Best tattoo shop I have visited. Great people there. Everyone was extremely nice and respectful. Also, best tattoo I've gotten. I gave Matt the idea I wanted and he rolled with it and what he produced greatly exceeded my expectations. He is an extremely talented tattoo artist. Thank you for an awesome tattoo Matt!!

Best damn tattoo and piercing shop in Arkansas!

Sean Funderburg

Can't say enough about the entire staff and Teryn especially for taking the time and the detailed work on my Star Wars arm band. Truly amazing artist. I will see you again sir as we sleeve this arm up!! Want quality, professional and clean work? You won't find a better shop. Black Cobra is truly one of a kind!

Constence Loftis

They was fast and nice!

Kyle Waller

I went there this past week to get my first frenum piercing. The shop was very clean. Kyle Arkansas did an excellent job with the piercing. He was informative and very professional. I recommend him for anyone looking for someone to do piercings in Central Arkansas. A+

Jeannie Chase

I really like them they rock

Snicker Foodle

I've had two tattoos done in their studio now. My very first tattoo was done with Paul and my second, and most recent, done with Jesse. Both are very kind and patient, easy to talk to, and funny. I've gotten to talk with Katie a couple times now, and have gotten to see a bit of how Matt works. The entire crew is filled with good people! I love the atmosphere and the camaraderie in the shop! My friends and I already have Paul booked for our next tattoos~

Nicki LaFoille

Katie is rad. My tattoo is beautiful. The shop was clean and inviting. I'll be back!!

Viola Simmons

I'll start by saying this was my first tattoo and I was insanely nervous. I chose Shawn to do this tattoo because his work is phenomenal and I knew he would do a fantastic job! The day of the appointment I showed up to the shop and everyone was very welcoming, the shop has a nice atmosphere. Shawn used my reference pictures to create a design even better than I imagined. He was incredibly patient with all of my nerves and listened when I had suggestions to the design. He explained what he was going to do in detail and answered all of my questions. Overall my experience was awesome and I would definitely recommend getting tattooed by Shawn!

Chloe Psy

Kyle is an excellent piercer. Everyone in the shop is super friendly and talented. There is an artist for whatever tattoo you are looking to get done.

Ariel Hunter

Black Cobra is a very professional, clean, relaxing, and very friendly environment. I have received two services from there and will book my 3rd soon. I highly recommend Black Cobra to anyone who is search for a great environment staffed by skilled artists.

Maia was awesome. Completed the tattoo exactly how I wanted it. Clean and professional.

BigManSDMF

One of the best tattoo places in the state of Arkansas and even the southern region of the United States. Matt and Kyle have hired some crazy hands and they do amazing work

Lulu Puffz

Love my piercer Kyle and would recommend to everyone

Pedro Raudry

Their staff is amazing! Went to Black Cobra from Nashville during some bad snow storms and they were very generous and caring. They went out of their way to check on us while we were on the way! Once we made it to the establishment everyone was very friendly. Not only is this shop filled with some amazing artists, but they are also just some genuinely awesome people. Katy McGowan did my and my fiancee's tattoo and we couldn't be happier with them. They are truly remarkable pieces of art. This shop is a great place to get tattooed at. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Chris Bailey

Matt is the greatest tattoo artist on the planet. A very clean, fun environment. Black cobra is the greatest tattoo and piercing shop in Arkansas. A very talented group of artist. Amazing tattoos.

James Short

Great people, great tattoos

Morgan Vansickle

The best tattoo shop there is hands down. Taylor did my tattoo and it is great!! Very helpful and nice. She worked with me from start to finish. First tattoo was a great experience. Thanks to Taylor.

Jesse Cheyney

Amazing artists! If you want a quality tattoo you'll be hard pressed to find another studio like Black Cobra!

Essience Thrower

I get piercings every year for my birthday and this year I turned 21!!! I decided to get 3 piercings 2 nose and one vch, when i tell you i was so scared. My fear got the best of me, and the piercings barely hurt! He made me feel comfortable, made sure he was specifically precise, took his time and i didn’t bleegd! Im so excited to show all on my friends and family. If you choose any place to get a piercing in Arkansas go to to Kyle!!!

Kaitlyn Petty

i love my tattoo so much!! Everyone there was so sweet and accommodating! My tattoo is everything i’ve ever wanted and i’m so thankful! If you’re looking to get a tattoo this is definitely the place to go katie was amazing !!!

Sarah Lynn

Very clean environment. Extremely friendly artists and front desk workers. There is comfortable seating with music playing. Tons of books to browse through. My artist is Teryn and he is extraordinary! The old adage of you get what you pay for is right. His tattoo that I had gotten makes all my others looks really sad. I will never go anywhere else. Stop by to check all those folks out and you wont be disappointed! Teryn is my artist for life now!!!!

Glen Shaw

Took my son-in-law there to get his first tat. Staff was friendly, the establishment was clean and well lit. Wall decorations were wild and cool. Compared to several tat shops I've been in, this one is definitely upper crust.

lexicon145 green

They were really great with being patient with my eyebrow piercing and they communicated really well the whole time!

Steve Smith

Great place. Knowledgeable and friendly staff.

Dustin Allen

Maya is awesome! She did an excellent job on my piece.

Doug Heminger

Best tattoo shop in Arkansas. Friendly staff. Clean environment. Fair prices.

Jeannie Langley

Amazing artist

Roqulle Beck

Katie did a pair of neo traditional animals on my feet, and she killed it! She was very quick and efficient on top of being an amazing artist, which I super appreciated since it's such a painful area.

Joy Allen

Wow I Love my Tattoo! Went there with friends and got one too. Katie is awesome a true artist for sure. She did a free hand design for me it's beautiful. If you are wanting to get some ink go and see her she is great!!

Brenda Jones

It was my first time there. I was greeted by someone very friendly. When I ask about the price of a small simple tattoo he said let me get one of our tattoo artist. To be honest i was expecting someone rude or someone who would not be too interested in doing a small simple tattoo! But i was completely wrong because the young woman was extremely friendly and she was willing to do the tattoo that I asked about. She gave a few suggestions about the tattoo I wanted. I went with her suggestions and I am very pleased with the work she did! Very awesome!!!

Austin Bousquet

Awesome people that do amazing work. If you want high quality tattoo work, look no further than this shop. You might pay a little more, but good work ain't cheap and cheap work ain't good. Many of the artists book or weeks in advance, so be prepared to be patient. It'll be with the wait... I promise!

Matt O'Baugh

As the owner of Black Cobra, I would like to thank you all for sharing your experiences with us. I am super appreciative of the kind words and honored to have such amazing clientele. I am fortunate to have some of the most talented artists and body piercer in central Arkansas at Black Cobra. Our goal is to provide high quality body art and professional body piercings in a sterile, comfortable, and relaxing atmosphere. Come check us out, we would love to take care of you!

Ashton

Black Cobra is one of the best tattoo shops I have ever been too. They have award winning artists and the entire staff is very friendly and helpful. Their prices are very reasonable for the quality of work you are receiving and their attention to detail is unmatched. I worked with Teryn today, he took the time to discuss artwork, any concerns that I had, and helped me design my tattoo. He was very courteous, professional, and drew my (now favorite) tattoo which turned out better than I could have imagined. Overall, they are spectacular. If there was a higher rating I would have given them that one.

Patrick Hoover

Wonderful quality! No one better!

Big t W

Yo I call them shop tryin to get a hold of them and nobody ever answers. Want a tattoo by Jesse Perez does that sick ass script. Katie McGowan I talked to her but she’s got an attitude thinks she’s cooler than everyone cause she on tv lol. Thanks but no thanks I guess I’ll go to 7th street like everyone else does for the OGs. Bye Felicia!

Jennifer Davis

The friendliest tattoo shop I've ever been in. Every single staff member is extremely talented. They don't have flash art on the walls so if you're just wanting something slapped on your body then this is not the place. Every tattoo is unique to you. They truely are brilliant.

Justin Miller

Everyone at Black Cobra was incredibly friendly. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Matt. He took my idea and knocked it out of the park. It was pretty amazing to see him free-hand draw my eagle image onto my leg then go to work on it. A true artist! I highly recommend him and the rest of Black Cobra for your tattoo and piercing needs.

FRSH PRNC

Clean shop with some great artist. They fit me right in on vacation & I left with a nice cover up & new tattoo I'm still pleased with! Would definitely get tattooed there again!

Christopher Adam Brazie

I wrote the review to the wrong shop. I do apologize.

Captain Chambers

Quality and beauty. Awesome staff and beautiful artistry at very reasonable pricing.

Jessica Hayden

Got a tattoo By Paul Lee today. Amazing work and cool guy! Will defiantly be getting my future work by him! The whole shop was a clean environment and friendly!

Aya Dewar

I could not have asked for a better experience for my first tattoo. The artist worked with me, was very patient and helpful I'm the design. It turned out beautiful and was well worth the cost which I also felt was reasonable for the quality.

Evelyn Marie White

Professional staff. I don't believe that many African American people visit them... However, I highly recommend them. Pleased with the tattoos I've gotten there.

Adam Hobert

I will say the Black Cobra Tattoo Studio is the only place I will get pierced my wife an daughter and I all got piercings today an it was the best experience we had Kyle Arkansas is awesome at piercing and he gets all your input an knows what he is doing thank you again Kyle Arkansas

A Ferguson

Had my rook pierced by Kyle. I was very impressed with the whole experience. I wish I had come to him for all my other piercings, this was definitely the best I've had done. I highly recommend!

jim jones

I got my first tattoo here, it was a really great experience, the artists really seem to enjoy their work. Great atmosphere, if I could give more stars I would.

robert holt

Greatest tattoo studio I know in Arkansas. I have had most my work done there and loved it all. I would recommend them to anyone looking to get a tattoo or to at least stop in and talk to them before deciding where to go.

marcus thompson

Very talented artists and a clean & comfortable atmosphere. Best in Little Rock.

Jeremy Gabbard

Piercer here is great, helped me find some jewelry they didn't have in stock.

Morgan Page

Katie tattooed me about a month ago and it was such a great experience. The shop is immaculate and everyone in the shop was super kind and inviting My tattoo is of my dog with lots of bright, colorful flowers. It is even more perfect than I imagined in my head. Katie was so focused on every detail and it shows! I don't have a great picture of the tattoo yet, but I couldn't wait any longer to give a review! (I'll post it later) I drove 4 hours to get to the shop and I plan on booking another tattoo with Katie in the future. It was totally worth the trip!

drew lloyd

Matt has tattooed me 2x and I could not be happier with my tats. Matt is the best artist in the state and he is currently covering up some tats I got somewhere else. I will never go to anyone but matt but everyone at black cobra does great work and makes you feel comfortable. I won’t go anywhere else.

Dash-n-Cars

Love this place. Everyone is very respectful, very very clean. Crazy good work done and priced right.

Wendy Pascoe

Awesome quality and detail.

Mary Conway

Just got a navel piercing done there. Kyle is a first-rate piercer, who had me relaxed (I was terrified) in seconds. I never felt a thing amd he did an awesome job! I'd never go anywhere else now, and I will recommend them to anyone!

Ashley Sanchez

Got a tattoo from Matt a few months back & he did an amazing job! It’s a beautiful tattoo & I get compliments on it all the time. He was very professional & is such a talented artist. Love my tattoo!

Raymond Milam

Professional, clean, receptive. The folks who work at Black Cobra Tattoo are awesome. I highly recommend everyone check them out.

Trenton Mellinger

Awesome place!

Tamie Curtsinger

Blake did a tattoo for me and it's awesome! !

Constance Grady

I would recommend this shop to anyone. Jesse did tattoos for my sister & I. He is absolutely amazing.

Autumn Sheppherd

I’ve had tattoos by Blake and Katie back in 2014, and they were so amazing. They both made sure I got what I wanted and did stellar work, that still looks so amazing today. Today I had the pleasure to get pierced by Kyle Arkansas and he is the sweetest most professional person! Plus he’s definitely a cutie

Nicky Yates

Great atmosphere and very clean shop. Got some writing on my arm by Shawn. Blended well with my other tattooes and looks amazing. Definitely going back for more work.

Maniah

This shop has amazing artists, is super clean, super friendly, and super knowledgeable. They go out of their way to make sure their work will last and heal well. There is also a good variety of style available here in the shop. Yes, Matt and Katie are amazing, but check out the Instagram pages for the other artists here also. They have a lot to offer! And if you want to get pierced, Kyle is the most professional guy! He is super patient with all the questions I had after my piercings, and he's been great at checking to make sure everything is healing as it should whenever I get uneasy.

Andrew Palmer

Paul lee was awesome!!! He got my ladies first tattoo done and he was more than attentive to her pain levels, Loved the environment in the place definitely loved the music!! ( if your up for different genres)

Paige Havner

Got a tattoo from Matt the other day and he did such a fantastic job!! I’m so in love with my new tattoo definitely recommend him for anything!! He is so talented and such a nice guy!

Latayne Rose

My girlfriend and I stopped by the shop a few weeks ago and got piercings from Kyle. we were greeted at the counter by a smiling gal who was super sweet and helped us the minute we walked in. The overall feel of the shop was comforting, and we didn’t have to wait forever for our appointments! Definitely going there more often.

Sarom Webb

Took my 16yr old to get her nose pierced. The place was very nice and professional. Kyle answered all the questions we had and was nice to help me out since I had little kids in the car. It was quick and professional. Both my daughter & I were comfortable and happy with the results. She was so stoked about it and excited how it looked. Thank you for making it an easy experience!

Ashley Johnson

Matt is not only a amazing tattoo artist but a joyful and pleasurable person to be around! The whole shop is comfortable and welcoming. And Kyle is by far the best piercer I have ever met.

ericio22

Went and saw Teryn and my experience was incredible. I highly recommend!

Cole Runyan

Ok for the location

Taneka Nelson

Got 2 of my piercings here and everyone is super nice.

Benjamin Martin

I can't stress enough how professional and talented each member of the staff is. They make you feel like family each time you walk in.

Travis Barton

I have had many tattoos done here the staff is professional.

Terica Davis

People are real mice and explain what needs to be done

Alejandro Ruvalcaba

Black cobra is definitely one of the best shops in the country. Very clean and neat shop with amazing artist. Matt did an excellent portrait of my mother the ink looks amazing.

ashley harris

I got a tattoo from Matt last last and it is absolutely amazing. I can't stop lookng at it! This is my 2nd time here and i will def. be back. The whole tattoo parlour is a lot of fun. everyone is really nice and will joke with you and their work is beautiful. If you want a tattoo, black cobra is a must. my cousin got her nose pierced and it's really cute. the piercer was also alot of fun and made us feel comfortable. A+ all around. thanks guys

Dylan Collier

I have been tattooed by Katie, and pierced by Kyle. Both of those experiences have been the best in both categories. I love the vibe in this shop, and all of the artists are so talented! I am very much looking forward to having more art from all of the artists there.

Lauren Viehmeyer

Very rude. Needed to buy body jewelry which they have available on display, but because i brought my infant child with me they immediatley declined services. Will never go in again.

John Patterson

I've been tattooed by Blake and he did so good on it. And it was last minute, since I wasnt sure if it was gonna conflict with a meeting. He did awesome and he took the time to draw up wxacy what I wanted. He drew for two hours , coming out periodically to ask me if I liked it so far. I don't put time constraints on quality and no one should . He did very good. I'll definitely be back as soon as i can get some money saved up.again.

Abbey Carlson

everyone is very friendly and the work is spectacular. i suggest calling and booking appointments instead of just walking in because the artists get filled up fast, especially on fridays and saturdays unless it's a small and quick piece. everything is clean and high quality!

Krystal Todd

The lady was so rude to me at the front desk. I'm like the sweetest person ever lol. I was confused.

Alyssa Slusser

I have been meaning to make a post about this for months now. I have been questioning myself if I really want to put this person on blast for the poor quality tattoo that is now on my body for the expensive and rediculous price I paid. Be carefully of who you select here. I did not get what I paid for.

Joshua Smith

Great artist here. My wife gets stopped all the time to be asked about where she has her work done.

Michael Carter

Blake Cranford is the guy to see if your wanting a tattoo

Bekah Forrest

A grand, professional tattoo & piercing studio!! I don't get tattoos, but if I did, I would most certainly come here- with all the talented artists they have! I get piercings, & Kyle is the only guy I trust! He is very educated in the piercing world, & extremely precise. I've been going to him for almost 10 years, the jewelry & piercing needles he uses are best of the best!! Very highly recommended, especially if you care about how your modification is gonna look- after they are done!

Weldon Hickey

What’s there to say. They have the best tattooist in the state and I couldn’t be any happier with my tattoo. My tattoo was a cover up tattoo and there is no sign of my old bad tattoo. The staff was great. There was a time or two that Blake had to stop because they had me laughing. In my opinion, I won’t ever go to any other tattoo shop besides black cobra tattoo.

Tiffany Nixon

Very clean and professional! My artist was Shawn Garrison... Shawn is great! He did a cover up on my back and you can't even tell it's a cover up! All the artists have great customer service, and they work so well with one another! I will definitely be back!

Jessi Martinez

My older sister has gotten two tats from there and they are both amazing works of art! Can't wait to get mine!!

Deborah Ashmore

Clean shop knowledgeable artists and Kyle is amazing and ready to answer your piercing questions, concerns and soothe fears you may have.

Todd Hoover

Awesome shop, awesome artists!

delia hays

I've gotten several tattoos from matt and I am in love with them all. If you live in Arkansas and want a tattoo, you need to go to black cobra. I always get a ton of compliments on all of my tatts when I go out. People cannot believe how good and bright all of my tatts are, and i just keep sending them yalls way! thanks for all the amazing ink!

Janda

Black Cobra is an awesome shop. Katie did my tattoo and she was amazing! Love the design she made for me. Thank you Katie!!
