Barrio Tattoos & Piercing

Been going to Abraham since he was an apprentice, best tattoo artist by far. Glad to know i found my permanent artist. Every artist is great but Abraham is the man to go to.Also got a few piercings from Russ he’s fantastic

I highly recommend this shop! This is one of the most comfortable shops I’ve ever been to. Not only is the staff always kind and welcoming, but they are all so skilled. There are talented artists for all styles. I’ve gotten all my tattoos here with Abraham and have always left beyond satisfied with his work.I’ve also received a piercing here from Russ. He’s very professional and gentle. He makes sure to educate customers about the aftercare of their piercings.

Russ and his apprentice were very professional and personable. Really enjoyed talking with him and getting the music recommendation during the jewelry change and piercing. Gentle and used aseptic technique. Very clean shop that’s easily accessed off the 10. Driveway sneaks up on you, so watch for the sign. Will be back!!!

I’ve gotten 3 piercings from Big Russ and he’s the best. He knows what he’s doing and will take his time to make sure you absolutely love the placement/has great input on how placement could change to look better. I recently got a helix piercing done from him and I felt zero pain afterwards. I feel like it’s due to how he does it and the very clear cleaning instructions.

Always have the best experience at Barrio. Abraham has taken care of me, my homies, my family, and coworkers. I’ve sent everyone to him, and they all leave happy. He’s an amazing artist, has a light hand, and great line work. Would recommend to anyone looking to get a great piece!

The entire staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. That automatically ranks high on my list. I only needed jewelry taken out, however I am considering a tattoo from one of their artiats after my very pleasant experience. Thanks a bunch.

My daughter got her nose pierced here by Big Russ. He did a great job, he listened to her when she told him where she wanted the piercing and was very kind, moving the marking twice to make sure she was happy before doing the piercing. He obviously kept a clean station (the whole place was super clean) and made sure to let us know that he guarantees his piercings and will swap the jewelry for free when shes ready. She has had a couple piercings before but this was one of the most positive experiences. You can tell he really cares about his clients!

I’ve gotten two piercings from Big Russ at the shop and I absolutely love coming here! Everyone is super nice, the shop is really calm and laid back, and Russ is amazing at his job. He always explains what the procedure is for each new piercing and he always explains what he’s doing as he’s piercing as well. I felt super comfortable and safe and will always recommend this shop to anyone who asks where to get piercings or tattoos!

Very small location that couldnt accommodate the level of business coming through the door. Took upwards of 30 minutes to be acknowledged. We ended up leaving before we could be seen as we werent impressed. Really wanted to like this place. Hopefully they can turn it around :(

Excellent laid back shop with good prices that neither compromise quality, nor undervalue the artists’ skill. I’ve gotten tattooed by Aldo and Abraham and both were realistic about my ideas and how to execute them into beautiful tattoos that have all healed perfectly! There are other artists with other styles in the shop so I’d say it’s absolutely worth a visit, especially if you’re sick of overrated downtown shops or wary of seedy or unsanitary conditions.It’s normal to see a child getting their first pair of earrings there, or a guy getting a tattoo of a centipede on his skull. Come as you are!

Took my 5 month old baby girl to get her ears pierced with Big Russ. He was amazing, super patient and gentle with her. Gave us clear post care instructions and his info in case I had any questions. 10/10!

Had my 3 y/o granddaughters ears peirced here. Very clean and patient with a young child. Nearly no tears. Thank you. Her earrings are beautiful on her.

Great Artistry! Relaxing Atmosphere! Good Value!! Abraham is a fantastic Artist!!

Walked in and love the hand made flash tattoos, would recommend for anyone looking for true artist

My 1st time experience meeting Eli Hes a very shy and quiet worker but once getting to know him he made me feel very comfortable and trusting right away. He has tattooed some pretty sensitive areas that normally normally paint the pain tolerance would be too much. Eli has done my chest and my neck, both of which I barely felt, he knew how to keep me calm he was light handed, the work has came out beautiful and I will be going back for more. The shop is clean and the rest of the crew is very friendly and its a fun place to sit for hours, They allow you to use things to keep yourself still such as watching TV or listening to music the music or or keeping you distracted with jokes and funny stories. Ive recommended Eli to all of my friends friends and I suggest I suggest you do the same.

Big Russ, was excellent with my daughter and her piercing. He talked to her and explained the process. She was totally comfortable getting her nose pierced.

Great atmosphere,great customer service my daughters go to for all of her piercing,

I would highly recommend coming in. If you need any type of piercing I came in with my 11 month old daughter to get her ears pierced. He was so patient with my daughter and gave me a lot of information For keeping her piercings clean

Big Russ is the best! I highly recommend going to him for any piercings. He has done my septum, nostril, daith, and now smiley and I always leave super happy with his work!

So far I have received two separate tattoos from Abraham and left each time completely happy with his work. He added a Sailor Jerry type american traditional turtle to the back of my arm with the latititude location where I received my Shellback in the Navy and also placed a design personal to me on the interior of my forearm. Very proud to show off the work he has done.

Ive been going here since they opened, and I absolutely love this place! Abe (@bruh.ham on Instagram) and Big Russ have done all my tattoos and piercings respectively and I always leave super happy. I really really recommend this place!

Had an amazing experience here with my tattoo artist Eli!! Does awesome work and did a great job and exactly how I wanted it

Just got my navel pierced here yesterday the piercer was amazing and it didn’t even hurt!

Such an awesome environment! Ive been there twice with two different artists (Abraham and Kat). I felt very comfortable and loved how patient they both were. Definitely need to go back! 🤘✒️

Eli is great! Ive gotten a few tattoos done by him. Hes super friendly, makes the tattoo experience fun! Hit him up for an appointment.

Eli was my tattoo artist he was kind and professional he showed he had a passion for what he does by making sure I like the positioning of my tattoo the size down to the shading it was an amazing experience!

Abraham does solid work. So far 2 different pieces from his and not only is he clean and light with his hand but can do his work very quick and still looks great.

Big Russ highly recommend for Piercings. He was super nice, calm and patient with all of our questions. Great service!!!!

I love coming here for my tattoos. I have gotten 5 tattoos and 1 piercing, and every-time has been such a good experience. I recommend this place to all my friends !!

Best in Tucson!

A place that looks clean, has a good atmosphere, and workers who show that they love their jobs. Here I come to get 3 piercings, and 5 tattoos and the truth is that they have a good hand for art and piercings and show that they care about their clients.

Abraham is the best! I got all my tattoos done. Russ also recommends it! 100000/10!
