Body of Art Texarkana

Bre’Ana is AMAZINGGGGG!!! Me and my best friend got walk-in raccoon tattoos and she stayed late just for us. She had an amazing attitude! (even when my 6’7 bsf was being a baby about “the pain”) Vibes of the inside of the building were super cool , very personalized! Bre’Ana even had snacks and drinks ready and available for customers!!!! 10/10 would recommend her to anybody! She took her time and really made sure my tattoo was perfect!! Definitely going to come back next time I am in town !! Pricing was well worth it!!

I would make two separate reviews, but at the end of the day everything was fine and worked out. TLDR: Bre is an amazing artist, has a great vibe and is very skilled. But my experience wasnt the best with the shop piercing guy! First I would love to give a HUGE shout-out to Bre!! I was honestly terrified to get another tattoo after the first tattoo experience I had two years earlier, but Ive always seen me as a person with a decent amount of tattoos and decided that if I could just find the right tattoo artist all would be good for me. I told my mom that I was thinking about getting another tattoo, and she actually got really excited about the idea. Which was shocking considering she was there with me when I got my first one. She told me that when she was door dashing food she had delivered to body of art and everyone there was super nice, clean, and professional. She encouraged me to check out the shop. And so I did. I called before hand to see if it would be ok if I dropped in to check out some of the artists work, and just over the phone they were super nice. When I went to check out the work Bre just had an amazing vibe and I knew right away she was the person I wanted my next tattoo from. After messaging with her we set a time and I decided to go with a design on one of her sheets. When I got there she could tell I was a bit nervous and assured me that she was gonna take care of me during that tattoo. She did an amazing job and I love the tattoo so much. Over all she showed she was a really skilled and fast working artist! And she very clear with after care instructions! I have already went back to her one time after my first experience and plan to continue going back when I have the funds for another tattoo.On the other hand...after my second tattoo I was looking to get another piercing as I have a few but my normal guy was away for a good while so I decided to give the piercing guy at there shop a chance. I wanted my third lobe piercing done on both sides. I had him look at my ears and see if I had proper room for them, he told me what the price would be to get it done (60) and that he could definitely do it. I had to run and do some things before I came back to get the piercing done, so we texted and set up a time, and once again confirmed the price. When I got back later to get the piercing he started talking about trying to change the price as it may go into the cartilage and those are more expensive piercings. I told him I could do the new price (cant remember what it was but it was at least $30 higher). He quickly back peddled and went back to the original price when I told him I just didnt have the funds for that price and Id just have to pass and apologized for not being able to do the new price ( this happened before I signed the contract agreeing on price and for consent). The piercing went ok. We didnt go into cartilage as I did have enough room thankfully. I just found the whole interaction very weird and the cloak he wore and the dim lighting of the room was a little off putting but i know that other two things are just personal things and was at no fault of him. I did end up getting a pretty bad infection in my piercings though (also I dont blame him), the reason I say this is because while my cartilage was able to hadle standard piercing metal my lobes were not (I had my other lobes done at a very young age at Walmart and Clairs where we used real gold). So just a warning that lobes are a lot pickier than cartilage ig.

Quest did an amazing tattoo! And Allen is awesome!!. Will 💯% recommend and return every time!!

Body of Art is an amazing place to go for tattoos. This was my first tattoo and when my artist got sick they immediately rescheduled me with another artist for the same day. I got rescheduled with David, who is a god-sent. David not only reworked my concept to make it better, but calmed my first tattoo anxiety. He also took my unique challenge of having a disability that causes shaking in my body like a champ. He made sure I was comfortable and kept tattooing even though my shaking which mustve been a challenge. It has now been 3 days later and those in my family who have tattoos say that my healing is some of the best theyve seen and that the art looks amazing. Im in love with my new body art and if I want any more in the future, I will definitely be returning to body of art!

Matt is a great artist. I have gone to him for all my art work. Very professional and helpful.

Quest did an amazing job on my tattoo. I had a tattoo in mind and let him free hand it and add his own style to it. Definitely recommend coming here. Everyone is super chill and make the environment comfortable.

Guys I was so nervous about getting my helix pierced, but I am so glad Josh was the one to do it. Walked right in, didnt need to make an appointment. He was so nice and professional. He kept me talking and calm the entire time. This was my first piercing with a needle instead of a gun, so I didnt know what to expect. He showed me exactly where the piercing would go and what to expect. I was honestly worried about nothing. I highly recommend Josh at Body of Art!

Not a good experience at all! Called before time to make sure we had everything we needed for my daughter’s belly button piercing. Drove 2 hours to only find out that my daughter needed a state issued id which she does not have because she just turned 14. We had my id and her birth certificate. Just disappointing because we called twice to make sure we had everything, since we were driving a couple hours.

I simply asked for my tattoo to be purple and he started with black and I noticed and he proceeded to try and mix it with purple and make it fade but it looks awful, I need to come see if someone can fix it or get partially refunded but I live 2 and half hours away

Called and asked if they did walk-ins on Sundays and BreAna was so sweet and professional from start to finish and she did such a great job on my tattoo! I am extremely pleased not only with her work but the whole shop itself! Positive vibes only was the atmosphere and it was very professional and super clean! I was very impressed! I will definitely be back to see Bre!

Best tattoo shop in the area! Clean, friendly, and professional. Ben is the best for all your black work needs! Every artist there has something to offer for everyone! Check them out!

I would give zero stars if it was an option. I went to have a few pieces of jewelry changed because the balls unscrewed a few days ago and I couldnt find them. Upon entering the shop, I didnt like the vibe but proceeded against my better sense of judgement. No one greeted me even though one of the artists looked me in the face upon entering. There was only one other customer in the shop already receiving a service. Then, some person called from behind a desk towards the back offering assistance. I told him my request and he explained it could be done if his assessment of the site was OK. Upon pulling my hair back to show him, he immediately said I cant do it because its irritated. This was about a 1 second assessment. I explained to him what happened and that the piercing isnt irritated. His response, Ive only been doing this for 15 yrs. Needless to say, I left. His entire attitude the whole time I was there was very nonchalant and unhelpful. He didnt want to service me from the moment I walked in the door. So do not spend your money here, especially if youre naturally a bit tan.It appears someone either removed this review or made it to where it couldnt be easily viewed. Horrible customer service!

Quest was awesome! Tattoo turned out perfectly! Highly recommend!!

Zeek produced some wonderful tattoos on me Yesterday! Ive also been tattooed by Caleb and they are just both so talented. Josh is s sweetheart and easy going. He really puts you at ease through the piercing process. Definitely will be back!

Josh is great got my tongue repierced and I was so nervous and he was so slick I didnt even know he had already done it definitely will be coming back for the rest of my piercings

Had a very comfortable and fast cheap experience. They were awesome

I can not say enough, about this place. I have always been welcomed and treated with the up most respect. I love the owner she is awesome!! So If your looking for a new place or in need of a change, please come see this location first. My two favorite artist are Zeek and Caleb...they are the best around hands down. They can do pretty much anything you can think of and Zeek can take a picture of someone and make it look in just as real! Come see this place and see for your self... you won’t be disappointed. Oh and if you need something pierced they have someone (Josh) that does that also, Josh has done all of mine and I won’t go anywhere else!!

Josh was awesome. His experience piercing is unmistakable and super professional. My experience was fantastic and I highly recommend!!! Also Jessica is a fantastic tattoo artist check her out!

Love this place, friendly atmosphere, very experienced and I will definitely be going back for more. Allan gave me my first tattoo and made me feel so at ease.

Shayla and Ben are two of the most talented tattoo artists in the state of Texas and the new shop they just opened is amazing. Shayla also offers microblading and it is some of the best work you will find anywhere. I really love mine!

Caleb was very gentle and always polite. Good tattoo artist. Didnt hurt at all. I am so pleased with my new ink. Memorial for my late husband, finally got it.

Awesome place to get piercings, Josh has amazing professionalism and a kind and soothing way of speaking to you while doing the piercings so that you know whats going on during and keeps you calm if youre nervous in the slightest.
