Stephanie and Mari hooked me up and did a phenomenal job. I got 10 piercings and a small shoulder tat that day and I couldn’t have been happier with my experience. The customer service was beyond awesome, they checked up on me and had great bedside manner. Just overall a awesome people and my tattoo turned out exactly how I wanted it to, size font and everything. And don’t even get me started on the piercings. I got my nipples done and it looks mad cute, aside from that all the other piercings were for my ear. 10 piercings in a row takes a toll on a person but Stephanie did the BEST job was very patient and reassuring. And they ALL TURNED OUT GREAT. I will definitely be back for anything I need done in the future!
*****BEWEAR*******I went to get my tragus pierced with my friend. I asked if the area was to small and if it would reject and she said no it wouldnt. She sat there in convinced me that it would be perfect n not reject, Even when I didnt want to she kept on insisting that it would look perfect n it wouldnt reject. For one she used way too big of a needle. The Gauge was way too big and definitely rejected. She then did my friends and it immediately infected. My friend contacted the shop, they told her to just take it out. Not sure if it was unsanitary or what but her ear was 5 times bigger the next day mine was not it just rejected. She also did my nose piercings the Gauge for that was way too big. It should have been a lot smaller. BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU ARE LETTING SOMEONE PIERCE YOU. SHE DEFINITELY HAS NO IDEA WHAT SHES DOING.
Great experience getting our family’s tattoos here today. DoeBoy was great! Very clean, professional, and talented! My son got a nose piercing also and the lady who helped him was wonderful to our whole family! Definitely recommend this place!
Stephanie pierced me and it was the best piercing experience I’ve ever had. She was so sweet and professional and made sure I was comfortable through the whole process. She even answered some questions about other piercings I have. I will definitely come back for my next piercing. 10/10
Doe Boy Did An Amazing Job With My Tattoos! He Took His Time With Them, The Vibe Was Very Calming And Chill. He Took Care Of Me And I Would Most Definitely Be Going Back!...A Big Thank You To Doe Boy!!
Stephanie did my nose piercing and my boyfriend’s ear piercings and we loved it!!! She was so nice (: ️and good sanitation.Also I love how the place looks it’s hella cool!!I want to come back for sure!
Stephanie did my nose piercing and she talked me through the whole process since it was my first time and i was very nervous. She also was very informative with how to take care of the piercing. The shop itself was a really nice set up and the people were really chill. Just a over all great vibe, I would be definitely coming back if i ever want another piercing or even tattoo.
A big thank you too Joseph ! Not only does he take his time and put in effort, his work and detail is just amazing, you will not be disappointed! I highly recommend you get your next tattoo from him !!! Very happy with my tattoo
I got my septum pierced and for a great price. My nose is crooked and so she had to pierce it twice but it was so much easier and faster than I imagined. She was so nice and made me feel cared for. I loved it!!
Warlock did amazing on my coverup tattoo! He explained everything and made me feel comfortable. He was really patient and really cool to talk too. Definitely going back!
I went here to get my septum and Medusa pierced, Steff was literally AMAZING! She kept it real, let me know that since my nose was a little crooked that it could make the piercing crooked, but she didn’t give up she still did it, and it came out perfect. I love my piercings! The shop was professional, and very clean! 10/10 would recommend to anyone!
I’ve had most of my tattoos done here at the shop, but by far my most favorite artist is Joseph. It’s always a blast being with him and never a dull moment he’s incredibly skilled and easy going I always look forward to my appointments with him and I get constant compliments on his art. I highly recommend the shop but recommend him even more. When I say he’s my permanent artist I mean it as I would not let anybody else touch me with a needle. If you’re not booking with him you’re truly missing out
Piercing went well, but aftercare info was not good.The place was clean and seemed like proper techniques were being followed. Stef did my nose piercing. She explained the process to me both before and during, which was helpful. The piercing process itself seemed professional, but her info on aftercare was lacking in my opinion.She explained the aftercare info just before she did the piercing. I was very nervous so honestly I couldnt listen closely. After she finished I asked her to explain it again and she seemed to be rushing me out the door and said just read the paper I gave you.I called to speak with her like an hour later to clarify instructions and again she seemed to be rushing me off the phone.On top of that, some of the aftercare methods she told me to use are directly contradicted by the Association of Piercing Professionals website.
Didn’t hurt as bad as I thought it would! I was super nervous but Steff kept conversation going and eventually I felt super calm. Super clean, sterilized everything! Steff made sure my piercings were in the right spots and took her time measuring. I’ll be back for sure!!
I love the work that Doeboy did on me last night! It was my first time being in an actual tattoo shop (my first tattoo wasn’t in one) and I was pretty nervous but I felt comfortable and I feel that I will be happy with it in the long run.
Josh did my tattoo, came in as a walk in and felt so comfortable! Definitely will be coming back!
Aiyana Medina was absolutely AMAZING!!!!! She was light handed yet produced top quality ink! She was so sweet! Her work is STUNNING!!!! I’m beyond words happy with how this turned out!!! She is my artists 4life!!!! She may still be in her apprenticeship but she is clearly a natural and has talent dripping from her needles!!! Everyone was awesome such a great atmosphere! Great music great people!!! I will be telling everyone I know about Vatos Locos!
Shout out to DoeboySavage for the piercing I highly recommend she really is an amazing piercer . She made my piercing quick and less painful. thank you so much !!!!
I love my nose piercing, done by Savage (Steff)! She did an amazing job. She’s probably the first piercer that has ever explained to me the tools she used and how she was going to use them. She talked to me step by step on what she was going to do. Can’t wait to get more piercings with her! Highly recommend.
My tattoo artists are Amazing!!! They always help me with the right tattoo design and colors. Excellent customer service!!!
Shout out to Joseph.love my tattoos see u next time im n Texas!!
Great place great environment got my first tattoo here. They really hooked me up. My artist Doeboy was great he made it feel like a breeze. Gave me exactly what I wanted and better’
My tattoo artist (doeboy) was very professional and friendly I was comfortable through the whole experience and this was my first tattoo so I appreciate that I was in a place where I enjoyed it. I would recommend this if you want a relaxed and comfortable while you get something done.
Very good place to get pierced. Vato Loco Tattoo shop was very friendly and professional. Loved Stephanie, she’s awesome. I will definitely be going back to get more piercings in the future
Thank you Stephanie for my nose and belly piercing. You are awesome! Warlock did 2 of my tattoos and they are amazing. Definitely my favorite ones on me. Thank you
Got tattooed here by Warlock. He did a great job! Also Vato Loco has great customer service and a great overall atmosphere. Highly recommend .
Doeboy gets down with what you want dont complain about the price its worth it you wont regret it
Great experience. Great work. Definitely will be returning. Tattoo artist DoeBoy.
BEST PIERCING EXPERIENCE EVER!! STEFF WAS AMAZING AND MADE MY EXPERIENCE SO COMFORTABLE AND EASY!! Thank you so much, you’re the bomb!!
Had Joseph do some really cool workAmazing artist at this shop
Stephanie (hope I spelled it right) is the best piercer ever. She did my Daith piercing, she was careful, precise and quick yet gentle and very nice. I will be back
Steff made sure my friend & i were both comfy when we went in for our piercings. Super sweet & very friendly. Javi did my first 2 tattoos & I’ll continue to go back for me. The staff is all amazing & super talented.
Warlock did my daughters names and birthdays tattoos and did an amazing job. Had such patience with helping me figure out what size and font I wanted them to make them perfect. While I waited for him to get all the things ready for the tattoos Dorry did such an amazing job with my nose piercing which is why I went back for my tongue (snake eyes) piercing. Also, I was recommended by Warlock to purchase this amazing ointment to help with the healing of my tattoos that helped not only to decrease the peeling and itchiness but also helped maintain the dark color of my tattoos. To this day my tattoos don’t look faded or anything. I will definitely be going back for tattoos and piercings
Came here with a idea/concept For a tattoo but what Doeboy savage did far exceeded my expectations! On a scale of 1-10 it was a 100. The hospitality was amazing Stephanie was kind and tentative. The shop has a bunch of friendly staff always felt welcomed. I would recommend this shop to everyone with out hesitation and will definitely be back to see what other masterpiece doeboy savage can do for me bc he has a attention to detail that I have never seen or encountered in all my other tattoo experiences.
Went in to do a down payment on my tat... walked out with a nose piercing. Love this place, so respectful and kind.
Great experience for first tattoo. Doeboy was gentle, professional, and nice. I love my tattoo that honors my father!
This place is amazing, shout out to Stephanie for having good piercings skills and knowledge, I also loved my Tattoo thank y’all so much.
Nothing can describe how much I love the tattoo I got from Warlock!!! He did my very first tattoo and walked me through each step he was doing and how he was doing it. He is the man that I want to get all my tattoos from. On top of that he was super cool to talk too and he made feel welcomed. Also, this is to anyone reading this, let him have a little artistic freedom when it comes down to your tattoo. I promise you, you wont regret it. My tattoo was a moth on a fern and there wasnt much to it, but he made pop out and look even better than the original photo!!!
Very friendly staff, the lady who did my nose piercing was so sweet only place I would go for anything, don’t be a little b**** and leave a tip for my girl!
Joseph did an AWSOME job! ️
Stephanie is great with piercings, she did both sides of my nostril perfect!!! Highly recommend!
BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! STEFF DID AN AMAZING JOB ON MY BELLY PIERCING.
Perfect place for anyone looking to get a tattoo! Had mine done by no one other than doeboy himself! He does a very excellent job and really shows interest in his work! Hit him up for some clean tattoos this is my guy from now on! Dont sleep on him he’s the one!
I love my cute foot tattoo of a heart and anchor by Warlock he was cool and funny and everyone there was cool with good vibes. Hubby and I will be coming back..
Best experience ! Steff is super amazing at piercing it did not hurt at all I never even felt the piercing! I’d rate this 100%
Felt real comfortable during the whole process, attended me quickly too. Good attention to detail and my tattoo came out sick definitely recommend, also shoutout to Doeboy Savage for making me leave the shop looking like a G with my clean tattoo
Steph was awesome and fast with my nose piercing. She was sweet!
Very good spot to get tatted...great prices and great customer service...big ups too doeboy he hooked me up....
If you want a piercing ask for stephanie ! She very good and gentle, I got my belly pierced and it didn’t even hurt !
Joseph made a couple of minimalist tattoos on me. The lettering was perfect and neat
Got a Trangus piercing 2 days ago with a friend . Called today and stated the jewelry was way to small ans embedding deep in my ear and I needed it taken out or changed . The piercer Stephanie told me take it out and I stated I can’t it hurts because it’s embedding ... she then proceeds to tell me it’s just a lock on the back . I don’t care if it’s a lock on the back .... it’s embedded in my ear . Never coming back here again
100% professional & Clean & sterile service& consistency
Joseph was excellent the whole staff is very friendly and professional thanks again Ill be back
Joseph did a tattoo on my chest and was so considered of me being comfortable and it was an amazing tattoo! I come here for all my piercings and more tattoos
If you’re ever in need of a piercing, go see Dorry! She made the experience a lot better than I was expecting. She was very personable. She wasn’t stoned-faced like you come across most times in a tattoo shop. I was a nervous wreck when I went in & even still during the piercing but Dorry made sure I was comfortable before she pierced.
Doeboy is awesome!!!! Hes a beast with cover-ups. Ill definitely be back. Thanks!!!
I went to Vat Loco to get a second opinion on a septum piercing I just got. The piercer I went to at urbans pierced so far up inside my nose, in my cartilage. Dorry was able to take the piercing out and repierce it the correct way. Thank you Dorry!!!
Doeboy did an awesome job on my Frankenstein tattoo
Cool little place and reasonably priced. Hector was great and did great work! Will DEFINITELY be going back.
She has the best hand ever so smooth and professional
Warlock did an amazing job on my watercolor tattoo! He has 33years of experience, make an appointment with him TODAY! I drove almost 2 hours to get my tattoo, and I will definitely do it again.
My home girl Steffenie is the best
Went in to have my nose pierced for my bday. The young lady was great. This wasnt a pierce and pay type of situation which i have seen on occasion at other tattoo places. She helped with placement, told me my care instructions, and sent me on my way as a happy customer.
Stephanie was so sweet, welcoming and amazing! ️
Dorry is the best! Piercing went smooth with no pain and she is very professional.
Dorry is amazing!! Super nice and careful, she just doesn’t rush she takes her time and converses with you! I have gotten my nose and smiley done with her.
Stephanie did my piercings with quick and ease, loved it!!
It was a clean shop. Got my nose pierced by the young lady. She was very informative and did a good job.
Both my wife and I got tattoos done by Warlock. We did it for a fundraiser sponsored by Vato Loco to raise money for Suicide Prevention. He did great. I will be back. The vibe and atmosphere is also excellent.
Dorry was amazing! She was super careful and talked through everything she did to ensure I was comfortable.
Doeboy is the man!!! Ive been going to him for a long time and gotten had 8 tattoos from him in the last year. Nothing but perfection every single time. I will never get work done by anyone else.
Awesome tattoo artist, they are always involved in the community, and they have a great shop environment!
Me and my girlfriend got our piercings by Steff which who was very professional and friendly.
This is a great shop. My wife and I both got tattoos there a couple of weeks ago, from Warlock, and Big Dawg and we are very pleased with them. I have gotten tattoos at a few different shops in the past, and none of them were even close to this one. The place has a cool vibe, great artists, they do great work, and have fair pricing. From here on out, I wont go anywhere else.
My wife went in to do a cover up tattoo, and Javier was happy to assist. He was very patient and had to add some last minute changes to the drawing that my wife wanted, the tattoo came out looking awesome. I would highly recommend Javier at Vato Loco Tattoos, he does excellent work and has great customer service.
Went here for my nose piercing 2.5 months ago and Dorry did an amazing job with making me feel comfortable and being real chill. Nose piercing healed perfectly and I was able to switch it out for a hoop easily. Would definitely come back.
Very awesome stephany is amazing
Warlock is an excellent tattoo artist without a doubt!!! . We are visiting from Daytona Beach and I must tell you, we were impressed with his work. He did a 3D tattoo on my wife and it came out just as detailed. Needles to say we were both very happy with the artist (Warlock), and will definitely absolutely positively will come back to get more tattoos done the next time we are in town. Thank you Vatos Locos!!!!
DON’T COME HERE!!!!!!! BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE.DID NOT GREET US OR HELP US IN ANY WAY.SKYLAR DID NOT SEEM INTERESTED ON DOING MY TATTOO, HAD TO WALK OUT. THEY ONLY ATTENTED ME AND NOT THE REST OF MY FRIENDS OR HUSBAND.
Loved my first visit will be going back.
Five stars with two thumbs up... Love my tatts...
Skylar was so negative when we walked in.... First he didnt have time to draw, didnt give any positive advice, discouraged me to get a finger tattoo and then said he didnt have the small needle that he needed. This place aint like it used to be.
I went Friday the 13th and it was crazy packed. Waited for 6 hours.But overall, the experience was great. The employees had great personality’s, made me feel comfortable and always had a smile on their faces . very clean & professional. Especially for being a sale day the artist took his time and really allowed me to feel comfortable.I will definitely come back .
Love it...great people and do awesome tatts....
Got my double helix done a month ago and I went back to get my nose pierced a few days ago. Same chill energy, I didn’t feel nervous being in the space. Love my piercings, will be back for my industrial
Super clean studio and friendly staff. Love my new tattoo by Warlock!
It was my first tattoo and I was super nervous but Warlock was AWESOME. He totally eased my worries and gave me a beautiful tattoo, highly recommend this place. Also helped that the atmosphere was super chill and professional at the same time. Definitely coming back for my next tattoo!
Very friendly, great customer service. Very clean. Highly recommend this place! Dorry did a piercing for my daughter. She did excellent!
VERY NICE & CLEAN PROFESSIONAL TATTOO AND PIERCING SHOP...
This establishment is VERY unprofessional, and ZERO customer service care. My husband and I came in on a Friday, spoke to HECTOR, each one of us were getting tattoos on the following Saturday, he said he would sketch them up and send them to us on Monday. Come Thursday we had to reach out to him bc we had yet to hear from him. He said he would send them to us later when he got home. Come Friday morning NOTHING, so we reached back out and asked for our $40 deposit that we had to leave Friday to even book our appointment. He then stated he could send us the sketches he just got caught up in his personal life and forgot...WHAT??? this is your job how the heck do you forget. At this point we were not interested in having him ink us. He then stated we had to talk to the Owner to get our refund. My husband called later that day and the lady at the front desk stated the owner was there but would not like to speak to us regarding our issues. She kept stating that the deposit was for cancellations and we seemed to be cancelling. YES BC YOUR ARTIST FAILED TO COMPLY TO HIS JOB AND WORD on sending us our sketches not once but TWICE. Why would we want to continue our appointment? They expect customers to hold up to their appointments by putting down deposits but yet its okay for the artist to not hold up there end of the business deal, and the owner could care less. STAY AWAY......We also have all the text and excuses that were giving to us.
Called to see if they had time for two small tattoos that would take no more than 30 minutes. Lady up front said “come on in.” We get there and she tells us no one is available until tomorrow. Then I asked for the pricing and they wanted $100 for 3 small letters and a thumb finger tatttoo on the hand. Safe to say we won’t be back.
Loved the whole experience
Awesome shop! It was an easy and laid back process and environment. My tattoo came out great! Check them out!
Amazing piercer thank u dorry!!!
The lines on my tattoo are not straight, the Roman numerals have some parts covered and they scarred my arm. I didnt even go for the free touch up.
