16 San Antonio tattoo shops offering $13 tattoos on Friday the 13th

SAN ANTONIO – It’s common practice for some tattoo shops to offer $13 tattoos in celebration of Friday the 13th and many San Antonio tattoo parlors are participating with discounted tattoo specials.

Generally, tattoo shops will have a list of flash tattoos to choose from for the $13 special, however, rules vary from parlor to parlor.

Some tattoo shops extend the Friday the 13th special through the weekend and some shops start several days early.

Call your local tattoo parlor to see if they are participating in any $13 tattoo events.

Plan ahead, as all the shops listed expect to have long lines and operate on a first-come, first-served basis.

Celebrity Ink SA and Ink Masters Tattoo Studio reached out to KSAT and will also be running a special for Friday the 13th.

Most tattoo parlors require a $7 tip or setup fee, so expect to pay more than $13.
