Manifest Tattoo Society — Local services in Waxahachie

I got this tattoo in May when visiting from Alaska, and had booked the appointment months in advanced. I specifically chose Manifest because of all of the great reviews, and also the work I have personally seen done here. The line work and shading in the tattoos, are very impressive, and I was excited to come. I had also emailed(prior to putting the deposit for the appointment) him the reference photos, as well as the placement, and what size we wanted the tattoo.

Now with that being said I am very disappointed in the services provided. This is a matching tattoo with a friend of mine, and they both take on completely different shapes. Not only were the lines in the tattoo terribly placed, and not filled in all the way. But the artist made it clear with his actions he was not a fan of doing small tattoos.

I would recommend this shop for larger tattoos. But if you’re looking for something smaller than 2 inches; I recommend finding someone else, (no matter what the size), who will take pride in the work they provided. For a $100 minimum on tattoos, I expected a bit more attention and care for the work I received. Or even a decline of the work, if he wasn’t going to take the time to make it right.

In the pictures provided are: Mine after the healing process. Our tattoos together with the second skin over it(so you can’t tell the places he missed). Her tattoo after healing.

(PS this is not my first tattoo. I understand hand tattoos have more wear...

I do not recommend at all. I had asked for something specifically and got something dark and not what I wanted. When I asked to get fixed the guy there ghosted and kept reading but not replying. On top had to call the shop to get a response. Then finally oh I can get you in and add some color accents end of may. Yeah no. You knew I wasn’t happy with the work done since march. This should have been fixed then and if you’re so busy (Fabian) should have put me in sooner. I will leave 0 stars. I have all the receipts for proof. Ended up going to a professional that fixed this work and an educator who had to fix this bad overshadowed piece of work. RUN! DO not come here to se Fabian if you don’t like overshadowed crazy work. I don’t know what the problem was. I thought his work is Great it is. But when you are asking for work that’s light and color and a memorial piece for a loved one that’s gone now, this isn’t the way you treat people. I wanted this fixed. I asked many times. I wasn’t happy with it. And then had to spend money somewhere else to get this fixed. I will be taking this further to see my legal options as I shouldn’t have had to spend more money on this when it should have been fixed then. HORRIBLE customer service. Horrible. Only care...

I booked an appointment with Bmac pretty far in advance and was very excited to try him out! When it came time to come I was greeted by everyone and had the opportunity to chat it up with Stars wife which after that conversation with her I knew had chosen the right shop just based on the energy from the conversations and atmosphere I was experiencing while I waited for Brandon to get set up, super clean shop btw!!! Just a background on what I look for when choosing a shop, for most quality and consistency of good work, clean lines etc. which is important but also it’s the overall experience I’m paying for, both with the atmosphere and interaction with the artist. TOTALLY SOLD ON THIS SHOP!!!! I had one of the best experiences today, Brandon was amazing not only on his skill level but making me feel like I had just gained a friend... I left that shop with my spirit full! That’s the experience I want to have when getting a tattoo, I like to feel like I had a connection not just another business transaction. Shout out again brother! Thank you for the amazing half sleeve and thank you for taking time away from your family to hook it up like you did. This shop is something else! 5stars across the board!
