This photo barely shows the cuts on my ear. I went o the tattoo shop…read moreAnd the owner said he could pierce my ear. He pierced my ear and used a clasp earring which I never seen done before but I trust the owner and all his years of experience. Bad idea. Not even a week later my ears were in so much pain and swollen, the claps were so tight they cut the skin on my ears and my skin began to heal around the earring. I had to go to a tattoo shop to have the earring removed. I had blisters near the end of the clasps and my skin over grew the two ends of the clasp to separate the earring from my ear. There was no room between my swollen skin and earring to where we could cut the earring with pliers so spent over 35 minutes trying to remove each ring. I was in the wrist pain I was crying screaming blood was everywhere my entire left side of my jaw went numb and I almost past out cause the pain. My sister came with me and got her cartilage pierced that day as well. Just this morning she sent me a video of two out of three of her piercings were ingrown with the skin in her ear. The jewelry he used was too small and there was no room left for swelling.

The best part was that I felt no pain at all during the tattoo! You can really tell he takes pride in his work and pays close attention to the little details. He made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process and was very careful with the placement and execution. I absolutely love my tattoo and couldn't be happier with the final result. I highly recommend Marco to anyone looking for a talented, patient, and detail-oriented tattoo artist. I'll definitely be coming back for my next tattoo!

This is my second time working with Donovan and I'm still soooo impressed!!…read more I was waiting to get my first big tattoo and 2023 was finally the time to do it. I knew I wanted a meaningful wrap around on my arm and he nailed it! Donovan was patient, took his time to make sure it was in the perfect spot, and answered all of my silly questions. The design was unique, well thought-out, and exactly what I pictured for my first big one! I will 100% be coming back for another, and will refer folks to Donovan if anyone in my circle needs a tattoo! Look at this work! Thanks Donovan!!

I'm extremely disappointed with my experience getting tattooed by Mars Valmonte. I scheduled my…read moreappointment a week in advance, but I never got the opportunity to see the design beforehand. I didn't actually see the design until the day of the appointment, and because I trusted the artist, I went forward with it. Unfortunately, the tattoo felt very rushed. The lines are unclean, the shading is extremely patchy, and the overall piece looks unfinished. I honestly feel uncomfortable and embarrassed having this tattoo on my body, which is a terrible feeling to have after trusting someone with something permanent. I also wasn't aware that they can't work after 4 PM. If I had known that beforehand, I would have scheduled differently or gone somewhere else. I feel like the time constraints contributed to the tattoo being rushed. I understand that mistakes can happen, but for something permanent and expensive, I expected much more communication, preparation, and attention to detail.I just want my tattoo fixed

When I first walked in the male at the desk was not very friendly and did not even greet us. We were handed over to the piercers and one asked the other "Do you want her or do you want me to take her?" the other responded "I don't care". At this point I'm don't really feel like a valued customer, I'm just whatever to them. Not one person said hello to me, introduced themself, or even asked me my name. The whole process felt like I was being rushed and they wanted me in and out very quickly (despite no other customers in the shop). I was moved to the small room in the back and every question I asked felt like I was bothering the piercer, giving me short answers instead of helping me to make a decision. The jewelry did not seem properly sterilized, just quickly sprayed down, no autoclave machine. I did not even see the piercer wash her hands. With the unfriendly and unprofessional staff, hot and stuffy room, the piercer's baby crying in the small shop, and unclean practices I chose to leave. I did have to pay $20 because the piercer said she already opened the needle (which was opened before selecting jewelry and marking). Not complaining because I understand those are her supplies, but I wish she waited until she saw that I was ready and comfortable. Was hoping for a different outcome because I saw so many great reviews, but perhaps I caught them on an off day like a few other negative reviews mentioned

Y'all I'm still in the car, barely left the parking lot but I had to come here and throw my thoughts down so you could come experience this for yourself. The vibe in here is everything. Honestly? Old sf city vibes. I'm talking Haight street before it got gentrified ok. They make you feel at ease, they know what they doing, and somehow in the 15 mins we were there I almost invited them to family dinner? If you have a baby or a teenager --- they gonna be taken cared of foreal. Our middle child didn't get anything done but he did cry because he felt bad for his little sister, and Mops made him feel better with lollipop and all to raise his spirits. I'm coming back for my nose piercing for sure. And now the mister thinking about getting his eyebrow again. Parents of 3 who? A little more details if you need it: Amber knows exactly what she's doing. She's got a medical background so if you feel a type of way, know that she's more than qualified. She's also a mom... like a cool mom, so we're good there! The aesthetics in the room make it such a vibeeee. Alright I'm out. GO HERE. You won't be disappointed.

Unfortunately, that confidence didn't translate into results. He clearly didn't understand the blending or flow required for the piece, and what should have been a smooth, cohesive design ended up disjointed and awkward. It's cost me thousands of dollars to have other artists fix and cover parts of his work -- money and time I never should've had to spend. If you're after American Traditional, Richard might be a solid choice. But if you want Japanese Style or anything that requires more nuance and flow, I'd strongly suggest looking elsewhere or at least demanding to see a comprehensive portfolio first. Very disappointing experience overall.
