Why Being in the Heart of Dallas—and Deep Ellum—Matters
When choosing a tattoo studio, the work should always speak for itself—but location matters, too. Our central location offers more than just convenience. We’re based in the heart of the country and, more importantly, in one of Dallas’s most culturally rich neighborhoods: Deep Ellum.
Here's why our location makes all the difference—for clients near and far.
A Centrally Located Tattoo Studio in the U.S.
Dallas sits almost perfectly in the center of the country, making it an accessible destination for clients from all across the U.S. Whether you're flying in from either coast or driving up from Austin, Houston, or Oklahoma City, getting here is straightforward and fast.
That accessibility matters—especially for clients who are investing in large-scale tattoo work that requires multiple sessions. Being centrally located helps you commit to the process without the burden of excessive travel.
At Luxury Tattooing, we proudly welcome both local Dallas clients and collectors from around the country who are seeking custom, high-quality work with meaning and precision.
Deep Ellum: A Neighborhood Built on Art and Culture
Our studio is based in Deep Ellum, one of the most historic and culturally rich neighborhoods in Texas. Originally established in the late 1800s, Deep Ellum was one of the first commercial districts in Dallas for African-American and European immigrants. By the 1920s and '30s, it had become a hotbed for jazz and blues, hosting legends like Blind Lemon Jefferson and Bessie Smith.
Over the decades, Deep Ellum evolved—but it never lost its soul. Today, it remains a vibrant hub for:
Street art and murals
Independent musicians and live music venues
Boutique shops and local businesses
Creative professionals, artists, and tattooers
When you walk the streets of Deep Ellum, you feel it—it’s a place that celebrates expression, originality, and individuality. That’s exactly the kind of environment we believe a tattoo studio should be a part of.
An Inspiring Place for Inspired Tattoo Work
Tattooing is an art form, and like any art, it thrives in the right environment. Being located in Deep Ellum means we’re surrounded by a community of creatives who value tradition, storytelling, and craft.
Whether you're stepping out of the studio to grab a coffee or exploring the murals between appointments, Deep Ellum inspires every part of the tattoo experience. That energy finds its way into our work—especially in the Japanese-style tattoos we specialize in, which are deeply rooted in storytelling and symbolism.
Easy Access with Big City Resources
Operating out of Dallas means we offer all the perks of a major city:
Two major airports (DFW & Love Field) for out-of-town clients
A broad selection of hotels, restaurants, and entertainment
A thriving tattoo community with respect for craft and culture
For clients planning multiple-day tattoo sessions, this makes your experience smoother and more comfortable. You can stay nearby, relax between appointments, and enjoy the city while you’re here.
