"Luis has been my tattoo artist for 20 years. After I went to a couple other artists and had work done, I found Luis. He covered up one of the previous screw ups another artist did. I won’t go anywhere else!!! His work is worth every $$$ spent. His shop is always immaculate and sanitary. His talent has no end. You will be happy with any tattoo you have done!"
"Been a bit since Luis has tattooed me but everything I have has held up well and still looks beautiful. I can only assume he's gotten better and better in the intervening years. He first tattooed me in 2005 and has done quite a bit of work on my upper arms and shoulders since then. Highly recommended."
"I recently had the pleasure of getting a tattoo done by Luis Vargas at Howling Winds Tattoo Studio, and I couldn't be happier with the entire experience. As a woman, walking into a tattoo studio can sometimes be a bit intimidating, but Luis and the entire team at Howling Winds made me feel not only welcome but completely at ease from the moment I walked in. What truly stood out to me was Luis's genuine commitment to making sure I felt supported throughout the entire process. He patiently walked me through each step, explaining the details of the design, the tattooing process, and aftercare. This level of transparency and willingness to help made me feel confident and informed at every stage. The studio itself was clean, well-maintained, and adhered to all safety protocols, further enhancing the overall positive experience. The finished tattoo exceeded my expectations. Luis not only captured the essence of the design but added his own artistic flair, making the piece truly unique. I've received countless compliments on my tattoo, and I proudly share my positive experience at Howling Winds Tattoo Studio with everyone who asks. I wholeheartedly recommend Luis Vargas to anyone looking for a skilled and personable tattoo artist. Thank you, Luis, and the entire Howling Winds team, for making my tattoo journey such a positive and enjoyable one!"
"MY FAVORITE TATOO ARTIST!! Luis has become a friend and a mentor to me he did my first tattoo and he’s done 80% of the art on my body he knows how to get the job done. His line work and shading is top notch and he’s the only artist I know that can get a whole chest piece in one day, and all his work heals perfectly I will keep going to Luis until I’m finished with my body art. If you want a professional tattoo artist than go to this guy. ILL ADD SOME OF THE TATTOOS HES DONE he has done a lot more on my body"
"A Masterful Experience at Howling Winds Tattoo Studio with Louis Vargas From the moment I stepped into Howling Winds Tattoo Studio, I knew I was in for a unique experience. The shop, owned and operated by the incredibly talented Louis Vargas, is a testament to cleanliness and artistic flair. The studio's ambiance strikes a perfect balance between artistic decor and industrial chic, creating an inviting atmosphere for tattoo enthusiasts. Louis has managed to craft a space that's not only visually appealing but also immaculately clean, ensuring a safe and professional environment for his clients. Speaking of Louis Vargas, it's hard to put into words the level of professionalism and warmth he exudes. His demeanor is nothing short of delightful, making you feel at ease from the get-go. As someone who's had the pleasure of meeting Louis previously (he's tattooed my ex-girlfriend), I can attest to his consistent politeness and engaging personality. Now, let's talk about the main event - the tattoo. Louis's work is a blend of precision, creativity, and a deep understanding of his craft. The tattoo he designed for me was not only aesthetically pleasing but also a true representation of what I wanted. His attention to detail, coupled with his artistic vision, resulted in a piece that I am absolutely content with. One of the highlights of my experience was the interaction with Louis. His approach is not just about inking your skin; it's a holistic experience where he makes sure you're comfortable, informed, and completely satisfied with the process and the outcome. His ability to connect on a personal level, while maintaining a high level of professionalism, is a rare find in the industry. In conclusion, my experience at Howling Winds Tattoo Studio was nothing short of exceptional. If you're looking for a tattoo artist who can bring your vision to life in a clean, welcoming, and professional environment, Louis Vargas is your man. I left the studio not just with a fantastic tattoo but also with the satisfaction of being treated with respect and professionalism. Highly recommend!"
