Small to medium tattoos are perfect for walk-ins. Think script, small symbols, fine line pieces, or a design from our flash wall. If you're feeling adventurous, try our "Get What You Get" gumball machine for a surprise flash tattoo. Bigger custom work like sleeves, back pieces, and cover-ups usually needs a free consultation first so your artist can plan it right.

What to bring

Bring a valid photo ID. If you have a design idea, bring reference photos on your phone. Wear clothing that gives easy access to the placement you want, and eat something before you come in. Tattoos go much smoother on a full stomach.

How pricing works

Our shop minimum is $80, which covers most small tattoos. Larger pieces are priced by the hour, starting at $150. Your artist will give you a price before they start, so there are no surprises.

How long will I wait?

Wait times depend on how busy our artists are that day. Calling ahead at 281-251-0764 is the best way to check availability. Already know what you want? Booking online at royalavetattoo.com saves you the wait.

Want a female artist or piercer?

We have female tattoo artists and female piercers on staff. Just let us know when you walk in, and we'll do our best to match you with whoever you're most comfortable with.

Aftercare starts the same day

Before you leave, your artist will walk you through aftercare. Keep it clean, follow the instructions, and reach out if you have questions while it heals.

Walk-in piercings too

Piercings are walk-in friendly as well. All piercing prices include jewelry, and every piercing is done in a private room.

Royal Ave Tattoo is a family-owned tattoo and piercing shop at 5010 Louetta Rd, Suite E, Spring, TX 77379, right off Louetta and Kuykendahl, serving Spring, Klein, and north Houston since 2013.
