Dapper Ink Tattoo

So not gonna lie. I was kinda nervous for my 3rd tattoo. But when your best friend suggests we get matching tattoos for her first one, you go ham! I am beyond elated that this place was above and beyond my expectations! The only sucky part was how COVID requirements dont allow walk ins or over the phone appointments. You would need to contact the tattoo artist through their Instagram account. Luckily we had a great pair of artists that were patient with us for our schedule!My best friend Marie chose a random mandala on the internet for us. We also chose Debo as our artist because of how awesome his stuff was on Instagram! (d3380 is his Instagram account, just fyi!) He didnt mind being able to do ours one after the other! So we sent him the picture she found and formulated his own beautiful/original version of one! I wanted him to add beads to mine and he made that come out beautifully as well!He was super patient with us. Firstly, we were 10 mins late which i hated but he understood what happened prior to. Then, i kept switching if i wanted my shoulder or forearm before finally settling on my forearm. And then, when it was Maries turn, we kept chatting away like crazy that it took a bit longer for her to even get started and i made her move too much. Our poor guy! Lol. The other artist David Glim did one for my husband before us. Magnificent work! We did the same picture submission and made it that much better! We are super super satisfied aboht our new tats and i cant wait to come back for touch ups on an old one and add water colors to my mandala!

This place is amazing! I was looking for an artist and I saw a local female who was working at Dave and Buster's with a traditional sleeve tattoo that was eye catching. I asked her who was her artist and her exact words "Eric Melendez is the only artist I go to". Of course after the conversation and some research, it lead me to this awesome establishment. Dapper Ink, these guys know their craft with no sense of arrogance. Everyone is warm and welcoming. This friendly staff listens to each clients request, and advises them with their professional evaluation. I was in El Paso for 3 years and I became a regular because of their hospitality. I think the pictures speak for themselves. The quality of work is superb. The environment feels clean and homey.

The Dapper Ink staff is very helpful and cater to what you are looking for. They do an amazing job and you're greeted with a warm "Welcome to Dapper Ink" as soon as you walk in. You're promptly approached by the shop manager or artists and asked what you're looking for. They give you their best opinion on how to better suit the tattoo of your choosing. If you don't have an idea, they can even work with you then. They have a great amount of experience behind them.The shop is very clean and very inviting. They use all disposable tools so I felt very safe. They communicate well with each other and come off as a very family like. Their lobby is very comfortable and the music or movies that they are going on are always very pleasant. I highly recommend this shop and will continue to come here for the rest of my work.

If there was ten stars to give I'd do it. I highly recommend this place. Very clean very professional and bad ass choice of music too lol. Brian was a beast and is one of the best artists I've seen out there and I wish I would have came to him early to get all of my ink done there.

I scheduled an appointment with Erick for a tattoo and he did a nice job. The shop was neat, and portfolios are available up front to look through. Will be a returning customer. Everyone working was friendly and welcoming.

I have gotten 4 tattoos done here, all decent size pieces. Eric is the owner, and he is a multiple award winner. Brian is also incredibly talented and along with tattoos he does amazing paintings. My artist has been David Glim and he has a great knack for color and shading and detail. The shop also has an Instagram page. I'm not affiliated with the shop, I am just a huge fan of excellent customer service and talented artists who love what they do. This is one of the best shops in EP, in my opinion. Tell 'em Maggie sent ya.

I love the customer service here. I've had one small piece, one very large piece, an ornamental flower, and a revamp of an older tattoo done by Angel Guzman. His tattoos are fun and he puts his own spin to them. His company is absolutely phenomenal too. I've been to two Sun City tattoo shops in El Paso and neither of them even come close to Dapper Ink in any way.

Awesome place artist are on point with appts and great attention to detail. David Glim has been my tattoo guy really recommend setting a appt with him

I moved here a year ago and tattoos are always wanted. I did a lot of research and Dapper Ink was the best. David Glim was amazing. Wonderful with the conversation and was able get my tattoo just like the picture. If you're looking for a place look no further.

Don't know how their tattoos are but hope it's better than their customer service. Walked into the place to ask about pricing and nobody wanted to help didn't even acknowledge me and my girlfriend so we sat there awkwardly waiting for a few min.
