Tattoo Revival

I could write a book on how great this place is. Everyone is friendly, courteous, and make you feel comfortable when in the shop. I can say that the tattoo artist that I see is absolutely awesome. He makes me feel comfortable, keeps a check to make sure I’m okay. No doubt I would highly recommend this shop. I have had so many compliments on two of my tattoos that are on my lower arm. I send Jamie Reid my highest approval rating in style, work, outcomes, and his technique is absolutely painless to me. However, others are more squeamish to pain. Ladies you can also get your brows done! Absolutely the best shop to me in Winston Salem. And I still have several more to add to my arm. I definitely will not go anywhere else.

This place is so great, everyone is super friendly and makes you feel welcomed! Jamie has done all 3 of my tattoo and they are AMAZING! So obsessed!They No longer offer piercings or jewelry since 2021 but if you are wanting a Tattoo they are the place to go 100%!

I went for some piercing hardware due to old reviews, leading me to think they provided this service. Although they could not assist me, the staff was friendly and helpful with suggestions on where to go to get the assistance I was seeking. The shop was clean and well lit. I liked the tattoo examples I saw and will consider them in the future for my ink needs.

I love Justin!!! My friend and I have seen him multiple times and he is just so fun and comforting!! We will continued to get tattooed by him. He is the best!

Justin did a tattoo on very short notice for myself and my son in March due to circumstances beyond his or our control. He wasn’t beat up about it and was awesome to chat with! More importantly, my son and I are thrilled at the results. Flash forward a month later and I had the pleasure of sitting in the chair with Justin at the helm yet again. It was great! He is a professional artist, to say the least. Respectful, patient, considerate, and very laid back. I will be going back a 3rd/4th/5th time and on and on.1st Tattoo w/Justin - I got mine on the back of my right calf. My son got his on the inside of his right forearm. More in the solid black realm, with a good amount of complimentary shading.2nd Tattoo w/Justin - Koi fish on the right forearm. Brilliant color and scheme. Super stoked regarding the outcome.This establishment is top notch in my book.With Regards

Front lady is very kind and enthusiastic about helping you get what you need done . I loved how welcomed and at home i felt ❤️Awesome artists and judge free zone ! Would definitely recommend to anyone else who is looking for a badass peice done ✔️

I got my first tattoo here and Zack was absolutely awesome!! He was super calm and friendly, and my tattoo turned out wonderfully. I am so happy with it and would recommend this place 100%!!!

This place is the absolute BEST!! I have been going to Jamie for almost 4 years now. He does AMAZING original pieces and is FANTASTIC with cover ups! The atmosphere in the shop is chill. Justin, John, and Eric are super nice. The shop doesnt offer piercings anymore but should be your GO TO for tattoos!!

This shop is awesome! I have been tattooed by the guys at Tattoo Revival many times over the years. Always professional, highly skilled, and very friendly. The shop is always incredibly clean, and they provide a welcoming environment for all of their clients. For anyone looking through Google to find a piercing place, this shop no longer offers piercing services or jewelry. They stopped all piercing services back in 2022. If you are looking for an incredible place to get a quality tattoo from a friendly tattoo artist, this is definitely the place to go.

They do great work and are pretty laid back. They are more than willing to explain things to first timers. Solid group of artists.

I love Tattoo Revival! The artist are great people and very professional when it comes to properly tattooing individuals.John Slater is the only artist to tattoo me more than once. This is my go to spot

BOOK JAMIE!! He was so sweet & made me feel super comfortable during my touch up. I got a tattoo at another shop and had some scar tissue & issues with it regarding healing, and he gave me some great after-care tips. Super fast and convenient location in downtown WS. Would come back again! :)

Jamie Reid did an excellent job on my second tattoo that he has done for me. He listened to what I requested and executed it perfectly for me.

I’ve been to Justin several times now and he is the best!!! Definitely recommend

First time getting a tattoo here. Eric had time for walk-ins, so I stopped in. Eric is very friendly, professional, talented and does amazing work!!! The staff is very nice and the shop is very clean. Looking forward to my next tattoo!!!

Very friendly, very skilled tattoo artist, very professional…. This was my first time getting a tattoo…. He was as gentle as could be…I was very impressed with their work and everything about them ….shop very clean! If you looking for somewhere to get a tattoo ….go here ….you will thank me later!

I had an awesome experience getting pierced by molly. The shop was very clean and Molly is very knowledgeable about what she does and has a great personality. The piercings themselves I felt were very reasonably priced and I LOVE how they turned out. I’ll definitely be coming back for my next piercing!

Jamie was awesome. He did my tattoo last minute as a walk-in after the artist I had an appointment with at a different shop was a no show. He designed a custom piece that encompassed all I asked for, including nailing my personality to a tee. Will be going back to him for all future tattoos!!

My friends and I went here to get pierced this weekend. Jon was super awesome, he talked us through everything and took his time with us to make sure we got what we wanted and were comfortable. My friend was getting her bellybutton pierced for the second time and Jon took his time to make sure that her piercing was done better than the last time (she got her done at a sketchy place before) I got my cartilage pierced and felt super comfortable, Jon talked me through where the best place to put the piercing and Im so happy with it. Overall the place is super clean and everyone there is so nice and professional.

Got my nostril pierced here last August (2019) and had a great experience with Molly. she told me everything she was doing and made sure I liked the placement before she pierced it. it healed great with no issues and she shortened the barbell a few months after I got it to make it more comfortable in my nose. I still havent changed the jewelry yet, just wanted to make sure it was good and healed first! they use really high quality jewelry because mine hasnt fallen out once (one of my fears when I was thinking of getting it pierced is that it would fall out and heal/close back up). I really like that its a straight bar instead of other curved ones which arent as secure.

Got my first tattoos done of my daughters there yesterday with Zack and had a wonderful experience planning on going back

We took our daughter to get her navel peirced. Best experience I have ever had. Jon was great and so informative. He was polite and so professional. He made her at ease and did an awesome job. The shop is so clean and well put together. Entire staff was very polite and helpful. One of the nicest tattoo shops around. THIS place is #1 in my book.

Slater is awesome! Place us so clean and organized! Nice!

This shop is a hidden gem! I did lots of research prior to having my nose pierced and Tattoo Revival came out on the top of my list. They did not disappoint and even exceeded my expectations. The environment was professional yet relaxed and friendly. The shop was also very neat and clean. I was pierced by Jon who was a delight to work with. He’s such a kind soul. He was informative and had a calm demeanor which was most appreciated because I was nervous. He walked and talked me through every step. In the end it was a great experience and I have an awesome piercing! I’ll definitely be back and I would highly recommend this shop to anyone in search of top notch service.

I always have the best experience at Tattoo Revival. John has done my tattoos for years and he is always great. The shop and artists are extremely clean, professional and knowledgeable. I recently got a piercing and Molly was fantastic as well. If you are looking for a tattoo or piercing - this is the place to go.

Heard great things about tattoo revival from friends and they did not disappoint. The whole shop is VERY clean and tidy and everyone was super nice and fun to talk to. My mom and I got our noses pierced by Jon. He was hilarious and very knowledgeable. It was my first time getting my nose pierced and he made it a great experience. I also got my first tattoo from Brandon. He makes quick work, but he is amazing at what he does. I highly recommend tattoo revival to anybody looking for a quality tattoo for a reasonable price.

Molly is awesome! Super sweet, knows her stuff and made the experience great. Ive gotten two piercings from this shop (septum 2017, 2nd earlobe 2020) and each time I was not let down. Plus... they are very COVID safe! ❤️❤️ Cant recommend more. And Jennifer was of great help with scheduling. Go support this business.

I have all my daughters and my piercings done by Jon or Molly. Never had a single issue. Received my first tattoo by Mallory at 45 years old. I now have five and have a consult for number 6. Her work is beautiful and heartfelt. She designed a memorial piece for my dad last year and now is working on my moms. I would trust no one else.

The only place I go to get my art work done. These guys are the best. True artist with the passion for tattooing excellence.

Great place, in my brief experience. Very clean, SUPER friendly.I just went in to get some jewelry, cause the bead fell off my earring. Molly (I heard her called) greeted me with a friendly hello and helped me to find what I needed. She told me that Jon (I think thats the right name) would be happy to switch out the earrings for me as soon as hed finished with his client. I could see he was just finishing up with someone and was still decked out in gloves and face mask.He came to get me from the waiting area and was also very friendly and warm. He verified what I was looking for and assured me he could help. I sat on the table, and he put on mask and gloves again and switched out my jewelry. While doing so, he asked about my day, and we had a really nice, genuine conversation. He even sent me home with a couple extra beads, cause I told him Im prone to losing them.I make such a big deal of the friendliness because Ive been in many, many tattoo/piercing shops that were precisely the opposite -- that felt like if you werent visibly covered in tattoos you werent cool enough to even come through the doors and they were doing you a favor by allowing you to speak to them. But this place is so welcoming and feels like somewhere anyone can go and be comfortable getting what they want without judgment. There were a couple of young people in there, one getting a service I think, and one accompanying a parent, and everyone seemed right at home.Good show.

I went here last Saturday as a walk-in, the guy with long hair sitting down playing on his phone was not very nice. He seemed bothered he had to get up for a walk-in because the walk-in guy wasnt there. He told me to come back tomorrow at 3:00. I asked if someone else is here first then what? I asked if I can make an appointment and he rolls his eyes and says with a down-payment. I politely said Ill see you tomorrow at 3. 😉This place is trash and I would never give them a penny and I suggest you dont either. They only want customers that walk in conveniently for them.Very poor service

I’ve gotten several pieces from John Slater. Awesome guy, great shop, beautiful tattoos!

I’ve gone here for almost all my piercings and it’s the only place i trust. The piercer, Molly, is amazing. She’s super sweet & caring and will make sure it is done correctly and efficiently. I’ve never had a single problem with any of my piercings from here and the jewelry is top quality. Couldn’t recommend this place more!!!

Great Place !! Been there several times in the last 2 months. Everyone is super nice with a laid back atmosphere. John Slater is awesome, super cool dude and top notch artist.. He totally revived my grateful dead tattoo from 25 years ago. Its now the colored dancing bear that should be trucking along. Thanks John for a great tat revival! Jori

If I ever want another tattoo, Tattoo Revival is where I will go. Jamie did a beautiful black-and-white tattoo and made my tattoo idea better than I imagined. He was very kind and got me through the process smoothly. :)

Awesome. Slater and the crew are amazing artists and respected in the community. They do quality work and make sure that you are as comfortable as possible during the tattooing process. Highly recommend!

Great artists, fair prices, amazing atmosphere. Whats not to love? Molly Dix is incredibly professional & I wouldn’t go anywhere else for piercing, she pierced my 6 year olds ears & it was a wonderful experience - I felt good knowing that the earrings wouldn’t cause a reaction, and the prices are super fair for the quality of product. Lovey gemstone options. The tattoo crew is also incredible, and I have gotten several pieces from John Slater. I am constantly giving out his card to people who stop me in public to ask about my ink. Again, the costs are super reasonable & you should definitely invest in your tattoo here. I would also say that the artwork there is awesome, like a mini art gallery. They are very supportive of BIPOC & LGBTQ so it’s a super safe place.

We had a really great experience at Tattoo Revival. Everyone was very laid back and friendly. We had a group of 4, we called the day before we wanted to come and they were able to get us all in and out within about an hour. We are very pleased with the results of all of our tattoos. We would definitely return here!

The waiting area is calm, clean, and well-furnished.The staff is attentive and honest, helpful and knowledgeable in both piercing and ink related inquiries.The atmosphere is laid-back and very relaxed, and the team often exhibits what seems to be a wonderful relationship with one another.Highly recommended all around, be it your first, median, or final session. I very seriously doubt youll be disappointed.Plus its in an amazing downtown art district area, and adjacent to multiple excellent shops and restaurants. Just parking and walking around is an experience all its own.

As a “senior” coming in for my first tattoo, I came with high expectations after glowing recommendations. Did not disappoint! The entire experience was professional, clean, relaxing, and fun. John was advertised as the best and he is. Post-care was well explained and emphasized resulting in a great outcome.

I came here for a walk-in nose piercing and everyone was so kind and welcoming! Jon was friendly, professional, and hospitable throughout my time with him. I even had my dog with me and they welcomed him with open arms (and a few treats, so big points for that).

Got a Helix piercing here and it was a great experience! Theyve got a lot of good covid precautions in place so make sure to get an appointment beforehand as they dont take walk ins right now. Cash only but they have an atm in the store. Molly was a great piercer and very knowledgeable!

A few weeks ago I got my nostril pierced from Jon and he did a beautiful job! I felt comfortable in the shop and it didn’t even hurt that bad. ( for me at least). If you’re looking for a good piercing definitely go here:). I’ll also be back soon for my second tattoo!

Always come here for my piercings. Love that they use titanium as I have severe allergic reactions to any other metal!Molly is super cool and has so much experience- she makes piercing a breeze.

I went to Tattoo Revival to have and earring back replaced. It was time for me to size down the back for my upper lobe piercing. I had it pierced on vacation 6 weeks ago and have had it in with no issues since then. I went to Molly on a Saturday and by Monday morning my earring was gone. Luckily it turned up 2 days later. I then noticed that the back Molly gave me was bigger in diameter than the one I went in with. The earring simply wasn’t secure. Molly agreed that the back was bigger than the original but didn’t have one that was smaller and wouldn’t refund my money because “it’s their policy”. Such a poor business practice. Bad vibe all around.

The tattoo parlor is clean and smells so good walking in (they were difussing essential oils and I loved it). The piercer was amazing. She was extremely informative and made you feel welcomed right away. Everything was super sterilized and I felt very at ease my whole visit. I definitely recommend this place.

Went for a replacement tragus earring and their selection was great! Molly was super sweet and helpful. Their covid practices were also really thorough. Definitely will go back when/if I decide on my next piercing.

Whole shop is VERY friendly!My husband and I went in for 3rd eye dermal Andy is very honest, upfront and professional.He walked us thru every question we had and had a gentle touch!Very reasonable prices an selection of jewelry!I HIGHLY recommend Andy and will definitely be coming back His deck art is phenomenal as well .

I have been in the shop now for a tattoo from Mari, lobe piercings for myself and my 10 year old daughter from Molly and most recently a nostril piercing from Jon. The shop is always extremely friendly, super clean and just a really great environment. I drive up from Greensboro and will absolutely be back!

Molly was wonderful with our 5 year old. She got her ears pierced and did not experience any pain. Everything was so clean. Would definitely recommend them for any of your piercing needs.

Took my 12 year old daughter to get her ears pierced. Molly is FANTASTIC!!!!! Second day ,and earlobes are as if shes had them pierced forever. No swelling , bleeding or scaring. My daughter said her ears dont hurt at all.

Amazing experience! I cannot say enough good things about Eric and Tattoo Revival. This was my first tattoo in my 36 years of life and Eric absolutely knocked it out of the park. Will ALWAYS recommend them and I will DEFINITELY be back!

I haven’t had the pleasure of getting tatted there but I have friends who swear by them. I can however say that Molly is the best piercer I’ve ever had, and there’s been many from Nj to Nc. Friendly, knowledgeable, and comforting, she’s the best. Great shop as well.... ✌🏼🤘🏼

Awesome service with great artist and people. Jamie Reid did my tattoo and its so awesome. Also they dont do piercings, they havent since 2021.

I had a great experience! Slater provided a comfortable atmosphere for me as did the other artists. Clean and professional. Courteous of your privacy while being tattooed. For sure coming back. Thanks guys!

Called to attempt to schedule a tattoo and the person on the phone straight out said they didnt want to do it. Not so great customer service.good to know my business isnt needed, Ill be sure to pass it along.

Very professional, very friendly staff. been going for over 2 years now and have no complaints. they do NOT do piercings anymore

I’ve been getting tattoos at this shop since they day they opened and wouldn’t go anywhere else ever. Justin Pope is the man John Slater is amazing check them out

Just had my nostril pierced here, been thinking about it for a while but we were having lunch across the street so I walked on in while we were waiting on our food.. in and out in under 30 minutes. John was so sweet and patient and answered all of my (numerous!) questions. And it doesn’t hurt that bad ;)

If I could give Tattoo Revival more stars I would. From the super talented Tattoo Artists and the over all Good Vibes of the entire staff you will be extremely happy you came here for your Tattoo or Piercing. Be sure to call and schedule a consultation in advance. These Artists are in demand. Thanks again Sl8ter for our amazing tatts.

Its the best. My husband and Ive had several tats done by Jamie and Eric. Just go there!

My sister and I got matching tattoos (her fourth, my first.) Justin Pope gave us a great experience!! He made it easy and fun. Would highly recommend him.

Justin did a great job with my tattoo! It was my first one. He made sure I was comfortable throughout the process and made sure I knew how to take care of my tattoo afterwards.

My first two tattoos were done this past Saturday by Mallory, half sleeve and smaller on my shoulder, she did incredible job, I will be back for another half sleeve on my other arm soon thanks to her making it so painless and beautiful.Thank you Mallory for everything.

Did not have to wait for long, Pope was very patient with me and an amazing artist. Such an inviting and friendly environment. Extremely reasonable prices as well. For sure will be coming back :)

I travel for work and last couple yrs I been getting tattoos from different artists in different states , Tattoo Revival hands down has the best atmosphere and artist I’ve encountered, from the assistant to Fenny who did my tat , I enjoyed the company and conversations , I’ll definitely return for another one or two , thanks to everyone at tattoo revival and especially Fenny

John Slater has a a kickass style and a real eye for Asian style pieces. 11/10 would recommend anyone at Tattoo Revival.

Have got multiple tattoos at this shop. Some great quality and awesome artists!

I called then and they said nobody in NC does piercings for 14 year olds. Like; yes, they do. They also said they don’t do piercings at all even though the reviews say otherwise.

Best place for high quality piercing in Winston. Molly was super professional. Really clean shop. Highly recommend.

Precise and accomodating. They squeezed us in last minute for an important tiny tattoo and we still felt like we had their full attention. Came out lovely

The artists here are amazingly talented! You can look up any of their portfolios. Every single one is awesome. I aim to get some work done by each one of them.

Very professional and high quality tattoos! Definitely recommend

Justin Pope was fantastic as usual! Great atmosphere!

Everyone get tattooed by Mallory Blalock right now! She is the best. The two tattoos I have from her are by far my favorites and the most complicated ones I have.

Excellent!!! Best experience by far. Molly is top notch when it comes to piercings!

I got a tattoo from here a few weeks ago. They were really nice and flexible. I really loved how it turned out.

Love this shop!!!They are all so wonderful!!!

Love the whole place I really do, but when your artist takes 4 smoke breaks that last 15-20 mins that’s really unfair and unprofessional.

I love this place! Molly is awesome and made me feel comfortable! I would recommend to anyone!

Best shop in Winston. Very professional and their artists cover an array of styles.

Today was my first time but most def won’t be the last.! I love this place, everyone was amazing and the pricing is GREAT !

Every worker was super professional and nice. Very clean environment as well. Their work is perfection.

Want Ink? Need Ink?Go See John or any of the other game artists at Tattoo Revival!!

Just went here for the first time, amazing work, fair pricing and good vibes 💯💯💯

Moly is amazing with piercings. I’ll be returning for all my future piercings!

Got my first tattoo on Saturday with Jamie and I love it!!!!

Love it! Very happy with the work I had done. Eric is great!

Awesome tattoo spot! Would recommend John Slater to anyone wanting ink!

Disrespectful, made up a lie saying we were going to do our own tattoos and kicked us out the shop.

Everyone there was super terrific! I’ll definitely be going back!

Justin did an amazing job! Highly recommend this place!!

All of the artists are incredible. They do great work.

Cool artists. Reasonably priced. Nice work.

Best artists, best atmosphere and best service in Winston Salem.

Awesome experience there. Everyone was welcoming and friendly.
