Ink Still Dripping

Carlos is the best tattoo artist to come to the Triangle. His studio is a masterpiece of beautiful artwork which I am greatly impressed by. He puts his heart into his art and extends this into his beautiful tattoo pieces! He can bring any dream to life while also showcasing his funny & witty personality which makes each tattoo or art buying experience that more pleasant. I highly recommend this studio!

The absolute best tattoo experience I’ve ever had very clean, professional, seriously the guy had on a 3 piece suit and black Air Force 1’s he literally stood on business. I traveled 6hrs to get ISD work by Spliff

Amazing work! The atmosphere is so welcoming and such a vibe! Inkstilldripping tattoo is literally the best shop in Durham to get tatted, Los made me feel super comfortable and also had refreshments! His pricing is very respectable for the work he does. Will definitely be back for any other work I get done!

Great vibes and conversations in the environment of the shop. Very business professional, all appointments are set and done on time!The art work on the walls are very amusing to talk about while receiving your services here at Ink Still Dripping.Overall great guy and great services. Highly recommend!

My true rating is 4.5 stars;Got my smiley done there, very fast and really didnt hurt at all. The guy who did it was nice and chill, however he absolutely refused to believe that my friend and I were 18, even after seeing our IDs 😭😭 Eventually, I guess he believed that we were old enough to get pierced but we were still kind of confused LOL. I will definitely be going back there though because prices are pretty reasonable ($30 for any above waist piercing) and he gave us a free bottle of cleaning solution!

Los is a very attentive and informed piercer. He helped me choose the best jewelry for my daith and nose piercing + also supported me through the after care process. His shop is cleanly and he is friendly and social.Los is an artist and that truly shows through his work. 5/5

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I cant recommend Ink Still Dripping enough! The atmosphere is welcoming, and the artistry is top-notch. Los truly brings ideas to life with incredible skill and creativity. Every tattoo Ive seen from this shop is a masterpiece. If youre looking for your next ink, this is the place to go!He even offers pool (billiards) lessons in shop.

Clean environment! I love how when you don’t know what you what he helps you draw it out! I got a freestyle today. He’s super pans makes sure you’re comfortable. Definitely a 5 star! My favorite Durham tattoo artist! Prices are reasonable as well and not extremely high.

Carlo was flexible for me to come in same day for a tongue piercing. It was comfortable, he was competent, and I was out of there in no time. The piercing itself was nice and smooth. Highly recommend!

Was looking to get a tattoo and came across this place. Long story short I’m so happy that I booked an appointment. The shop really was a vibe and the conversation with the artist was very inspiring. Can’t wait to introduce my friends to carlos

I’m new to the Durham area and losthespliff came across my instagram page. Decided to book with him and OMG this guy is so amazing my piercings was done so fast. And the whole process from booking to getting the service was top tier. His studio is so fire and filled with tons of art he made!!! 10/10 5 stars or 5 thumbs up

Stopped by for a tattoo and the owner was so nice and welcoming. Can’t wait to go back for my next one!!

Just booked a last minute tattoo appointment I thought I was coming in for a consultation but once los the spliff started to freehand draw on me I noticed he was ready right then! dude is super talented! Can’t wait to plan more tattoos with him

Got my birthday piercing and tattoo super clean and welcoming environment love lo he was super nice!! Come get tatted

Los is the best artist in Durham for all your tat needs. He’s Been the only guy doing my ink for the past 3 years now. Highly recommend, great artist, great shop and great experience every time.

Carlos has been a long time friend very funny down to earth warm person, I love his passion for tattooing and not only that he’s fast with amazing work, the shop environment is very welcoming home away from home with some ink therapy

I can’t say enough good things about INK STILL DRIPPING.. owned and operated by LOS THE SPLIFF… go there for a five star tattoo experience, and you’ll recognize what true HUSTLE looks like..

I’ve been to the shop and it is truly an amazing experience you wouldn’t want to miss! I also love the fact that he is very welcoming into the shop!! Definitely have to come here don’t miss out!

Los is a genuine person, he makes great connections with all of his clients. Mans a true artist most definitely!

Los is my first tattoo artist I ever went to and turns out to still be my only tattoo artist I’ve ever been to, I’ve gotten 15+ tattoos fromHim over the span of 5 years. Have never thought about seeing somebody new he’s makes the experience very easy and stress less

Very professional and affordable pricing!Has been the best for me and glad he was referred to me! Definitely will be the only person doing my tats from now on!

He is excellent. Didnt take long either! Thank you so much! I will definitely be back!

Hello yall this place is truly amazing and beautiful inside. The shop owner/piercer/tattoo artist is truly amazing because he cares about his customers and his artwork is beyond incredible. I would recommend this shop to anyone who wants good artwork in a clean and hospitable shop. Im happy he was able to get my jewelry in my holes that were almost closed on on two tragus ear piercings. Please know that you will not be disappointed if you come to Ink Still Drippin!! Very satisfied customer here!Ps- My daughter enjoyed it too

Amazing tattoo artist, quick and reasonable prices! Made sure I was comfortable and had snacks and waters for the clients!

Was very rude and unprofessional, screamed at us when I asked my friends to stand in the room with me with moral support told me I can leave if i wanted, even though i really wanted the piercing and made me wait so he could finish his convo with absolutely no one in the room. Got my piercing but at what cost 🤷🏾‍♀️ don’t go unless you wanna hear huffing and puffing the whole time

He is a copy and paste artist. He arrives late for his appointments. He takes hella smoke breaks and he gives you little too no advice about after care.

This guy is a talented tattoo artist!!!! 10/10 This was my 2nd time going to him and he did an amazing job.

Los was so professional & fast very neat & clean . I love my leg tattoo & will be back soon !!

Best Tatt man in Durham! Los has a comforting and fun environment and does quality work!

Honestly the best tattoo artist Ive been to, lines are super clean and he is very professional. By the way the prices are reasonable for the quality!!

Great experience, owner is super kind and has good pricing too. Definitely coming back for future services!

So easy to book. I literally booked a piercing came to my appointment told him what I want done and got it… in and out the shop less than 7 minutes

YYOOOO!!! this dude so cool… came 45 mins to get my 1st tattoo….. go check him out

I never knew piercings was so easy to get till I booked at this shop… Carlos I see u again soon

Prompt, professional, and laid back. He knows what he is doing, and makes you feel comfortable!! Such a vibe !!

The owner does tattoo piercings and tons of art! This shop definitely the best in Durham

Did an amazing job and quick and detailed. Best artist in the Raleigh Durham area.

Would give Los a 6 star rating if I couldNot only is his work awesome but he is the only late nighter in the Triangle. He did the DNR tattoos (one in each elbow) over two years ago amd they still look brand new. The other picture is a Pearl Jam quote he did today in under 10 minutes and it looks awesome. With over 30 tattoos of my own I felt completely safe and comfortable that his place is exceptionally clean, the equipment is sterile, yet the atmosphere is funky and fun

Came here to get a piercing on Friday 6/7/24 at 7:46pm and it’s says it’s open closes at 12am no phone number shame on you guys.!

Was such a nice and clean work space nice vibe and my piercings did not hurt at all! Took him maybe 3 minutes at most and he’s very sweet down to earth. Highly recommend!

Very professional establishment my tattoo came out amazing

Los is my favorite artist in Durham! He does amazing work at reasonable prices, in a large, clean, professional studio. I have two pieces by him so far, the Pikachu on my shoulder and an amazing sternum piece (not pictured). I will be back for more. Definitely recommend!

The place has good vibes, the ac was booming, nice and quick I recommend.

Came to Durham for the 1st time and found this shop!!! I’m so happy

Talented artist! Great work and easy to work with.. Coming back for sure!!

I went for my first tattoo and didnt give much advance notice. Ink Still Dripping made room for me in their schedule. I had visited several tattoo shops in the area and found some to be outdated and not that clean. Ink Still Dripping was light, modern and spotless. My artist looked at the design I brought in and suggested some improvements which were spot on!! This was exactly the advice and expertise I was looking for. It was done quickly and looks absolutely amazing!! He also fixed my friends botched tattoo! Highly recommended. Im a first responder and he took great care of me in service, price and quality.Update, I went back for my 2nd and third. Same great service, pricing and express availability. Other shops in the area arent as willing to assist at short notice. Great communication from Los.

I had a great experience @ Ink Still Dripping! My daughters and I got our tattoos with no problem here after getting the run around at another salon. Our artist was amazing!

Carlos the tattooist has a pleasant attitude, clean studio, and my experience was a good one. Me and my sister both received a great tattoo from Carlos!!This is my third tattoo from him and he also pierced my friends!!!He will also give you aftercare directions on how to take care of your tat or piercing....I have recommended him to many of my friends♡♡♡♥♥. you can tell he loves what he does!3 years later and Im still receiving wonderful tattoos from Los! Im thinking about getting a piercing - only because the jewelry selections are insane!!!!Conversation is ALWAYS an experience w/ LOS - keep up the GREAT work.

So quick and professional loved the vibe will be back soon!

I paid him to fix my tattoo on my wrist from a previous place. He didn’t turn the machine off and He ended up tattooing another part of my arm, he said “a lot of people would say you owe me sleeve”. I said “no, just fix it with something small”. He said he’d fix it and to let him know when I figure out what I wanted. I was in contact with him on and off trying to figure out a time when I finally figured out what I wanted, he was trying to charge me for drawing a big line on my arm. Never even texted back when I offered to book something else other than a tattoo. Very unprofessional and bad for business. If you gonna run one stand on your word!

Does an amazing job … great vibes everytime !!

I had a really good experience at Ink Still Dripping. It looked like I was the last customer of the day & he waited for me to get there. I had my nose pierced twice on one side. He pierced them so quickly, I barely felt it. I would highly recommend Ink Still Dripping.

The septum piercing I got here is super crooked. Also, it was implied i was a wuss during the appointment because I was nervous about the pain. For aftercare, he just had no idea. He gave me some tattoo soap to use, which I later found out was not something I should be using for my septum. I ended up in the ER with an infection because I unknowingly wasnt cleaning it right.As a chill millenial I really hate leaving bad reviews, but I cant let this one go.

Booked an appointment for 12:30 got there at 12pm . No one at the establishment. That’s not good business first impression should always be your best so I rate this experience as zero. But he was genuinely enough to send my deposit back.

Recently visited this studio with a’couple friends for some piercings (and a spur of the moment tattoo). Studio was super cool, & clean and all of our (four) piercings were done in the blink of an eye. Would definitely recommend this place for your next body modification!!

Great service, good customer support!

Dope tattoo spot fair prices good vibes

Carlos is TALENTED! I definitely recommend him before anyone else! He was very clean and professional and so gifted that he will make your dream a reality. He hand drew my friend’s underboob tat and it was simply amazing! He made our first tat experience something to remember! I will be visiting him again soon!

Booked through the website ( which doesnt have a good set up ) to get a nose piercing and was confused on even how to acquire the services. Set up an appointment, he never arrived at his own establishment until after I left. ( stayed outside for an hour, from 11 - Noon ). During which I attempted contact through multiple mediums. To which I received no response until after I had already vacated the premises.Once Im in contact, he suggests I can arrive at any time during the same day to make up for the appointment. When I reach out to confirm, the response time was after an hour or two.Finally arrive and when I walk in hes on the phone with the conversation on speaker. Discussing how painful nose piercings can be. Once I sit in the chair, I become a bit nervous and ask to pause for a second only for him to say to me, Man up . Then does the piercing before I even have a chance to respond.After the piercing, I ask what do I need to do to take care of the piercing. This man says.. go to Tik Tok.

Had my bellybutton re pierced by Carlo it didn’t even hurt at all and was not sore afterwards. He even gave me stuff to cure it at home. He was very nice and the price was awesome. Definitely will be going back!!!

I walked in with an idea of what I wanted but wasnt sure exactly how I wanted to do it. Los took my idea and made it into a piece of original art. I love it! Environment was super chill. I work in health care, so to see him using great sanitation in his establishment made me even more comfortable.

My piercing appointment was at 12:45 and the place is supposed to be open at 12 and he wasn’t even there. I called him like 6 times with no answer until he texted me that he was “on the way”. I waited 30 minutes after my scheduled time for him to arrive and he still didn’t so I left and got my piercing elsewhere.

I have had a great experience every time Ive visited this establishment. I have gotten 6 piercings from LostheSpliff since meeting him & looking forward to getting a few tattoo pieces. Hes very talented as an artist. The parlor is clean every time I visit & LostheSpliff practices excellent sanitation. The best tattoo & piercing experience Ive had this far. I will definitely be returning & bringing my friends & associates.

Easily booked a piercing online. Went in, it was super quick and he was really nice. Also, the studio is super dope with cool art, lounge area and a pool table!

The work speaks for itself!!! Great atmosphere!

Got a piercing from Los. Very clean and professional!!

Carlos does amazing work, really cool and is an artist through and through. A great experience and I’ll definitely be back! I’d give 10 stars if I could 🔥

First rate Artist. great prices and has been doing art his entire life. Good conversation with him and is very skilled cant wait to get more done by him

Very pleased with my three ear piercings that I received, as well as my sister got her nose pierced. Real cool guy...down to earth and...I’d definitely recommend his work.

Great customer service best in the city.

The owner is real nice to talk to while getting your services done. The vibe of the place is nice, this is my second tattoo getting done by him and he will be doing all my other ones

Los, hook me up today. I have plenty of tattoos but I wish he had done them all. Nailed it. I will be sending people to you when they need something doneAnd I will be back in the future. God bless Brother!

Loved the vibee!!! And got my ear pierced and he made it easier for me to get it done!! Definitely coming back for tattoos and another piercing soon!!

I had a great experience here, got my nose ring. I have been wanting it all my life but was afraid. They made me feel so at home and comfortable. Great prices. I definitely will be back. Follow losthespliff on intragram

The owner done really good I walked in and wanted a belly button piercing and he got it done for me

Got a great tattoo in under an hour. Highly recommend!

Carlos is amazing! Fantastic artist!!! Professional but fun attitude. Made everything easy and fun. Can’t wait to come back for my next one

I had a great experience and a great tattoo. He was super friendly, well spoken polite.

This was definitely a vibe work was quick and efficient

One of the best tattoo artists around! Extremely professional, great vibes , I love this shop, definitely recommend to anyone who wants dope custom pieces.

Los is a great artist. Not only did I get tatted I took quite a few of my ppl back to get tattoos. I also purchased some of his art work.

I took my 16 year old daughter here for 2 cartilage earrings. He was super nice and used very clean/antiseptic techniques. My next tattoo will be here.

The best tattoo place in Durham...I wish I could post my tattoo right now. Artwork is crazy. Waiting for his new spot open up.

Best Tattoo Place In Town

Best tats I ever!!! had he is a true artist and I love the work that he does .

Cool atmosphere. The people a friendly and funny. I had a great time while waiting. Will definitely be a repeat customer.

Greatest don’t get no better ♥️

Nothing but great experience every time I go. Ive gotten a few tattoos from Los so far and I am satisfied!

Carlo is the best. Very creative, talented, down to earth and taleneted. Great atmosphere also.

Owner doesnt communicate, made an appointment and got lost. Wouldnt answer phone, or texts...never contacted me back. Drove all the way to Durham for nothing. Very unprofessional.

I REALLY enjoyed the time that I spent with Los and my Tats that he did

Very professional, friendly.. Great artwork and nice location. Two thumbs up!!

Hired a cleaning company and then didnt pay his bill and ignored us. Pretty sketchy if you ask me.

Called ahead and was told to come.. when we got there the artist we spoke to wasnt there and nobody else was free so it was a wasted trip

Great place to get tats and The Bull City barbershop is a great place to get a cut.

Thanks Carlos!!

Love this place and love the work that the artist does.....true craftsmanship
