Tattoo shops in the DMV

Artist was super easy to work with and helped me to find a design that worked for my cover up. He communicated what he was going to do and why throughout the whole process which left no room to question his professionalism. Lastly, the artist worked diligently for over 9 hours, only taking TWO breaks which were for me to use the bathroom. This left me nothing but satisfied with the price I paid to w work ratio. The tattoo came out amazing and with ow experienced and precise the artist is, was the least painful tattoo I’ve gotten despite being the longest session. The tattoo has already received countless compliments with people describing it less as a tattoo, and more as literally art painted on my body. Cannot recommend this artist enough.

Flew out to ROME to get tatted by the one and only! Always a blast, superior work and excellent vibes 10/10 would recommend

I came to Eric with one main goal: I needed a name completely covered, and I honestly wasn't sure what could be done with it. I gave him a few ideas, but ultimately trusted him as the artist to create something that would actually work as a cover-up and I'm so glad I did. The difference is amazing. You cannot tell there was ever a name underneath the new tattoo. He incorporated my butterfly into the design and created a beautiful piece that looks intentional instead of looking like a cover-up. The detail, color, shading, and especially the blue butterfly came out beautifully. Eric was also straightforward with me about what would/wouldn't work, which I really appreciated. He wasn't just going to give me something because I asked for it if he knew it wouldn't translate well or hold up as a tattoo. I trusted his professional judgment, and the finished result speaks for itself. I'm already planning to come back so we can continue the piece and either enhance or rework my other butterfly. Definitely recommend Eric, especially if you're looking for an artist who can take your ideas and create something you'll love.

I’ve have been to Erick for three of my tattoos and everytime he never fails to exceed my expectations. Very professional and detailed in his work!

Satch is a phenomenal artist. He tattooed me at the Hampton tattoo convention and he did an incredible piece. He has a really light touch so even though it was a tattoo in a painful area (back of the knee) it wasn’t a terrible experience.

Erick never misses. I’ve been going to him for years and was pleasantly surprised by how easy TattMe made it to book an appointment with him. Communication was great from start to finish, and everything was smooth throughout the process. I went into the appointment planning to finish an existing piece and somehow walked out with one of my favorite tattoos on a completely different body part. That’s what happens when you trust Erick and let him do his thing. One of the things I appreciate most is that he keeps you involved in the design process while still bringing his own creativity to the table. He made sure we were on the same page with the vision, but also wasn’t afraid to throw out ideas that made the tattoo even better than what I originally had in mind. His work speaks for itself. Every piece I’ve gotten from him has been solid, and this one is no different. If you’re thinking about getting tattooed by Erick, do it. You won’t be disappointed.

Great work thus far. Looking forward to the finish. Highly recommend if you want quality work done!!

Erick was amazing from start to finish. He was so thorough in explaining how the session was going to go, what his ideas were, and what he put together. He was sooo friendly and personable the entire time, I will absolutely be back for my next piece. I love how my tattoo turned out and I can’t wait until next time!

he did my mom’s tattoo she was overly pleased with the experience and the work

Great experience!!! Difficult coverup, but great end result. My piece isn’t finished and I’ve received crazy feedback on my sleeve. I will definitely get more work done in the near future.
