Walk-ins are welcome at both our East 6th Street (2309 E 6th St) and South 1st Street (1905 S 1st St, Suite C) locations. Our artists are available for walk-in tattoos daily, with availability varying by artist and day.
For walk-in tattoos, we recommend arriving early in the day to ensure availability. Smaller pieces — flash designs, simple custom work, lettering, and small black and grey pieces — are ideal for walk-ins. Larger custom pieces may require a brief consultation and a scheduled appointment.
Even as a walk-in, you're getting the full Blindside experience: a clean, professional studio, premium inks and equipment, and an artist who takes pride in their work. We don't rush walk-ins — every piece gets the same attention to detail.
Open Monday through Sunday. Hours vary by location — check our Locations page for current hours. Walk-ins welcome. Hablamos español. Call (512) 442-8777 to check same-day availability.
