The Filtered Culture: 2011

Sideshow Tattoo is an awesome tattoo shop located in Austin Texas, with deep roots in vintage themes, a strong musical background, modern chic artwork and more. When you walk in you immediately realize that you're in a place of quality and professionalism, not just your run-of-the mill downtown come-and-go tattoo parlor.

When you think about getting your first tat, It's hard to imagine exactly how it's going to turn out, cause there are literally a ton of tattoo artists out there-- especially here in Austin and they all claim to be the best. (I literally searched Austin for months) If you haven't been tattooed before you're probably going to think about the most important thing and that's not the pain-- it's how the tattoo is going to look. I've heard so many different things from everyone about how the experience was going to be, the risks I was taking, and that a prior relationship with the tattoo artist matters if you want a good job done. I was able to walk in with an idea and walk out with new friends and a beautiful work of art on my arm.

I couldn't be happier with my experience at Sideshow Tattoo. They do an amazing job. Like them now here on Facebook.
