This isn't my first tattoo or shop experience and I can say that all of them that work there are all very professional, welcoming, and nice.

Amy was awesome and she did such a great job. I always get the pre-tattoo anxiety and she was so patient with me. It honestly didn't even hurt, I almost fell asleep. Was very fairly priced! See you guys next year~

My friend and I went here in 2024 for a walk-in and we unfortunately got Sean (or Shawn idk). He…read morewas kinda intimidating and even though I wanted a small heart on my hip, every "revision" seemed like he wasn't trying. I regret tipping him. I went first and he gave me my first tattoo, which I've been regretting for the past 2 years and cry over it almost every time I see it. His line work SUCKS and it's uneven. I have a picture of it right after I got it and when I saw the picture, I almost started crying and I immediately regretting it. His coworkers were so much nicer and before I saw what it looked like, they mentioned they'd do touch-ups for free. Before I even got home I started contemplating it, but ultimately decided I never wanted to go back there.

Two years in and Danny is still the only person I trust with my arms. He's been building out my…read morepatchwork microrealism sleeves session by session and somehow keeps getting better. The detail work he pulls off at a small scale is genuinely hard to wrap your head around until you see it up close. I've had strangers stop me just to ask who did it. The shop itself is a whole vibe too. It overlooks the ocean which already makes it one of the coolest locations you could ask for, and the interior matches that energy. It looks sick in the best way possible. Everyone there is super welcoming and easy to talk to, just good people doing great work. If you're serious about getting tattooed and want someone who actually cares about the craft, go see Danny. He's the real deal.

Taylor Wright was recommended to me by a friend. I had a special piece in mind for my shoulder…read more It's a nice size piece with small details. Taylor not only took on the design, but he created exactly what I wanted. He is so detail oriented and talented. I love how it came out, and it's such an emotional piece for me, as it represents a special person and life lessons I've come to love. I highly recommend True at Heart if you want quality work.

This is for the Laguna Beach location:…read more My husband and I walked into Vatican Studios on a Friday evening after hearing about a community gathering and were immediately welcomed. The studio was spotless and had a super comfortable, inviting vibe- perfect for my first tattoo. I asked about customizing a piece and was introduced to Priscilla. She was incredibly kind and patient, especially with my Farsi calligraphy design, making sure the meaning stayed correct. She walked me through everything and was so gentle. I'm obsessed with how beautiful it turned out. My husband also got a tattoo from Emily, who was just as warm and outgoing and clearly cares about her clients. Amazing experience overall. Highly recommend Priscilla and Emily!
