    Dee doesn't know how to piece straight

    Worst experience , had to get pierced twice because the first time it was crooked , so she said she wouldn't charge to repierce right away, , still crooked and way too low, don't let Dee pierce you, still charged us for "materials".

    Great local shop. Definitely worth the drive if you're not from Hesperia. These dudes do insane work and they're all super friendly. I've gotten 3 jobs done by Pat and each one is flawless

    Uneven piercings

    do not get pierced by dee she does not know how to pierce straight and will not help or refund if piercing is incorrect or uneven. very unprofessional! look at her instagram post and pay attention to piercing placement and material being used! she does not have a steady hand or good measurement and will not show you the markings for approval before piercing!

    Lookin' in the front door.

    Scott Schawb, co-owner of Addictive Nature Tattoo, is the only artist my wife will use! He does great work. Super attentive to detail, truly an artist. His shop is clean and looks badass! Easy to find right on Main in Hesperia between 7th and 5th on the South side of Main. The other awesome in-house artists are: Gary "Menace" Shephard - co-owner p. 760.680.3337 e. gshephard77@yahoo.com w. menacingmethods.com Robb Bailey p. 760.912.0549 Shop Address: 16085 Main St. Hesperia, CA 92345

    Been getting tattooed here for years. You can't go wrong getting work done by Scott, or Gary . If you want quality work this is the place to get it.

    Getting a tattoo is not a decision one should make on a whim. Thought should be put into it. The same goes for choosing the right artist. Not all tattoo artists are created equal. Scott at Addictive Nature is one of those artists you need to have in your life! He is super talented and genuinely a good guy! I cannot recommend him enough. If you are like me and don't live in the desert...trust me, the drive is worth it. Get on this guys books for your next tattoo.

    A co-worker that I hadn't seen in months saw me in the office, and I was able to see her amazing…read moreartwork. Not many tattoo artists will tattoo the face, but my co-worker is an artist, a teacher, and has significance to what she has always wanted. She happily greeted me and showed me her proud piece, which looked beautiful on her. She thanked me because I referred her to Black Anchor Collective. She asked me who did my artwork (and I made it clear about how picky I am about the art and the artists I choose), and she decided to go to Black Anchor Collective. I don't know the name of her artist, but she was proud and confident in displaying her facial art piece, and it did look great. The line work was fantastic. My artist was Matt Hurtado. He enjoys special interest pieces like MARVEL and DC comics, Pokémon, specific Japanese anime, LEGO, Star Wars, and so much more. For me, though, I requested flowers and a Scorpio, and he created my piece. Check the artists' pages and artwork before scheduling your appointment. You'd see what styles you like, and I liked Matt's style. I saw some flowers, and I knew he could do what I envisioned. The building is clean with artwork everywhere. Much of it reflects the owner's, Nikko Hurtado, style and things. But each artist has their own room that best reflects their own style and things. Booking an appointment at Black Anchor Collective requires time, patience, and email savviness. If you don't know how to read or respond to emails, you may need to go somewhere else. This place is professional, and many of the artists attend conferences or have long sessions. If they can respond to your email while on the road, perfect, and it's always helpful to know what you want. I am glad I got my piece from Black Anchor Collective, and I did patiently wait for about a month for my spot. Every artist is different, so follow their social media and contact them accordingly.

    My review is on the owner Mario, some might say my review is more personal, and in most cases it…read morewould be, but getting a tattoo is a very personal experience between you and the artist, how the artist conducts their personal affairs should figure in on how you choose your artist...... Mario and his wife have a house on my street, it's supposed to be owner occupied but is not, instead it's occupied by Mario's wife's(future ex wife, I'm not technically sure) Boyfriend who in fact lives there rent free, no water or trash service, he steals from the neighbors & Mario(in Mario's case he stole & spent $80,000 from Mario's biz account. In fact the Bf is one of those rare kind of scandalous people, that no matter what kind of deal you worked out with him, the second you turn around, he gotta grab a little more that was agreed on behind your back, everytime, he just can't help him self. Not to long ago he made me a deal, to where I was supposed to get like 1K worth of different items just to loan him this brand new computer I got, not only did I get my computer back gutted, I never got n e of the other stuff he promised me either, then I find out the 1k of stuff he promised belonged to Mario, so I did the right thing and told Mario what dude was up to, Mario have my e his word dude was being evicted and would be out of the house by the middle of Feb 2025. Why would Mario let the dude who broke he and his wife up, stole 80k from his biz account and still tries to steal from Mario today continue to live in his house, rent free, drive his car for the same price ???? Well I'm gonna tell you, first off the biznez accounts belong to the biznez owners who are Mario and his wife, turns out Mario and his wife make a lot of money, cuz they came up with some kinda sanitary glue that hold the tattoo pattern in place for the artist. Now all tattoo artist everywhere, not just in the US are required to use this glue that Mario and his wife hold the patten on, everytime a tattoo is done in a shop, they get royalties from their glue. Wow that's gotta be a lot of money ? I mentioned Mario his wife are getting divorced ? Well Mario it seems thinks all the biznez cash should stay his in the divorce, and the weasel played right into that for him, I guess Mario has an implied deal with his wife, if he don't press charges on the Wiesel for the theft of the 80k then she don't hire a divorce lawyer to protect her share of everything, of course he got to hire his own lawyer to ensure only she gets screwed in the end. Now I'm not passing judgement on n e body, even if it does seem Mario a little one sided there, I'm just throwing info out there for you guys to consider before picking your next tattoo artist. This whole story is in the words told me by the Bf, true or not, I don't know but he gotta let him keep living in that house for free for some reason Have a great day and god bless you all

    Richard has done all my piercings and I absolute love him and his work ethic he is so kind and…read morefunny, so I took my twins to get their nose pierced for their 17th birthday. They were very nervous and scared Richard took his time explained everything and patiently waited for them to be ready before he started. He explained every step and gave them tips on how to relax. He gave detailed instruction on maintenance and cleanliness also took the time to explain it again before we left making sure they understood the importance of it. I'm very confused how this place has bad reviews. First off Richard is amazing he even wiped my girls tears from her eyes (very common with nose piercings) he cracked jokes with them and even gave them a extra nose ring to swap out when it's time. Blaming someone for your negligence is so odd to me! Before you get any service you do your research even with the great details he gives everyone is different specially if you have thick skin you will heal different and take a longer time. This is the only place I go to and will continue to go too! PROS: Very clean Professional Caring Great play list Courteous Patient Large selection Quick Great at what he do CONS: You never want to leave lol! He really makes you feel like your one of his homies
