Chen is truly an amazing artist. I absolutely admire his work! You can tell from the get go that he's a professional. Setting an appointment with him is super easy and swift. The place itself is quite clean and well put together. Chen helped with the placement of my tattoo and even designed two custom pieces for me to chose from. At first I was nervous, but during the process of getting my tattoo, I felt really relaxed. It was almost painless! He is very considerate and even offered me a drink when we decided to take a short break. Chen is very talented, quick, kind, and 100% trustworthy. I find his prices to be both affordable and reasonable! I plan on getting another tattoo in the future and I hope to get another piece done by him soon. I cannot thank him enough for his work, skill, and talent. read more

I looked up Ink by Chen on Yelp and messaged them--less than an hour later, I was able to set up an appointment. Chen was amazing--he worked with me to adjust two images that no other artist would touch and created a piece that carries so much personal meaning for me. He's incredibly patient too--doesn't get frustrated with bathroom or smoke breaks, and he was able to freestyle adjustments on the spot exactly how I wanted. The shop itself is super clean, cool, and has a professional yet laid-back vibe. Honestly, I'd just hang out there if I could! So glad I found this place--thank you again, Chen! read more

This place is clean and immaculate the moment you walk in! You can tell they care about cleanliness and hygiene. Chen was super easy to set an appointment with. My husband sent a few reference photos and Chen was able to create some beautifully detailed and intricate pieces to tattoo. He is also super friendly and offered us a coffee and a little break for the long 6 hour session. So generous and thoughtful! Price is DEFINITELY worth the investment for this level of skill and detail. This man is an ARTIST. You can tell just by his shading and attention to detail. We were so pleased. We plan on getting more bigger pieces with Chen in the future! Thank you so much for this life-changing tattoo for my husband! read more

Ink by Chen - Mermaid - Tattoo Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

The service here is really good! I'm glad I chose Ink by Chen for my first tattoo because he's very skilled and attentive with the details. I trusted his work enough to want my first tattoo experience here immediately after seeing all the different tattoos he's done before. He works at a good pace where it's not rushed at all, but still quick. Aftercare materials were provided, like tattoo cream and a second cover to use later. An appointment is easy to get over text too. He's super professional with everything and takes cleanliness seriously. It's also rare to find someone that's good at a lot of different tattoo styles, but he is. Just look at all the tattoos he's done. read more

Ink by Chen - Love my tattoo! Great hand. Barely felt anything. It was careful and thorough. Looking forward to come back - Tattoo Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

I Was very impressed with the friendliness and responsiveness from the time I reached out with a high level idea of what tattoo I wanted. He was able to put together a few designs for me and we collaborated and made minor tweaks. His vision is second to none and artwork is best in class. You can tell he's a true artist. Tattoo took 2 sessions and a total of about 10 hrs. Felt at home while I was there. Chill vibe, great music and good people. My sleeve turned out better than I could have ever imagined!! I will be coming back for all my future tattoos and recommend everyone that wants high quality artwork done by a true professional. I had 7 tattoos before this one and his lines, shading, and artwork is the best! My tattoo is healing beautifully and wasn't overworked. 100% recommend! read more

A friend recommended me to come here. The master has been skilled for many years. I like his aesthetics, good service and patience. I didn't know what the result would be when I came here, but I am very satisfied with the tattoo. It has covered up a lot of the marks caused by my pregnancy. Thank you for the master's patience! read more
