Wanted to acknowledge how amazing Sergio was and his ride or die in the front. I had reached out to the shop via email and I was responded to fairly quickly. I was told what to expect. When I arrived I was welcomed and offered water... and even though there were at least 4 people when I arrived, I never felt forgotten or that I was waiting forever. The cute receptionist continued to assure me that It wouldnt be long. I didnt mind it, I wouldnt want someone to be rushing the artist just cause i felt it was my turn. Honestly my experience with Sergio couldnt have gone any better. He took his time way before he even started. He made sure the size of my symbol actually looked descent where I wanted it to be placed. He didnt just slap down a stencil and call it a day. He came back several times to make sure the yellow I wanted went with my skin tone. . I used to be a person who didnt like something that wasnt one of a kind but my son had recently become obsessed with Batman and well its easy to say mom did too. Even though it may have been simple to others it meant a lot to me.... and Sergio made me feel like it was a one of kind (even though others have it). I wanted to make sure this shop got the credit it was owed. Its a very clean, professional atmosphere. To top it all off I loved the music, the head banging rock I experienced at others was not so inviting to want to sit through lol (really just a petty thing but still)Cant say it enough, THANK YOU COLLINS TATTOO SHOP FOR MY EXPERIENCE, and THANK YOU SERGIO, truly my son loved it. He got a matching henna tattoo and he thought mom was extra cool that day

Good place to get some work done

I just stopped in to browse through the artists books for inspiration; there were a lot on the table and I guess I checked every one; didnt find exactly what I wanted, but I did see some interesting ideas.

Best experience Ive had. Saved my whole night. They made sure I was informed on everything I needed to know and had everything I needed on top of that. Definitely will be back!

Great vibes and clean shop. Artists are chill and do awesome work. Sergio has tattooed all the ink art on my sleeve and continues to...he is an amazing artist with a great attitude, sense of humor and experience...makes you feel comfortable and at ease in his chair.

This is my third time coming for a piercing and each time I leave beyond satisfied! Everything is cleaned and organized. Just great energy!

I just had a cover up tattoo done by Sergio and I’m glad I found this place. All their 5 star reviews are true. They are professional, clean and good vibes at the shop. Sergio was very helpful on finding best option for my cover up and I’m happy with my tattoo. His attention to detail on his artwork is awesome, the line work, shading and coloring everything looks really nice. Nancy at the front desk with great customer service. Cool music at the shop had to keep asking for names of songs to add to my playlist . I will definitely be returning here for all my future tattoos.

Y’all put your faith in this shop they will deliver amazing work 10/10!!!!!! I’m so happy with my tattoo

Best experience I’ve had with my piercings! Highly recommend coming with Sergio for piercings he’s the best of the best!! (;

We came from out of town and wanted last minute tattoos for 6 of us! He was very accommodating and nice! Super clean! The most clean shop I’ve ever seen! Music was awesome! And he was very quick!

Love Sergio. He did my first tattoo! Super fast and love the design... will be back for more.

Second time coming here LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!! My homegirls and I are always making sure we’re a big group to show support! ALL my tatts will be done here!

My first time getting a tattoo! Made it super awesome for me & my mom (we got matching ones as well). Great prices, clean place, thorough & easy talkers. Will definitely come back here when i’m wanting another.

By far my favorite tattoo shop I’ve gone to. The artists here are super friendly and amazing at their professions. The tattoos are great, always heal beautifully, and aren’t overpriced like other shops. 10/10 ️

I’ve been here twice and tattooed by Sergio! He’s great!! Very professional and great service.

Best place to go, super chill and prices are good

The guy that did my industrial piercing was super nice and did a great job with my piercing! I couldn’t be any happier

Great experience. Will be back soon!

Loved loved loved ️ this place coming back for more ...in the future

I absolutely love my tattoo add a wonderful experience

I LOVE my new tattoo! Sergio is awesome! Great work, on top of a clean and professional environment. Cant recommend enough.

This Is My Second Tattoo From Sergio, And He’s Dope️️️ Gotta Thank Covid For Making Him Available, This Guy Be On The Move. Glad I Got In, He Got My Sleeve Right, Also Hook’d Up My GF Up With Her First Tattoo Also. Nancy Hung In There With Us Too Till 2AM!He’s Quick, Very Clean And Every Line Is Perfect! Definitely One Of The Best Hands In Arlington️ He Makes Getting Ink’d Up Fun, And Kept My Girl Relax’d During Her First Big Piece.

The owner is a great artist!! Not heavy handed at all. I would be going back for more.

The artists are good.

I pass by this tattoo shop every day and never realized how amazing it was until today! Mike did my tattoo and I absolutely love it! I literally looked down at about 5 or 6 Facebook posts and looked up and I was done! I highly recommend going to see Mike and I will definitely be coming back to get more tattoos from him! Oh and the staff was really friendly too! They helped me decide between two tattoos and were very kind and not pushy at all.

I got a pretty simple tattoo done today from their Friday 13th special-- Mike and his wife Magaly were both very nice and very professional and kindly let me reserve an appointment even after the event. Mike was easy to talk to and did an amazing job! I already have a tattoo planned for a few months from now but I may find myself coming in sooner. Great atmosphere. 10/10 would definitely recommend!

These guys do the best tattoos

Best tattoo & piercing shop! Nose piercing was done in seconds and very nice! Thanks sergio!

While searching for a tattoo shop on Google.. One shop was outrageous so back to Google and across the street I found another shop... Collins Street Tattoo... Mike did an Awesome Piece on me... Very Good Prices.... 5 Stars Hands Down for Mike... I will be back without a Doubt...

I recently had a tattoo done by Mike and love it. He took his time to make sure my first tattoo was perfect. THANKS MIKE!!!! My wife had one done by Sergio and he does great work as well. He was very professional and his customer service was the best. I would recommend this shop and these two artists to anyone local or if you are just in town visiting.

Incredible service! Great prices too! Shane was beyond amazing. He made us feel so at home, welcomed us in, and made us feel like family. The tattoo took a while but he didn’t seem to mind, he talked to us, checking in on the client and making sure he was at best comfort. He was precise and clean with the tattoo he was creating, giving it as much time as needed and the best possible quality. He not only was a great artist, but one of the most genuine, understanding, and authentic people you will ever meet. So relatable and wise. You’d be blessed to get to sit and get to know this dude while getting a rad grade A tattoo, I know we were. We weren’t even supposed to have come across here but I believe God had a divine appointment and this was no coincidence. GO HERE. You won’t be sorry.

Amazing shop! One of the BEST in Arlington!All of the artists here are friendly & it’s a super cool atmosphere. Clean shop and sanitary work spaces, are always the first thing I notice!Shane has done 90% of my work and I would highly recommend you check him out if you are looking for some new ink!!

Sergio and chili are legit. And do amazing work. I have tattoos done by both.Edit: I now have 3 done by sergio. Highly recommend!

Shane has done close to 50 tattoos on me, each of them came out great and I love. He takes the time to understand what you want. From original designs to things I’ve brought in, he nails it every time. I high recommend hitting Shane up for all your tattoo needs!!

Mike is a great artist. Check his work out.

I LOVE this place. All the guys are respectful, treat their customers like they belong. Ive gotten 3 tattoos done by Sergio and I love the outcome. Sergio is a multitasker, hell talk to you while tattooing to make you feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend this place, especially if its your first time. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK GUYS!!!!

Came in for Friday the 13th tattoos with my friend and they came out great

Sergio does amazing work! Found the artist that will do my sleeve work.

Came down to visit my mom from Indiana and hands down went to the best tattoo shop I’ve ever been to and I have 3 tattoos! These guys made our visit fun and memorable and their work is amazing. Thank you Sergio for doing my tattoo and thanks Shane for the laughs!! Your new Indiana friend... Zoi.

I have 3 of 5 tattoos from here. I love this place and the people in it! Such a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere and everyone is very professional. Sergio did all of my tattoos and with his style, I definitely want more and for him to help with the design. CST is definitely a shop that I feel comfortable with because they are very clean and sanitary. The artists all take time to know what the client wants and they truly deliver great results. Everyone always says Im just gonna get one tattoo. Yeah.... Im 5 in bc of this place and Im not done yet.

Ive wanted a 3rd tattoo for a while now and after doing some research on shops/artists around the Arlington area while my husband and I were on vacation we found Sergio and his shop. We walked in and were greeted by Sergio. After showing him what I wanted, he said no problem and off we went. During the time he was tattooing my arm we carried on multiple conversions. I just wanted to take the time to say Thank You to him for the excellent job he did.

Absolutely Great Experience! Chris is awesome I came in as a walk-in showed him what I wanted and he was able to re- create it. It turned out absolutely beautiful I couldn’t be happier. Pricing is very reasonable. The Tattoo shop is very clean and nice I was very impressed. Will definitely be going back there if I decide to get another tattoo. Thanks Chris !

I got my very first tattoo here and the guys were great! Shane was very sweet and made sure what I wanted was correct. I would 10/10 recommend!

The shop is meticulously clean and sterile. Chris Cabrera is extremely talented and professional. He can do anything, from custom to recreating a request. Prices are fair and well worth the quality of work.

Sergio did an amazing piece in honor of my late cousin. He’s done a couple of my tattoos, completely recommend going to Collins Street Tattoo. I will continue to go to him for more work. Everyone there makes you feel very welcomed. Great place!!!!!!

Absolutely great place! Great prices & great work. Amazing artists who actually care about what they tattoo not just the money. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who wants a tattoo in the area. They take walk in appointments. If I am ever in the area again. I will go back to this place.

Very professional work wonderful and best prices with the good attitude a must go see for your next tattoo.

I have multiple tattoos but my favorite is done by Sergio. Recommend him he does an amazing job

Really nice people and good work

Went there lastnight and had a great experience! Sergio was mine and my daughters artist and the other two girls had Shane! These guys made our experience fun and awesome. The work is absolutely amazing. Sergio did my cover up of a “regretted” tattoo and it is beautiful. He is going to do a lot more work on me for the next few months and I’m excited for the outcome! It’s a must!

Sergio is the best!!! I remember there was a time in which Oklahoma (Im an Oklahoma native) didnt allow tattoos, so wed go to Texas!! I love Sergios work. I havent been since 2016 and it was my first tattoo, but he was cool about it and it eased my mind although my boyfriend was a wimp lol who gets their first tattoo in a sensitive area, but clean, professional, and patient artist!! Will be back when I know what I want next!

The guys in here and so cool and professional. True artists!

Mike did an awesome job. Great artist did a great tattoo and we listen to some good music. Cant wait to go back and get some more work done

Sergio did mine and my homies last night, I got Pablo Escobart, and she got Kurt Cobain! They came out awesome! And clean! 12/10 would go back just for Sergio!!!!Also great price!

Sergio!!! Hands down the guy & beyond the best artist! I would refer this guy to my friends definitely..he’s so easy to talk too and you can tell he really loves his job. Real recognize real!

I tell everybody about this place! I also tell then if they go ask for Shane! I love his work!

Sergio is hands down the best there is. He truly loves what he does and it shows. Hes a true artist. I give him a general idea of what I want and he takes it to another level. I have had most of my sleeve done by him and he will be the one to finish it and add more. I promise you will not be disappointed and will get a million compliments on your art as well. Shop is nice, very clean and well kept. All artists are friendly and excited to help.

I commented on this page only to have my comment removed and block on Facebook at least they could have been professional and had given me a reply stating they corrected the issue. But nope, Im a artist out in Ennis tx and from what I see there are a few things I seen sbout this shop especially being clean but like I said I gave a chance for a reply only to be ignored and deleted but This is very unsanitary, as a shop exhibiting this is very sad. Blood borne pathogens cross contamination with the clients arm rubbing all over the Artist arm, beard and shirt. That is disgusting and unsanitary. Did this artist not learn the proper way to protect themselves working in a shop I would imagine they would, To be honest they should be embarrassed to not have caught these actions right away instead of praising the video posted on their page. Just another shop in the industry that cares more about money than protecting themselves and customers. Its not hard to remember and obide by common sense tattoo safety. They may do alright work but at what cost to use that common sense and protect each other from contamination and or the possibility of infection.

Chris was awesome. My daughter got her 1st tattoo and he was patient, nice.. and did great work. We will be back for more! Thank you Chris!

Awesome! Amazing work! Me and my friend got our first Pro tattoos! Couldnt choose a better place!

Amazing shop and amazing people. Needles and Stephanie are hilarious and super friendly. Sergio is by far the greatest. He I should an incredibly talented artist and over the last few years, Ive been exclusively using him for my tattoos. I really dont trust anyone else. I recommend Sergio to everyone I know!

I love Sergio! First, he is an amazing artist. Second, he takes all needed sanitary precautions. Third, he is welcoming to anyone, even an old lady like me. He makes you feel comfortable. Fourth, he LISTENS to you about what you want. Fifth, he takes all the time he needs to do a great job; he will not rush. Sixth, he is a master at cover ups. Seventh, he does cosmetic tattoos!!!!!I had some bad work done on my wrist at another place in Arlington that was highly rated. In my attempts to have it fixed, i researched almost every shop in DFW, and visited several. I was either told that nothing could be done, or treated rudely; most people didnt want to bother with me. I am super happy to find Sergio. He did a GREAT job with my cover up, and has done several more tats for me since.He also did my eyebrows! I had had them done REPEATEDLY by cosmetic tattoo places that left me with crooked and weird color eyebrows. He fixed them to look natural and great; he took a lot of time getting the right color, shape, and position.....one million times better than the permanent make up cosmetic tattoo people.I am stopped on a DAILY basis asking where i got my tats. Remarks like I have never seen anything like that! and is that real? are common. (they are watercolor style). I tell them to go see Sergio at Collins Street Tattoo.I love him and would never go anywhere else.

My wife and I traveled to Arlington this past weekend and wanted to find a place to get her tattoo idea brought to life. We searched Google reviews of places near us and found a couple that we went into (not naming names, not here to bash) and had a horrible experience. The first place one of the artists tried to recreate a drawing from the picture she had on her phone and it turned out horrible, the second we were absolutely treated like we were a waste of their time. I guess our money wasnt good enough for them. But when we found Chris Cabrera at Collins Street Tattoo, we knew we in the right spot. Chris treated us like we were old friends, and was very polite to us, made us feel comfortable, and was super accommodating to what my wife was looking to get done. He used the exact image that she provided and went above and beyond to bring it to life! And when it came time to talk pricing, he wasnt there to try and price gouge us or take advantage of us. He was very reasonably priced for and major metropolitan tattoo artist!! Above everything, like I said before he made us feel like old friends and treated us with the most professional, top notch customer service that anyone could ask for. Although we are 6 hours from the DFW area, we will most definitely be going back to Arlington in the future just to get more ink from Chris! Anyone in the DFW area that is looking for ink, dont think twice, dont second guess yourself, just give Chris a call, you wont be disappointed! Thank you for everything Chris! We will be seeing you again soon brother!!

Excellent artists, all very talented and kind.

This shop is very clean and professional. Chris came in on his day off just to tattoo me. It was a great experience and my tattoo is amazing. I couldnt have asked for a better experience. Would definitely recommend!

The best tattoo shop Ive ever been to!! Sawyer did an amazing job on my tattoo at an extremely reasonable price. He really had a passion for what he does and it shows. It wasnt just about the money but about the quality of work. I have been to many tattoo shops and had work done but I felt the most comfortable letting him tattoo me. I am in love with the work he did!! The shop itself is very clean and professional. I felt welcomed as soon as I walked in. I will definitely be coming back to this shop to get more!

I got a tattoo here and they were amazing. They were so nice and they did an excellent job with the tattoo.

This tattoo shop is the best! Everyone there is awesome. Sawyer did my husband and my tattoo and it defenetly came out great. I would recommend this place to anyone. We actually took one of our friends like 2 days after we got ours done. And the prices are very reasonable.

I got my first tattoo at Collins Street Tattoo to commemorate my 50th birthday. I was referred by a friend to Sergio, who was excellent! He was very professional and was also very kind. He gave me the exact design I wanted. The tattoo turned out better than I imagined. The colors are gorgeous. I have had so many compliments on it. It is a true work of art on my body. Several people have asked me for his contact information for their future tattoos. The shop was very clean, which was really important to me. Also, Sergio followed up with me the day after and several days later to check on me. He answered all of my questions and told me exactly what to expect. That really meant a lot. I would highly recommend this business as well as the artist.

I want to thank Chris on doing my Tattoo. He was very professional and I LOVE the outcome of my Tattoo. I will most definitely be returning back for more tattoos.

Sawyer did an awesome job with my leg tattoo. He took the time to make this piece look great and didnt rush through it. It came out great and I have gotten tons of compliments on it. Ill definitely go with Collins St. Tattoo again for future artwork.

This place is never open when me and my friends come. Gave it a shot today and wasnt opened. well take our business else where then..

Went in today to get a ring for my nose. Sergio helped me. I then decided I wanted to add to my tattoo a half sleeve. ..I invited my coworker who also decided to get a tattoo after looking at his work on me...he did an amazing job. Made me feel comfortable and you can tell he loves his job....very passionate about his work...love love love my tat. will definitely be back. I recommend him...Hes the man...lol see you soon...

Pretty Boy Chris did 2 of my tattoos! Really happy with how they came out! Experience was great overall and the atmosphere is really chill. Definitely my go-to place for tattoos now.

Great place! My tattoo came out wonderful! I will definitely be back.

Sergio was great, very cool and did a great job. Ill post a pic when its healed, but he did a custom job on the spot and took care of a large group of us. Shop was clean and super friendly

Just happened to walk in this shop and couldnt be more happy with the results. Chris was professional, courteous, and made my tattoo look better than I could have ever imagined. I will definitely be visiting again and bringing more people with me!

Great shop. Great guys. Great service. I personally see Needles. Hes been doing my tattoos for years. Awesome guy and fabulous artist. Go see him. You wont be disappointed.

This is a great place to go to for tattoos! Im no tattoo novice; Ive been to many shops and have gotten work done by many artists. The people are super friendly and welcoming. Cody took care of me. I walked in about a month ago close to closing time and Cody was willing to stay late without hesitation. He drew up my tattoo super quick and although I was nervous about the pain, he assured me that it wouldnt take long. I love my tattoo! Its almost fully healed and it looks just as great as it did when I got it. The colors are bold and solid. Ive gotten so many comments on it! Ill be getting my work done by him from now on.

Quick. and clean. Saw Mike and he was awesome.

Good parlor i got my ink from here plus cool artists to convo with while getting ink up

This is my favorite shop to go to. I always get solid work from Sergio. Hes super flexible and easy to work with and the other artists seem great as well. The atmosphere is super laid back and the prices are the best Ive found for quality work in the DFW area. I highly recommend you check this shop out.

Cant wait to get another tattoo from Sergio. Hes a great artist and love his work. Took my brothers in laws to get work by him at the Ink Life Tour and they came came out awesome!

I have been wanting to get a tattoo of mine redone for many years now. So I stopped in the other day and talked to Sergio about what I wanted done. After agreeing on price,(very reasonable btw), he proceeded to work. It turned out great! I highly recommend this place for all of your tattooing needs. Ill be coming back for more work to be done.

Awesome place !! Friendly atmosphere, great people and awesome prices! Definitely would recommend to anyone searching for a good tattoo parlor. Pretty Boy Chris did an awesome job on my ink. Very pleased! :)

Sawyer is the absolute BEST!!! I wanted a tattoo of a guys name but Sawyer wouldnt let me. He is not about the money. Artistry is his passion. I am from Boston, but I will definitely be flying to Dallas for my tattoos!!!

I got some ink done by Sergio here and I will always go back to him for my work. He made a custom piece that I have given him a couple pics from & worked with me and got me in quick. I would recommend him to everyone!

Love this shop, I went and got by tattoo by Eddie I believe thats what his name was. You know how you go into tattoo shops and they just stare at you, and you get the vibe they really didnt want to be bothered. I didnt get this here it wasnt an awkward first kiss or anything. I will def be going back.

I needed some help on finishing a sleeve and Needles Caine was very informative on everything from the cost, time, to the process. Extremely professional. When I arrived to the shop I was even more impressed when I saw how clean and organized the shop was. I was a little nervous, but his attitude and knowledge of the tattoo process immediately calmed me down. After starting my sleeve I couldnt be happier. I cant wait to finish. I constantly get compliments on my colors and will be back as soon as I have the money.

My husband and I got tattoos together by their newer tattoo artist Michael and they are extremely basic, literally only Roman numerals and a basic crown, lets just say we are less than pleased. There are many lines that are not straight or they are not solid lines. He never seemed confident in what he was doing and he had a very heavy hand. He isnt personable at all and it literally took him 4 hours to do our 2 tattoos that again, were very basic. Sergio drew out a more complex and much larger piece AND tattooed it on a girl, and started another tattoo (including drawing) before we were done. If you can, Id wait until Sergio is available or go to another shop.

Ayy me and my wife have come here for our last 6 tattoos and we are obviously hooked! My boy Shane in here doin the damn thing with his tats! Ask for him!

Sergio does amazing work! Well worth the price. I found my artist to do my sleeve.

Great place! Very friendly staff

Mike did my first tattoo. Very professional shop. Professional people. Did an amazing shop

Collins St. Tattoo is a fantastic, comfortable, and clean shop! Paul V. is the man to see, I was referred to him through a friend impressed with his work. After my first tattoo from Paul I wass so pleased and impressed with not just his artistic skill but his attitude towards wanting to make sure I got the best from him. I now have friends coming to him and now planning my third tattoo with him. The finishing touches he put on my sly fox tattoo really made it pop! Whether you are looking for traditional or have something exciting to get inked, Paul is a friendly, fun, and skilled artist to work with. I will absolutely keep returning to this shop to get this quality work!

Sergio did an awesome job......hardly felt a thing, very happy with my tattoo....will be going back for more and bringing friends:) That was my original post.......since then I have been back several times....and I have brought friends! Sergio does a great job of spending the extra time to make sure you are getting exactly what you want and inks every detail! My only regret is I didnt have all my art work done by him! The next time I stop back in the shop it will be for touch ups to other tattoos not done by Sergio so he can work his magic! #omgthatbutterflythoughonpointsomanypeoplecomment

I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this establishment and Chris. The shop is clean, the atmosphere relaxing and the artists friendly and confident in their work.I was fortunate to have Chris as my artist and to design my first tattoo. I couldnt have asked for a better experience. He eased my nervousness, suggested placement of design and took the time to explain everything to me. Because of this experience, I was back within a week for a second one!I receive compliments on my tattoos daily from strangers. I am so proud to represent Collin Street Tattoo and refer anyone I can there.

Clean, calm, and professional environment. Sergio did an amazing job, and he was very patient with me during the process! Reasonably priced as well. Highly recommend!

I just got a tat done by Sawyer!! He free handed a word I wanted so that I didnt have to have a generic font off the computer! He listened to what I wanted and did it super quick! The shop is clean and the guys are so friendly! If Im in the Arlington area which I will be often( bff lives here) and I need ink this is the spot Ill be going to! Thanks again guys!

Best experience getting a tattoo. The artist here are very passionate about there work and the shop is very clean. I love my cover up and will go there again in the future.
