I was a bit nervous about getting something permanent from a new artist. Well, ALL my worries were completely diminished when Mark, the owner, came out and sat with us to thoroughly discuss the good and bad of what "might" happen. He stayed with Charlie through the whole visit. Charlie was so incredibly genuine and really took the time to listen to our wants. You have to understand, these tattoos are very small crescent moons. So, with that being said...how much detail can one talk about. Well, she was so careful with the size, style, and also placement. I would definitely recommend Epic to ANYONE...from 18 to 80...they will treat you with kindness and make sure you are 100% happy when you leave! So impressed!! P.S. I am a grandma/53 yrs old

What won the contest was me mentioning that I wanted to get a pray mantis, and Jaime had found one on the front door of the shop. She snapped a few pictures of it, traced it, and that's he little dude we put in there. We did an olive branch because my grandmas first job was picking olives, and my daughter's name is Olive. A California poppy because I'm born and raised in Northern California. And pink azaleas because I had one in the front yard of my child hood home. My experience was top tier, Jaime was awesome and I'm so grateful for the experience. Thank you again Jaime.

I came to Universal Rites in search for a studio that had good vibes and talented artists. My first…read moreimpressions of the studio were, it's clean, the lobby was welcoming and had good seating with a portfolio of each artists work. I was greeted by one of the Tattoo Artists, Raul. Raul greeted me as I walked into the studio and quickly made me feel at home and walked me through all of the different Tattoo Artists work and booth areas. I left my contact information for a consultation with Raul and was contacted the very next day to begin my tattoo journey. Raul got me into his booth for tattooing the design I chose two weeks later from my consult. I have gotten over 36 hours of tattoo work done in the past. Hands down, my experience at Universal Rites Tattoo was one of my better experiences while getting tattooed. Raul's booth had a super comfortable table to lie on while being tattooed, his tattoo machines are newer models that don't hurt like the older machines used to and his booth was filled with art that he hand painted himself. Raul's work shows for itself, his line work is some of the best I've come across. My tattoo process was seamless, damn near painless and some of the more affordable prices I've come across. I'm excited to keep scheduling more future work through this studio and hopefully try out the other great Artists who work there.

Even bringing in my own high quality jewelry that meets piercer standards, she still would only change out with pieces from the shop's preferred brand.

Edit, regarding comment from owner: this is retroactive based on my experience from a couple years ago (only recently got on Yelp) but with your comment I see your practices may have changed.
