Houston Heights Tattoo

I got my septum piercing done by bunz and it was the best experience ever!!! He said “ if you do it correctly, it doesn’t hurt “ and it didn’t at all. Like seriously no joke. It was less than 4 min and most of it was him getting the exact spot! , yes it was more than I planned to spend and the jewelry is separate and they don’t do outside jewelry, you buy from them but it’s worth it!!! And it’s was a cute vibe!!!! They were nice and didn’t make you feel uncomfortable, he took his time they explained EVERY THING to me in a way I understood … this pic was 2 weeks after it healed the video is from day of obviously

As someone who's never had a tattoo, but has always wanted a few (perhaps eventually a sleeve), I took my time reading reviews and searching the web for a great place to go. I am so excited to have found Ricardo at Houston Heights Tattoo!! I looked at each artist's portfolio. Although they are all crazy talented, Ricardo's style seemed to align better with my tattoo goals. I booked a consult to see him. Showed him a couple images of what I want. Again, being a tattoo virgin, I needed someone who was going to be transparent with me and my expectations. I needed someone who was going to be honest and realistic about tattoo size and placement and emphasize the importance of what it COULD look like down the road. I needed someone to burst my (unrealistic) bubble!! Ricardo was very transparent, right from the jump -- which I greatly appreciated!! Him and I spoke on instagram DMs quite a bit after the consult, as I had many questions and several concerns. He took the time to message back and even after my tattoo, made me feel like I am able to reach out to him at any time with questions -- even after the service was completed. I was crazy nervous when I walked in. He made me feel at ease and calm... to my surprise, I sat through the tattoo like a champ. I went in with the mindset of just getting one tattoo, but decided why not -- he's got me for another hour so might as well get another! I am planning on coming back for my birthday in May! Ricardo has great bedside manners and he is an overall super cool guy and very kind. Could not have been happier with my first experience!! Now, let's talk about the shop. AWESOME VIBES. Literally. The best vibes you could experience coming to a tattoo shop. I feel it is necessary to ALSO GIVE A SHOUTOUT to the awesome girl that runs the front desk/reception. I'm bad with names. It's always busy when I walk in but she is running the show like a beast. I feel this was important to mention. :) Anyways... highly recommend this place. If you're on the fence about this place, I hope you give it a chance and hope you all enjoy as much as I did!! Thank you Ricardo! :D

I love it at Houston Heights!! Everyone is always so welcoming and nice. I last went for their Friday the 13th flash event where I got tattooed by Dione (@topochica.tattoos) and she was so great!! Not only was she super sweet and easy to talk to, but she made my simple flash tatt look so cute and cohesive with my other tattoos (,: I would highly recommend her and this shop! ❤️

I got my first tattoo by Dione, she was absolutely wonderful, made sure I liked my placement and sizing, adjusted fonts to my liking and had a warm presence, I have nothing bad or anything to point out from my experience, everyone there was lovely and very very friendly, I felt included like I knew everyone already, the atmosphere was also very inviting, I felt very safe and comfortable. I will be going back to Dione for future tattoos, again she was absolutely wonderful and a delight, a very very good artist, I get compliments all the time and then get to say how amazingly talented the artist is, she has a special touch for sure✨

This was my first time at the shop, and Gabriel absolutely exceeded my expectations. He’s a great artist—very talented, quick, and incredibly personable. He made me feel comfortable from start to finish, and the conversation was great throughout the session. The results were amazing, and I couldn’t be happier with the work. Overall, a fantastic experience.
