    Beyond happy with my time here. Got my tattoo and couldn't be happier with it. Artist are super friendly,mike was mine. First time getting a tattoo and he couldn't have made the experience better. Very helpful everything was very professional and thorough.

    Most amazing tattoo experience I've had! Mike Demasi is doing my scalp piece, it's a vibrant part watercolor part Lisa Frank inspired floral piece, we got a good chunk done today and he did it in such a way that it looks like a finished tattoo not a chunk of something in progress, it's beautiful. Mike has a really light hand and made sure I was as comfortable as possible the whole time. The entire shop is clean and inviting, they even have snacks for you and everyone there is super nice. Can't wait to get more added to this!!!

    I got my tattoo right before the shut down back in March. They were so nice to fit me in an early morning hour before they opened. The place is super clean and staff is super professional. I wear the tattoo on my forearm for my husband's brain cancer. He did a great job!!

    Amazing shop! If you're down the hill like I am and might be hesitant to make the drive- don't be it's totally worth it. I have had work done by Daniel Mees and went back to him. He does great work and the shop itself is beautiful welcoming and just a great place to be when you're getting your next tattoo. thanks much to Daniel and all the people at Art J. I'll definitely be going back.

    Cha Cha does awesome work and already booked for my next one. Are they expensive?...Yes but the work is worth the price. This tattoo was seen by Nergal lead singer of the Band Behemoth and he was so stoked with the work that I made it on their Instagram page. So check them out I think the work is the best in High Desert.

    Everyone on staff is super friendly and great in their profession. Daniel Mees did an amazing job on the lotus mandala, cover up/fix of my dolphin tattoo and sea turtle covering dolphins. If you want a tattoo check them out, so worth it!

    Brent Olson did this amazing work on me July 16,I had it done before my wedding day

    I went here July 16 to get a tattoo for my dad,who past 8 years ago. My tattoo artist name was Brent Olson,He does a amazing job.He doesn't get to do alot of horror tattoo witch he love's to do.But i'm hoping after my tattoo it will help him.He was find with me taking breaks and trying to move around to get relax after awhile. I am very happy with the tattoo,I love it and my husband love it to.

    Have only gotten work by Aric Taylor, I always catch him on a cancellation and since im in the LA area its easy for me to drop what im doing and bust an hour and drive, but definately worth the wait on an appointment. Hes done my 2 half sleeves, and currently working on my side, theres many ppl that tattoo but Aric's a true artist.

    Daniel is the best!

    I'm so happy I found Sam. I had reached out to a few other places beforehand, but she was by far…read morethe most informative and kind, which made choosing to book with her an easy decision. She really listened to what I wanted, made the process feel comfortable from start to finish, and helped me achieve the look I was hoping for. What stood out most was how thorough and intentional she was. She took great care in mapping the shape and finding the right color for my lip blush, and I really appreciated that she never rushed the process. I was looking for someone who specialized in a natural style, and she truly knows how to enhance your features while still keeping them natural. She'll definitely be my go-to for permanent makeup in the future, and I'd highly recommend her. Thank you again for making this such a great experience from start to finish!

    This shop is so clean and truly every aspect is high quality. I got pierced by Becca a few months…read moreback and she is such a professional. I had both nipples done and she made me feel so incredibly relaxed and comfortable. I am so glad I came to this shop to get such a sensitive piercing. She was very clean and friendly. I also have recently gotten tattooed by nando and he was amazing as well! His line work is incredible and he is an amazing artist. I absolutely love this shop and will be coming back!

    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.

    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

    What the owner RICHARD of Chicano Tattoo and piercings in the galleria in Victorville did to my…read morehand for $500, that's what it was supposed to look like and on the other photo you can see what another artist has started so she could fix what was broken. A 6 hour tattoo done in 45 minutes what this man charged me $500 for where every single line was jagged, crooked, and lobsided. He contradicted himself, lied, and went in circles when I confronted him about it through an Instagram dm, tried to charge me an extra $150 to shade it in when I went back in once the swelling went down and started to actually see what he did. Then told me I was threatening him when I said I would post photos on google and yelp reviews, but if you think I'm wrong and you did a magnificent job why is posting a review a threat? But baybeee listen that $500 is coo because guess what I will be in that galleria everyday from the time they open until they close standing with photos of the tattoo close up and photos from the conversation we held on Instagram for proof to warn people going in there. He go need that $500 because I can bet your last dime that I will be in that btch everyday showing people pictures of this tattoo he did and letting potential new tattoo customers of his know the scammer he is! The photos speak for themselves! This occured on September 29,2023! Please be careful he will try to come off super nice but he is a very shady man! His name is Richard! He is bald with tattoos on his head! I pray the word gets around so he doesn't take advantage of anyone else, tattoos are permanent! I would give him -5 stars if I could! We exchanged words on Instagram and all he did was lie, go in circles, and contradict himself! I CANNOT STRESS IT ENOUGH PLEASE BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE AND DONT GO HERE FOR A TATTOO GO TO AN ACTUAL ARTIST BECAUSE YOU WILL LEAVE WITH A BACKYARD/ JAILHOUSE TATTOO! AND HE WONT ADMIT HES WRONG HE WILL TELL YOU HE SPENT YOUR MONEY IF HE FCKS YOU OVER AND YOU ASK FOR A REFUND! I even tried to be fair and ask for only half back even though this tattoo clearly wasn't even worth $50!!!!! And please beware he can do letter tattooing but if you have art work go elsewhere! I pray this reaches anyone before they are let down and stuck paying extra money at an actual shop to fix his wrong doings! It's already hard in the economy as is! Photos of the conversation will be uploaded where he told me at the beginning he charges $500 for this type of tattoo because of detailing. But as you can see in these few photos I posted, where is the detailing? PISSED, SAD, ANGRY IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT And might I add, he blocks people on Instagram who's tattoos he messed up! So you cant see the mentions!
