I needed to get a new piercing put back on and they gave me the best option of help they could offer and were so sweet and helpful :,)
I have gotten 2 of my tattoos here and both times Ive had an amazing experience! I recently got another tattoo here recently and Madi was so amazing to fit me in last minute and the tattoo looks so much better than I could ever imagine. Very clean, talented artists and great prices. Will continue to get all my tattoos here and will recommend to my friends, as well
Jacob Ladd has done two tattoos for me there and they both turned out even better than I expected. Professional, punctual, and made the experience enjoyable. I highly recommended Jake if you’re looking for quality on all forms.
Friendly staff and very relaxed. It didn’t make me feel nervous- I was just excited and the people are so sweet! Jacob and Maggie were great!
My friend & I came by yesterday to get nostril piercings & it was probably the best piercing experience I’ve ever had! Very clean & sterile, super friendly, and it was fast! Aedras and Quanyin explained everything thoroughly before and after getting pierced & worked with me on making sure I was comfortable with the placement of the piercing. 10/10 would recommend & I’m definitely coming back for more! ️
Came in with my husband to get tattoos for our anniversary. I had seen Daniels artwork on a friend. We drove from San Antonio to San Marcos to meet with him and it was so worth the trip! Daniel got exactly what we wanted, was creative with the designs and we got right to work. The tattoos turned out beautifully and the amount of detail and strength of his line work just made our tattoos even stronger. We both love them!!The shop is gorgeous. The artwork is for sale and give the shop a gallery feel. You can also get pierced or pick up some jewelry in the shop.We are already talking about other ideas for tattoos and we will make the drive back to San Marcos!
I had a great experience here. The people were so kind, explained everything really well, and made me feel so safe! I’ll be coming back for any of my future piercing or tattoo needs!
Super nice staff! Very professional and helped me with a piercing gone wrong!
I cannot review this place highly enough. The building itself is clean, comfortable, and welcoming. The jewelry is beautiful, and I actually chose a pair that also supported a good cause! Win, win. Aedras did a fabulous and professional job on both me and my sister’s ears and made me feel really relaxed. We’ll never go anywhere else. 10 out of 10!
I’ve been looking to get a piece for a while, but I haven’t been able to find a reputable shop in town. After some searching, I decided one and only was a good shot. Daniel and the staff are extremely nice, and their work speaks for themselves. I explained my budget, and we were able to reach a reasonable price. Madison was the one who tatted me; I can say without a doubt I was thoroughly impressed/satisfied by the end of the session, which only took about three hours or so. Overall, the place and my experience was pleasant and I definitely recommend getting piercings or tattoos here
Everything about this place was solid. Clean, professional, super nice, and Madison did an absolute amazing tattoo! Shes quite the artist, and draws extremely clean lines! Turned out better than I had hoped. Thank you!!!
As my first experience with piercing my nose was a nightmare, it was important to me to find a place in San Marcos where I felt comfortable enough to try again. That being said, I cannot rave about this place enough! Aedras answered all of my questions and made me feel at ease. Thank you so much! I will definitely be coming back!
My husband and I were celebrating our 10 year anniversary in the hill country and spontaneously decided to get some tattoos. One and Only Tattoo was recommended to us and I’m sure glad it was! Maddi did a great job on my small, but meaningful tattoo and did a killer job on my husbands larger piece. For a younger artist, she truly nailed it! The shop was extremely friendly, clean, and has such a cool vibe. I’ll definitely be coming back! Thanks Maddi and One and Only Tattoo for such a great first experience!
Went in for a septum piercing bc I read the great reviews about Aedras. I was not disappointed, she’s pretty knowledgeable and wants things to heal correctly. I knew my nose would be difficult bc my septum is super high so I’m glad I went to an experienced piercer. You are paying for quality at this place I highly recommend
My piercing came out awesome and Everything was very clean. Will be back for more work!
Got my nostril pierced with Aedras and she was the sweetest from beginning to end. She was incredibly helpful in helping me select my jewelry and she gave me so much good information on how to take care of my piercing. I’ve never had a piercer show so much care. 10/10 recommend you guys come here for your piercings! I will definitely be coming back when I’m ready to pierce something else!
Absolutely love the septum piercing I got today. Aedras is super sweet and amazing at what she does! The piercing didnt hurt at all! 10/10 would recommend.
This was the cleanest shop Ive ever been to, Daniel was very friendly and did some amazing work for me. Will definitely be coming back
Took my 9 year old daughter here to pierce her ears. Perfect! The service is phenomenal. Wide selection of jewelry to choose. Walked my daughter through every step. Quick and almost pain free. Amazing job!
I had an awesome experience getting pierced by Aedras here. She had an answer for every question I had and explained what she was doing the whole time. Shes a perfectionist which is a great trait to have in a piercer! Shes also super friendly which helped calm my nerves. I couldnt be happier with how my piercings turned out. The shop is very clean and theres tons of gorgeous artwork everywhere. Ill definitely be back.
I had been wanting a piercing on my left nostril for years now and now that I had recently turned 18, I excitedly searched after getting paid for a tattoo/piercing shop here in town, and the One & Only Tattoo Co really caught my attention because of their reviews, their work on their Instagram (@oneandonlytattoocompany) and their piercer’s work (@aedraselaine) most importantly in my case, respectively, and so I instantly called the beautiful shop and went in that same day about an hour before closing time and my mom and 2 sisters and myself met the piercer, AEdras Elaine, and she was extremely sweet and very helpful with guiding me through the process of picking out my stud and gave me exceptional (amazing!) advice and was super thoughtful and complimented me, and while doing my piercing she was very reassuring and it was a quick but amazing process and the end result was awesome and so cute! She was very detailed about the aftercare and healing processes and I’d love to get more done from her later and support more of her work and even my mother and my sisters were more interested in getting piercings of their own because of this cool visit! Thank you so much to my piercer, she truly rocks! And this place, it rules!!! ️ Thank you, God Bless all y’all! ️️️
I first went to One & Only Tattoo for a septum piercing back in January & had AEdras pierce me. She was so sweet & explained every single step to make sure I knew what was going on. She also gave me tips over healing & made whats supposed to be a painful experience so much better! I go back to change my jewelry every so often & shes always so kind & positive!This July I got a thigh piece by Saraloni. Getting tattoos is an experience & this one was AWESOME! She would talk to me to keep my mind off the pain, she would make sure I was doing okay, staying extremely positive throughout the entire process. She definitely made me feel like her best friend in those 6 hours of tattooing! I LOVED IT & my thigh piece is GORGEOUS! SO happy with the service and art here at this shop!
Love this shop! I went there on the recommendation of a friend and have zero regrets. Everyone there is friendly and welcoming; the art is amazing to look at; and the shop itself is clean, practical, and very appealing to stare at if your there for four hours. :) I already plan on getting the rest of my tattoos done at this shop.Daniel did my tattoo but if you check out their Instagram you will see that everyone there is talented. Their pricing is reasonable as well. Love it all!
AEdras Elaine did an AMAZING job on my septum piercing! I am in love, she was so professional, fun, and quick! Definitely going to her for anything else I decide to get:)
The artistry and level of attention to detail at One and Only are second to none. I get compliments literally multiple times a week on Daniels work. And the shop itself is full of amazing art--brilliantly designed. I drive in from Austin. Yes its that good!!
I was on a hunt to find the absolute best place to get my daughters ears pierced (she’s 7), and my sis but we’ll leave her age out LOL. And I knew better than to take her to a place like Claire’s. I feel like we’re so lucky to find One And Only Tattoo. Aedraselaine is beyond the best ever and if there were a billion stars I could give her and this place I would. This is the CLEANEST tattoo/piercing place I’ve ever been in. I even contemplated finding something on me to have pierced while we were there because the experience was so freakin amazing. I will 100% bring my youngest there (she’s 3) when she is ready to have her ears pierced because when you find the best why go anywhere else.
Got my second cartilage piercing here. I would definitely recommend going here. Aedras Elaine was friendly, fast, and gentle. The shop also features a large selection of adorable jewelry and artwork to buy.
Took my daughter to get pierced for her birthday.We were super impressed.Our first experience at One &Only Tattoo was awesome we will definitely go back.Aedras was amazing.She greeted us as soon as we walked in,very professional and so knowledgeable.We felt very comfortable and can’t wait for our next visit
We brought our 7 year old daughter in to get her ears piecred. The customer service was great and Aedras (the piercer) was amazing with our daughter.
Never had my ear pierced because my left ear had a birth defect and I was afraid it would make me look unbalanced. I looked at many places for piercings from San Marcos to Austin and One & Only Tattoo was the only place I felt comfortable going. So happy I decided to get my piercings done here! Aedras explained everything very well, was patient and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this shop clean professional and very upfront and honest. Best part of the whole experience is I LOVE my piercings!
Absolutely love this place. I went to get a tattoo on friday and they were super nice. The environment is clean, cozy, trendy, and welcoming, and the people are the same. Am definitely going back!
Awesome place! Awesome staff!
Jake is a true artist, I am sleeved and on my face, but my new tattoo from Jake is truly the best Ive ever had. The experience was awesome and the shop is very comfortable and relaxing. Thank you Jake...
Came in for a repiercing, the piercer was highly educated and encouraged me with coaching how to re open the holes. Best experience ive had, and has a beautiful selection of fine body jewelry available. I highly recommend
Love this place. I wont go anywhere else. Highly recommend Daniel Love
Daniel is an incredible artist and very willing to make your vision come to life in ink on your body. Beautiful studio and so welcoming. Daniel is so friendly, felt like I am going to be tattooed by a long time friend. Will post once tattoo is complete. Definitely go to Daniel if your in the market for beautiful quality ink.
My daughter and I had a great experience at One & Only! Everyone was friendly and welcoming. I felt like we were walking into a salon. Everything down to the background music was perfect! This was my first of several sessions with Saraloni and I love what we have so far! I’m looking forward to my next appointment in June!! Aedras pierced my daughter’s nose and it’s adorable! She was nervous, but Aedras put her at ease and did an excellent job with after care instructions.
Had a great experience here. was able to book an appointment right away. staff was friendly and helpful. I had a fun time chatting with them while getting work done. The shop is clean and the art inside is amazing. The location is nice. If you cant find parking on the square there is plenty down San Antonio Street and the walk isnt bad at all. They have farmers market on the square during the weekend so plan to park far away on Saturdays. I made the stupid choice of sitting five hours straight on one piece and when my endorphins wore off Jacob was really kind and talked me through the pain while he finished the last parts of the tattoo.
Good folks here, Professional, effiecent and Jacob did great work for me!
Nicest shop Ive been to, Definitely will be a repeat customer!
Beautiful shop and even better tattoo work. One of the most elegant and clean shops Ive ever been in, amazing artwork everywhere. 5 stars well earned!
Super caring and attentive staff. Personalized to my needs for my piercing and took the proper time to explain after care and the process. Will certainly return for future piercings and tattoos!
Most beautiful tattoo shop I have ever been to! Awesome staff. Couldnt be more thrilled with the gorgeous work I got done here.
Our service was very quick, helpful, and thorough. We will definitely be going back.
Anthony was Great . Good work Ill be back soon! Friendly staff nice clean Shop!
Callie was very professional and great personality and I would highly recommend her! Thanks for taking such great care of me!!!
My experience with sara loni was great she was super welcoming and made me super comfortable it was my first tattoo so she made the experience great
Spent over six months of trying to schedule a tatoo. Gave my deposit, scheduled it, tatoo artist cancelled the day before. Rescheduled, cancelled the night before. This went on several more times, before I said no more. Maybe they are paying rent with consultation money. Good Luck actually getting a tatoo. Maybe in a year.
I came there for my first tattoo, I love it so much. The shop isnt like other tattoo shops, its calming and beautiful. I will be coming back for sure!!!!
Couldn’t be happier with the work done by their artist Jake. I came in with a concept and he executed it perfectly, not to mention he’s very easy on the eyes. It was a professional and enjoyable experience and I’ll be coming here again!
Ask for Daniel. You wont regret it. Friendly and very artistic.
Awesome! Saraloni is the best!
Daniel and his team are amazing !
Awesome skill Anthony Z.
