    Welcoming and comfortable tattoo space
    Kenny L.

    Ka is awesome and I highly recommend his designs and tattoo. I got my first Bonji tattoo in Japan and wanted to add a lotus to my original piece. I also wanted a new piece on my right arm consisting of 2 new Bonji and a dragon. I found KaHo Inkshop through Yelp and was really impressed with his work. Ka was really responsive and easy to connect with. We had super smooth communication via email to go over the designs that I wanted and decided on the price and date. When I arrived the process was smooth and his tattoo shop is clean and modern. I really like how everything was so simple and clean in design. it is a bright and welcoming place. We reviewed the final designs together and placement at his shop. I liked how Ka was patient and wanted to make sure I was 100% happy with the design, the size and placement. At first, the dragon and two Bonji piece stencil were a bit small and I wanted it bigger. He removed the initial design stencil and placed a bigger one on which was the right size. It took around 7 hours from start to finish to go over designs and actual tattoo time. Ka was very meticulous and focused when doing my tattoo. I enjoyed chatting with him during the process and finding out more about him. He is truly passionate about his work and if you are interested in a tattoo you should definitely reach out to him! Thank you Ka for both of my amazing tattoos.

    I reached out to KaHo back around July to inquire about getting a full sleeve wrap around dragon tattoo. At the time I was out of town so we talked back and forth on the idea and setting up appointments. We had the first 3 sessions in October. It ended up being a really big piece because there was a little more mass/skin to cover so he adjusted the design to fit my figure/arm better. We ended up doing another 4 sessions in December (originally November but I had to leave town for a work trip and he was very flexible). KaHo was very good at checking in on me and how the tattoo was doing and even to this day he checks in occasionally. He ended up touching up the rest of the tattoo so that the ink looked more uniform and clean. This was my 2nd tattoo (you can see the 1st one I had was a very small piece on my chest) and it's the biggest piece I've gotten. Normally it might've been a bit nerve-wracking, but KaHo has made this process very smooth and easy to go through. He's extremely professional and without a doubt, a master of his craft. If you're looking for authentic Asian themed tattoos, KaHo is the tattoo artist for you. I know I'm definitely going back to him if I ever decide to get more tattoos (gonna take a break for now though) THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN KAHO!!

    I've gotten three tattoos from Kaho so far (with more planned!) and every experience has been amazing. I'd been searching for months for someone who could bring a specific brush-style tattoos and Kaho's work stood out immediately. Booking was easy through his website, and he's always quick to respond. The private studio feels safe and secure, with easy street parking nearby. Kaho is incredibly meticulous and detailed. He takes his time to work with numerous sizing and placement so each piece flows naturally with the body and existing tattoos. His use of red ink mixed with black adds such unique dimension and depth to his brush strokes and it's honestly so stunning. My first visit, he helped place two tattoos in a way that tied in beautifully with what I already had and I still get so many compliments on how cohesive my arm looks. For my second visit, I requested him a very simple idea for my chest piece and he elevated it far beyond my expectations! If you're looking for a thoughtful, detail-oriented artist who specializes in this style, I can't recommend Kaho enough! Thank you for your creative talent!

    Ka was super communicative about the design process for my second visit. My tattoo came out gorgeous and I appreciate how attentive he was when during the session :)

    Ka was an amazing tattoo artist, this was my first tattoo and he walked me through the entire process making sure everything was okay before proceeding with anything. I would definitely recommend coming here if you were looking for a tattoo. Ka is super detail oriented and focused on delivering the best service he is able to provide. Would definitely come back for another one!

    KaHo is amazing! At the outset, he responds promptly to emails. He works hard on your design and is open to ideas. Then when you get there, his studio is very clean and has a spa-like atmosphere. He's very professional. And the finished result is incredible! He's an extremely talented artist and I LOVE my tattoo! I highly recommend him- he's worth the wait!

    I really enjoyed my tattoo experience with Ka Ho. He was very responsive on collaborating with me and drafting up what I was looking for in regard to the final design. Very professional. He's very nice and with just small I find we have a lot in common. The session went well. We were the only ones there, but the shop is very clean and minimalistic. Looking forward to getting more work done with him in the future!

    KaHo had great communication no matter where I contacted him (Instagram, Email) and made sure to respond in a timely manner. He was very helpful with helping me select the style for my first tattoo and answered all my questions thoroughly. As it was my first tattoo, his experience made for a clean process that I appreciate! The final product came out amazing and I am very happy with Ka's appreciation for calligraphy and tattooing. 100% recommend anyone who wants an authentic artist in Chinese calligraphy.

    KaHo was fantastic! From start to finish. The shop is beautiful and very welcoming. The tattoo process is top notch! Kaho takes the time to make sure you are 100 percent satisfied! From sizing to the tattoo details. He does his best to gauge pain tolerance and gives breaks when needed! I am absolutely satisfied with my final product and would definitely recommend and return in the future.

    I went to KaHo's studio last weekend with my sister for her first ever tattoo, and the review below are her thoughts! Last weekend I had my appointment with KaHo, and had such an incredible experience that I needed to leave a 5 star review! As this was my first time getting tattooed, I was honestly very nervous about the process. Additionally, while I had a few ideas of what I wanted (the Chinese idiom, maybe some flowers/ plum blossoms) I didn't actually have a full design in mind. On both fronts, KaHo truly delivered above and beyond. The design he put together was the perfect mix of all the various inspiration photos and design ideas that I gave him, and it was so beautiful that I was instantly excited to have it inked on me. He also provided it a week in advance, giving me ample time to consider if I wanted any more changes. Then, at the studio itself, KaHo took time to size and place my tattoo to my liking, with an eye toward detail (he even brought out a ruler to make sure it was straight!). While I'm sure many tattoo artists would've been as attentive, I firmly believe KaHo must be one of the most careful and dedicated to his craft-- he made sure each part was perfect, and actually scheduled a touch-up with me a few days after to ensure the ink was dark enough given I had chosen a fine-line tattoo. His touch was also very gentle, and despite being worried about the pain, it hurt much less than I expected with no bleeding and a smooth, painless healing process. Finally, I must say that KaHo's studio itself is super gorgeous and truly lent itself to a relaxing, calming environment. It was the best place possible to get my first tattoo! Overall, I cannot recommend KaHo enough -- truly an artist and master of his craft!

    I've had three sessions with KaHo already and every single one has been an amazing experience! He provides thoughtful suggestions and recommendations, and his work is amazing! I drive all the way from San Diego to see him because his calligraphy style tattoos are unmatched. Thank you again KaHo, I'll see you again soon!

    Kara A.

    KaHo is an amazing and talented artist. I've been looking for an Asian calligraphy artist for a while and his work is just what I was looking for. He's very responsive to questions and flexible. If you're wanting an artist that pays attention to detail and perfection he's your

    Great communication. Was very open and helpful when working with my design and schedule. Process was very smooth and easy for a first timer.

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and immediately made to feel at ease. The shop itself is very clean and welcoming. The jewelry is beautifully displayed. I just wish I remembered the name of the woman who helped us because she made such an impression. She walked us through all the options at different price points in a way that felt completely neutral and respectful. There was no subtle steering toward something more expensive. It genuinely felt like whatever we chose was the right choice. Ivy, my piercer, was incredibly thorough and precise. I really want to stress how pleasant and painless this piercing was. I am talking pain level 0 out of 10. I AM NOT MAKING THAT UP. She is extremely clean in her process and talked me through every step so I always knew what was happening. The room itself felt like a doctor's office in terms of cleanliness and professionalism. I wanted to write this because there aren't many reviews here about septum piercings specifically. When I was searching for where I wanted to go, Oak and Poppy kept coming up but I didn't see many septum reviews. Ivy is a true professional in this work. It's clear she knows exactly what she's doing. The staff cares about the customer's experience and it shows every step of the way. If you're looking for a septum piercing and want an experience that feels comfortable, this is the place to go! Thank you Ivy! Thank you Oak and Poppy!

My husband and I got matching tattoos here and for the tattoo itself it's 3 stars. Today, it has been 3 days since we got the tattoo and although the tattoo itself is small, has fine lines, and is on the wrist, it appears as if it has a smear/smudge on one of the corners on both tattoos. This isn't my first tattoo, and my husband and I have been following the after care and have been careful. It's on the healing stage, but you can tell that the corner line differs and there is a smudged area on both tattoos. For both these it was $240 total and done by Chris. I will update this review once the tattoos heal completely.

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.
