Only shops with at least 25 reviews qualify; ties go to the shop with more reviews. Ordering is computed at build time from two facts per shop — its Google rating and its Google review count. One listing per street address, and nobody paid for a position. ## Ranked shops | # | Shop | City | Rating | Reviews | Reviewers mention | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | [Sinners Tattoo Studio and Supply](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/rowlett/sinners-tattoo-studio-and-supply.md) | Rowlett | 5.0 | 1,300 | American Traditional, Japanese / Irezumi, Realism / Portrait | | 2 | [Black Pines Gallery](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/texarkana/black-pines-gallery.md) | Texarkana | 5.0 | 366 | American Traditional, Aftercare Products, Custom Tattoo Designs | | 3 | [Urban's Tattoo & Piercing Studio](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/arlington/urban-s-tattoo-piercing-studio.md) | Arlington | 4.9 | 3,700 | American Traditional, Script / Lettering, Realism / Portrait | | 4 | [Arlington Ink](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/arlington/arlington-ink.md) | Arlington | 4.9 | 2,800 | American Traditional, Realism / Portrait, Walk-ins Welcome | | 5 | [Urban's Tattoo & Piercing Studio South](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/arlington/urban-s-tattoo-piercing-studio-south.md) | Arlington | 4.9 | 1,700 | American Traditional, Script / Lettering, Realism / Portrait | | 6 | [Rebel Muse Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/dallas/rebel-muse-tattoo.md) | Dallas | 4.9 | 1,200 | American Traditional, Japanese / Irezumi, Realism / Portrait | | 7 | [Ink Empire](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/ink-empire.md) | Austin | 4.9 | 1,100 | American Traditional, Japanese / Irezumi, Black & Grey | | 8 | [Pink Cobra Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/fort-worth/pink-cobra-tattoo.md) | Fort Worth | 4.9 | 549 | American Traditional, Walk-ins Welcome, Custom Tattoo Designs | | 9 | [Ink Couture Tattoos](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/ink-couture-tattoos.md) | Austin | 4.9 | 513 | Minimalist / Micro, American Traditional, Fine Line | | 10 | [2Groovy Studios LLC Art Collective & Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/plano/2groovy-studios-llc-art-collective-tattoo.md) | Plano | 4.9 | 312 | American Traditional, Fine Line, Geometric / Mandala | | 11 | [Black Dagger Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/black-dagger-tattoo.md) | Austin | 4.9 | 163 | American Traditional, Custom Tattoo Designs | | 12 | [Royal Tiger Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/royal-tiger-tattoo.md) | Austin | 4.9 | 81 | American Traditional, Custom Tattoo Designs, Online Booking | | 13 | [Forever Art Tattoo & Piercing Studio](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/corpus-christi/forever-art-tattoo-piercing-studio.md) | Corpus Christi | 4.8 | 387 | American Traditional, Black & Grey, Realism / Portrait | | 14 | [The Austin Tattoo Co.](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/the-austin-tattoo-co.md) | Austin | 4.8 | 319 | American Traditional, Walk-ins Welcome, Piercing Services | | 15 | [Inkaholics tattoo company](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/denton/inkaholics-tattoo-company.md) | Denton | 4.8 | 231 | American Traditional, Black & Grey, Walk-ins Welcome | | 16 | [Resurrection Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/resurrection-tattoo.md) | Austin | 4.8 | 152 | American Traditional, Fine Line, Japanese / Irezumi | | 17 | [Southside Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/southside-tattoo.md) | Austin | 4.7 | 253 | American Traditional, Fine Line, Japanese / Irezumi | | 18 | [Cat Tattoo](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/addison/cat-tattoo.md) | Addison | 4.7 | 992 | American Traditional, Piercing Services, Custom Tattoo Designs | | 19 | [All Saints Tattoo North & Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/all-saints-tattoo-north-piercing.md) | Austin | 4.6 | 261 | American Traditional, Fine Line, Japanese / Irezumi | | 20 | [All Saints Tattoo & Body Piercing](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/all-saints-tattoo-body-piercing.md) | Austin | 4.6 | 377 | American Traditional, Fine Line, Black & Grey | | 21 | [Atomic Tattoo - South](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/austin/atomic-tattoo-south.md) | Austin | 4.4 | 454 | American Traditional, Black & Grey, Aftercare Products | | 22 | [713 Tattoo Parlour](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/houston/713-tattoo-parlour.md) | Houston | 4.5 | 1,400 | American Traditional, Fine Line, Black & Grey | ## Related - [Traditional tattoo shops by state](https://www.localtattoos.com/best/traditional.md) - [Tattoo shops in Texas](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas.md) - [The best tattoo shops in Texas](https://www.localtattoos.com/texas/best-tattoo-shops.md) --- *Source: [LocalTattoos.com](https://www.localtattoos.com/best/traditional/texas/).
