    Got my first tattoo with Tian about a week ago! My sister and I wanted fine line Chinese characters and Tian did a wonderful job communicating with us. He was so patient and very thorough! Still going through the healing process but I'm so happy with the finished product(:

    My fiancé got his first tattoo here today and he loved it so much that we are back getting him another. They are having a flash tattoo sale right now so it was an awesome experience. Everyone here is very kind and accommodating. We had Tian as our first tattoo artist and he's so funny and nice. Especially since it was our first experience with tattoos, he took his time and gave us all the aftercare information. We will update after the 2nd tat

    Went with my mom to get a small tattoo done. Jade helped us out and was very patient with all the questions we had. The place itself is clean and looks professional (much appreciated). When I save enough cash, I'll definitely be coming here for my first tattoo *Design was already decided before we came in*

    I've always wanted a tattoo but didn't find anyone in the bay area with a style that I liked. Social media is creepy and knew GH was my girl. Emailing was super easy with her assistant Max. I asked so many questions through email and Max was very responsive. I booked my December appointment WAY in advance in August. I absolutely love her smokey style and wanted a chrysanthemum. We agreed on a price and I paid a deposit through venmo. I did not get a preview of the design until my appointment. Come appointment day immediately loved the preview that she showed me on her iPad. I just had 1 minor adjustment along with making it bigger. We agreed on the price and she got things set up. The tattoo is 7.5 inches and took about 3 hours. She took at least 2 breaks that were honestly very welcomed. I have given birth to two kids and this tattoo is right up there on the pain scale. After the tattoo was done she sanitized it and then took pictures. Then, she put second skin over it and gave me aftercare instructions and balm. I don't know how I was so lucky to come across her ad. I am so happy with my tattoo and the details. Highly recommend.

    My first tattoo

    Got my first tattoo here this past weekend! I was with my bestie who has had many, and we both felt comfortable here, super clean, and the tattoo artists really made it easy to capture what we wanted, print out the design in multiple sizes to try on, even multiple of the same size to find the right spot. I'm not sure if that is standard in most shops, but it really gave me a lot of comfort with it being my first one! I had GH, and I'm going to affectionately refer to her as "God's Hand" bc it was perfectly done!

    Grant is the best!

    Grant at Modo Ink was amazing! He fit us 3 girls in and was so patient & kind the entire time. We spent about 2.5 hours at the studio laughing, giggling, and having the best time together. We were super loud (so sorry Modo and guests). We were just so excited and happy to be together, getting our silly and cute dumpling tattoo. We showed Grant what we wanted and he was so kind to work with us and show us what would work and what wouldn't work. We love tiny tiny tattoos but he explained that in doing certain designs that over time as it heals it would just turn into a huge blob. We really appreciate the heads up and advice. We had so much fun there and want to go back and get more when we all meet in LA again! Thank you!

    I was looking for a local studio and stumbled on Modo Ink on Yelp. Went to their site and browsed through various artists and their work, and Vicki's work really stuck out to me! So I reached out to her for an appointment and was scheduled within a couple of weeks. I emailed her some pictures of what I wanted. When I got to my appointment, she showed me some designs she made and I picked the one I preferred in the size I wanted and off we went! I was expecting it to hurt but it didn't! Microblading hurt significantly more! She was attentive, meticulous, and friendly! I love my tattoo and would definitely go back to Vicki if I want more in the future!

    My friends and I all came in as walk-ins. They were all so accommodating, timely, and kind! I was not afraid of asking them for new sizing or placements because they made me feel so comfortable. The place is so clean and they wipe EVERYTHING. They even sent me high quality pictures of my tattoo so I can show it off. The lining for my tattoo is also so sleek, despite being fine line and so small. All in all, I highly recommend. The staff was nice from start to end, tattoos turned out great, and the place is so clean and comfortable.

    Ayime was a super easy artist to work with, fast and quality!

    Ayime was a really easy artist to work with. Fast and quality work! Definitely going to be coming back

    Shadow the hedgehog

    Truly the most fun experience with dot! Super patient and communicative in every aspect! Would work with him again!

    My requested tattoo was captured exactly on point.

    I'm 48 years old and got my first tattoo at Gee Ink. The artist there made it fast, painless and a lot less scary than I thought it would be. He did an incredible job. I love it! Thank you!

    My appointment was on Saturday, October 8th. "Tomorrow" should read "today."

    I had a really stressful experience due to weird communication and unfortunate events. I contacted Grant late July with a photo of a tattoo he did that I loved. I told him I wanted something very similar to that. With his guidance, I communicated my ideas and his responses were positive. Mid-September, I sent my deposit for an early October appointment. I told him I'd be flying down from San Francisco just for the tattoo, and that I was excited because I loved his other design so much. Up to 5 days before the appointment, I hadn't heard from Grant, so I went ahead and drew on my arm essentially what I wanted in terms of placement and "brushstroke" size and flow, and sent it to him. He said that it was very useful, and that he would get started on the design in the next couple days. 2 days before my appt, I check in. He says he'll get started on the design that night. I purchase my flight and rental car. The day of, I hadn't heard from him. I flew down, rented a car, and with two hours to spare, emailed him to offer to bring him boba. He responds that he hasn't designed the tattoo, and asks to cancel and reschedule. I call the studio and ask if I can get a refund on my deposit. They tell me to hold, and come back to tell me that he didn't mean to cancel, he just wanted to push back the start time an hour I arrive at the new start time. Wait around for half an hour. Grant arrives extremely apologetic, and kindly asks me to look at the ideas he has for my tattoo. They're all bits and pieces that are pretty but that I'm not crazy about, and I do my best to collage something I like together while switching from English to my average Chinese when he doesn't seem to understand what I'm saying. I tell him that I wouldn't mind using similar themes and designs as the inspiration tattoo; he says that tattoo artists don't like doing this, so I drop it. The designing takes a few hours, and the ink work is started but left unfinished so I can catch my return flight. I really wish I hadn't been put in a position where the design and ink work had to be rushed with last minute and shaky communication. I'd invested so much time and money in this experience and tried to stay positive, but came out of it feeling pressured and let down. I don't know how to explain how difficult and stressful I felt the communication was, and I don't have the financial or schedule flexibility to go back anytime soon. Grant graciously offered free touch-ups without a time limit, and maybe even gave me a discount given my experience, but I won't be going back. I am again expressing that my tattoo is pretty to reiterate that Grant is talented, but the tattoo is now a constant reminder of a really stressful and disappointing experience.

    Good tattoos, not so good people…read more I got my first tattoo by Jess years ago. The tattoo was simple and came out decent. The experience, however, was horrible. I wanted the design to be smaller, there was something wrong with the printer that day and the shop assistant had trouble making the stencil smaller. After a couple of tries Jess starts roid raging and slams the clipboard on the counter (I kid you not) and said something like whatever man I'll hook you up, meaning he's willing to tattoo it bigger for me even though I didn't want it that size. Wow, geez thank you your majesty Jess Yen, I am so blessed to get something I didn't want after watching you act out violently. Years later I decided to try again, this time with his apprentice Lucy. I had a phone consultation with her and she agreed to do my tattoo saying that her wait time is 2-3 years. I agreed and paid her a deposit. It's been more than 10 years now and I have not heard from her or gotten my deposit back. When I reached out to her, she tried to gaslight me saying that I missed my appointment. I was never informed of an appointment. First the owner display questionable emotional stability over something a little as resizing the stencil and then his apprentice scams me for a few hundred dollars. Yeah, this place gets negative stars if I could.

    My friend and I were looking around for a tattoo shop for our first tattoos. We walked into Oni…read moreTattoo on Saturday and Sam @tatt.chi was able to take my friend. He wanted double bands around his forearm and Sam was able to sketch it out and do the tattoo on the same day. We were in and out within 1.5 hours. He explained the process and aftercare which made getting a tattoo seamless and less daunting. I was on the fence about getting a tattoo but my friend said if he got one I would have to get one too. I decided to get a runner with an ekg as I thought it was fitting for me. I wanted something small for my first tattoo and easily to keep hidden from my mom (sorry mom). He asked me to send him a picture of what I wanted and scheduled an appointment for Monday at 11am. Once Monday came I walked over and signed the consent form. He then printed out the tattoo and placed the outline on my chest and asked me if it was where I wanted it. Being a tattoo noob I trusted his judgement. After letting the outline dry I laid down and he began working on the piece. He said since it was a small tattoo and mainly lines there shouldn't be much pain and the healing process wouldn't be as long. It took about 30 mins to finish up the tattoo and the quality came out amazing. There was no pain at all and he went over the aftercare as well. I showed Sam this other tattoo I wanted and he said he would be able to do that as well. He says his art style is realism and anime so I can't wait to get more work done by him. He has been tattooing for 2 years now along with his apprenticeship. He told me to message him when I'm ready for my next piece. Maybe this tattoo thing is an addiction and will keep you coming back for more.
