Wow.  There is something in the water in Denton, TX that just produces incredible tattoo artist. There isn't enough space to list all the talented names.  But if you're looking for a black and gray portrait/realism there isn't a better studio fit for you.  When I first did research on the shop you will see all the awards each artist won and be very intimidated.  However each artist is so down to earth and humble.  I heard at least a half dozen conversations were artist shared colors, techniques, and recommendations for the tattoo.  I'v been working with Rember who is not from this world.  His tattoos and painting are so real and colorful its hard to believe its a tattoo. But I also learned he goes to school just as much as he tattoo's!!!  You can see his influence throughout the industry and at many shops around the metroplex.  Brandon there was busy working on a tattoo expo trying to make it the best for artists and customers.  Check out his work too!!!  I also really love Francisco's work and Jose does some amazing animals.  I dare you to try and find an artist that isnt awesome.

Went here on the recommendation of a friend and all the great reviews on Yelp. My sister flew in for a visit-first time without kids in 20 years. We decided to do something to remember it. Dark Age is right on the square. Our artist, Nick, was very professional and did great work. He wanted to make sure he got it right. The front desk staff was friendly and helpful. The place was clean and unique in its layout and decor. Would definitely go here again. I highly recommend. My sister and I are both in our 50's, by the way. Read Less

There are some very talented artists here! I came in about six months ago as a walk-in, but my design was too complicated for a walk-in so I got an appointment with Brenna instead. Wait times were good for my wife when she got her walk-in tattoo, but I would recommend an appointment as I walked right in. The staff is friendly, and everything is very clean. Prices seem very good for the quality, but might be higher comepared to other placea depending on who you use. I'm not a tattoo junkie so I am not super well versed in the tattoo world, but I definitely recommend Dark Age. Read Less

Highly recommend coming here for piercings of any type! Ciara did my nose, and I absolutely love it! She uses titanium jewelry, which is nice considering I am allergic to nickel, and don't react well with other metals. She is VERY sanitary and you can tell she really cares about your experience with your piercing. She told me to keep in contact with her just in case anything went wrong such as an infection, which I think is super awesome! Read Less

This is hands down one of the nicest tattoo shops I've ever been in. Going into the shop feels like you're in an art gallery, with gorgeous Carlos Torres art adorned on the walls and beautiful victorian furniture. I've been here three times now and each time has been amazing. The staff and artists are super friendly and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable, asking if you need a break during your tattoo or if you need something to drink or eat, etc. At this shop I've only been tattooed by Jose and Rember for a total of 20+ hours and they are some of the nicest dudes I've had the pleasure to meet in the tattoo world. I'm very pleased with the Poseidon piece from Rember and the lion from Jose. You really can't go wrong with any of the artists here. If you look at all the shop portfolios you can tell they only bring in top class tattooers. Don't be too picky with the design process, and have confidence in your artist and just let them do their thing. You'll be pleased with the outcome. Read Less

I am so disappointed with my appointment today. I was a walk in with my mother and we decided to get a simple heart design less than a quarter size. The tattoo went well besides the artist acting quite rude when I asked to move the stencil even though this would be on my body permanently. When we went to the front and were told our total was $160 for 2 HEART SHAPE TATTOOS THAT WERE NOT EVEN FILLED IN. We were later told the shop minimum was $80 per piece even though no one mentioned that to us at any point before our tattoos. Overall I don't see myself coming back to a place that completely ripped us off. Read Less

I’ve gotten two tattoos here and I just love it. It’s right off the main square and very clean and friendly. The first one was watercolor which can be iffy but the colors were fabulous. The second one was on my side and even though I have some pudge in that area and it isn’t fully flat the line work and overall result was beautiful. When they made a scheduling error and put me down for an artist that was off they found me another one with similar work quickly and let me look at his art. I’d definitely get another one here.

There are not enough stars for this place. Absolutely stunning work, great artists, clean and friendly. Sunny Lovan did a custom piece for me. It was my first tattoo but made me feel at ease. Did I mention the piece covers my entire forearm and hand! I had the pleasure of meeting several of the artists (since I had several visits) and they are all fabulous! The owners are not typical as they are not conceited in any way and act like just another artist in the place (though they keep a watchful eye on their artists). Talent is in abundance here along with variety. Worth the wait and worth every penny...after all you will become a permanent work of art! Read Less

Great atmosphere and clean They have super talented artists. I had a mandala done on my back by Eddie Molina. He was very good at taking my ideas, and combining them into a great piece. He even took the time to explain why some things wouldn't work as the tattoo aged, and made some awesome suggestions of his own. Size was another thing he helped with--I wanted something much smaller. I am so glad I went with the size he suggested, it is breathtakingly beautiful. Everyone who sees it is amazed by the clean lines and attention to details. I will definitely go back to Dark Age and work with Eddie again. Read Less

The artwork was definitely 5/5 but lack of professionalism earns a 3/5 unfortunately. I’m really happy with the tattoo and quality of work, but the tattoo artist (Brenna McLaughlin) arrived an hour late, it didn’t seem like the piece was designed yet, and we didn’t start until 3 hours after my scheduled time. There was no explanation or apology. Similarly, during the session, a five minute break turned into a 40 minute break. Again, no explanation or communication. Just wish there was more communication through the total of 9 hours I spent. Read Less

I emailed him nonstop for a week or so and he was super patient and responsive getting me booked. I told him everything I wanted and he still added some to my design to make it his own. It turned out better than I could have hoped. The facility is gorgeous and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of work done. Everyone there was super nice to me and the people I came with.

Well to start off, I've been following the professor on Instagram for quite a while now and I've loved his work ever sense I found out about him! For some reason I always assumed he tattooed in New york because of his  last name :p but when I found out he was in Texas I was thrilled! Getting tattooed by him was absolutely amazing and really showed me how passionate he his about tattooing and it's history. When I first started following him I thought that the whole antique look was just a online persona but let me tell you, he actually thinks he is from the 1800s! He really does dress like that everyday and uses all glass bottles for his little inks and he even  tattoos out of a old wooden box!  His set up was absolutely gorgeous and really did take me back in time, The attention to detail that he pays is mind blowing. He also told me that all his tattoo gear is actually based off old gear from the early 1900s and that getting tattooed by him was the closest experience to getting tattooed in the 1900s you can get today! I'm so happy with my tattoo and the professor! I will certainly be back! :) Read Less

I have never bothered to write a yelp review before.  However, my experience with Dark Age Tattoo studios and Rember was so awesome, that I felt it was important to write this review. So far, I have gotten 3 tattoos.  This was by far the best experience. However, before going into how amazing Dark Age and Rember is I will discuss the few minor, but understandable negatives.The first negative was that contact before the appointment was very minimal. I knew that I would have a two year wait, but it took a year before I even knew my exact appointment date. Given that Rember is booked so far in advance, this is understandable.  The Second negative (well perhaps not, but it did cause a little anxiety) is that I am not use to designs being designed the day of the tattoo. Again though, this is also understandable because Rember is a busy man.  Besides, anyone going to Rember already knows they are getting one of the best artists in the world.Watching Rember do a tattoo is a bit like what I imagine it would be like watching Michelangelo paint the Sixteenth Chapel. Rember is very meticulous about his work, but it wouldn't be so damn amazing if he wasn't. No tattoo from Rember is going to be cheap, but Rember first and foremost cares about his art and giving you an excellent product. This is just one factor that makes him a world class artist and puts him in a realm of his own. I spent almost three years getting this tattoo and a good chunk of change. Making big purchases can sometimes cause me to have anxiety and I did have anxiety more than a couple times before going to get this tattoo. However, I can say that the tattoo was well worth the wait and every dollar spent. Not to mention, I spent a long time imagining the tattoo and trying to perfect it. Even after two years of fine tuning and envisioning my tattoo, it still came out more breathtaking and beautiful then I could imagine even.Rember's talent and artwork is only surpassed by what an outstanding individual he is. The prior review that basically said Rember is coincided and acts all high and mighty is a load of shit. Rember is not always very talkative, though he is very friendly and all around awesome guy.  I saw Rember compliment the work of several different artists on multiple occasions. If you're not Rember's client, he is likely devoting all his time and energy to making his current client the best piece of art he can (which I noticed he seems to do best by getting in the zone and listening to music on his phone).  No amount of awards or stars can justify how amazing Dark Age is and what an all around  great person Rember is. If you are currently reading this review and are thinking about booking Rember when he reopens his books, I would strongly encourage you to do so. Sure, 2 years is a long wait. However, if you are going to have something on your body forever, a 2 years wait is a short price to pay for such world class talent. Also, if you are reading this and are getting ready to soon get you own appointment, I can't wait to see your artwork posted on Rember's instagram. Read Less

Me and my sisters got matching tattoos a year ago at the shop and everything was so perfect and the artist was so nice with us that we came back this week. This time it was only my sister who got a tattoo, but we took a flight from Puerto Rico just to be able to made an appointment with the same artist, Jacob. We really like his techique, very clean, fast and he has a very light hand. I have other tattoos and I can tell the one I got from him wasn't painful at all. He looks so organized and calm while working that it makes you feel secure and calm too. So I'm already planning my next trip to Texas to got another tattoo from him and my other sister as well.

I got a staph infection from the tattoo I got at this shop. I know there are good artists here but my artist didn't seem to care at all that I got staph, which is completely unprofessional. I went to the doctor three days after getting my tattoo and had a swab culture. I ended up having to take three different rounds of antibiotics and went to my trusted artist in Austin to fix it. So I had to pay for my tattoo twice. I'm pretty sure it was the artists fault (though I know you can get staph outside of the shop) because my girlfriend got a tattoo from a different artist on the same day that was fine, and we did the same things before I went to the doctor since we live together. I will never get a tattoo here again. Read Less

I am so disappointed. I went to get an anniversary tattoo with my husband. Our artist was Brad. He told us we could come in at 9. I wish he would have said to come in the next day because he was going to rush our tattoos to make a quick buck. He scratched our skin with the needles so it looks torn open. The black lines bled out so there are really thick, ugly lines. Our tattoos are 4 days old now and they look 4 years old. It's really painful still and feels raw. The crisp look is gone and it looks so messy. It looks like the kind of art your kids bring home from school. I've had many tattoos before. Some of them massive pieces, so I know how a tattoo that is done well looks and feels. I also know how to care for them so they heal properly. It's so disappointing to have such a bad memory of my anniversary. I'm going to look to see where I can get a cover up. Read Less

I was so hyped when I made my appointment because I'd heard such great reviews and as soon as I went in the shop I felt good about it. The receptionist was pleasant and very helpful about fining me an artist when I didn't know exactly what I wanted. She had me talk to Miguel, who seemed quiet but very nice. I'd heard a lot of good things about him too, so I asked him to draw me up something and made an appointment with him for a week and a half later. Later I texted him the pictures of designs I liked and he replied saying he would get it done. When I went in for my appointment, it was completely different. I guess it was the receptionist's day off, so there was no one at the desk, but Miguel came out to the front. He didn't remember me, which is fine, but he seemed to have forgotten our appointment too, and my request for a design. When I tried to remind him of the pictures I'd sent him, he told me he cracked his phone earlier in the week and had to get a new one. Sad, but I'd given my number to the shop when I made my appointment. Why, exactly, did I give them that except for situations like that? So I wouldn't have to wait in the waiting room for an hour while he printed off the exact picture I showed him online? While I waited I watched an obnoxiously loud movie on TV, listened to Miguel order a burger on the phone, waited for him to go pick it up, then waited for him to EAT IT. I had to ask another artist to go get him so I could get this over with. The only reason I didn't just ask for my deposit back and leave was because I wanted to get this tattoo before I went back to college. The appointment itself went fine, his art was good and it was what I wanted, at least, but Miguel said a total of 10 words, but I guess I wasn't there to talk to the guy. Afterward, he tried to get me to pay $300 for three hours, when the tat only took two. I guess he was counting his lunch hour. There's no way I was paying that, so I asked for my deposit back and  paid $200. He didn't fight me on that, at least. Great art, although he pretty much just copied something from the internet, but customer service from Miguel was pretty rough. I know a lot of people have good experiences with this place and even with Miguel, so maybe I just caught the shop and the guy on a bad day, but I'm pretty doubtful that I'll ever go back to Dark Age. I know tattoo shops are usually laid back places, but that was totally unprofessional and Miguel showed total disregard for my time, and then tried to charge me for it. Read Less

I was looking for my first professional tattoo that was not very dark.  I was looking for plenty shading and very small details.  I had Miguel work on my request and it looks awesome when he began the 1st session but I had to keep going all the way from South of Dallas to Denton over and over.  I spent over $1,000 on this piece that I ended up looking for someone else to finish it.  There was a lot of waiting around and the need for "another session" each time, which was annoying.  It seems like the more sessions you go to the more they make but I am not interested in completing a tattoo in a year.  Also the tattoo was very light and had some  I saw Fransisco and Rember tattoo some absolute masterpieces but they walk around you and by you like they are super stars and don't speak to you.  I don't think Frank said hello to me once in the 4 times that I went.  They are amazing at what they do tho.  They are the reason I even considered going all the way to Denton and then realized that Frank is booked for the next year and I didn't even ask about Rember.  Then got the next artist in line to do mine.  The price is per the artist and is about $150 an hour.** I HIGHLY recommend Edgar with "Inkonformity" in Irving Mall.  The price is cheaper and you get the quality and photographic shading!  He ended up taking the challenge of fixing my tattoo.  He worked with confidence and it looks perfect!!!  I didn't think it was fixable but he did it.  Check out their Yelp site for my pics.  I put the before and after of my tattoo and well, you be the judge.Thanks for reading Read Less

Wow.  There is something in the water in Denton, TX that just produces incredible tattoo artist. There isn't enough space to list all the talented names.  But if you're looking for a black and gray portrait/realism there isn't a better studio fit for you.  When I first did research on the shop you will see all the awards each artist won and be very intimidated.  However each artist is so down to earth and humble.  I heard at least a half dozen conversations were artist shared colors, techniques, and recommendations for the tattoo.  I'v been working with Rember who is not from this world.  His tattoos and painting are so real and colorful its hard to believe its a tattoo. But I also learned he goes to school just as much as he tattoo's!!!  You can see his influence throughout the industry and at many shops around the metroplex.  Brandon there was busy working on a tattoo expo trying to make it the best for artists and customers.  Check out his work too!!!  I also really love Francisco's work and Jose does some amazing animals.  I dare you to try and find an artist that isnt awesome.

I've had a few little tattoos before, but this was my first time actually having something designed for me. I booked with Javier and he did an incredible job! I emailed him nonstop for a week or so and he was super patient and responsive getting me booked. I told him everything I wanted and he still added some to my design to make it his own. It turned out better than I could have hoped. The facility is gorgeous and the prices are very reasonable for the quality of work done. Everyone there was super nice to me and the people I came with. From now on I definitely won't be going anywhere else for tattoos. I even set up another appointment when I was there! Read Less

Well to start off, I've been following the professor on Instagram for quite a while now and I've loved his work ever sense I found out about him! For some reason I always assumed he tattooed in New york because of his  last name :p but when I found out he was in Texas I was thrilled! Getting tattooed by him was absolutely amazing and really showed me how passionate he his about tattooing and it's history. When I first started following him I thought that the whole antique look was just a online persona but let me tell you, he actually thinks he is from the 1800s! He really does dress like that everyday and uses all glass bottles for his little inks and he even  tattoos out of a old wooden box!  His set up was absolutely gorgeous and really did take me back in time, The attention to detail that he pays is mind blowing. He also told me that all his tattoo gear is actually based off old gear from the early 1900s and that getting tattooed by him was the closest experience to getting tattooed in the 1900s you can get today! I'm so happy with my tattoo and the professor! I will certainly be back! :) Read Less

I have never bothered to write a yelp review before.  However, my experience with Dark Age Tattoo studios and Rember was so awesome, that I felt it was important to write this review. So far, I have gotten 3 tattoos.  This was by far the best experience. However, before going into how amazing Dark Age and Rember is I will discuss the few minor, but understandable negatives.The first negative was that contact before the appointment was very minimal. I knew that I would have a two year wait, but it took a year before I even knew my exact appointment date. Given that Rember is booked so far in advance, this is understandable.  The Second negative (well perhaps not, but it did cause a little anxiety) is that I am not use to designs being designed the day of the tattoo. Again though, this is also understandable because Rember is a busy man.  Besides, anyone going to Rember already knows they are getting one of the best artists in the world.Watching Rember do a tattoo is a bit like what I imagine it would be like watching Michelangelo paint the Sixteenth Chapel. Rember is very meticulous about his work, but it wouldn't be so damn amazing if he wasn't. No tattoo from Rember is going to be cheap, but Rember first and foremost cares about his art and giving you an excellent product. This is just one factor that makes him a world class artist and puts him in a realm of his own. I spent almost three years getting this tattoo and a good chunk of change. Making big purchases can sometimes cause me to have anxiety and I did have anxiety more than a couple times before going to get this tattoo. However, I can say that the tattoo was well worth the wait and every dollar spent. Not to mention, I spent a long time imagining the tattoo and trying to perfect it. Even after two years of fine tuning and envisioning my tattoo, it still came out more breathtaking and beautiful then I could imagine even.Rember's talent and artwork is only surpassed by what an outstanding individual he is. The prior review that basically said Rember is coincided and acts all high and mighty is a load of shit. Rember is not always very talkative, though he is very friendly and all around awesome guy.  I saw Rember compliment the work of several different artists on multiple occasions. If you're not Rember's client, he is likely devoting all his time and energy to making his current client the best piece of art he can (which I noticed he seems to do best by getting in the zone and listening to music on his phone).  No amount of awards or stars can justify how amazing Dark Age is and what an all around  great person Rember is. If you are currently reading this review and are thinking about booking Rember when he reopens his books, I would strongly encourage you to do so. Sure, 2 years is a long wait. However, if you are going to have something on your body forever, a 2 years wait is a short price to pay for such world class talent. Also, if you are reading this and are getting ready to soon get you own appointment, I can't wait to see your artwork posted on Rember's instagram. Read Less

Me and my sisters got matching tattoos a year ago at the shop and everything was so perfect and the artist was so nice with us that we came back this week. This time it was only my sister who got a tattoo, but we took a flight from Puerto Rico just to be able to made an appointment with the same artist, Jacob. We really like his techique, very clean, fast and he has a very light hand. I have other tattoos and I can tell the one I got from him wasn't painful at all. He looks so organized and calm while working that it makes you feel secure and calm too. So I'm already planning my next trip to Texas to got another tattoo from him and my other sister as well.

I got a staph infection from the tattoo I got at this shop. I know there are good artists here but my artist didn't seem to care at all that I got staph, which is completely unprofessional. I went to the doctor three days after getting my tattoo and had a swab culture. I ended up having to take three different rounds of antibiotics and went to my trusted artist in Austin to fix it. So I had to pay for my tattoo twice. I'm pretty sure it was the artists fault (though I know you can get staph outside of the shop) because my girlfriend got a tattoo from a different artist on the same day that was fine, and we did the same things before I went to the doctor since we live together. I will never get a tattoo here again. Read Less

I am so disappointed. I went to get an anniversary tattoo with my husband. Our artist was Brad. He told us we could come in at 9. I wish he would have said to come in the next day because he was going to rush our tattoos to make a quick buck. He scratched our skin with the needles so it looks torn open. The black lines bled out so there are really thick, ugly lines. Our tattoos are 4 days old now and they look 4 years old. It's really painful still and feels raw. The crisp look is gone and it looks so messy. It looks like the kind of art your kids bring home from school. I've had many tattoos before. Some of them massive pieces, so I know how a tattoo that is done well looks and feels. I also know how to care for them so they heal properly. It's so disappointing to have such a bad memory of my anniversary. I'm going to look to see where I can get a cover up. Read Less

I was so hyped when I made my appointment because I'd heard such great reviews and as soon as I went in the shop I felt good about it. The receptionist was pleasant and very helpful about fining me an artist when I didn't know exactly what I wanted. She had me talk to Miguel, who seemed quiet but very nice. I'd heard a lot of good things about him too, so I asked him to draw me up something and made an appointment with him for a week and a half later. Later I texted him the pictures of designs I liked and he replied saying he would get it done. When I went in for my appointment, it was completely different. I guess it was the receptionist's day off, so there was no one at the desk, but Miguel came out to the front. He didn't remember me, which is fine, but he seemed to have forgotten our appointment too, and my request for a design. When I tried to remind him of the pictures I'd sent him, he told me he cracked his phone earlier in the week and had to get a new one. Sad, but I'd given my number to the shop when I made my appointment. Why, exactly, did I give them that except for situations like that? So I wouldn't have to wait in the waiting room for an hour while he printed off the exact picture I showed him online? While I waited I watched an obnoxiously loud movie on TV, listened to Miguel order a burger on the phone, waited for him to go pick it up, then waited for him to EAT IT. I had to ask another artist to go get him so I could get this over with. The only reason I didn't just ask for my deposit back and leave was because I wanted to get this tattoo before I went back to college. The appointment itself went fine, his art was good and it was what I wanted, at least, but Miguel said a total of 10 words, but I guess I wasn't there to talk to the guy. Afterward, he tried to get me to pay $300 for three hours, when the tat only took two. I guess he was counting his lunch hour. There's no way I was paying that, so I asked for my deposit back and  paid $200. He didn't fight me on that, at least. Great art, although he pretty much just copied something from the internet, but customer service from Miguel was pretty rough. I know a lot of people have good experiences with this place and even with Miguel, so maybe I just caught the shop and the guy on a bad day, but I'm pretty doubtful that I'll ever go back to Dark Age. I know tattoo shops are usually laid back places, but that was totally unprofessional and Miguel showed total disregard for my time, and then tried to charge me for it. Read Less

I was looking for my first professional tattoo that was not very dark.  I was looking for plenty shading and very small details.  I had Miguel work on my request and it looks awesome when he began the 1st session but I had to keep going all the way from South of Dallas to Denton over and over.  I spent over $1,000 on this piece that I ended up looking for someone else to finish it.  There was a lot of waiting around and the need for "another session" each time, which was annoying.  It seems like the more sessions you go to the more they make but I am not interested in completing a tattoo in a year.  Also the tattoo was very light and had some  I saw Fransisco and Rember tattoo some absolute masterpieces but they walk around you and by you like they are super stars and don't speak to you.  I don't think Frank said hello to me once in the 4 times that I went.  They are amazing at what they do tho.  They are the reason I even considered going all the way to Denton and then realized that Frank is booked for the next year and I didn't even ask about Rember.  Then got the next artist in line to do mine.  The price is per the artist and is about $150 an hour.** I HIGHLY recommend Edgar with "Inkonformity" in Irving Mall.  The price is cheaper and you get the quality and photographic shading!  He ended up taking the challenge of fixing my tattoo.  He worked with confidence and it looks perfect!!!  I didn't think it was fixable but he did it.  Check out their Yelp site for my pics.  I put the before and after of my tattoo and well, you be the judge.Thanks for reading Read Less
