About San Antonio Rose Tattoo
San Antonio Rose Tattoo is a private, appointment-only studio run by artist Milton Holbrook, based in Cibolo and serving the greater San Antonio area. It's one of the most respected tattoo studios around, and once you talk to the folks who've been inked here, you understand why. The name that comes up every single time is Milton, and people don't just like his work, they trust him with all of it. He's known for black and grey, neo-traditional, color, and realism, with a real strength in custom pieces designed specifically for the person wearing them.
His black and grey portraits in particular get talked up a lot. Cover-ups are part of what he does too. Ask anyone who's sat in his chair and they'll tell you he walks you through the choices he made for your piece, listens to your ideas, and turns them into something one of a kind. The studio itself gets called the cleanest shop people have ever been tattooed in, and the private setting is a big part of the appeal.
Milton is easygoing and professional at once, keeps snacks and drinks on hand, and is patient if you need to take a break. Several regulars have kept coming back for years, some even traveling from out of state because they won't go to anyone else. The word around San Antonio is that his prices are fair and the work holds up beautifully over time. One longtime client summed it up: the only problem with Milton is that he's so good it's hard to consider anyone else.
Book ahead, since he works by appointment only.
