I knew Cesar was going to be my first tattoo artist in LA the moment I saw his work. He was super responsive and an overall awesome guy. A guy with many talents and easy to talk to. Though my tattoo is simple, I knew I could trust Cesar's work by just looking at his portfolio. Once I'm ready to get a more detailed design, I'm coming back. Heck, he'll probably be my go to artist when I'm in LA. Highly recommend! read more

I have had the pleasure of being tattooed at Black Tower Studio three times! They are very skilled and pleasant, take time to educate you on care and placement as well. Scarlett has been a delight, takes her time and checks in with her clients. She even serenaded me during my session- super therapeutic! Come and visit for their amazing flash! Plenty of options! read more

These two tattoos are beautifully done and both have so much meaning to me . Shino did an outstanding job , made me feel very comfortable the entire time ! Cesar was very kind from the beginning, as soon as you walk into the shop it's truly masterpiece with all the art pieces ! The "Cookie" tattoo is an example of elegant script work. The lettering flows smoothly in addition of the small heart adds a sweet, personal touch that enhances the lettering . The sad clown tattoo is an absolute masterpiece of traditional black and grey work. The shading is skillfully executed, giving depth to the sorrowful expression, while the fine linework ensures crisp, clean details. The composition is balanced perfectly, with the ruffled collar and heart accents adding a classic vintage feel. Both very personal and intimate to me , I will definitely be returning ASAP for more work ! read more

The shop itself is very clean, welcoming and professional. As for the tattoo itself- amazing! Cesar took my scattered ideas and turned them into a cohesive piece. His attention to detail, shading, and line work is next-tier. I appreciated Cesar's patience and communication. Before every session, he walked me through the plan and made adjustments, if requested. I can't recommend Black Tower Tattoo Studio enough. read more

Scarlett tattooed my and my wife's arms with a heart design of my wife's, perfectly. We had a great intro conversation about what we wanted, scheduled a day and time with her right then and had our tattoos a week later. It was an amazing first time for us both. Highly recommended!! read more

I had such a great experience at Black Tower!!! Jhen, my tattoo artist was friendly, welcoming, and kept my well updated.

Excellent service and quality work from Shino. I'll be getting all my tattoos from here!

First time at Black Tower Tattoo, and I got to say, wow this was a great time. I came in with my best friend to get tattoos designed for us. We were able to do a walk-in to meet our artist who took great care of us. In less than a few days, we got our designs back and we were set for our tattoos. After a few more days, had our appointment for tattoos and knocked it all out in one day. Remember to be on time and your good to go. They take care of you and will just be there for you if you have any issues or concerns. I highly recommend this shop if you are in the area. read more

Clean facilities, awesome staff. They explain everything for you and make sure you are comfortable.

Amazing service! Absolutely love my tattoo and the staff was so nice and accommodating.

Went here on a whim for flash day. Hurt my skin and seems like it blew up. Horrible tattoo shop. Wouldn't recommend it. They messed up my tattoo. Cheap tats. read more

Worst tattoo experience I have ever went through. Was done by Shino. If you have darker skin or black I would stay far away from this shop. Last picture is that design that I requested and it couldnt be any further from what I got. If I could give it a 0/10 I would. The worst part is that she messed up on a line and tried to cover it up with same skin color ink which I have never heard of an artist trying to do. Stay far away. The manager Ceaser was cool though. The first picture zoomed in picture is the reference read more

I had the most excellent experience at Black Tower Tattoo! The vibes this shop has is spooky homey a museum of sorts. There are many pieces of art throughout the shop that I'm sure I didn't even get to see all of it! I came in from out of town to get a piece done by the lovely and extremely talented Zee! The experience was super chill; Zee is very professional and soft spoken that I felt at ease and in good hands with her. I had the privilege of meeting other artists and this shop and it felt like I was surrounded by friends. I look forward to coming back for my next tattoo. I attached a photo of my healed tattoo. read more

Soooo Scary!!!! At it again! Trip with cousins, and the majority wanted to get matching tats. They decided on the sun, moon and stars and I just went with it. The shop was very comfortable and clean. Music was good too! Now, let's talk about the artist. Scary is the name, and kindness is the game! There were 5 of us getting the same tat on different parts of the body. Quick and easy, and the work is phenomenal! Scary made us feel at home and was happy to do the same pattern over and over. I can't wait to see how it looks when it heals. Forever linked to the rest of the crew that got the same art. read more

I did an initial inquiry for a tattoo on Yelp and Black Tower was one of the studios that reached out. I was so grateful that Cesar helped with my initial request. I had to get rid of something in my life and I need a symbol of that and I picked purple hyacinths. I showed Cesar this and He picked the most amazing tattoo artist, Eugene to take care of my design. Eugene saw the picture I wanted and executed it with perfection! I've been so emotional all day because it really is perfect and I love it with all my heart! I couldn't stop giving him hugs! I'm truly grateful. He gave me specific instructions on how to take care of my tattoo. I'll most definitely come back for more artwork read more

I got my tattoo done by Cesar the owner and I really didn't like the experience nor the place I was locked in which is totally Illegal I think he locked me in because he didn't think someone of my color could afford the tattoo I requested smh. the decor is satanic and just awful. I have a major issue with this place of business because I got scammed. when I went to pay I used my card and I knew how much it was gonna be because I know my math but when I got home I noticed the shop charged me an extra $179 I immediately called the shop about this discrepancy and was told that because I used my card theres a bank fee but those are only $3 max but they stated that it's 20% at their shop I said wow what a scam that's not informed on your website nor your shop all you did was tip your self without my permission and authority and said I'll be calling my bank to dispute this transaction. I will never return nor will your reputation be the same because no one likes a scammer!!! I own my own business so I know how credit cards work Majority of my clients pay by card and there is no such thing as a 20% charge for your total Caesar you lie and you lie and then your gonna have yelp and google and other platforms remove my true post so you can keep on scamming the public. read more

Amazing little spot that I accidentally ran into. I was able to go in on a last minute walk in and the artist I had (it's gonna kill me that I can't remember her name) but she was amazing. Quick, efficient and on point. Had the best results and my tattoo healed super fast and looks amazing. It was priced reasonably and it was exactly what I wanted... would definitely recommend and will definitely be going back in for another soon. read more

I LOVED my experience at Black Tower! This is a safe space for women and queer people to go. I felt very safe, and it's across the street from Jewell's Catch One. My tattoos came out beautiful and the ladies that tattooed me were both incredible. Zee and Alina both have a very gentle touch. I will definitely be back. read more
