HOUSTON, TX
Journey Tattoo was established in August 2015 by my big brothers Quoc Duong and Dominic Nguyen. We are one of the very first Vietnamese tattoo studios in the Houston area. Our team has continued to grow, and now we have 12 artists working together like a big family. Each artist has their own style that is easy to recognize in their work.
We all have a similar beginning, which is why we understand each other well. We have the same passion and love for tattoo body art and always try to learn and improve our work day by day. As an immigrant, I am so thankful for this country that helps all of us to do our dream and become successful.
Our team has won many tattoo art conventions in texas, and hopefully, we will go to more in other states. As of today, so many tattoo shops have opened, showing that the tattoo industry has been growing and will continue to grow. Therefore, we always try to work and improve ourselves.
Journey tattoo could not have made it this far without the love and support of our clients. Currently, we have two locations, one on Bellaire Blvd ( 14403 Bellaire Blvd Houston, TX 77083 ) and the other one on Katy ( 1718 Fry rd #300 Houston, TX 77084 ). Please come and check us out; we always try to do our best because we understand it will be with you forever. ✕

My hometown and the traditions there have always been a source of inspiration for my work, and I wanted to combine them with the style of traditional American tattoos ⸺ What advice would you give to someone about getting his or her first tattoo? (A tattoo virgin)First of all, you have to know what style of tattoo you want so you won’t regret it later and cover it up with another tattoo ⸺ What would you say is your favorite part of the job? I like painting the most, but tattooing is my life ⸺ What was it that initially sparked your interest in tattooing? When I was 20 years old, I was doing other things outside and didn’t go to school anymore, I didn’t want to waste my youth, so I started to try tattooing ⸺ Who are your favorite artists?
