Melissa Santos runs the place. She did this amazing realistic cherry blossom tattoo on my leg. And she was able to make my last name blend in to the trunk of the tree. I just gave her a rough idea of what I wanted and told her to add her own artistic flare, which she did. What she came up with was bigger than I anticipated but completely beautiful The end result is a beautiful realistic cherry blossom tattoo that looks like it was painted on my leg. It seriously looks like an artist took an easel and painted it. She also had a light touch, so the pain wasn't as bad as it could have been. You can check out the tattoo in my pics read more

The vibe here, the quality of the work, the talent that Michelle is blessed with, I wouldn't go anywhere else.

They apparently don't do tattoos for less than 500$! Must be a waste of their time. Although making nearly 100$ in 15 mins seems just as profitable. Whatever won't be back. Hope this information helps for people looking for a simple small tattoo. read more

Just had my tattoo done by Melissa yesterday. Man she does not disappoint. I reached out to her about a month ago and left a voicemail and was called back later that day and given the run down on what I needed to do. So when I figured out what I wanted I called and left another message and Melissa called me back promptly and we went over what I wanted. I sent over the pics of what I wanted and where and put down a deposit and got an appt date. She was able to send me a photo of what it would look like based on the pics I gave her which is so cool because you get to see it before they apply to stencil so she can make any adjustments you want. Once I arrived she made me feel very comfortable and everything was super clean and sterile. She was so patient and kind when I was a bit indecisive and offered suggestions and also gave me pros and cons about placement and size. I can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and wants you to be 100% satisfied with your tattoo. The ambience was quiet, peaceful, and relaxing and I got to watch tv while she worked. I absolutely love my tattoos and 10000% recommend her. Her pricing is VERY fair and worth every cent. I will definitely be going back for more work. read more

I came here for my first tattoo yesterday and Danny was my artist. It took a minute for him to get everything ready and then he came out and went over placement and size with me. Once I got in there he was very nice and friendly and explained everything pretty well. The tattoo came out exactly how I wanted it and he went over aftercare really clearly and made sure to answer all my questions. I will be going back to him in the future! Aside from my artist the shop was very clean looking and there was a lot of art on the walls as well as pictures of work the artists had done, and the pricing was very fair! read more

Melissa is the kindest and sweetest person I have met so far. And needless to say, an outstanding tattoo artist. I was blown away looking at the end result of my tattoo. I just gave her some raw pics and she was super patient in hearing me out and finally delivered an art that speaks tons about her talent. The other artists in the studio were very kind too. To top it, she only charged me 1/3 of the price that another artist quoted. Am glad I went to this place. I highly recommend. read more

3 words... Go to Lodi. Got a tattoo from Jonathan here and im horrified. How could management let this jerk tatt on me knowing that his work is questionable. I hav about 10 tattoos and his is by far the worst. Eff this guy and this place read more

I had lived with horrible tattoos for years and was embarrassed to wear a tank top. The owner Melissa worked with me on an idea for a cover up. Needless to say 12 hours later my eyes were filled with tears of joy for the beautiful piece of art she has put on my body. So much better than I ever imagined. Melissa is the artist to see! read more

Awesome customer service. Dan Juge is an excellent tattoo artist. Just all around awesome place

Danny is the man!!!! I was referred to him by my brother and sister in law. This is my second time getting inked by him. I gave him an idea and let him roll with it. This time around I got around my elbow. It hurt like a b!@#!@ but he was patient and made sure that I was as comfortable as I could be. I loved it and will be back to finish my sleeve. If you're looking for a place to get some ink, I would highly recommend Danny. read more

I went to Mike with an unfinished tattoo that had been done very poorly, and he fixed it amazingly. He offered suggestions and helped me to figure out how to best work with my tattoo. Since then , he has done one other tattoo for me that I am very happy with. I will deffinatley go back to canvas when I want more tattoos. read more

Why does this place has 5 stars? I don't know I guess is because people don't compare prices and quality of work around before they get work done at this place. I went in just to look at their work and their prices and I wasn't even welcome by the two guys that were there I felt like a dumb ass standing there looking around, then finally a very young guy came out from the back and I told him what I wanted and he couldn't even understand what I wanted, t then he told me it will be $250 (even tho I could see that he wasn't still sure of what I wanted) for some letters are u fucking kidding me? Well thank God I didn't have anything done here cuz I'm not sure what I would of ended up with lol, well I got my tattoo some where else I love it and it was only $100 and the person who did it actually understood what I wanted and made it happen, so conclusion is THINK TWICE BEFORE YOU GET INKED HERE SHOP AROUND AND FOUND A REAL TATTOO ARTIST WITH DECENT PRICES :) read more

My fiancé & I just recently gotten tattoos done here by Danny. Both on different days. We never been to any shops here in Stockton but we came here because they had the best reviews & (if not busy) no appointment needed! My fiancé didn't make an appt. We walked straight into the shop & was immediately greeted by Danny. He was very nice & funny! He was able to draw out his tattoo and started on it right away. After Danny was done, he explained all of the care tips to us. I made an appt for my tattoo. It was a $20 deposit and you can only make appts by walking in. The deposit is deducted from your tattoo price. I was able to describe to Danny how I wanted my tattoo and he drew it out exactly how I pictured it in my mind. My fiancé & I are both highly satisfied with our new tattoos! Danny likes to make you feel comfortable, constantly asks if we're doing okay, and he makes conversations with you so you can be distracted and not focus on the pain so much. I don't really know the other artists there and haven't seen their work but I would recommend anyone to go to Danny! The other artists seem nice too! Aside from our artist, the shop is small but clean! There's a lot of different pictures/drawings all over. There's tons of photo albums for you to choose what kind of tattoo you would like or to give you ideas. It's very clean and tidy! Pricing was very fair! Besides talking to your personal tattoo artists, you can also hear all of the side conversations between the other artists. Instead of being just coworkers, they all seem like good friends too! They like to joke around with each other and their conversations are hilarious! Anyways, my fiancé & I plan on going back to Danny if we ever want another tattoo done! :] read more

I have had two great experiences here. Was referred to Melissa (the owner of the shop) through a friend and wow...what a talent. Communication was good, wait time on the appointment was only about a week and a half, and she will bring anything to life. I went in their with two of the stupidest descriptions of what I wanted and it was easy for Melissa to understand what I wanted and add her style to it. The line work is immaculate, colors and deep and defined and the shading is beautiful Melissa took two personal aspects of my personality and portrayed them exactly as I imagined on my body. Always a good experience. Clean shop, easy to understand after care instructions, cleans area and opens all equipment in front of you. The prices were fair to me based on what I had been quoted in the past. In the interest of full disclosure, those quotes occurred in Chico, CA where I never ended up getting work done. I am not sure how prices vary from here to there, but for the work and experience I received these prices are more than fair. I would trust and refer Melissa and her shop to anyone anytime. read more
