Found this place on a whim based on their Yelp reviews, came in with a group of myself & 2 other girls we got a conch (ear) piercing, nose piercing, and lobes and we were out and driving home in an hr and 20 min! Could not recommend this place enough. Brandon was the best and very knowledgeable about piercing after care. He was very thorough, and fun to talk to. Immediately noticed my rook was pierced (I thought it had closed up) but he helped me reopen it! It was the loveliest cherry on top for the trip. Check them out. Will be back for another piercing vs a tattoo. read more

Ken is amazing. I will never regret coming to him for my first professional tattoos after I turned 18. He does not mind at all letting you redo the stencil over and over to make sure it's just right and is very kind. His artistic skills and maneuvering are beyond impressive. My hand tattoo was a coverup on the top of my finger and the magic wand was just a heart before. As you can see both are amazing. Thank you Ken read more

Hermosa Ink Collective - I just got this yesterday, detail is absolutely insane and I'm sure it'll be even better fully healed - Tattoo Near Me - Hermosa Beach, California

I'm so grateful I found Ken. I reached out before my appointment to let him know I wanted to tattoo my husband's signature. My husband passed away six months ago, and I wasn't sure yet if I wanted to add something small alongside it--something subtle that felt like "us," without taking anything away from the signature itself. I honestly didn't even know what that something was yet. From the very beginning, Ken was kind, patient, and incredibly thoughtful. He never rushed me, never tried to overcomplicate the design, and never pushed an idea that didn't feel right. He just listened. He understood how much this meant and treated it with the care it deserved. The final piece is perfect. My husband's signature is exactly as it was--clean, elegant, untouched--and the small bird Ken added feels quiet, intentional, and deeply meaningful. It complements the signature without overpowering it, which was exactly what I hoped for but didn't know how to articulate. This tattoo was done on my birthday, the first one without my husband, and it turned an emotionally heavy day into something really special. I'll carry this piece with me forever. read more

We highly recommend Brandon for ear piercing! He did regular lobe piercings for my daughter. He was super professional, patient, calm, and explained every step of the process as he went along. I really appreciated how he took the time to ensure the piercings would be even and his thorough explanation on after-care. Parking is always tricky in Hermosa so just arrive early to allow time for parking and walking over. Glad we found him (through Yelp)! read more

The tattoo turned out exactly the way I printed it and brought to the shop. Even the size was perfect. Great experience all around. I would highly recommend this place! read more

Today I went in with my mother to get matching nose studs, we honestly had a great experience, the shop was very clean and well decorated, it smelled nice, the service was completely sterile and reliable, everyone was very professional and kind to us. I felt a bit bad for having my piercer move the dot so many times but not once did he seem to mind which made me feel a lot better. Honestly just a great experience overall, any future piercings I get will come from Hermosa Ink you can count on that! read more

Brandon made my piercing as painless as possible! I originally came in for angel fangs piercings and after talking with Brandon about piercing types and jewelry I learned that it wasn't the best fit for me at the moment. I received snake bites piercing instead and it was super fast. Brandon thoroughly went through information about jewelry, piercing, and aftercare. Not to mention the price was insanely good comparing to others who might charge nearly $200 in the south bay area. I personally only paid $100 (not including tip) for BOTH PIERCINGS. Thank you so much Brandon for my awesome piercing and our awesome conversation! Brandon made my piercing as painless as possible!

I just had an amazing experience at Hermosa Ink Collective with Justin for a navel piercing! He was very helpful and professional and i highly recommend this place and their services. He explained clearly to me about the healing process and after care that was needed. He even went through the steps of how the piercing was going to go before and during which I highly appreciated. The piercing didn't hurt at all and turned out just how I imagined! I came from Carson which is about a 25 minute drive and I would definitely come back again!! read more

Absolutely loved the atmosphere and cleanliness of this shop. The gentleman here were so cool/chill. I had an "emergency" deadline for my nose piercing that had to be removed for MEPS/military but I had it for years and for the life of me could not unscrew it myself and Brandon did it in like 60 seconds lol. Overall solid place great people and great experience here. I plan to return for future appointments !!! read more

Came here to redo 2 cartilage piercings in November. I wanted two tiny earrings so Ashley helped me out and showed me some studs that I could order through Hermosa Ink Collective - I went through their interface and paid $250 for two small gold studs. It was important to me to have studs I liked since you have to leave new cartilage piercings in for several months before you can remove them. The piercings healed nicely and my experience in the shop was nice, but fast forward just a few months, and the small diamond fell out of one of the earrings. I called the shop to ask if there was anything they could do for me. Each earring cost $125 and I would hope that I could expect it to last for at least as long as it takes for the piercing to heal. I spoke to a woman who told me she'd speak to the owner and get back to me. A week later, no contact so I called again. This time I speak to a man who tells me that Ashley no longer works there and that maybe I could try to reach out to her. I continued asking if there was anything the shop could do, so he suggested that I go in. I went in that same day only to be greeted by somebody else who could only offer to sell me some more jewelry to which I declined. Happy with my piercing, unhappy with my broken earring and lack of effort to offer my any solutions. read more

Have intended to update this for the longest time... First of all, Gerard made things so right on my tattoo (like, a year ago), and because my life immediately became crazy personal/professional turmoil, I never posted and appropriate review to make amends for the unfortunate experience I had previously. Shame on me. During the time of Covid, did not have any tattoo touchups so I can't speak to what things have been like since that time so I will jump to the new totally different service that I experienced and that was micro-blading of my brows with fabulous Kika. Was so excited to have a free consultation because I have been very curious about getting this done. Kika was on time & after a very thorough Covid protocol, she explained to me and showed me photos as well as a video of what I could expect. Was super excited and scheduled for the microblading. It took about three hours and was not terribly painful. The first hour is to properly set up how the micro blading is going to be done (complex mapping - our girl Kika is extremely professional and even has an app to make sure she has balanced all the lines correctly!!), called mapping. Then it's time for a quick bathroom break and about two hours of the procedure. The first pass is done without anesthesia. After that a little topical numbing is put on and it's not too bad at all from that point. Actually the whole thing is not too bad. Sent home with a handy aftercare kit and a very cute information card. Added a week later: not only do my brows look amazing, but the charming and sweet, and super artistic Girard touched up my tiny finger tattoo. Adore him. TL/dr: Def my go to spot for body permanent beautifying! read more

Everyone was very friendly! My first time in the shop and felt very welcome. I had ideas in my head but needed advice on placement and style. Thankfully, Gihan was there to help!

Highly recommend this spot to all. read more

I went in for a piercing a couple of months ago and was taken care of marvelously by Brandon! Coming in for the first time to a Tatoo or Piercing Salon can be a little intimidating, but not here! Comfortable, clean and inviting with a very knowledgeable and courteous staff! Brandon not only took meticulous care during the piercing, he gave me all the follow up information to make sure the healing was successful. He also, upon my request, pushed some additional earrings for me, followed up with the ordering, and took care of me again when I came in to pick up my earring selection. Exceptional, courteous and professional service! I highly recommend Brandon and everyone at Hermosa Ink Collective! read more

I came to Bruno at HIC because of his amazing reviews online, and all of his unreal pieces I saw on social media....and he definitely did not disappoint!! I wanted a small, fine line tattoo on my ankle as an ode the the queen herself, MISS TAYLOR SWIFT! Hahaha Bruno took the time to craft it PERFECTLY with me--I've never had an artist take so much time and be so precise in order to get it jusssst right--and this just shows how important his craft is to him. He did an amazing job, and the fact that he uses only a single needle allowed those fine lines to POP and not bleed. It's my new favorite tattoo, and I'm never going anywhere else. THANKS BRUNO!!! read more

Start to finish amazing service. Texted them yesterday about getting my wife's name done up same day for a walk-in, was told they were booked for the day but would gladly get me in today. Setting up the appointment was quick and easy. Wasn't set on a font and didn't even have one picked till I got there lol. Got there today for my appointment and the shop had a super chill vibe to it. Sophie was there ready to go. Had me fill out my waiver and size up the font I'd finally picked out. Before I knew it I was in the chair ready to go. The result was awesome! I'm already trying to think of what I want to get next! Clean lines, quick and painless!! Thank you so much read more

I recently had my very first tattoo done at Hermosa Ink and I could not be happier with my decision to go there. From my very first communication with Krys I felt very taken care of. She answered all of my questions and helped me when I needed to reschedule. By the time I walked in and met her, I felt like I was meeting a friend. As for my choice of artist, I hit the jackpot with Cihan! So patient, so kind, so helpful. Remember this was my first tattoo and it's tiny. But Cihan acted as if it was very important nevertheless. I love my little tattoo and couldn't thank everyone at Hermosa Ink enough. Super clean, incredibly kind people, beautiful work. read more

Sofie is amazing! She takes her time, gave me the tattoo I wanted. She's very kind and informative. I will be back to see her for more work. Everything about today's appointment was a great experience. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting a tattoo. Thank you so much Sofie! read more
