What can I say other than I love this studio. If you want a high quality tattoo in NorCal, go see my guy Che or his wife Shana. Both are very talented artists and will make sure you are 100% happy with your tattoo. read more

I went with my Sistah from a different mistah when she got a small forearm piece by her artist Shayna for moral support. She was getting a memorial for my sister who just passed recently. From the moment we met Shayna, she gave this laid back vibe as if I've known her for years. She did such a fabulous job on my family members piece that my mom and I decided to get tribute pieces for my sister as well. We set up an appointment and Shayna scheduled us the very next week. The picture of the three tribute pieces are in the first photo and the two photos after are the start and finished product of my tattoo. I have to say Shayna absolutely tapped into my sister's soul because I'm so happy with what she tattooed on me. If you are looking to get an awesome tattoo that comes with one of the greatest experience with an artist then I highly recommend checking out Shayna at Anomaly Tattoo! read more

I went to Anomaly Tattoo Studio to get a new tattoo. I met with Che and explained to him what my idea of the tattoo was. He told me it would be no problem and he would draw the tattoo and send it to me, which he did in a timely manner. I liked the drawing he sent me and scheduled an appointment to get it tattooed. Che and everyone I had encountered in the studio were super nice and friendly. The price for the tattoo was very reasonable especially since Che took the time and drew it for me. I highly recommend Anomaly Tattoo Studio and definitely will be back!! read more

I drove two hours to get my tattoo done by Shana. The venue: Easy parking and in a quiet neighborhood. The ambience was clean, very chill, and welcoming with seating, a water cooler and snacks and a powder room. There are three stations and Shana and her husband, who are the owners, were both friendly, had a great sense of humor, and non-judgmental. My process: In advance, to make the appointment go smoothly, I emailed Shana a picture of the butterfly I wanted as well as the part of the body I wanted it to go on; a week later she sent back a graphic of what the tattoo might look like so I could have an idea before my coming. She refined the sizing and placement with me at the appointment. My over all experience: Shana was very thoughtful with the tattoo taking into consideration the 'story' behind my chosen art . My favorite part was after the initial outlining, she used numbing spray which made the needle hardly noticeable! From start to finish it was about 3-3.5 hours which included color and a couple of bathroom breaks. I'm super pleased with the end result. Shana is such a friendly professional and was worth the drive. I'll be back for part two! read more

I appreciate Che so so much! I gave him a very general idea of what I wanted, and he captured that vision to a t! Not only that but the coloring and shading, is just amazing. Like I didn't think it was possible to get such clear, beautiful, and amazing color. I was amazed after he is done , and I am amazed as I watch it heal. I feel so lucky that I've found Che, and am grateful that I know he will be able to execute any and all future tattoo ideas . read more

I am currently working with Shana on my 4th tattoo with her. She did an amazing cover up for me that i absolutely love. I get tons of complements on it. And I can not wait to complete my new tattoo of a Phoenix on my hip/thigh. The shop is cute, clean and comfy. She makes the process easy and fun. She allows you chat or zone out... whatever your preference is. They play awesome music. And everyone at the shop is friendly and knowledgeable. I definitely recommend them! read more

I have gone to see Che since 2012, when we lived in San Jose. Since moving to the Central Valley and we ran into Che and Shana in Modesto. We have been going to Anomaly Tattoo in Modesto since 2017. Che has done all our work. We always felt comfortable and at ease. My husband passed away in 2021, Che has done a few more tattoos for me as a tribute. I will always get my work done by Che. I cannot see myself going anywhere else. I give Che an idea and he runs with it. I am never disappointed. The last 3 tattoos, I get so many compliments. The color is still so vibrant and amazing. I recommend Che and Anomaly Tattoo every time. read more

Shana is AMAZING! My brother's girlfriend got a tattoo from her and I loved her line work so I was able to book an appointment with her after a few weeks. Shana worked with me via text on ideas I had for a thigh tattoo, I told her what I wanted and also told her I wanted it to be buildable. After a few days she sent me a sketched and she worked with me more on changes I wanted. When the day of the appointment came, she made me feel comfortable and checked on me to make sure I was ok. She was able to keep a good conversation going and I never once felt uncomfortable (aside from the regular pain of getting tattooed). I LOVE LOVE LOOOOOOVE the finished product! She brought my idea to life and made it so much better! I live in San Jose so it was a bit of a drive to get to her but it was worth it! Also, the studio does follow covid protocols. There are hand sanitizing stations through out the studio, you must have a mask on at all times, she wore a mask and gloves and before we got started, she sanitized her station. read more

I happily drive from San Jose because working with Che is amazing! He took the few inspirational photos I sent him and turned it into something 1000x better than I could have ever imagined. The shop is super clean and everyone there is incredibly friendly. I would give Che and Anomaly 1000 stars if I could. I can't wait to go back and start working on my other half sleeve. If you are looking for a sign to reach out to them this is it! read more

Che has tattooed me probably a literal dozen times over the last ten years, and each one was better than the last. I moved away from the area a couple years ago, so I haven't been able to visit his shop in person, but I can say that I know Che, Shana, and Josh to be honest, talented, clean professionals (even if Josh doesn't look like it at first glance ). This is the spot to go if you're anywhere near central CA. Sorry I couldn't find/take more pics, have you ever tried to take a pic of your own elbows? read more

This is way long over due and I want to make sure the trashy job and expectations to have from Che. I contacted Che almost a month or so in advance to make sure I could get an appointment with him and to make sure that he had time to design something that represented my military branch in a unique way. I show up and he starts with making me wait. HE HAD DONE NO PREPARATIONS!!!! He drew up some things of which were not unique as I wanted and then when I decided on an idea, it just ended up being the worst tattoo I've gotten to this day(I have like 10 now). It's not visible but it's definitely getting a cover up. Worse artist I've dealt with. read more

Che is the absolute best when it comes to bringing your ideas to life! I won't go to anyone else. His work is always clean and it's been years, literally 10+, and I still don't need a touch up on any tattoo he has put on me! His wife, Shana, is also the nicest person you will meet. She did a tattoo on my sister and she was extremely satisfied with her work. These two are a power couple for sure! read more

Been going to Shana for 3+years. I met her when she worked at Pretty In Ink in Roseville when she did a "fixer" from a jacked up artist in Folsom. She has done over a dozen pieces for me ( full sleeves on both arms) and have 6 more to get and 2 redos.Hoping to get 3 pieces by the end of the year and get the other 3 next year. My redo"s the year after that. I drive from Folsom to have work her stuff!!! I don't trust most of the artist In Sac - they are over priced and only in it for $$$$. SHANA YOU'RE THE BEST AND GLAD YOUR MY ARTIST!!!!!! See you soon. read more
