. 11/10, highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!! read more

The experience as a whole was fantastic. We did a consult through the booking site we uploaded a couple pictures and within an hour we were sent a quote on the tattoos and we're booked for the next day really quickly. We loved our artist Manuel. He did an awesome job on my brother and my tattoos. He was really chill and we both fell asleep in the chair lol. We didn't feel obligated to have awkward small talk. So that was very chill too. 10/10 experience. When i come back to visit I will be booking with Manuel again. read more

James and his staff are exceptional! I was visiting my daughter on Winter holiday from cold and snowy NY and decided to pull the trigger on a bucket list item and was looking for the right shop to pull it off. I did some research and came across Twisted Tattoo. When I read about James's story and checked out his artwork, I knew this shop was for me and was praying he could get me in for an appointment. His business was clean, well maintained and an overall relaxing/chill spa environment. Staff were warm and welcoming. The artwork and creative process was amazing and exceeded my expectations. With skill and grace, James brought my vision to life in a very emotional and personal way and it's something we are both proud of. I highly recommend this business for anyone looking for ink or piercing. James's work is beyond compare. He even personally checked up on me to make sure I was healing or if I had any questions or concerns. For James and his staff I say this- "In the quiet of night and solitary in our thoughts, it is then we are able to do our best creative work. Rock on James and Twisted Tattoo! It will be a year until my next return and am looking forward to visting you all again." Note: For personal reasons and to prevent copycats, I have decided not to provide a photo of my artwork for this review. But trust me, it is epic! read more

Not sure these guys need five star reviews because they are simply great. They are talented and patient. Ultra kind because seven (yes 7) of us showed up. So... for my bday we wanted to brand/stamp our last name's initial. That's the letter "G". Mr. Henry, Mr. Manuel and the hot Cam guy!?! Mr. Erin/Aaron?!?!??!!...delivered and they all have delivered BIG! Don't be fooled by the small initial. It takes time and knowledge to get my crazy family to like this. The "G" is for God, Good, Gorgeous, Generous and Genius. Twisted got it right! Got IT right seven times indeed. Photo enclosed. Need I say more!?!!!? read more

Twisted Tattoo - "G" never looked better!! - Tattoo Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Outsiders aren't welcome. Paying customers aren't appreciated. There is no accountability when there are problems, only excuses. There is definitely no desire to improve. Sorry I spent my money here. I tried working with the owner to figure this out but all he had was excuses...not one attempt to improve processes. It's so so sad to see someone so incapable of acknowledging their own failures rather than a desire to improve. UPDATE! James the owner is the problem. He refuses to accept accountability for his failures and instead, chose to accuse me of "wanting money" when all I asked for was his acknowledgement of the problem. He then accused me of wanting Angel fired. Not even remotely accurate! Angel is talented and is slinging his art the right way. James has a serious problem with accountability. Get well soon. read more

I requested a tattoo from Twisted Tattoo to commemorate a trip to Maui. I had researched them for a while and liked the work their artists did. My friend sent in the artwork, we got a very reasonable quote and made appointments. I changed up my art, sent it in and they were very accommodating, quoting me the same price. My artist was Rudy Gatica and he was super nice and professional. He answered all my questions and I felt relaxed and at ease. I'm so very happy with my artwork! It's exactly what I was wanting. I highly recommend Twisted Tattoo and I will be using their services again soon! read more

Great experience again! Matt is ana amazing artist. Extremely professional and clean. I recommend him to anyone that wants quality work.

I visited this shop on a Friday the 13th walk-in special and was excited to get my septum piercing done. While the staff overall was friendly and respectful, I was very disappointed with the piercing itself. The piercing was placed very high in my septum at a crooked angle, which caused significant pain during the procedure. Six days later, I sought a professional opinion from a reputable piercing shop in my hometown. They confirmed my concerns: the piercing was improperly placed, going through excessive cartilage and much higher than it should have been. The piercer kindly removed it for me and advised I let it heal before trying again in the future. While I appreciate the friendliness of the staff, the technical quality of the work was subpar. I wouldn't recommend Alex for septum piercings based on this experience. read more

The people were great. The tattoo artist took my ideas and created a better tattoo than I even had in mind.

Got these done today, had a great artist and was surrounded by great people. A very professional and good place to go for a tattoo I have many and this is probably the best one I've ever been too. read more

I went here for my first tattoo with my friend who is a seasoned veteran. We were treated well when it was the both of us, but then we found out that they no longer had time for both of us that day. Mine was a very small simple design, where my friends was more elaborate, so they bumped her. We found another parlor that could take her that day, but they had already taken a deposit for mine so I went in by myself. Despite waiting hours for the scheduled time and providing the image and sizing for the tattoo, they had nothing prepared. The artist "whipped something up" in two seconds that was extremely basic, three times the size I asked for, and unfinished. On top of that, despite my explaining that it was my first tattoo, that I was nervous, and that I had bad anxiety, he told me "you'll be fine", jumped in, and spent a total of maybe 20 minutes total (including drawing) on my tattoo. Then he proceeded to throw a bandage over it, give me no information on aftercare (even though I asked for it) and gave me just a quick glimpse of the final product so I didn't notice that he DIDN'T COMPLETE IT. Oh, and I was charged $100.00 After that I went and met up with my friend who was charged fairly, treated well, and involved in the process every step of the way. And I'm now looking for another artist to fix mine. read more

First of all, this place is absolutely amazing. The atmosphere is really laid back and they make you feel very understood and listen to you with attentiveness, and every staff member is so nice and friendly. This is how a business should be run. There is even a nice lounge for the family and kids to hang out in while you're getting tatted. This is my third tattoo there. My first was with Manuel who was great! Went in today for two tattoos with Mauricio. I would give him an 11 out of 10. He was so patient, duplicated my ideas exactly, was very precise, and was really enjoyable to work with. He gave me the time to look everything over and was so thorough about every little detail. I literally cannot say enough about Twisted Tattoo and their staff. Their booking system is also very nice to use. Their prices are spot on and very reasonable. I will never get another tattoo anywhere else in San Antonio because this place is amazing!!! Highly recommend!!! read more

Very accommodating customer service, Mya will work with you until you're satisfied. Very clean place and great hygienic protocols. Rudy was professional and courteous. We're very very happy with our tattoos. Highly recommend and we'll be back soon. read more

I found Twisted Tattoo for my husband last month since he wanted his nose pierced and he had a great experience so immediately, this was my new go-to for piercings. The front desk staff is so sweet and so pleasant and the walk-in/check-in process is super smooth. The studio is also well-decorated and they play great music. My review is unfortunately directed specifically towards the piercing itself, I believe was done by Alex. I got my tongue pierced a few days ago and noticed my healing process was more uncomfortable than the first time (I had it pierced 8+ years ago) I figured it was probably scar tissue or something given it was my 2nd time getting the same piercing however it was getting more and more bothersome and my gut just didn't feel right. I realized the placement on the backside/underneath was right next to the flap under my tongue, it was pierced at an angle going further back so the ball was digging into the gums of my bottom row of teeth which gave me a sore and made it raw and then I couldn't stick my tongue out without the bar getting caught between my tongue and bottom row of teeth because of the angle and how far back it was. There was also a cyst like lump I felt on and under my tongue on the left side of the piercing that was really setting it off for me. I ended up taking it out because the combination of this all was just too much even though I really wanted to give it a few more days. My sister in law got hers done at Absolute Tattoo the same day and had no problems, ideal placement, way less swelling/pain/discomfort and got it for $38 less than I did (excluding tip) Funny thing is that I thought Absolute Tattoo was sketchy because they didn't have as many Yelp reviews so I insisted on getting mine done here. I didn't want to go to the shop and be a Karen but I admit I'm pretty bummed that I took an $88 loss, went through the pain and drank only liquids for 4 days for nothing so if you're looking for a tongue piercing, I hope this can be helpful. I just want to note that their staff really is so friendly and so sweet so I truly feel bad leaving a negative review read more

Great shop. Great people from the owners to the front desk to the tattoo artists and social media peeps. I have dealt with them all as a non-profit entity and on a personal level. They are all about helping others. I had the privilege to have a cover-up tattoo done by Keith and I am not disappointed. He did an excellent job! This is a first-class tattoo shop and I highly recommended. read more
