I love this shop and have been coming here for almost a year, I have ideas and Manolo draws them up for me. Geronimo, Sol and Nick are friendly and they are all so artistically talented. They are flexible and fair with pricing. Visit them on a flash special and you'll be hooked!

I recently visited the shop to see Jeronimo and I have to say it was the best experience I've ever had getting tattooed (which says a lot being that I have a leg sleeve and have been getting work done consistently for the past 20 years). Not only was the shop super clean (the bathroom even smelled nice!) but all the artists were super friendly & chill. I was really impressed at how quickly he was able to take my reference images & transfer them to a tablet, alter them to my liking and then gave me several size options to choose from. The process was super quick so I wasn't just sitting around wasting my day like I always had in the past at other shops. Overall, great set of dudes, great conversation and the work came out immaculate. I promise you won't regret coming to any of the artists here, but Jeronimo especially can do just about any little thing your heart desires he's so talented! I felt like I was actually wasting his time with the simplicity of what I wanted, but it came out perfect.

I came to Alpha 7 back in 2022 to get my leg piece that was done by Jeronimo. Jeronimo's work is absolutely insane and the service at the shop itself is beyond great. The Jason knife, jack o lantern, and live or die saw tattoo were done by Solomon and Hannibal lecter's mask was done by Manolo. All three of them are extremely talented and do amazing work. I highly recommend coming to this shop as they can laugh/joke around with you yet still get their work done as best and neatly as possible. All the artists are super cool and the shop is clean. Can't forget to mention that they're reasonable with pricing and will work with you with what you want to get done if you're not too sure.

This shop made me feel so comfortable after being to shops where they rip you off for cheap work. The owner and staff really treat you well no matter if you're a walk in or appointment. I've had multiple tattoos done by this team because I trust the work they put into a permanent part of your life. 10/10 for Alpha 7 Ink tattoo shop!

Best tattoo ever

Steve and his team are incredible. I have been going to Steve for pieces for 10+ years. I recommend…read morehis shop to all of my friends, family, and strangers that ask me about my tattoos. Steve is a true professional, trustworthy, and very creative! His shop and all of the people that work for him truly make you feel welcomed. You will not be disappointed!

So when I showed up, the artist wasn't even there and I sat there just waiting until another employee at the shop called Steve. He verified he wrote down the wrong time, so I asked for my $60 deposit back (which I had to drive all the way there to give them 8 days before the appointment since they only accept Zelle and Apple Pay) the employee called Steve again to see about a discount to keep my appointment, and Steve offered me $20 off, which was insulting. The other employee insisted the artist was on their way, but having an artist rush over from home to do permanent ink on your body is never a good idea. They should've been there waiting and ready to go before I arrived. I took my $60 back and left. And I won't be back. The artists may be good but because of the guy who runs the place, I'll never know.

Brought my friend here (my absolute go-to piercing place ) since we both wanted new piercings…read more Today, I got my rook and tragus, and she got her rook and snug. One thing I always appreciate about here is how friendly, caring, and informative everyone is. Whether I have questions about anatomy or aftercare, they always explain everything clearly and never make me feel rushed or confused. And honestly, the piercing process is always way faster and smoother than I expect. I'll mentally prepare for it to hurt and then suddenly they're like "all done!" and I'm sitting there like "oh, that wasn't bad at all" haha. That's also why all my cartilage piercings (3 helix's, 2 tragus's, conch, daith, and rook) have been done here!

1/30/26 - Called about information for a walk in to get my septum and a pair of lobe piercings…read moredone. They were very informative about hours and pricing. Most importantly they were able to do the piercings I wanted the same day unlike the other shops I called. When I arrived, the store was empty, very clean and quaint. Just the two workers opening the store for the day. I filled out the consent form and about 10 minutes later I was called to the back by Melissa who measured my existing piercings to mark them on my other ear. Very happy with her attention to detail. Everything seemed to be sanitized properly as well, at least to my untrained eyes. She went ahead with the lobe piercings after letting me see the spots she marked using a handheld mirror and they turned out great. I had the same experience with the septum as well. Overall, I am very satisfied with my experience here at Mint Condition and Melissa's work, and will always consider this place first when I'm ready to get my next piercings!

Got a tattoo with Jadyn last week and he was awesome. He designed a really lovely piece from some…read morewords in a letter my mom wrote me before she died - he worked with me to design it in a way that was meaningful to me and was also incorporating elements I like. The studio is easy to find, very clean, and comfortable. Jadyn is very conscientious and accommodating. I also really liked that he was fairly perfectionistic in stencil placement and in checking how the design was looking - really important bc he uses a lot of straight lines in his work! I absolutely recommend him, and I hope he gets lots of clients. Also, a big plus for the studio location: it's near some good and quick food options (always good when you're getting tattooed) like servandos, in n out, and wake cafe.

This was my first tattoo at Scratch Tattoo Studio and it was such an incredible experience…read more After finding Jadyn's work on Instagram, I DM'd them. They were super responsive, listened, chatted with me through all my references and made the process of booking very clear and easy to understand. Jadyn shared the pricing upfront, managed my expectations on when I could see my custom design, and seamlessly worked with me through my feedback. My design had many mixed elements from different sources and Jadyn blended them together in a way that brought my vision to life so much better than I even imagined. The studio itself is very clean and feels so calming. I immediately felt relaxed. Jadyn spent a lot of time with me going over the stencil and placement. I really appreciated the recommendations and their impeccable attention to detail. Jadyn's style has a lot of dramatic, geometric lines and you could tell they were constantly analyzing the work throughout the process to make sure everything lined up and came out beautifully. This is my third tattoo but easily the best experience I've had getting one. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend checking them out or even messaging them to inquire if you're thinking about it.

Kris at the piercing shop was amazing from the second I walked in. I came in really stressed out…read morebecause my 5-year-old tragus piercing suddenly got badly infected (not because of the shop at all), and she immediately helped calm me down. She was so kind, patient, and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain everything I needed to do to help save my piercing and made me feel so much better about the situation. I'm so grateful for all her help and reassurance. Thank you, Kris!!

Even though I made an appointment, I still ended up waiting, and walk‑in wait times at this studio…read morecan be long -- usually around 45 minutes before you're called, even on a slower day. Unfortunately, the wait wasn't the only issue during my first visit. When I finally got in, the interaction with one of the staff members felt uncomfortable. I asked a simple, genuine question about whether piercings on each side have any meaning. He said he didn't know, which was perfectly fine, but the way he responded afterward left me wondering if he was being sarcastic or mocking me. It felt unnecessary, unprofessional, and honestly made me hesitant to return. These days it seems like you can't ask anything without someone turning it into something political, and that's not what I came in for. I did go back for a second visit, and that experience was completely different -- much more easygoing. I guess it really just depends on who you get. Still, that first impression was annoying enough that I've never looked back since. If you decide to visit, I recommend coming with a friend, especially if it's your first time. Having someone with you can help avoid misunderstandings, give you clarity, and make the whole experience feel more comfortable and supported.
