Kool spot. They accept walk ins for piercings. Not sure what the name of the guy that attended me was. But he was super nice and friendly. He kept checking on us sins there was a wait time.
I got my ears pierced and the artist did a great job they were very kind and helpful when it came to picking out a earring and made the whole process seamless. 10/10, would definitely recommend.
Im so glad we found this place. The girl who did my piercing was great. She was very friendly and professional. I will be going back for sure
Amazing shop! I love my tattoo from Viktor and customer service was great. Very professional and I will definitely recommend to a friend.
Viktor did such a good job on my small, butterfly tattoo. Nice, thin lines just like I wanted. 10/10
My boyfriend and I were visiting Hollywood and decided to get matching tattoos. We waited over an hour for the artist to get to the shop and then another 30 minutes for him to clean and set up (mind you the shop was open) the man that did our tattoos Viktor I believe his name was, dug so deep into our skin that he scarred both of us. We were also charged $160 for two uncolored quarter sized tattoos. Would NOT recommend going here.
I got a tattoo from Viktor and it turned out great! He also gave us a really great deal! 10/10!
Haven’t gotten any piercings but the time and effort they put into there art for your tattoo and details is awesome! 10/10
Some years ago I got my industrial piercing by THE BEST piercer named April. When I had to get it removed I was devastated but she was able to do the piercing in the same spot quickly & gently with no bleeding ! Proud to say for EVERY piercing I get I will recommend this place, with the BEST piercer named April :) she’s one of a kind!
WISH I COULD GIVE A 0 STAR. PLEASE LOOK AT PHOTOS I ATTACHED. I would NOT recommend going here, my boyfriend and I went to LA for a few days and decided to get tattoos, we went the first time and got tattooed by Eric, who was friendly and helped us out, did a decent job with the tattoos so we decided to go back the next day and get another small tattoo. BIGGEST MISTAKE EVER. Eric was busy so we got Viktor, AVOID HIM AT ALL COSTS. My boyfriends tattoo got infected 2 days later, my tattoo was missing spots and dug so deep into my skin that it is still red as i’m writing this and this is 2 weeks later. I had to take my boyfriend to the ER bc he was in so much pain. When we contacted the shop and told them, they tried to make it seem as if it was our fault and claimed we didn’t know how to take care of the tattoos. If that was the case, both tattoos would’ve gotten infected but only the one Viktor did got infected. My boyfriend and I have over 10 tattoos and we have NEVER gotten this terrible experience before nor have we dealt with tattoo infections. Viktor is also very unprofessional, he sent me over 15 text messages trying to make it seem as if it wasn’t his fault and blamed me and my boyfriend. He was so unapologetic. PLEASE DO NOT GO HERE. Now I have to pay even more money to get a cover up done because the tattoo that I got is so faded and dug into my skin, it looks horrific.
Me & my friend wanted matching tattoos & showed the “artist” what he wanted and he quoted $200 because the lines were “thick” . He pointed to another tattoo I have and said he could do it that thick. I got my tattoo done and it literally felt like he was carving into my skin. Ok it’s a tattoo it hurts whatever but it wasn’t thick at all. It literally is a thin line. Days later it started to scab and now idk what it is. I only been gone for a week and this is the worst souvenir I’ve ever gotten. I should have got a keychain.
JUST PLAIN HORRIBLE!!! DONT DO I T!!
When I walked into the shop, initially I was a little scared because this was my first time getting a tattoo. I came around 8pm, and Noel was the only tattoo artist at the shop. He was a very patient, and precise artist. He made me feel very comfortable and excited for my first tattoo! I became even more comfortable when he told me that Justin Bieber came in and had many tattoos done by him. My friend was also present, and getting a tattoo. He had a very steady and light hand. I barely felt any pain and it was a very enjoyable experience!
I wanted to fix the color of my tattoo and the tattoo is set really deep into my skin. Its 4 years since I did it now and I remember I never got a name on my tattooer, but hes in the pictures here at Google. He mustve been high or something. Rude costumer service, seems like its more important to chat with coworkers and friends, rather than helping costumers.
I love the way the tattoo looked the day of, but now it’s peeling & basically looks like it’s coming off & it’s very dull... most likely going to need to trace over it AGAIN & this spot is way to pricey, they’ll overcharge you if you just accept the price they say. & Who takes cash before doing a tattoo? Red flag 🚩
I wish I could leave less than one star. Not only is this place overpriced by almost double but the service was terrible. I came in for a conch ear piercing and after waiting almost 1 hour (it was busy, I understand), I was pierced by a female whose name I dont know because she never even introduced herself. She did not go over the piercing with me or the aftercare, nor did she let me pick my own jewelry. She simply made one mark and then another when I asked for it, then when doing the piercing she pierced the wrong mark that I did not want. When I said something about it she denied it even though you could clearly still see the mark that I did want was still non-pierced. She rushed me in and out like cattle and then after all of this she complained to her coworker about not getting a tip right in front of me. I work in the customer service industry and if theres one way to ensure not to get a tip, its to treat your customers like she did. Will never come back, do not recommend.
I just came from there to get my helix pierced. I had Brad pierce it and he was fantastic. All the staff was friendly. The store looked clean and professional and I felt like I could trust them.Brad listened to what I wanted and was very supportive and friendly and explained everything he was doing. The whole process was so quick and didnt hurt at all! I hear its supposed to hurt later on. So its only been 2 hours. But it doesnt hurt at all yet...I guess Ill wait and see.But I enjoyed my experience there and I definitely recommend it.Although, it was very expensive and they dont have a selection of cheaper jewelry except for one ugly thick ball earring...
I absolutely loved this place. 10/10 recommend.
Michael DeMatty is a kind and gentle being. Had two pieces done yesterday, very happy with them. His work overall is beautiful. Hes a master at cover-ups. And yes, he uses Vegan Ink.
When I made the decision to go ahead and do it, Marcelo made the experience as calming and easy as possible - walking me through every step as it happened and explaining what he was doing, working with my breathing to insure the actual piercing was as un-traumatic as possible, and thoroughly explaining aftercare.
I absolutely loved getting my work done here! The artist was great and amazing to work with! Very light handed and amazingly done i def. Suggest going here!
The tattoo shop is very nice, Ive been tattooed by Mariel, such an amazing girl, very professional and friendly at the same time. I recommend 95% that artist.
Got matching tattoos with my friend while on girls road trip in California and couldnt be happier!
All tattoo shops are cool I just wish it wasnt so high poor tattoo from this parlor
Excellent shop. They did a great job fixing my Medusa after the original shop that did the piercing put in way too short of a post.
Love that they are open until 3am. But very expensive. However, the artist was willing to work with price so that was cool. But it was 1am so that might not be the case during busy times. They also require half payment in cash which is annoying. ATM fee is like $5 in shop too.
Rafa showed up 2 hours after meeting time and totally ruined my wife’s tattoo.A 2 y/o kid could draw better..For your safety, run away from this unprofessionnal person who pretend to be pro and do not hesitate to charge you as hell for a drawing.
I went in to get a tattoo from Hawk the other night. Not only did I get exactly what I wanted but he executed it timely and hes very clean. I cant wait to sew him for my next tattoo.
I just went in last night. Had a couple people with me and we were looking to get small tattoos with little work involved. When we got there the guy was just eating his food at the desk with headphones on.. once we approached him he seemed very unhappy with the fact we were there and that we were bothering him the conversation went very awkwardly with him not showing any interest in the work we were offering for him. He continued to eat while we where there the whole time. Prices were high for these small jobs. Overall terrible experience. We left and went to studio City which was great. DO NOT GO HERE!!!!
I visited on an absolute whim while on holiday. Tattoo artists were patient and professional. Only downside was the price was quite high for a small tat but given the location of the studio, I wasnt too shocked.
I had just gotten to LA and couldnt sleep and so I was just casually walking down the street and saw this place. Went inside and showed the guy a picture off my phone and got my tattoo done. All the staff was amazing.
Carlos Delgado hooked us up with matching king and queen crowns. Only reason I would ever come back here for his art work on my body. Couldnt have asked for better everything.
Best piercer Clifton Santiago works here.
Went here to get a tattoo as a souvenir of my California vacation. I was told I had to pay $60 before I even told them what I wanted and tipped another $20 bones for what turned out to be my worst tattoos to date. I got two simple snake eyes dice on both my pinkies. After they healed, the lines were horrible and blotted. Its been 2 weeks and most of the ink has disappeared. Dont get me wrong, my tattoo artist was a cool cat, but I am heavily dissatisfied with the results and I finally have tattoos that I fully regret having and paid for. Thank God my personal tattoo artist fixed them for me for free cause he said he was embarrassed that another tattoo artist would let me walk out the door with them.
Were in LA on a scool trip and took som tattoes there. Great place. Took two tattoos there, and great prices. The first lady had a bit difficoulties with the language. But it was all fine. The other man was very nice. I had a lot of pain where he tattoed, and he was patient and asked all the time if we should have a break and if I was okay. Very nice people. They sell weed there and the stuff you use for it. So for me, that was not so nice. Some of the artists were high, but actually did a good job anyway haha. But I would be a little more carefull next time. I come from Norway and its not allowed to use weed or other drugs. So I was a little bit stressed because of that and that it smelled weed from our clothes and stuff when we got back to our hotel. Luckily there is a kind of washing-clothes-store not far away. But anyway, very nice artists and they are very good at their jobs.
Like the people and the place. Good job Julia!
Love this place! Cliff, DV, April and all the others are great! Amazing tattoo artists and piercers!
I got my tattoo from Sal more then 10 years. Still awesomeness look.
Love love love this place! Everybodys real down to earth and cool and the quality of work is amazing.
It was pretty good and smooth. I definitely recommend it.
I got my nose pierced here and the guy pierced it with a 16 gauge needle and put the nose ring stud which was a 20 gauge. They guy didnt know what he was doing.
Definitely the best place in LA to get a tattoo!
Great working tattoo shop skilled and quality artists
Staff are all extremely awesome!!
The tattoo artist was being really inappropriate to my bestfriend he kept touching her and etc. Didnt even finish the tattoo because my bestfriend was uncomfortable! NOT OKAY just because youre a tattoo artist doesnt give you the right to touch people in areas other than the spot of where the tattoo is!
Awesome noise rings.
I just walked in at 10pm in August 2009- told the artist Rey Mendoza my idea....I tried to explain him what was in my mind (im from switzerland and my english is not so well) we made a appointement for the next day - I came the other day and the drawing was just excellent 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😊😊 some colore changes only small changes. Then he started and after 3.5 hrs I went out HAPPY 😊👍🏻😊I still love it and would always come back😀👍🏻🌺🇨🇭Claudia
Great place to body art and bling bling to your body!
