Taboo Tattoo is the oldest tattoo shop in Dallas, Texas, proudly serving the Deep Ellum community since 1994. Founded by Sharon and Jimmy Flatte, the studio blends old-school values with modern safety standards, using sterilized equipment and single-use needles to maintain a clean, hygienic environment. Today the shop's legacy continues under Cody Biggs, a second-generation artist mentored by respected names in the industry. The team offers custom tattoos and body piercings, with a roster of fully licensed artists skilled across a range of styles, from custom artwork to timeless classic designs.
The studio treats every client like family, offering a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere for both custom pieces and spontaneous ink. Walk-ins are welcome seven days a week, and the shop keeps late hours on weekends to accommodate its Deep Ellum crowd. Its artist lineup includes tattooers and piercers with backgrounds spanning apprenticeship to award-winning experience, each dedicated to creating meaningful, lasting art. With three decades of history in the same neighborhood, the studio continues to build on a legacy of artistic excellence and genuine community spirit in Dallas.
