AMAZING.. went in for a piercing felt kind of nervous because I can't handle pain that well but this shop made me feel so comfortable and relaxed along with the shop was so friendly, and had great pricing. Ben helped me out and he was very kind and helped the process of getting the piercing go by so quickly. I definitely recommend this place and will be coming back if I ever want another piercing. :) read more

Absolutely the best service I have ever gotten. I've gotten multiple tattoos & piercing and I absolutely love them all so much !!!!!

Please please do not get piercings here! I came in for my rook and 2 days later it was severely infected. I took it to my usual piercer and they informed me that the barbell was a low quality metal with far too harsh of a curve. They removed the earring and found it was externally threaded as well (externally threaded earrings can essentially cause micro tears in the ear, prolonging healing and fostering infection). I got the earring changed by my usual piercer yesterday and the piercing is already doing better! read more

i got a bridge here i was pierced with a curved barbel which is the wrong jewelry for a bridge and the piercing itself was crooked and too shallow after going to a second shop i was told to take it out immediately because after 3 hours the piercing was already migrating. very upset i waisted my money came here because of the good reviews extremely disappointed. The workers were very polite and the shop is clean and well organized i would only recommend this place for simple piercings do not go here for anything technical read more

This is an amazing tattoo shop! I was helped by Ben and he was the sweetest and had the nicest energy. Make sure you have your usual things you need for a tattoo appointment aka ID, idea of size, reference photo, etc just to make it easier for those who work there. This shop is extremely nice and clean and has a great ambiance. Cheers to Ben! My tattoo came out perfectly. read more

My friend and I are visiting LA and wanted to get a piercing/flash. This shop was near our hotel, we walked in right after opening and Angel was so helpful and lovely! She pierced my septum and redid my second holes and also gave my friend a beautiful flash design. They are cash only and have an ATM - very reasonable prices too! I am so happy we stopped by and would recommend piercing or tattoos by Angel to anyone in the area! read more

This is such a great spot. Super clean. Professional. Great people who work here. I've had a number of tattoos done by Ben and I'm always happy with his work. I highly recommend this place. Definitely check them out next time you're in Hollywood. read more

Professional, clean and quick! Came in for a couple piercings on a whim and was happy with the experience. Will be back for a tattoo soon!

The worst worst disgusting place ever! DO NOT GO HERE if I could give 0 star I usually do all of my piercings myself never once had a problem I have went to a piercer once his hand looked like it was infected and had some type of disease but guess what my piercing from him was healed completely fine no problems but from this shop the absolutely worst it's infected badly and I think he might've nicked a vein it caused a bruising outside of the piercing and turned into the most disgusting thing ever because of the piercing my whole body was in PAIN I could barely move or sleep once I removed the piercing the relief I felt. They are money hungry no care about the customers literally disgusting! No knowledge on how to run a business! Watch the shop will close down soon for sure literally disgusting AND THE WORST NASTY ATTITUDE ugh . read more

good customer service but the tattoo looked nothing what I asked for the stencil looked better and I asked to move stencil and he said yeah but noticed no difference read more

This place is amazing ! Always open and has some great tattoo artists. The owner Skin Kardashian is the man. He will tattoo you day or night. I've got over 5 tattoos from him and his prices are the best in Hollywood for his level of mastery ! read more

super easy and painless process! i've had my nose pierced before and it was semi-closed and i had worried about scar tissue but the piercing process was great! john was also is super friendly and i'm so happy with my piercing! read more

I went on Friday the 13th while the piercing price was $31 plus $9 mandatory tip which equals $40 as the total per piercing. I got my triples and a helix done. Well actually, I wouldn't say "done" because my ear is literally swallowing my thirds because the bar is too short. This isn't surprising because the blonde lady who pierced me used the wrong earring and needle according to the man who she called over to help her stab at my ear repeatedly when the needle wouldn't go through. After this happened on the first hole, she made excuses about my skin being "too thick". After the 2nd and 3rd hole was even more painful, she concluded she would have to stick me again in all three holes (very painful) and even still she had to stab at the other side of my ear to open the hole on both sides. Pretty barbaric if you ask me. I should probably note there was no list when I came, she wasn't doing anything, and she seemingly had all the time in the world... so why this went so poorly... my guess is a lack of experience, over confidence, and inability to own up to it. Not to mention the man who came over to help her stab the needle through my ear from the other direction (for the 3rd or 4th time) didn't even introduce himself before he proceeded to man handle my inaccurately punctured open wound. Definitely started seeing spots towards the end when one said to me "what's wrong?" in the most aggressive and condescending manner ever. I replied "it hurts" and they said nothing and kept trying to push a needle through each hole unsuccessfully. They gave me a free ear cleaning solution "for my troubles" but gotta say it feels like hush money. Something ain't right here. SMH and they had good reviews... honestly if you go you best of luck. Make sure you do your research on what your getting and how it's done. They clearly need some supervision and accountability. Also I called 3 times before leaving this review. Surprise surprise - no answer :) I almost forgot! My jewelry completed sunk into my earlobe and caused me hella pain issues sleeping. I took it out and had to restab it open within a minute with a new piece of jewelry. Surprise surprise, the one she picked wouldn't go through/stay in :) read more

I came here once not knowing what to expect. What I came out with was a tattoo that I love and enjoy to look at. It was done by John who is a professional and gets the job done. Very chill energy the vibe is nice. So I came back for another tattoo, along with a nose ring. Good prices and good people. 10/10 Do recommend if you're looking to get a tattoo or piercing. read more

I'm not sure what's going on in that shop but I DO NOT recommend coming here. I was charged around $650 for 2 small tats. Also they don't do refunds. So if you're looking to get your money back welp it's gonna stay in they're pockets. These people don't know what they're doing I say go to actual professionals. "baha" smoked while doing my tattoo and she basically fucked it up. Who smokes while doing a tattoo. I should've known better..it is in Hollywood. Very disappointed DO NOT GO HERE. read more

These assholes hung up on me while I was trying to make a appointment take your money to people that care about their customers

Me & my friend went to the shop to get my friend's earlobe pierced yesterday. Ben is very friendly & accommodating & did a great job with the placement & my friend didn't even feel any pain. He also explained the aftercare, so the piercing won't get infected afterwards. Will definitely come again. Thank you, Ben! read more

loved this spot wanted a matching tattoo with my friend and we stumbled upon this spot off yelp and so glad I did! Ben was awesome & did exactly what we wanted highly recommended ! read more

I should have walked out when I saw some guy delivering weed to the guy in the back, but my friends and I were impulsive and really wanted to get piercings done. I decided I wanted to get my septum pierced. First red flag was that my jewelry wasn't run through a sterilizer, but instead he just sprayed it down with alcohol and paper towel. Next, he was about to stick the needle in my septum without even cleaning the area first. I had to ask if he was going to clean my skin first to prep it and he said "no you're good". Once my piercing was done I realized it was totally crooked! Like really bad. The only reason I'm giving a second star is because he re-pierced it right away. The shop did not offer any after care sheets or cleaning solutions to take home. On top of that, my friend pulled out cash from the ATM and paid him for an industrial piercing and a tiny tattoo. After seeing how messed up my piercing was, she didn't feel comfortable doing the tattoo and he immediately said "sorry no refunds" right as he still had her cash. He told her not to worry about tip though and that she can just take home jewelry. I call BS on that. First it was $140, then he said $150 and then $170. He was all over the place. Very sketchy business for sure. And my septum is still crooked lol read more

Didn't feel professional or sanitary at all. Aside from the artist acting douchey, he was also being racist toward my friend and when called out, he turned her away from business and caused a scene in the store. read more

They were so nice and accommodating! I got my first eyebrow piercing here and the guy who did it was so patient understanding and nice and literary hit the placement and size of the ring right. There was also 0 infection like the easiest piercing ever. I highly recommend this place they are awesome read more

My cousin and I were wanting to get some piercings done, and John did an amazing job! I got my nipples done, and my cousin got her septum done. He made it so fast and simple. Can't wait to come back in a few months, and would highly recommend. Cool dudes. read more

Highly recommend this place. Very clean and fun vibes. Ben was my tattoo artist, he is very friendly and has a unique style of tattooing. He really added some creative touches to my tattoos and really made me fall in love with every design he makes. He also has a light touch and was constantly making sure I was comfortable in the most painful parts of getting the tattoos. Overall just one of the best places I got tatted and will be back! read more

I've gotten two tattoos and a septum piercing from Ben at Cahuengawood and I love them all he's fun and gentle and makes the experience easy. I also saw him do a beautiful dermal and I'm contemplating getting one Baha is also great I'm planning one from her soon. Super chill vibes and not the normal grumpy tattoo shop experience. read more

this place was an impulse choice. i decided that i wanted a belly button piercing at about 5pm. most other shops in hollywood are closing up by about 8pm , so it was literally the only place with same day option available. it was also really inexpensive compared to some other shops, with fast service. be prepared to bring cash! it's a very new shop but the guy who did my piercing has been working in hollywood for 20+ years. i'm very happy with my choice :) read more
