The Chosen One Ink

Experienced and Professional Piercings! 🙌🏽I was wondering why this shop had an almost 5 start rating with almost 2000 reviews 🙉🙌🏽 🔥 Then I came in to get a body piercing and understood.As soon your walk in, you are greeted. The shop looks so cool with all the neon colors and decor. Matt was cool and gave clear instructions of what I needed to do to prep for my piercing.The thing that surprised me the most was while I was in the chair waiting to get my piercing, the phone rang. Matt already had his gloves on and ready to go, then he picked up the phone with his gloved hand. I was wondering if he’d change the glove or not, and to my pleasant observation, he changed the glove and expressed how it was important for them to maintain a clean technique for their clients. Thank you so much for that. And that’s when I knew how professional, knowledgeable and clean they were in their shop.They also educate you use a piercing cleaning solution instead of salt and water that can dry out your skin.They have years of experience in piercings. 🙌🏽🔥I’m from out of town, but I’d definitely return back and would highly recommend to everyone.Thanks Matt and Chosen One Ink!

So glad I decided to come here to get my first professional tattoo. The whole staff is very welcoming and professional they made me feel very comfortable despite how nervous I was. Almost every employee that worked there walked in and was talking about how cool my tattoo was looking and considering how emotionally significant my tattoo is it made me so happy to hear ( to everyone on staff that day that complimented my tattoo thank you so much you truly don’t know how much it meant to hear that). The I’m artist currently working with is Chris and I couldn’t be happier with his work. He very graciously decided to take me in to do a tattoo on just three days notice. I can’t wait to go back in a few weeks to finish it up because just the line work is amazing! Will definitely be back for any future tattoos and piercings!

If youre considering getting a tattoo and want a memorable experience, Lady Karina at The Chosen One Ink in Arlington, TX, is the person to see. I had my first tattoo done there last weekend, and it was a fantastic experience. Lady Karina made the process enjoyable and personal, ensuring I was completely comfortable throughout. The studio itself is a delightful place, filled with interesting artwork and a welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home.Lady Karina is not only a professional but also an incredible artist. The tattoo she crafted for me is nothing short of impressive. Im thrilled with the unique touches she added, showcasing her expertise. She managed to be both professional and personable, making the session feel like catching up with an old friend.A heartfelt thank you to Lady Karina for the wonderful experience and the beautiful artwork that now adorns my arm. It holds great significance for me. For anyone contemplating where to go for their next or first tattoo, I highly recommend The Chosen One and Lady Karina. Youre sure to have an experience that exceeds your expectations.

The cleanest, caring and straight up bad a## tattoo shop Ive ever been in. They are so professional and take sanitation to the top level. I took my granddaughter in for her first tattoo. I was so extremely pleased. Jayson made her feel comfortable and was so gentle and constantly told her she was doing great. He nailed the tattoo perfectly. While I was enjoying her adventure, we had the pleasure of talking with Matt, the owner. We clicked so well, I went ahead and got my daith piercing. He was so gentle and walked me thru the process. I used to go all the way to Fort Worth for my ink, I now have an outstanding shop close to home. I want to thank the staff for being so outstanding. I promise you will see us again soon. Love you all! ❤️ P.S. to Matt, wanted you to know that my headaches have gotten so much better.

You can’t miss The Chosen One Ink when you drive by. The neon lights draw you in to a wonderful world of possibilities! As you enter it’s just as colorful inside with sketches, posters, and tons of artwork. Plus this place is CLEAN. We decided on piercings…my daughter chose her nose and I did my conch (totally forgot to get a pic)Phat Matt you are THE guy to see for piercings! You were not only completely professional, but so great at talking through each step. You made sure we were comfortable with placement and jewelry. Thanks for making our night, and for taking the time to engage with your customers…you are a rarity in your field.

I absolutely loved my experience here. This shop is eclectic and has a welcoming energy as soon as you walk in. The staff are very personable, fun and just a joy to work with. The shop was clean and organized, even with all the crazy decor haha.My artist, Ozzy, gave me the best tattoo experience and actually brought me to happy tears with the results of one of my tattoos. He puts a lot of heart into his work, and his personality comes out in his art style. Id recommend him to anyone and I cannot wait to get inked again.Matt is such a cool dude and was very easy to talk to while passing the time in-between tattoos. He was helpful, informative and funny as hell. I admire his professionalism and the pride he has in the shop. I will definitely be getting pierced by him in the future.10/10 would get stabbed here again.

Matt is amazing!! I’m telling everyone I know about him and his shop! If you are looking for a place to go pick this one! I was looking for a while and am so happy I found them. Matt took care of me and was the nicest person I have ever met in a tattoo shop

Highly Recommended I just my first tattoo from Ozzy He’s super patient amazing work make sure you’re comfortable Definitely coming back shout out to Matt and his awesome stuff

I got my eyebrow pierced with Matt and he was AMAZING!!! Made me feel so comfortable and was so kind to our group. DEFINITELY COMING BACK for any more piercings 🫶🏻

Matt is the best!! I got my nose pierced and he was so careful while being very informative and sweet about it. Super funny guy who told me everything I needed to know! Expressed how well he does and knows about his job. I would totally recommend!! 10/10

Matt is an awesome guy and is very understanding. I have a hard time with passing out in these situations and the whole time he talked me through it giving me advice and let me stay in the room for as long as i felt like it until i didn’t feel like i was going to pass out. The overall piercings came out beautiful and never once got a bump or infection.

Called because my piercing I got from another place came off and the owner was incredibly helpful! Got me in immediately and made my piercing better than it was before. Super nice and high quality! Gonna get my next tattoo here too

I have 11 piercings and my first 4 I got at a different piercer, they all got infected and was a pain to deal with. The rest of my piercings I’ve gotten here and not a single problem, the most courteous staff and the atmosphere is unbeatable. If you want a piercing or tattoo I highly recommend coming here!

This shop is not only welcoming but so cool! I came in as a walk-in for a septum piercing and Matt kindly greeted me and gave me the run down of the piercing I wanted. Literally made the process super easy and comfortable!! I love this shop and will definitely be back! Thank you Matt!

Had a great experience with Matt today. I brought my daughter in for her 2nd piercings on her lobes (shes 12). Her piercings had moved since she was pierced as a baby and Matt had the perfect solution so she could get the look she really wanted. I knew she was nervous but his easygoing attitude put her at ease. He had a great selection of jewelry and seemed to know exactly what she wanted!When we left she was all smiles and said He was sooo nice!Would definitely recommend!

I was very nervous to get a nose piercing but the owner and his wife made me feel very comfortable. They were very friendly, took time to explain the process, and were professional. The shop was clean which made a huge difference for me. Cool shop with cool people to boot!

Matt made me feel so comfortable! I’m very indecisive when it comes to jewelry and he told me what colors/medals would look best on me!! Will definitely be returning

Absolutely loved getting my nose pierced here !!! Matt was so professional and helpful with answering all the questions I had. If you are looking to get a nose piercing or any piercing I highly recommend this place filled with the sweetest people.

I went in to get an earring changed out in one of my cartilage piercings, and the lady who did it was super nice. Its a really nice environment all around that lends itself to great overall experiences. I will most definitely be coming back!

I spent almost 15 hours at this place so I think I can vouch when I say that they are amazing. First, the environment is cool! The decorations, warm vibes, and friendliness all make a wonderful experience. Karina, Matt, and Josh all are super knowledgeable and fantastic people. I did not get a piercing here, but everyone else who came in was super happy with it. This was my first tattoo, and Karina helped me with the creative design and implementation. She is truly an expert!Whether it is your first tattoo or not, their expertise is noteworthy. They make you feel like family. So go see them! I know that I will be back.

On July 3rd of this year, I happened to be downtown to watch the fireworks when I saw that The Chosen One had their open sign on. A friend of mine and I both went in and I immediately fell in love with the place! Everyone that greeted us was so friendly and really knew how to treat their customers. I ended up walking out with a flash tattoo and have since gone back for another tattoo. Great ownership, great employees, and great tattoos. Thank y’all!!!

Incredibly cool place, and everyone who works there are so welcoming! Matt and Jayson are literally some of the nicest people you will ever meet. Jayson did great work on me tattoo wise, and I will defintely be back for more from him! Thanks again guys for your professionalism and hospitality!!

Jayson was amazing!! He was able to take in a party of three walk-ins with no problem and when the tattoos went past closing time he stayed to finish. He did an excellent job with all of it. Overall the artists and owner are awesome people who love to talk to their customers and do their best to make you feel welcomed.

WOW! My wife and I both had cover up tattoos done by Lady Karina. We are both extremely pleased and happy with her art work. Karina and Matt treated us like Family. Very professional , amazing results, such vivid detail, color and very life like. We will definitely be back for more. We wont consider using any other tattoo artist now.👍👍👍👍👍

Walked in for a consult not sure if I could have my septum done again. Walked out with my nose pierced and knowing I am able to get my septum done. Matt and Karina are so friendly. The shop is super clean and has the best vibes. I will be back to get my septum and new tattoos from here!

We went in yesterday, to get my eight-year-old daughters ears pierced. She was very scared and full of anxiety, but Matt helped her through the whole situation and did a great job making her feel calm. Katrina thank you for the popsicle, it definitely took my daughters attention away from the pain… awesome customer service! Be back soon!

Love this shop so much. Got my first tattoos here with the lovely and talented Josh. This is a bit of his work on me from the past few months. I bring him ideas and he delivers every time. I’m booking an appointment with him as we speak! His instagram is @joshdrawz1 Thank you for the body art my friend.

Matt is the best piercer ever ! After struggling for months to try and find someone to even out my second nose piercing, he did it, and just a matter of minutes and it looks perfect! His hospitality was A1 I highly recommend 10 out of 10 ! It was very personal for the owner to take time and pierce my nose.

Literally, the best shop ever the vibes are amazing. I’ve gotten multiple tattoos from Josh and he is fabulous. They are all great and it’s just a really great place to go.

Did amazing on my tattoo.. i absolutely love my knew tat..Update got another Tattoo tonight by Chris he did amazing on my turtle! Definitely will be coming here again soon!!

I found this shop purely by chance to get some dimple piercings, and I’m so glad I did. The shop is so dope, and the owner, Matt, is a great dude who genuinely cares about his clients. I had a great experience getting pierced by him, and I’ll definitely be coming back to get my next piercing and tattoo!🤟🏾

I just got a nose piercing, literally the best place to get it done. The guy that did mine was dope asf and he was so chill. 10/10 and I will come back again.

Matt, Chris and Katrina are all amazing! Matt took care of changing my jewelry in a jiffy, Chris designed and tattooed my husband perfectly, Katrina was so helpful on local gems we needed to see while in town! Looking forward to seeing them again on our next trip!

Great vibe and energy the minute you walk in. Called and spoke with Matt about piercing my daughters ears and walked in later that day. He went out of his way to make her feel comfortable when she started to get really nervous and she couldnt be happier. I decided to start another piece Ive been wanting, so again i set up over the phone to come in. Meet with Jayson about what i wanted and he was able to start the same day. Music jamming great communication from everyone that was there and probably the cleanest shop in Arlington. This will be my go-to shop for piercings and tattoos. I would recommend anyone wanting to start the journey to start here and talk with the shop you will not regret it.

Matt did an amazing job with my tongue piercing!!! It healed super quickly, and the shop was very clean. Ive got a good deal of experience with a lot of different piercers, and Matt is definitely someone I would go back to.

Got my tongue done yesterday, it was a pleasant experience. I love the vibe like yes 😩. The gremlin on top of the Zoltar machine! I also identify as a gremlin, don’t feed me after midnight. I will definitely be back to get my septum re done and maybe more 😀❤️

I brought my daughter to The Chosen One Ink as an 18th birthday present, and they have earned forever customers for sure! The owner, Matt, was so kind and welcoming that he immediately made her feel comfortable! The artist, Jayson, really took the time to listen to her and together they made the dream of her first tattoo come alive. He explained everything that he was doing as he was doing it in order to make her feel comfortable and heard. The end result is an absolutely stunning piece of art! I would recommend this shop to anyone!

Love them!! They’ve done every single piercing I have. Wonderful service, Matt has very gentle hands. He made my industrial feel like a breeze and my helix barely hurt. I tell everyone I know to go to them.

Jayson is the bomb! He did my foot tattoo, he was very professional and talked me through it. The atmosphere was warm and everyone was nice. I recommend Chosen One to anyone in need of body piercing and/or a tattoo, you won’t be disappointed. I will be back so Jayson can add color to my old tattoos. This was a great experience. I’m a happy customer!

Had an amazing experience. My daughter got her ears pierced here and she was really scared. They were really patient with her. The person who pierced her ears was amazing with her. She is five years old and he was great with her. Highly recommend this place.

I’ve gotten multiple tattoos done at this shop over the years, and it is always my recommendation when someone I know is wanting some new ink. Not only is the environment, welcoming, fun, clean, and aesthetically pleasing, but all of the artist are just great people to be around, particularly Karina, who is just an absolute doll. And on top of making you feel at home and at ease, they do absolutely incredible work.There is no limit to style either. Whether you want something artsy, or understated, or more traditional, this is the place to go. I’ve gone to them with super specific ideas that they have brought to life impeccably, but I’ve also given a more vague idea of what I was wanting and been blown away with what Karina was able to come up with just based off of that. Stunning work, every time.Seriously, save yourself the time of shopping around and please give these talented artist’s your business because you won’t regret it. I for one can’t wait to go back and get my sleeve started. =)

The best! sweet and kind, i’ve been twice so far and i don’t think i could try any other piercing shop. i’ve only ever been in to get piercings but matt is incredible!

I been going here a couple years now. Matt is such an awesome guy and kind to all his clients. He treats everyone with respect and you can feel the good energy as soon as you walk in!

I just got my tongue pierced by Matt and had the best experience. They have great customer service and I will continue going To get more piercings.

Matt did my tongue piercing and it didn’t hurt at all! He was such a cool chill guy answering all my questions about the piercing. Definitely recommend this place!

Came here for my first tattoo and I couldn’t be happier with the result! Karina made me feel super comfortable and she is an amazingly skilled artist. She got my piece done with precision and made the time go by quickly with great conversation. I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone! Great people and great artwork. I will be back!

I was going to wait until I went back home to Kansas City to do my piercings but glad I was able to find a piercer here. I spoke with Matt on the phone even before going to his shop and he assured me I would not be disappointed with his service. He was right and Im glad I went. Matt provided excellent customer service from the moment I walked in. He was very friendly and did an excellent job with my piercings.

I just had an amazing tattoo session with Karina at The Chosen One!! I booked an appointment with her for a cover up with a traditional piece and it turned out so beautiful. She gave the best customer service and it was an absolute joy to chat with her and watch her work.This was a very cool tattoo shop and I was impressed with the staff. All the artists were nice. I definitely recommend going here for tattoos and piercings because you will definitely receive incredible results.I look forward to coming back!! 😊

Matt was so helpful, nice, and chill with me and my friend. I had an infected helix piercing and he took it out and gave me a cleaner for free. I’m for sure coming back for my next piercing. He also did my friend’s helix and it turned out so cute!!

Matt is the best!! 3rd time going to him for a piercing. Very kind and communicative and quick! He is goateddd

Recently visited this tattoo shop and I can honestly say Exceptional, had a chance to meet the owner personally Phat Matt ,he was Great and service was fast …… Also traveled 2 hrs to get to this shop well worth the ride….. Great clean atmosphere, talented tattoo artists, and everything needed for body piercings and tattoos…

03/18/2023 OG REVIEWThey were extremely nice as soon as we walked in and very friendly. The place is very cool and comfortable looking and feels very safe.Josh was the one who did my best friend and is matching tattoos! We showed him our idea and he came back with the most adorable sketch ever. Its so cute I swear Im in love with this tattoo😭😭 He was also extremely kind and kept engaged with us the whole time with great conversation!! He was very cool and very talented and gentle!! The tattoos didnt hurt much at all really, which was surprising since I have a semilow pain tolerance! He made sure to inform us of aftercare and communicated greatly about everything going on.Im definitely coming back here to get another tattoo when I can Im very happy :3-----09/25/2023 UPDATEJust Wanted to update that My Tattoos are still holding up very well 6 months later!!! Very much still recommend this place :3 I added Two photos with the now 6 month old tattoos that healed very well!

Everyone there is super friendly! My friend and I were able to just walk in and get our tattoos without having to make an appointment which was sick. We both saw Josh to get matching tattoos and he was super chill and nice!! After we were done getting our main tattoos, he was nice enough to give us another extra little tattoo for no extra charge! I’d definitely come here again when I want to get my next tattoo.

Karina was amazing. I consulted with another artist elsewhere who basically told me he was ONLY going to do what HE thought I needed. Left a bad taste in my mouth. I wanted something very feminine and fine. Karina has no problem doing it for me and saw my vision. She replicated my deceased aunts signature perfectly ❤️

Josh did my first tattoo for me. it was a chest piece and im in love with it! they were very thorough with making sure I was happy with the design and talked me through the whole process. it was a great experience overall and everyone communicated well. will definitely come back for my next. i wish i had a better picture before it started to scab with better lighting bc it definitely doesn’t do it justice.

This is my second time coming here and each time has been extremely pleasant and satisfying. Matt is super nice (as well as all the staff) and walked me through every step perfectly. Although it was painful, all these things made it really seem not that bad lol. If youre in Arlington and looking for a well priced shop to get piercings/tattoos, Chosen One is the place to go. Cant wait to see you guys again :)

This shop has great artists and is run by a very professional family. Matt and Karina have excellent staff and a very clean shop. I would definitely recommend The Chosen One Ink Tattoo to anyone wanting a tattoo or piercing.

I came to this shop to get my belly pierced because my uncle had recommended this place and I loved it. Matt is really friendly, chill and great at not only tattoos but also piercings. He explains the after care thoroughly and answers any questions. Also the shop looks so cool, it stands out from other ones, it’s literally in the name. If you’re unsure about where to go for piercings or tattoos I 10/10 definitely recommended this place.

I’ve gotten my belly, my 3rd lobes, and my rook here, and they are all perfect. They care a lot about making sure you have a good experience and are happy with the result. They also have a lot of jewelry options. I’ll continue coming here in the future for sure!

Me and my fiance went around looking for different shops that could possibly do some hand tattoos that were we interested in. We found Josh Sketch Blumberg I had already found someone at this point and had scheduled to go in the following day. But about halfway through my fiancees tattoo I called the other shop and canceled my appointment. Because I was highly impressed with not only his work but his demeanor and the overall cleanliness and organization of the entire shop hes a very outgoing and down-to-earth person and I would highly recommend him to anyone whos looking for an artist in the Arlington area. While I was there I also got to see lady Karina hard at work and was highly impressed by her experience and capabilities especially in the realism spectrum so much in fact I scheduled to have her do my other hand piece only a few days after the first. She is absolutely amazing at what she does and she was absolutely great easy to get along with and I would hands down tell anyone that needs or wants a highly skilled artist capable of high level detailed realism and hyper realism h*** anything tbh to Def check her out Ill post a picture of each piece below but just what an incredible experience it was and not to mention the owner/piercer Matt who is very knowledgeable but also a great guy like everyone at this shop was just super f***ing awesome and I appreciate their hospitality and the effort put into making sure I was 100% satisfied with the work I was receiving. A must if youre looking for Ink or piercings in the Arlington area or willing to make the drive.The rose and skeletal hand was done by Josh as well as the rose and skeleton girl.The lion was done by Lady Karina.

Matt made my whole ear piercing experience very fast and explained all of the aftercare all within 20 minutes. I got my first 2 tattoos here and they are great. Yall come get your tattoos and piercings here they will take care of you and work with you! The whole studio has such an amazing aesthetic too, will be back here for more cuz I am a loyal customer!

Got the most perfect tattoo last night for my son!!! Josh absolutely killed it!! If you haven’t had work done there, you’re missing out!! Karina, Matt, & the guy up front were all so cool & friendly as well!!! Awesome environment and good work! It don’t get better than that!

Love this place! Matt took care of me by patiently talking me through the process of getting my industrial pierced. Josh also did a large tattoo on my forearm the same night, I gave him my idea and he made it much more beautiful and meaningful than I could have imagined. I am ready for another as well. See ya soon Josh and Matt and and thanks again. I cannot wait to get more piercings. I definitely recommend this place!

Matt is such a great guy and the shop has an awesome vibe that speaks for itself!Lots of high quality jewelry also!! I will always come here for my piercing needs. You should to.

Matt is an amazing guy for the piercing, he is so humble and did piercing so calmly that I didnt even noticed that piercing already been done.Even after the piercing, they take proper care of the clients and will explain everything about the after care.]t was my first time but Matt did an amazing job, definitely Chosen One will be first recommendation for everyone.

I was greeted right away when entering which was really nice because I was nervous, I went to the room to get my nose piercing and felt really comfortable, the owner Matt made me feel at ease and is super nice. We finnaly did the pericing and it barely hurt, felt like getting pinched. 10/10 would recommend to come here2nd picture is from today 9/6/2022, it has healed perfectly and I love it !!! He also changed the piercing (Matt) that’s why it is different now. Not painful at all!!

Amazing job! He told me everything straight up rather than beating around the bush. Very nice, welcoming, and a great piercer. Did my nose piercing quick and simple! ✨

This is my third piercing with Pratt Matt and he is the best! I got both of my tragus, my nostril, and belly button. Everytime I come in he’s very professional and I can get in and out. Definitely recommend!

AMAZING TATTOO SHOP!I got my nostril and naval pierced and the experience was great! Super friendly staff:) Quick and careful work, with amazing titanium jewelry. Your piercings even come with a free aftercare solution which works WONDERS with the piercings. Would definitely recommend this tattoo and piercing shop to anyone who is looking to getting a piercing that will be pierced ACTUALLY correctly and high quality jewelry. Matt did an amazing job piercing me and I can’t wait to go back and get another piercing soon:)

Chris did an great job on my Panda.. the environment was comfortable.. very professional place.. the owner informed us the proper way to take care of our piercings… I will for sure be coming back!

I will MOST definitely be going back for more piercings in the future!!

Amazing place amazing people highly recommend this shop I’ve had two of my big tattoos done here and my nose pierced. Already planing my next tattoo! Love this place !

Dude this place was awesome! totally worth it. Phat matt was as cool and nice as can be. got a septum piercing for a real good price and it looks and feels great. if you want to know where to go to get pierced you should go here. utmost care and respect.

I’ve gotten 2 piercings here and Matt and his Wife (she looks like sonya blade) theyre amazing. they made me feel comfortable, played badass music and the vibe was so chill. They make you feel like friends vs clients.

Best experience ever! Matt is the man. Professional, uses high grade materials, and such a SICK shop. The vibes are there. Will most definitely be coming back. Best place for my 10th piercing. 10/10!

Got two tattoos done by Josh and I absolutely love them. The whole staff was extremely nice, even if they weren’t working on me. I am certainly going to be returning again very soon.

I love this place they made my husband and I feel like vip Ozzie is the best I highly recommend this place luvs ya OGMOMMAGAMER1979

This place is awesome. Perfect place to get a piercing. Brought my daughter to get her septum pierced. Matt was great and talked her through it. The piercing was smooth and quick and looks amazing. The decor and music are on point as well. Enjoyed our whole visit. Will be back for future piercings and tattoos for sure.

First the place is really eye catching, really loved it! Second the employees are super nice and cool. I got my belly piercing done and almost passed out and Matt was really helpful. Loved my experience, definitely recommend.

I love this place they always make my family and me feel so welcomed Matt has done almost all my piercings and Josh has done my tattoos 100% recommend this place

Went in for the first time for Friday the 13th specials and got a piercing by Matt. He is an expert at his craft and knows what hes doing. Sure, there are other places with cheaper prices, but none come close to the quality or care you receive at this shop. The vibes and aesthetic of this shop are also amazing!! Customer service is outstanding!!

Can I just start with how awesome everyone who works here is! I went there for the first time when they were on Mayfield and 360, that was about maybe 4/5 years ago. I got a little wrist tat by Josh. The shop was neat! I loved the vibes and everyone there of course is soooo nice and welcoming. I was just there this past Friday. Matt pierced my daughter’s belly button for her birthday. And again, of course, it was a great experience from start to finish. They are at the new shop now on Abram. And that shop is awesome! I love all of the decor! Everything is so clean. What I also love, is that they have so many jewelry options for any piercing you may be interested in. If you are thinking about getting a tattoo or a piercing. I definitely, 100% recommend The Chosen One Ink.! You will regret it if you don’t!

Josh is an amazing artist and one awesome soul. He took his time to complete my tat and did for me in two hours than an actual therapist would in a medical practice! If only health insurance covered these sessions! I will be back for more!

Today my boyfriend and I were able to get tatted by josh who did such a great job on not only mines but as well as my boyfriends tattoo. Will definitely be back again!! Thank you so much once again josh for giving me such a wonderful first tattoo experience and a badass tattoo😎!!

Went here not to long ago to get my nose and belly button pierced by Matt and all I got to say it was the best experience I ever had. I’m so happy with what I got. Right away when u walk in you get good vibes. Everyone there seems so chill and welcoming. Highly recommend!

I went and had this tattoo done yesterday. My dad passed so I wanted his handwriting and the artist was able to match it perfectly! I will forever be grateful for this tattoo. Thank you ceaser! They always have good customer service I’ve been there a few times. Matt and his wife are awesome! If u need piercings or tattoos go ti them! They are very clean and very friendly!

Matt did a very beautiful job! My daughter & i came in for her very first piercing (nose ring). I researched shops b4 deciding on THIS place is “the one”. the entire shop is of the sickest art & color schemes u may ever see! I def recommend ppl to come in & allow a gentle piercer (Matt) to service u. don’t let these “$10-20 special” shops get ur business (ik from experience)…Matt gave us options, was informative & educated my teen on aftercare, he even made time just to speak to us “just because” =) i def see myself coming back for a new piercing for “myself”. Thanks Matt for taking care of my big baby today, she’s so happy with it!

Very professional and clean. Owners are great. Super descriptive on after care instructions and very easy to talk to. Really cool decor. Will be going back. 10/10 recommend.

Absolutely love this shop 10/10 recommend for tattoos and piercings definitely will be back

The best staff, coolest vibe and always a good time, Matt is always so kind to our teenager & willing to answer questions and explain hygiene to take care of her piercings. I encourage everyone to take your teenagers to Matt. Also I heard they have great deals going on if you’re looking for some tattoos, or gifting a tattoo! Merry Christmas 🎄Thanks Matt & staff -Machado family

Chris Cabrera is an amazing artist and chooses his ink wisely and I love it. He’s very light handed and quick! His artwork is by far the best I’ve seen. He did my last tattoo and ever since then I haven’t gotten another (even given the chance) because I will only go to him. He did the tattoo in the picture over 5 years ago and it’s still vibrant and looks amazing! Highly recommend him.

They are really good, karina did my cover up and did amazing on it! I will recommend them to anybody

Matt and Karina are always awesome, friendly, and honest with you. I love the shops vibe and it truly feels like a safe space and judgment free zone. I only get piercings done by Matt I don’t trust anyone else!

For sure the best shop I’ve ever been to! All the artists there are always super helpful and chill! I’ve gotten 5 piercings from Matt and always leave the shop with a smile. All the art and decorations in the shop makes it feel like you’re stepping into a different world and there’s always more being added each time I’m there. I would HIGHLY recommend this place to go to for tattoos and piercings!

I got my conch pierced by Matt last November and it was fine the first day, but after 24 hours it started rejecting. I have 10 different piercings, including cartilage piercings, I know how to take care of them. This was not an issue with my personal hygiene but an issue with the hygiene of the needle and jewelry used. Matt also pressured me into going a size higher than I wanted, and bad talked my former piercer, who I no longer see because I no longer live in the area. This wasnt the only problem Ive ever had with this shop, both Karina and Matt have been very rude to me and made me feel uncomfortable on multiple occasions. The pricing for my single piercing was also twice as much as Ive been charged for my other piercings done at different shops. Please please please for the sake of your wallet and the sake of your mental and physical health please do not get pierced at this shop.

Mat, Karina & JOSH aka SKETCH !!All are super friendly, super helpful, super knowledgeable and care so much about you, the customer...Went in on Monday, talk to matt the owner, went back today and BAAAAM, went home with new piece of art.Both times when i went in and showed them what i wanted they didnt shirk they didnt argue, they made SUGGESTIONS.Today i went home with a new tat my own, that i brought in, and damn and bam, done..Josh was amazing, personable, friendly, gentle (as can be lol) and made my 1st experience enjoyable and not regrettable....All them are great, but obvs your 1st time is your favourite..Thank bunches from my heart Josh Sketch Blumberg....

Ozzy was amazing!! Best tattoo experience ever!! Go check him out yall!!

This place is a m a z i n g!!! Took my daughter to get her belly button pierced and her thirds. Great prices, ambiance is nostalgic with the coolest stuff in every room. Lady Karina made us laugh, feel comfortable, and finished the piercings with ease and gave us all the info we needed for care. She insisted I take a video for my teen so that she knows exactly how to clean it! I wouldn’t go anywhere else and will recommend this shop time and time again! Xx

Great shop! Matt is an awesome dude! I would recommend to everyone!

Made an appointment super easy online. Got 2 nose piercings done was in and out in 25 minutes. Matt the owner was extremely friendly and professional and gave me aftercare instructions as well as the cleaning liquid I would need to clean the piercings. Decor inside is pretty cool as well. Would definitely recommend

Matt is by far the best piercer that Ive been to, the mans amazing. He cares that your piercing looks good and more importantly, he cares that youre comfortable. Im not going anywhere else.

I was having problems getting my jewelry out of my nostril piercing (pierced elsewhere), and Karina helped me get it out and the new one popped in super easily and painless!! She’s super sweet and will definitely be coming back to see her for my next tattoos!! 😁😁

Chris is da best!! Love my piercing!! 10/10 def coming back

AMAZING place with AMAZING artists that treat you with kindness and respect. The talent alone is well worth every penny but because they are good people makes the experience that much better. My last tattoo is my favorite and I get compliments ALL the time! I can’t wait to go back.

Got matching tattoos with my mom, excellent service all around!! Very comfortable atmosphere, and Josh was awesome throughout the process. It was my very first tattoo, and they were super understanding, friendly, and informative about it. Would 100% recommend to new and experienced folks alike, 10/10!

Matt did my nose piercing and I absolutely love it! He was very informative in the healing process and how to clean and disinfect it! Love it so much and will be back soon for another piercing 👍

ITS AN AWESOME AND ANAZING PLACE, WORKERS ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING , FRIENDLY, AND SO KOOL, PLYS THE MU SIC YOU WANT ON BLAST , LOVE IT DEFINITELY HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE

Great atmosphere! Got some great work done by OZZY. Quick and easy amazing work

I walked in and got a belly piercing from Chris and he was amazing!! He made the experience very enjoyable it was quick and easy!!

Wow, what a shop! Great tattoo work, even better service. I hadnt had a tattoo in over 10 years due to bad work and poor decisions on my part from the past. Decided to give it a go and within 10 minutes of speaking with Josh, I could tell he genuinely cared to get me taken care of. He did an amazing cover up and I am very grateful for the effort he put in. I will absolutely be back and wouldnt consider another shop as long as these guys are local.Josh- thank you very much for everything.*The shop in general was very clean and the other artist was also super polite when I spoke with her. Very welcoming and relaxed atmosphere; what I would call a true neighborhood tattoo shop.

They have the best vibe! Hubby has known the owners for a long time but we hadnt gone until the other day. Clean and fast! Josh did a great gob on what all we wanted to get done and was so appreciative.

Got my first tattoo here with Ceaser. Very welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. Not to mention an amazing tat!

I went to this place to get my FIRST tattoo and it was AMAZING! My artist Josh was fantastic! He gave me exactly what I wanted and was patient and kind the entire service! The owner was very kind too! The tattoos are 10/10 including reasonable pricing and the customer service makes you feel good and welcoming. Definitely coming back!!

Got my Medusa done! Matt was AWESOME!!! Such a vibe! And Karina was soooo sweet! Love them a ton!!!

Have not met a more friendly group of individuals who are so open and welcoming !I’m sure most people would agree that one of the “turn-offs” from your average person going to get some work done is either: A) a dimly light and overall unwelcoming looking building or B) an overcrowded mess where the chairs/seats are just stacked on top of one another to cram everyone inside.They are so kind, so welcoming, and we’re more than happy to give me a tour and introduce me to all the artists there. The shop is clean, the artists are friendly, and the view from outside is amazing.Excited to be getting some work done here and to have a new home shop 😁

Enjoyed getting a tattoo from Joshua, and enjoyed talking to a very friendly owner Matt. Highly recommend for talented artist who have a good hospitality.

Took our son here a few months ago for his ear piercings. Fantastic experience with Matt. When our daughter wanted her belly button done, we knew Matt had to be the one to do it. Great staff. Best quality jewelry. And awesome vibe in the shop! Highly recommend!

Got multiple piercings at once and Matt was THE BEST piercer Ive ever been to. Ive had multiple piercings at multiple other places before and I will NOT go anywhere else after this experience. 100% recommend to anyone.

Took my daughter for her nose piercing, Matt was very professional and great guy. We will definitely be back soon for work. Nice studio man. So proud for you

Love this place! Matt pierced my belly button. He is very knowledgeable and quick, and he makes sure you’re comfortable and absolutely satisfied with placement before he continues. He told me the best option for jewelry, hopefully this 3rd time around is a charm. I’ve had it done twice somewhere else. His wife, Karina did a neck piece for me some months back and she understood the assignment! You won’t be disappointed, Trust me.

Ive gone for several piercings, tattoos, and even jewelry the staff is always super nice and chill. Really love going here and recommending them to anyone interested in their services, and ive also brought some friends along with me to get tattoos as well! Great work all the time and absolutely love the staff.

Everyone at this shop is super awesome and friendly! I went in to get my industrial pierced again after a couple years. Matt explained the aftercare instructions and precautions in detail and definitely made sure I was comfortable throughout the piercing process. After having several piercings, this is the place I definitely recommend!

Been here twice, once to get my septum piercied and again to get my belly pierced. Staff is professional, friendly, and clean. Theyre very honest and Matt works really quick. 10/10 Would recommend

Matt is awesome, we took our daughter to get a piercing and I was apprehensive taking her to a tattoo shop, however, Matt made us feel so comfortable and welcome. His professionalism is impressive and I would definitely recommend this shop to anyone looking for piercings or tattoos (Saw some incredible art being worked on). Thank you Matt!

Got my eyebrow pierced yesterday by Matt and had a great experience. He was super cool to talk to and very professional. The studio is so rad as well. I’ll definitely be back!

OMG MATT IS THE MAN!! He was soo knowledgeable and cool i wish I came here first instead of weakass claires for my piercing!! Will be back!!

I love coming here. I’ve had the same artist for years and this is the best shop he’s been at. Chris is the best, years in a row love him. Clean, warm and welcoming. The owners are always there work there & treat you like family know you by name.

Went to get a new jewelry. Great selection of body jewelry . Loved how sweet everyone is at this shop! Definitely will be coming back for more jewelry

This tattoo shop is excellent in every aspect. Their artists are incredibly talented, ensuring top-notch design and execution. The studio is clean and follows strict hygiene protocols. They prioritize client satisfaction and provide a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Even outside of the shop, the artists are incredibly sweet people. ive met one of the tattoo artists on several occasions and they are always the most kind soul. not to mention the shop itself is so aesthetically pleasing. i love the location of the shop. makes it very easy to impulsively get something permanently drawn on your skin.

Great place, the artist that did my tattoo was great at his art. The owner a little crazy but fun and animated together this place is perfect for tattoos. I would recommend it to anyone.

I took my daughter here for her belly piercing and tragus piercing. The owner Matt was awesome and did both in under 15 minutes. I highly recommend this place to everyone.

Great shop with awesome people! Seriously can’t say enough good things! They are nice, professional, friendly and create amazing work! They even go out of their way to add little personal touches on tattoos that you don’t think of for yourself! Go check them out for tattoos or piercings!

Hands down the best tattoo experience I’ve ever had. From the moment I stepped in the door, all the way through the session, to when I left. Josh was my artist and not only did he do incredible work, but was super fun and easy to talk to. Everyone else at the shop, and the shop itself, was welcoming and enjoyable. Would recommend to anyone!!!

There is no other place to go to for piercings! I have been going to Matt for years. The best experience. Very professional and educational, they make sure we leave with all aftercare products and the knowledge to heal your piercings properly! 10/10 !!

The best place to get a piercing or tattoo for miles. Matt knows what he’s talking about and he cares about honesty and the customer. I went to get my conch done with a hoop- which is generally not advised unless your piercer is very skilled. He was very upfront about his concerns at the beginning, not just interested in getting me in the chair and taking my money. I knew the risks and knew this was the only place to get it done right, and that he did. I love my piercing and I have no doubt it’s going to heal way better than my industrial I got done somewhere else. Besides Matt’s awesome work that can speak for itself, his customer service is top notch, he genuinely loves and cares about what he does. Yall go support, especially during October!!

I walked in this afternoon for a septum piercing and ended up leaving with a daith piercing as well. 😁 Matt was very knowledgeable, friendly, patient, professional & made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. He took the time to explain everything, make suggestions and answer my questions.I loved the atmosphere/aesthetic of this shop and can’t wait to come back for more piercings and ink in the future! The front desk guy was also great.

I got my eyebrow pierced here by Matt and he was very professional and made sure I felt comfortable. The process went smooth and was very sanitary, definitely recommend!!!

This is the best place to get a tattoo!! They are very inviting and have always take their time listening to me so they get the idea I have in my head on to my body!I’ve gotten several from here. Dozer was my artist. Unfortunately he passed away. I highly recommend Katrina she is amazing!!!

By far best tattoo shop I’ve been to. As soon as you walk in they make you feel like you’re part of the family. I got a nose piercing by Phat Matt and a week later I took my brother for a septum piercing. These guys are awesome!!! Super friendly just amazing!!! Will be going back to tattoos and more piercings !

If I could give them 10 stars I would. I went and had the most awesome conversation, had both tragus pierced, and left feeling like this was my place. Matt and Karina were so down to earth and had a very welcoming vibe. My placement of my piercings were perfect and the aftercare was thoroughly explained. Definitely recommend!!!

The chosen one ink is the best tattoo shop in the metroplex, hands down. Every artist has their own unique style and all are very well experienced. Phat Matt is the man for piercings. I highly recommend using this shop for your next tattoo or piercing.

I have gotten 4 different tattoos done by different artists and they all have done amazing work! Also got few piercing done by an amazing person!! Most definitely recommend them for all and any work you plan on getting!

Matt was awesome! he gave me a lot of helpful info regarding a piercing I wanted, and helped me make an informed decision about it and we decided on something that worked better. He made sure I knew what was going on during the piercing and made me feel comfortable the whole time.

Let me start off saying, I went in a nervous 60yr and left a happy, giddy 30yr! I had my ears pierced and it was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had anywhere!. Matt was the first person to come out and greet me. I told him what I wanted and that I was really nervous. Matt explained the process, what he would use, why he was using this process before he did anything. What I really liked was he took his time to make sure that I was comfortable. The procedure was quick and before I knew it my ears were pretty again! I would recommend this place for the warm atmosphere, cleanliness and professionals that work there. I’m so glad I took a chance and went to this place……I’m still feeling very giddy!!! Thank you Matt 😘

Very relaxing and fun experience. The people there are fun to talk to. I didnt get a big tattoo but much of the time during the tattoo was talking to the artist and he was really good with the tattoo. Definitely would recommend this place to someone

Best place to get piercings. Love the people always so helpful and welcoming.

The Chosen One Ink is a great for both tattoos and piercings. I have gotten majority of my piercings done by Matt and he is excellent! Professional, clean, and very quick!

Firstly, Josh is very cool. He seems honest.The owners are the problem. I guess everyone nowadays only cares about the money.Im not sure, but I think they pose as Christians, Jesus followers. I guess thats cool. They not trying to talk to you about the Bible, or whatever, but I guess a person assumes a more honest interaction.They are the ones who announce their belief system. A belief system generally associated to moral values. I didnt experience any of that while I was here.On the plus side, the place has cool art.

We have gotten 3 piercings by phat Matt! Dude is legit! Staff is amazing and absolutely plan on letting Lady Karina work on my next tattoo! Y’all are killing it

Literally amazing! I went there today for my first tattoo and the staff were AMAZING! Joshua, my tattoo artist was so sweet! He was very helpful since I’m new to the tattoo process. 10/10 definitely recommend! Thank you birthday twin for my first tattoo!

I went in and got a full thigh tattoo. Josh was super awesome! Very professional, easy going. He did an amazing job with helping me finalize a design and was very thorough throughout the process. The end result came out soo great!! I am very impressed with his skills and his professionalism. Highly recommend going to this shop. Everyone was very friendly and its worth checking them out!

10/10 this place is absolutely amazing and the environment is great to be in, high props to the owner for helping me through it 🤩

I had a fabulous experience with all of the staff at The Chosen One! I would highly recommend Lady Karina to everyone! Shes such a true blessing! Shes very talented and takes great pride in her workmanship. Shes such a gifted artist! The shop is always exceptionally clean and the service is outstanding! I love my tattoo!

I cannot vouch for this place enough!!! I went is as a walk in to get my nose pierced and Matt was super chill. He got it done painlessly with in 30 minutes and he’s super friendly. Before I left I ended up talking to karina about a possible tattoo she was so sweet. She called me up and let me know that she was available today to get it done! The tattoo was done with in an hour and I am obsessed with it!!! It is exactly what I asked for! Everyone there is super friendly and they respond quickly! Love them both and they deserve the world

Josh is amazing! I love the crew here at Chosen One. Such warm folks that make you feel like family when you walk in.From walk in to walk out they give you 100% attention and ensure you are comfortable and happy with your ink and/or piercing. If I could give a 10 I would. Go check them out!!!

Got my navel pierced two years ago and it healed up nicely, was having some issues with it so I went and saw Karina today for some help. She was very informative, kind and helpful. She taught me the proper way to care for it and how to make sure my issues with it get healed up quickly.

From the moment I called to see if they do walk ins to the moment I walked out after having my nose pierced i felt welcomed and everyone I interacted with was friendly. Phat Matt was real cool and chill through the whole process making sure I was happy with the placement and jewelry I wanted. I definitely recommend them for piercings and I will be going back for a tattoo soon.

I had 2 infected and horrible piercings from some other place, this placed fixed both of them!! They’re so great and very gentle and sweet. Will only go here for my piercings from now on, they know what they’re doing and care.

Just wanted to update my review on this shop. Karina has been doing my tattoos for years now and I love her work. She is such a good artist and person and never lets me down. I can complete trust her to make my tattoos look amazing. Currently she is working on my cover up tattoo and it’s looking so good! Matt has done my piercings and he’s great! They all healed so quickly with no stubborn issues. I would recommend both of them for their amazing services and reasonable prices as well. You get what you pay for and they exceed the expectations! No need to look further, come to this shop!Absolutely amazing shop! I have received multiple tattoos and piercings that healed extremely quick. It’s super clean and the atmosphere is inviting and friendly. Their prices are reasonable as well. Definitely would recommend this shop.

Matt did my lobes & cartilage and made them unique to me ! my ears look absolutely badass now

First time trying out the chosen one. The customer service was exceptional from start to finish! Josh was the absolute best! He provided the best services you can ask for, i absolutely love the tattoo and he is one of the most relatable people around! Great job all around. I will definitely be back for sure!!

Very cool and friendly place! Will definitely be coming back.

After doing some research I went to The Chosen One Ink Saturday to get a surface tragus piercing. The many 5 star ratings don’t lie. Matt was by far the best piercer I’ve been to. He was upfront and honest about why the surface tragus wouldn’t be a great option for me and instead suggested a double tragus piercing. BEST decision, it came out perfectly with as little pain as possible. It’s so important to do your research and go to an artist that won’t BS you and does QUALITY work. There are too many people that will charge low prices and don’t know have a clue what they’re doing. Found my guy!

For the longest time my wife wanted to get a tattoo on her self harm scars. I only knew one place that would definitely help her out as well work with her. The staff offers nothing but great service and Matt is an outstanding owner as well very friendly and approachable and a pro at piercings and his wife a very phenomenal artist and person along with his other artist. My wife and I will definitely be back more times for more ink or a piercing or two. I definitely recommend this shop too anyone looking to get theyre 1st tattoo or piercing.

Went in for a piercing, got it, and then booked a tattoo appointment!!! Everyone at this shop is super cool and down to earth! Matt and Lady Karina are just incredible people! A friend and I got our forward helix pierced by Matt. He was very informative and he provides all the information you need for aftercare. He really knows his stuff and is there for you if needed!! Lady Karina is awesome, she is helping me create my next tattoo and I cannot wait to get tattooed by her! Best experience I have had at a piercing/tattoo shop!!!

Lady Karina and Matt are amazing, they truly make you feel like family. I had a tattoo emergency last year and Karina really came through for myself and my fiancé with extremely short notice and did an absolutely incredible job tattooing both of us. She truly is a master of all styles and her artwork speaks for itself. Matts customer service is absolutely stellar and he definitely knows his stuff when it comes to piercings and music of the 90s/2000s. Shop has a killer aesthetic and the owners will take really good care of you - you wont regret your time or money spent here.

Recently got my snake eyes pierced , awesome work by phatt mat!! Went in a week later for my septum & once again did stupendous on it!! healing process on both was imaculant no lie , but obviously when doing it right🤌🏽😮‍💨

Today was my first time in this shop. I came in Matt got me in right away even when he was super busy. I got a rook piercing left and right ear it was super fast, Matt is the best thank you for this great experience! Also guys he is absolutely like the coolest person ever absolutely felt comfortable from the gecko 👌👌

The staff was amazing and friendly! I went in as a walk in and Josh immediately took care of me and gave me one of the best tattoos and tattoo experiences Ive ever had. He designed an amazing tattoo for me and was great company the whole way. 10/10 will be going back for future work!

Me and my friend wanted our navel pierced so after looking out I found this place and am glad that I went to this place we felt really welcomed the store itself feel like home and makes you comfortable. He is very generous and very professional I was nervous but I didn’t even feel a thing and it was done quick. He guides you with after care and the pricing is great. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for piercing or tattoos.

Had an amazing each time I came. Matt pierced my industrial and Karina pierced the flat of my daughters ear. We both got what felt like VIP treatment. Definitely recommend The Chosen One Ink. We will be back!!

Great service love the placeMy daughter and I got industrial piercing and we love Matt.

Everyone is super nice. Me an my friend got piercings and Matt was great. Talked us through everything .. i was nervous at first but he made me feel calm by talking to me the hole time..he explained after care to us. I’m very happy with my experience. I will definitely be going back for future piercings and possibly tattoos.

I walked in and was greeted by an artist with 15 years of experience tattooing and evidently 0 years of customer service. She was rude, unfriendly, and unwilling to listen to my tattoo idea and placement options insistant that it could only go next to the memorial piece of my cousin because otherwise she was looking into nothing. She raised her voice at me and called me rude for telling my friend quietly that I could probably get the piece done by my home artist. Then continued to tell me that getting work done by multiple artists doesnt look good anyway and would make my arm look like a jigsaw puzzle. I went 10 minutes down the street to Urban Tattoo and immediately had an artist who was polite and willing to work with me and was able to place the tattoo in one of the original locations I asked her to put it in. He also charged me $150 less than she was going to charge!!!Once again Karinas supposed skill does not make up for her sub par personality

I got a tattoo a year ago from Josh, I love it so much! My artist communicated very well with me and understood the tattoo I wanted perfectly. I plan on getting another tattoo at this location soon as they have been the best tattoo shop I have been to so far!

Karina is the best hands down. She did a beautiful tattoo for me back on October that I love. She’s a magnificent artist and incredible talent with her tools. I’m pleased and have found my place to let her take that creative freedom to the next level. Love this place and it’s people.

I got an antitragus piercing today and my experience was incredible! Matt is super knowledgeable of the body’s anatomy and knew exactly what size and length bar to use. I’m coming back next month to get the other ear pierced. I’ll only go to him from now on! Highly recommend him for your piercings!

I recently got my nose pierced and it was a great experience. Matt is very professional, caring, and by far the best piercer I’ve ever had! Him and his wife are just lovely :)Update 2/4/2023: I just came back for more piercings!!! Once again Matt is a phenomenal person and great piercer

Chris did a really good job on my navel piercing i’m super happy with it!!

Got my nose and daughters nose piercing here about 4-5 years ago. Great service, friendly, and courteous. Was provided after care instructions as well. Recently came back to get my nipples pierced by Karina, she’s amazing! She was super attentive to me, listened, and did an outstanding job on my piercings. She knew exactly what she was doing which made the healing process a breeze! Came back again in December to get my septum pierced and my daughters ears pierced again by Matt. Super friendly and attentive. I’ve never had a bad experience with either Karina or Matt and will definitely be back soon!!!

I’ve been coming to get my piercings here for about 4 years now and I haven’t had any issues ever with any of my piercings. This is the best place to get piercings at! I’ve recommended all of my family & family friends and they all love it! Matt’s awesome 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I just got my septum done, and I love it! Im gonna come here for my other nose piercing soonedit: got snakebites done and it’s been a week or so and they haven’t hurt or swollen up! matt is super sweet and chill, would recommend to anyone who wants go get their body pierced

This is one of my FAVE shops in the dfw area! Matt and Karina give such an awesome vibe to this place and are welcoming and kind to EVERYONE! the other artists are also kickass and I can confidently say i will be returning :) keep up the amazing work!

I been following this shop on social media for a while and I visited recently at their new location on Abrams.I called one afternoon asking them if I could do a walk-in regarding a conch piercing I got at another tattoo place. Sometimes some studios wont even see you if you did not get your piercing done with them so thats why I called ahead. The guy answers the phone I tell him whats going on and he tells me he has to see it in person to really give me an answer, along with that he tells me he does charge a fee to change the piercing/take it out. Ok cool understandable, every shop has something like this in place.Background story, I got my conch pierced at another shop by an apprentice. This shop and licensed and reputable. I understood that she was still getting licensed and she was supervised. Cool, I get it; everyone has to start somewhere and i dont mind helping her out. I got 2 piercings from her and both had jewelry put in that I picked from their inventory. Both pieces of jewelry had a flat back. I got pierced and both jewelry went in, no problem, cool thanks I am happy moving on (thats was on July 28).I get to the shop and Matt greets me and walks me over to his station. Upon closer look it looks like the flat back of the conch jewelry I was wearing got swallowed by my ear! The way I understood it was when you get a piercing your skin is trying to heal and close off the hole. With a round back it keeps the jewelry moving compared to a flat back where it stays put. What I originally thought was the back of my jewelry had fallen out turned into my ear swallowing the back of the jewelry. From what Matt told me I came in at the right time or else I would have had to go to the ER to get it removed and a possible chance I could have gotten in a much worst situation.He had asked me where I have gotten it so I told him it was an apprentice at a shop and he pointed out the apprentice may have skipped the steps to really look to see if my ear and its curves were a good match for the kind of jewelry they put on me. I have a thick ear conch and when I got it pierced i figured it was tight because of the swelling but it was the jewelry giving me trouble. Matt said the apprentice should have seen my ear thickness and used a longer backpiece. An experienced piercer would have made the proper recommendations for a thick ear like mine. So Matt ended up making a small cut in the back of my conch so he could push out the jewelry. Sadly the best choice was to let that heal up and then revisit after a month to get it re-pierced.I appreciate Matts honesty and professionalism in this situation. He was very knowledgeable and great to talk to. He thanked me for coming in and helping me avoid the discomfort and possible trip to the ER. He also invited me back to see him when I was ready to get my conch re-pierced.Overall very knowledgeable staff, a friend, a clean shop, very cool décor and a great location. Parking is free outside but limited, overflow parking is available across the street at Fuzzys. The shop does charge a convenience fee when using a credit or debit card so bring cash if possible.

I got a coverup hand tattoo of a Japanese Rose by Josh and it turned out so beautiful! You can’t even see the tattoo that was originally there! He highly exceeded my expectations and I will definitely be going back to this shop to continue my sleeve! 10/10 Strongly recommend! Everyone there is super cool and friendly. Not an ounce of bad energy in this shop at all.

Everyone is super sweet. My daughter got her ears pierced and they were wonderful with her. I got a tattoo and it looks amazing.

Matt & Karina are the coolest people I’ve met. I’ve been coming to this shop for years now because of how comfortable and smooth my piercing experiences have always been with Matt. (He did my first nose piercing when I was 16!!!) Most recently, I went in and got my tongue pierced with Lady Karina. She did amazing as always and I can’t wait to get my tats by her, they are both complete BADASSES!!!!P.S. My tongue is badass, it’s healed and I get tons of compliments 😉Would recommend this shop, Lady Karina & Matt to anyone looking for a easy, comfortable experience :)

Matt pierced my daughter and I came back to get mine done too. Awesome guy! Great job. I love my new piercing. Quick, clean, good price, educational, knowledgeable... All around come here!

First time getting a tattoo and they were SUPER friendly and inviting, you could tell they loved what they do. The final product they gave me was amazing and looked like it was real (It was cyberpunk themed). If I ever get another tattoo I am for sure coming back!

Josh was amazing and he was the most welcoming person ever!!! my tattoo came out amazing and he is very reasonable! there was never a moment of silence with him!! if y’all go to anyone i recommend josh

Phat Matt is so ethical and professional! He got me and my family right; I would most def recommend to more family and friends.

Lady Karina cleaned up mine and my friend’s industrials and we seriously appreciated it. She did a great job and made sure we knew the right aftercare procedure. She also did my navel and she did AMAZING. I felt so comfortable and it felt really quick. She’s so funny too. Totally recommend going here for any piercing!!

Best tattoo shop around! It was my first time getting a tattoo, and they were very patient with me. Their service is unbeatable! Thank you Matt, Josh, and Karina! My fiancé and I will definitely be returning in the future.

Matt was wonderful! He has a very calming manner and made my daughter feel very at ease. He made several suggestions that help us make informed decisions. Most importantly, he was fastidious about cleaning before and after. Will definitely use him from now on and recommend him to everyone!!

Took my daughter to get her septum pierced and I’m so glad we chose The Chosen One Ink Tattoo Shop. The shop is super clean, super dope and super creative. Matt was very personable, professional, and super quick. He also gave me some great restaurant recommendations. We will definitely be back soon.

Everyone at the shop was so friendly and so so helpful! I was in from out of town and wanted a tattoo as a souvenir and Josh absolutely killed it!!! Not only is my tattoo amazing but he was so kind and made me so comfortable while getting tattooed! The place had such a cool, clean, positive atmosphere and I recommend it anyone!

This was hands down the best experience I have ever had a tattoo/piercing shop. Matt, the owner did my two friends and my septum piercings. He was AMAZING. He took the time to get the perfect placement on all of us and walked us through the whole process. Even the guy at the front was great. 100% the best place to be pierced in arlington. I will go back again! THANKS GUYS FOR MAKING SUCH A FUN EXPERIENCE FOR US! ❤️
