About Salvation Tattoo
Salvation Tattoo sits in Dallas' Bishop Arts district, and it's earned a reputation as one of the most respected tattoo shops in the city. The specialty here is American traditional, the bold old-school work the studio was built on, but the artists handle color and illustrative pieces just as comfortably, and there's fine line work in the mix too. Between them the crew carries over twenty years of combined experience, and it shows.
Ask anyone who's been inked here and a few names come up again and again. SJ, who tattoos as San Juanita (@salchichatattoos), has a real following, especially for first-timers who are nervous. People swear by how patient and detailed she is, right down to talking through placement and how a tattoo will age.
Jason Fancher gets praise for how much he collaborates and listens, and folks who've worked with Phil and Sam say the same, expert work done by genuinely talented, welcoming people. The word around Dallas is that this is one of the best shops on Davis. The studio itself is known for being spotless and easygoing, the kind of place where you feel comfortable throwing ideas around.
Walk-ins are welcome, though a bit of local advice: come in with an idea of what you want rather than expecting to flip through the portfolio and decide on the spot. People also mention the prices being fair for the caliber of work. For expert tattooing in a clean, friendly shop, Salvation is an easy one to recommend.
