    Mermaid Lagoon Tattoo
    Corina C.

    After a 12-year hiatus, I finally returned to get tattooed, and I'm so glad I chose Mermaiid. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of amazing. The atmosphere of her space is both private and welcoming, which instantly made me feel at ease. Her customer service is truly top tier. She's friendly, attentive, and makes sure you feel comfortable throughout the process. Her artwork was exactly what I had envisioned in my head. I get many compliments and can't wait to go back! This year alone, she is 4/5 through completing my left arm and it is already looking beautiful. Love her

    meeting Isabelle was an absolute pleasure! she's super sweet and funny, down to earth and executes designs perfectly. the vibes in the shop are always chill and fun. I've followed her for years on social media, admiring her work. and by fate i was able to get this beautiful tattoo. she's not heavy handed at all which is a plus. her attention to detail is exceptional. since having new ink, i received so many compliments at work, everyone stops me and tells me how stunning the colors are and once they notice the star wars details they are blown away. i can't wait to figure out what my next tattoo will be because Isabelle will be the one doing it. thank you so much mermaid!!

    Mermaid is the best! From a simple Eagles logo to a badass Naruto piece, I wouldn't go to anyone else for color tattoos. Not only that but she's extremely nice, understanding, and makes one feel comfortable. I was having doubts about a piece and she didn't make me feel guilty at all when we changed it up. Definitely recommend!

    I followed Meraiidink here when she moved from her other spot. Shop is nice, clean and spacious! lsabelle is a great artist and does amazing work.I've gotten 7 other tattoos from her and every single one is ,beautiful. She is S0 e t creative, friendly and one of the nicest people 1 know. Definitely recommend checking her out and this shop.

    LOVED my first tattoo experience with Mermaid Ink. Very sweet, personable, and really freaking good at what she does. I told her I was nervous about getting my tattoo because of my low tolerance for pain and needles but she was very reassuring and checked-in with me throughout the session. I HIGHLY recommend Mermaid Ink!!

    If you want THE BEST COLOR popping tattoo Isabelle is the chick to hook you up! When my sweet Penny passed away I knew I needed THE BEST person to memorialize her on me. I searched for a while before my sister found Isabelle's IG page. I looked through it and was in awe of how she made color pop and look realistic. To say I'm pleased is an understatement. I literally get teary eyed when I see my Penny on my back, where she belongs cause she always had my back. For 14 years she was my ride or die. That's her art. Her skill. Now let me talk about Isabelle herself. She is literally the sweetest and chill chick. She makes you feel calm and relaxed. I referred my bff to her for her first tattoo and she said Isabelle helped ease her anxiety and was very sweet to work with. I LOVE her intimate studio as well. Decorated very girlie, just like her. You will feel cozy and calm. Looking forward to my next tattoo with her!

    My first time getting tattooed by Isabelle was back in 2022; She did an amazing water colored paw print for my dog. Before I met Isabelle, I had many concepts for new tattoos but had a hard time finding a new artist that I trusted & felt comfortable with, especially with the pieces I wanted to get done. Fast forward to 2024 & and now I have 7 AMAZING pieces from her & I love every single detail! Isabelle makes the entire tattoo process easy and fun. She is very knowledgeable about colors and placement! She really knows how to take a concept and turn it into the best reality! Her studio is very peaceful, clean & colorful. She really cares about her clients and takes the time to make sure we are comfortable. I just had a 2 day session with her to get a tattoo I had wanted for years, and it came out incredible! Isabelle is an amazing person & artist! I recommend her to anyone who even mentions getting a tattoo done! If you're thinking about getting a tattoo from her, Do it! You will never regret it!!

    I'm surprised there's not much reviews for this artist. I couldn't have picked a better tattoo artist for the ink design that I wanted. I wanted an anime tattoo, Princess Serenity from Sailormoon. It turned out really beautiful. I love it and I'm so proud to show it off. Her studio is very comfortable. It's very cutely designed , clean, smell good. I didn't even need my AirPods and charger to keep myself entertained for a 5-6 hour session. She has a tv right there which I can pick a movie. I watched one movie and a few episodes of anime and korean series. That helped a lot in distracting myself from the pain of the needles. She allowed me to use numbing cream which some artist wouldn't allow it. She even reapplied it when the cream wear off. She's very sweet and have gentle hands. If anyone wants colored tattoo especially if you live in the area, look nowhere else. I will for sure come back to her for more.

    First time going to Isabelle was 5 years ago and I've gotten five tattoos in total with her, with plans to come back for more in the future! I keep coming back due to the quality, friendliness and inviting studio she has! I've praised her & her artwork whenever asked by strangers, I've recommended her to many friends as well, you won't regret coming to her! She makes you feel right at home and listens to your idea/ concerns. I've gone two a few other artists, and Isabelle is by FAR one of the BEST I've came across. Don't hesitate to contact her and get your artwork started!

    Got my tattoo done about 10 years ago from someone else. Since then it has faded and needed some love. Found Isabelle on yelp then on IG. I fell in love with her style and how she made colors pop!! I made an appointment and I couldn't be happier!! She brought my tattoo back to life and it looks better than the original! I also love her studio!! It's clean, cute and private! She has a tv and she makes you feel at ease. I'll definitely book her again for my next tattoo!

    Best decision so far in 2024!! Thank you Isabelle for a beautiful tattoo and experience, can't wait for another one

    When Zero looked out of place
    Karina D.

    I went for my first tattoo with Isabelle back in 2022 for a Jack Skellington tattoo and I had a previous Zero tattoo done by another artist as a flash tattoo that looked like it didn't belong. I asked Isabelle if she could add to it or change it up so it looked like Zero and Jack were one piece and she came up with a coverup Zero and they both look amazing. Went back for that earlier this month and now looks like it was one piece to begin with and it's beautiful. I love them both and will definitely be going back once I figure out what design to do next. She came up with 2 designs, what I originally asked for that was the additions, but after she showed me the coverup design I fell in love with it and didn't even ask to see the other one lol.

    A. M.

    I was nervous about getting a tattoo in general but glad I had it done by the extremely talented artist (Isabelle). She made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Our conversation helped to distract me from focusing on the minimal discomfort of the needle. The tattoo suite is warm and inviting. I highly recommend her.

    Thank you to Joslyn for helping me repierce my septum. I am very pleased with the experience and…read morewas informed on how to use a glass retainer to maintain my septum whenever I have an MRI. This is the second time that I've been to the tattoo and piercing shop; the first time I went with a friend and also came in for a repiercing due to a hospitalization. I'm hoping this will be the last time that I go to this shop for a repiercing, but I will definitely come back here if I have to. Joslyn was extremely professional and made sure I felt comfortable the entire time during the piercing process by double checking that it didn't hurt. I had to purchase one of their steel titanium jewelry ($15 was the cheapest one) and was not allowed to use my own jewelry that I bought from Laughing Buddha. Which is totally understandable and makes sense as to why they don't use other jewelry outside of their own. I think it also specifies in their rules or contract that you're not allowed to bring in outside jewelry, but I would call to make sure. I also did not like that they didn't have a more comfortable waiting/seating area. Those tiny chairs on wheels are not really plus-sized friendly and I would have appreciated a regular chair instead of those. The online booking experience for an appointment within 3 days was easy to use on their website. I believe there was a $5 security deposit that goes into your overall total at the end of your piercing/tattoo session. In fact, my piercer Joslyn even emailed me to ask questions about my piercing history and whatnot. I really appreciated her attentiveness to detail and for taking the initiative to understand her customer's needs. Overall, I had a pleasant experience with my piercer Joslyn and would highly recommend her for your piercing needs. Thanks again!!

    I recently had my first two appointments with Michael after being referred to him by family members…read morehe's tattooed. Their tattoos always looked clean, professional, and creative, so I felt confident booking with him. For my first tattoo, Michael was able to take me as a walk-in, which I really appreciated. Even though I didn't have an appointment, I never felt rushed. I explained what I wanted verbally, and he immediately sketched up a design that was exactly what I had in mind. From start to finish, I was tattooed in less than an hour. It's been a few weeks now, and it has healed beautifully. I went back for a second tattoo, a small rib piece. I had sent him the font I liked beforehand, and when I got there, he whipped up a few size suggestions to help me choose what looked best. He took the time to make sure everything was spelled correctly and placed exactly the way I wanted before we started. Both experiences have been fantastic. Michael is professional, clean, efficient, and genuinely cares about the quality of his work. His workstation was spotless, and for my rib tattoo, he even used a clean drape on the bed to make sure I was comfortable while lying on my side. If you're looking for a tattoo artist who is talented, creative, detail-oriented, and respectful of your time, I highly recommend Michael. I've had two great experiences with him, and I'll definitely be working with him again on

My little brother has a few tattoos by Andrew and only has the very best things to say, plus his tattoos and the line work look SO so good... so when my sister and I recently visited said brother in Long Beach, we had to put Retro Row Ink on the agenda. This tattoo shop is one big open room with maybe 8-10 artist-stations throughout. Everything is super clean, colorful, and welcoming, and of course there's tons of beautiful artwork by the resident tattoo artists across the walls. You gotta browse and enjoy all the different talent! My sister got a couple small tattoos, some script and then her daughters' initials worked into a tattoo she already has. Andrew sent us a link to a website where we could search and select fonts, but if you need ideas your tattoo artist will definitely have them! I like the idea of tiny tattoos on my hands/fingers, just one tiny step at a time, hahah. I decided to get a single teensy star, which I now call the North star. It looks like a classic, Christmassy twinkle star... or what a single light looks like in the dark when you have an astigmatism, ha. ANYWAY, it's the perfect tiny little sparkle and Andrew was able to draw it with the tiniest, finest little lines. I love it. I'll see how it heals and how the ink takes to my hand-skin, but I'm already making plans for my next Long Beach trip so I can see Andrew again!
