Very clean and comfortable. Tam did an awesome job! I highly recommend!

I got my first tattoo today and it looks amazing. I am definitely going to come back if I want another!!

I understand upholding the law and wanting to keep your license but you guys are losing sight of the point. Maybe you got burned in the past, in which case, I get it, but maybe you need to read this: https://www.txdps.state.tx.us/internetforms/Forms/DL-17.pdf.



There are primary and secondary forms of identification as outlined by the State of Texas. I know how important it is to cover your bases BUT you should follow ALL of the rules, not just the part of them.



"If an applicant is unable to present a document from the primary identification chart, the applicant must present either two secondary documents or one secondary and two supporting documents for identification purposes..."



"...Texas Administrative Code Title 37, Part 1, Chapter 15, Subchapter B, Rule §15.24, and can be referenced at www.sos.state.tx.us/tac/."



I lost my license and now have a paper temp license receipt with no photo but I have a PHOTO ID from the City with height and description on it, a notarized copy of my birth certificate (Secondary Form of ID), my SSN card, my voter's registration card, vehicle title, vehicle registration, an old expired DL (with photo), an old expired military dependent card (with photo) and more (all of which are supporting documents) and you guys REFUSED to accept these as legitimate forms of ID. If I was at a government office these would be ACCEPTABLE FORMS OF IDENTIFICATION. I hope your inability to be flexible and adhere to ALL of the Texas Rules for Acceptable Identification is worth your loss in revenue.



I respect following the rules. I understand wanting to do things the right way. I don't understand being so inflexible (within the boundaries of state law) and basically acting like jerks. I personally won't be back and I can guarantee that I won't be recommending you to anyone I know.

EST. 2002 HELLBENT TATTOOS & BODY PIERCING stop in ALL ARTIST PORTFOLIOS are on display .... THANKS TO ALL MY CLIENTS , Ricky Tucker

Messed up my rook piercing. It's so shallow you can see the metal bar through my cartilage. They had to repierce my friends tragus 3 times.

This is the only place i go to get my tattoos. Ask for Tony. He is so awesome at what he does! And he makes your time being there a good one. Check out Hellbent whenever you're ready for your next tattoo or piercing!

I love coming to this place. I drive from Waco to Arlington just to come to this place just so I can get a tattoo I have gotten two so far and ill be coming back for 3 more! I highly recommend this place, ask for Tony he'll get you right and work with you to make your tat! Look good! Can't wait to come back for my next 3 pieces.

I've had three tattoos done at Hellbent (one was a correction of a tattoo that I got at another well known Arlington shop) and I couldn't be happier! Tony is by far the best artist that I've ever had the pleasure of working with! He's very professional and definitely a perfectionist. Exactly what someone wants when they are getting a permanent piece of art on their body. He's great at providing guidance when helping you design a tattoo. He takes extreme pride in his art and it shines through in his work. I'm a weenie and I barely felt the pain; he has such a light hand! He made me feel so comfortable and at ease, I couldn't be more satisfied with my experience. Definitely going back to Tony for all of my other tattoos!

I love this place. I have gotten 2 tattoos so far, and they are the best ones I have. The people who work there are so nice and very helpful. I actually sent one of my friends there and she loves her tattoo. She said the same about the employees. I will continue to get my tattoos there always. Keith did both of my tattoos and he is just awesome.

Love you guys.

People aren't very welcoming especially little old lady behind the counter. I felt tense and unwanted as soon as I walked in. Glad I went some where else! It was empty when I walked in and I can see why now. Definitely wouldn't go back for anything! I drove all the way to forth worth and I'm glad I did! I hope they read these reviews Bc they need to improve on there customer service!

Not a place I'd recommend for anyone wanting decent service. The rates they give are outrageous compared to other shops. Any questions you have get scoffed at as if you're stupid. I can see why the shop is usually empty compared to others around Arlington. High prices,unfriendly staff and unkempt environment are what you'll get here!!!

Keith was so great !! Very patient and attantive.And tatoo looks great !

Okay guys please do not even pay mind to the "bad" comments! This place rocks! It has a welcoming environment , the staff is really legit, and cool && really friendly. && it seems the customers are too! haha! I walked in && everyone said "Hi!!" and what's up && what was I getting today! I love Connie! Shes the one who does piercings there. Shes soooo so sweet, && tells you everything you need to know! They sell EVERYTHING you need right in the shop, so you do not have to go anywhere else! I got their Hellbent Saline Solution for my piercing! All I have to do is shake, spray, && go. I love it! Thank you guys for a wonderful experience!

I have been there twice and I really like this tattoo and piercing shop. The people are friendly, the shop is clean and they are knowledgeable about what they do and their products. They can customize what you want or use a template of a pattern you have purchased or one of their own. They are good artists.



Thanks again for a great tattoo folks!

They weren't rude but... They also weren't friendly.

The atmosphere left me gasping for breath.

It was uptight, tense, and no one seemed very friendly nor helpful.

When I got my lip done, no one asked me if I'd ever had it done professionally,

I was not given cleaning instructions or information,

And I was not comforted in any way.



The piercer seemed nice enough once he was away from every one else,

But he too seemed to uptight.



Overall, I would not want to go back there for further piercings.

Go shop around ! ! Then go over to Hellbent Tattoos ..... You wont go anywhere else ..... I WILL REFER ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY TO HELLBENT .... Do yourself a favor and go talk to these guys for your next tat or piercing ....

By far the CLEANEST SHOP my family has EVER been in .... Go ask for the OWNERS ! ! Connie & Rick are the GREATEST ! ! Check out there website ....

They let an apprentice tattoo me without informing me. They charged double what other studios charge (even if it's an apprentice) and the tattoo peeled off 2 weeks later. Then, when I went back to complain, they blamed me for not asking if my artist was an apprentice! The apprentice was fired and the owners son said he would NOT back up any of his artists/employees. I was then threatened with violence by the owners son. He told me he was going to kick my Mother F****ing A** while hitting his open palm with his fist. I felt threatened so I left. Connie ("the owner") called my house tonight at midnight to tell me she was going to sue me for defamation of character. What an idiot! DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT go to Hellbent unless you actually want a terrible tattoo done by inexperienced artists (check their website- http://www.hellbenttattoo.com/gallery/ ) or if you want to be harassed in the middle of the night for expressing your concerns. You've been fairly warned!

I went to Hellbent 3 weeks ago to get a tattoo my daughter drew. It was expensive but I figured, You get what you pay for so it must be good. WRONG! I paid. I sat in the chair. Jeremiah did my tattoo. I left. 2 weeks later the ink peeled off! I went back to Hellbent to express my disappointment. I asked to speak to someone in charge. This guy comes up and says what’s the problem. I show him my foot and he laughs! I told him Jeremiah did this. He said well, he was fired. He said, wait another week and come back and we’ll touch it up. I said, You don’t understand. I don’t want to come back here. What are you going to do to make this right? He said, nothing. Jeremiah was an apprentice! WTH?! I started to get angry at this point. He (who turned out to be the owners son) said I should’ve asked if the person tattooing me was an apprentice. Excuse me? I paid full price for an apprentice? There was no one helping him or standing with him supervising or anything. Not a single person mentioned ANYthing about Jeremiah being an apprentice. I guarantee you that if they had I would not have let him tattoo me even if someone was watching him. So, anyway, I tell “dude” (don’t know his name) that he needs to take responsibility. He says nope, he doesn’t back up his employees! At this point, voices are raised but there is no cursing. He walks behind the counter and starts to punch his open palm and tells me he is going to “kick” my “mother f****ing ass”! That is a direct quote! He said it in front of customers! That place has NO customer service! NO ethics whatsoever! What kind of shop doesn’t ASK you if you mind an apprentice doing your tattoo? And usually that means less money. NO they didn’t inform me nor did I get any sort of discount for an apprentice. But, it’s my fault for “not asking”. STAY AWAY from Hellbent!!!! If you want a great tattoo, surrounded by great and fun people with morals and ethics go to Custom Tattoo! Johnny fixed me up! Great, talented, fun guy that had sympathy for what I had been through at Hellbent. Apparently Johnny has fixed up a lot of Hellbents botched jobs. Not a single person at Hellbent has ANY talent or brains. They very obviously have NO CLUE what they are doing in tattoo OR business!
