It has come to our attention that someone is impersonating that they work at our shop and trying to collect deposits. As of currently it’s just Darvy, Justin and Brandon. We will never reach out to you asking if you want a tattoo. We will also not reach out from a Facebook profile named “tattoo and piercing shop” if you are about to put down a deposit and are feeling unsure, you can text Darvy at (610)737-1403 and I will double check that it is one of our artist.

If you have put down a deposit with someone claiming to work for the shop and it’s not one of us. I am sorry to say but you’ve been had and none of the artist here will honor a deposit that was sent to anyone but us.

Big update, I am going to be transitioning to a 10:30am-5pm shift instead of my normal 12pm-8pm. My wife just got a job over at Frog town Tavern, which if you haven’t tried already, you are missing out. But yeah she’s going to be working nights and for our kids to have a solid routine, I will be heading home around 5pm. You also may see my kids playing watching tele, playing video games or doing their homework in the back from time to time. Slate Belt Tattoo is a family friendly shop, we are all dads just trying to make a living and balance the responsibilities of family life.

I am going to be appointment only for the most part but will post when/if I have walk in availability. If you ever want to skip the wait my apprentice Brandon Dutter can tattoo any of my designs for a discounted rate! We also have Justin Michael Arellano taking appointments and walk ins as well! These are two people I trust with your tattoos wants and needs!

With all that said, my missus Erin Ryan has been working a corporate job for the past 8 years and it took a toll, waking up at 3:30am everyday is a nightmare. For a long time it was what our family needed and it helped us have a solid and stable basis while I built up my clientele. I am glad she is taking a leap and doing something that brings her joy!

I am now going to be taking appointments at 10:30am/11am and either 12:30/1pm or doing all days from 10:30-4:30. You can book with me by either walking into the shop, or texting me at (610)737-1403. Thank you guys for all of the support! It truly means the world to my family and me!
