Great Wave Tattoo has been a fixture of Austin, Texas since 2009, specializing in bold traditional American tattoos and detailed Japanese tattoo work. Founder Jason Brooks brings over 30 years of experience, blending American and Japanese styles into a signature approach recognized worldwide. What began as his solo studio has grown into a shop featuring some of Austin's most talented artists, including James Yocum, David Parker, and Bart Bingham, among others, offering a wide range of styles from large custom pieces to smaller, meaningful designs.
The crew is dedicated to providing a professional, welcoming experience whether clients book a consultation or stop by for a walk-in. Walk-ins are welcomed every day of the week from 12 PM to 8 PM, with artists usually able to accommodate small or simple tattoos the same day. Walk-ins are handled first-come, first-served, though customers can call ahead or reach out on Instagram to check availability before heading over. With a strong reputation built over more than a decade, this Austin studio remains a trusted destination for both traditional American and Japanese tattoo work.
