Welcome to the new RAWINK Tattoo & Piercing Studio!

FINALLY settling in to 7601-D Airpark Road and beginning the next chapter as a shop. We remain the original crew without changing our idea of customer service since we opened in 2009. It is our pleasure to be working for you and we will do everything possible to ensure your expectations are exceeded. Unless you bring exactly what you want, we would love to draw something custom for you because we believe tattoos should be an expression of your individuality.

The learning never stops when you share a space with this group of talented artists. The larger space at the new shop was much needed as we grew out of our shell pretty quickly at the old shop. Now, each artist has their own separate studio room for added privacy and more wall space for our individual expressions. All of this comes together to create a fun, comfortable experience for every one of our guests. Read more about each artist by visiting their portfolio pages.

When you walk in to our lobby you won't be greeted by walls of flash for you to choose from because we prefer to draw something custom for your tattoo. We have plenty of reference in books and digital photography as well as our own artwork to inspire you.

Half way down the well lit hall way full of classic tattoo art, you'll step up to a landing where our copier and thermofax are available for us to make quick adjustments to our designs. To the right is the entrance to the lounge. Our reference library and lounge is the largest area of our shop and it's just for you! It is sound proof and perfect for events and performers on special occasions (like Tuesday, or Friday, or whenever we're feeling it!). also. You'll know when you see this room. Complimentary water, red carpet, leather sofa, movies, and some of the latest tattoo and fine arts magazines are here to make your wait more comfortable.

Our Dedicated Sterilization Room has been totally revamped with our newfound abundance of space. We have dedicated a much larger room to the cleaning of our tools and supplies. We still primarily use one-use-only supplies (meaning our needles, tubes, etc. are only used once then disposed of) although some artists choose to use a combination of steel and disposable tubes. This process is more expensive but worth it for every inch of your new tattoo. This room is now complete with two digital autoclaves, an ultrasonic cleaner, a sink and an air purifier. The room is also closely monitored with monthly spore testing which is proudly displayed on the outside of the door for our guests to inspect.

The transition from the old shop couldn't have come at a better time. We were all feeling the pressure of outgrowing our old studio. As soon as we found the new location, we all had our hands in the demolition and construction after hours to make this work, and work it did! Almost instantly we noticed growth as a shop, as individual artists, and as friends. Looking back at the old shop, its hard to imagine tattooing in the summer without AC!

Inside we sell paintings from local artists, a full line of jewelry for just about every piercing you can imagine, hand blown glass plugs for stretched ears, wooden stash boxes with tattoo art painted on it, t-shirts, hats, artist made tattoo machines and much more.

We have events at the shop as well as at other venues. BAR-INKs are parties at a bar near you where we tattoo live all night, with a live band, vendors and tattoo contests. But the events held at our shop truely bring the space alive with bands on the stage in the lounge, free food, art shows/auctions, and much more!
