Absolutely loveeeee my new ink! Horishin from Jessyen family is incredibly talented, very professional, and has a great, upbeat attitude. The studio was clean, the atmosphere was welcoming, and my tattoo turned out even better than I imagined. horishin is incredibly attentive to detail, took his time, and ensured everything was placed perfectly before we started. The piece is healing beautifully. Highly recommend!
Went here to get an ear piercing with Kenji. He was amazing and he talked me through the whole process, explaining everything and asking me what I thought. The vibe was very chill and homey, it was also kinda alt and I liked the decorations. Also I was offered a water bottle first thing when I came in so that was amazing. Definitely gonna come back again, thanks Kenji.
I went in to have Kenji take a look at my nose piercing and he kindly helped me figure out a way better placement and had perfect explanations! You can really tell this is his passion cause he makes sure to put a lot of care into his work, I definitely recommend My Tattoo for piercings.
I called My Tattoo to inquire about a septum piercing, and they were able to get me in within 30 minutes. Kenji was very thorough and asked about my previous septum piercing from another shop. I told him I had taken it out almost four years ago. He suggested checking whether the holes were still open, and luckily they were, so he only had to stretch them a bit before putting the piercing back in. The process was completely painless, and I was in and out of the shop quickly. Also, free parking in the back of the shop. :)
amazing!! i got my eyebrow piercing by Kenji & it went super smooth. he is really precise and passionate about his work. i would come here again. there is also wonderful tattoo artists here as well, i can't wait to come back possibly!
First time getting a big tattoo and was great all the way through. Loved it and will for sure come back to get more ink. My tattoo artist was Eduardo and he was amazing. Always kind and checking in. Overall 10/10 Also Kenji did my eyebrow piercing and was also a 10/10! Dude was super friendly and explained everything amazingly. Both Eduardo and Kenji are amazing at what they do.
So I'm not the type to usually leave negative reviews, but I wanted to share my experience here. The reviews are extremely high and positive, that's why I came here for my first navel piercing.. Now I had an appointment and you go to the back.. it looks unorganized and really shady. Not the best place to get pierced. I didn't even feel comfortable, and my piercer was awkward. So they claim their jewelry is real titanium.. I have extremely sensitive skin, so I can only use real titanium/silver/gold. Clearly they don't use authentic jewelry from what they claim. I even added a photo. And that's not even the worst part. After this reaction, my piercing ball fell out. So I went back and pay to get another one. Not to mention, as I'm leaving the piecer is asking me if I want any other piercings and he's pressuring me to get more.. how weird. And a week later.. my piercing falls out AGAIN. This time, I don't go back but I look for another reputable piecer. I'm just kinda confused why the reviewers are unanimously positive.. this place isn't professional and you get pierced in a shady area in the back. I also didn't even feel comfortable. There is definitely better out there. I just wanted to share my experience in case other people are looking for a piercing and stumble upon this place. Personally, I did not have a positive experience.
Tattooed by Will! Started off with just a forearm and ended up getting a full sleeve. The details and coloring were exactly what I wanted. I just gave Will a rough idea of what subjects I wanted and he did the rest. Turned out beautifully. He's also very accommodating with making appointments for the sessions. Definitely will get the other arm done in the future by Will too. Shop is nice and clean. All the staff there are really chill too.
My place to get tattoos for almost 20 years by my favorite artist; Man Yao. He tattoed me soooo many different times on different pieces of tattoos -------------------------- Updated review from most recent visit: I just got a new tattoo from Man Yao, AGAIN! It was to cover a very bad looking long scar caused by my cat's scratch on my calve. I've known Man for so long. He knew exactly what I'd like the tattoo to look like as I was describing to him. On the day of my appointment, he showed me the design that I immediatelyliked! After many hours, the finished tattoo was exceeding my expectations! The lucky charm and the lion's head.. the color combination altogether was just AWESOME! Highly recommended to others trying to look for an amazing tattoo artist. He would cover up all your old bad tattoos, scars, or just refreshing old tattoos and make them look amazing again!
I looove this shop! I've been here a few times for piercings and Kenji always takes care of me. The piercings are all done well and heal even better. Great atmosphere and super welcoming staff.
Kenji and Pinky were super friendly and helpful. I have too many piercings as is, but my boyfriend has virgin ears and just wanted to get some in the spur of the moment. Both Pinky and Kenji were chill, informative, and down to earth. We really appreciate everything they did, especially since my boyfriend was really nervous at first, but the way they treated us made him feel reassured. I've also gotten a few piercings and tattoos here as well, and that's why I highly recommend this place. Everyone has a good energy about them and they always do a great job. Ten out of ten!
My second time being pierced by Kenji and he's the only person I'd trust to pierce my ears. He makes you feel comfortable and his technique is exceptional. Cool and clean shop.

Had a deposit down 400$ with Lucy Hu for 2 years. Yes, I had to wait two years for her. I ended up 2000$ upside down after we got to the tattoo day ending with an unfinished tattoo that does not look good. She said she could finish it but now I have to put down more money!!! 400$ deposit MORE $$$$$ and she can't get me in until 6 months later. In addition I will be billed at 400$ an hour for work to finish the tattoo....the tattoo is 4 inches by 7 inches long....She is so busy I have to wait so long. She is rude and short when you ask her to fix something. I wrote to her and called humbly and she was so cold to me. I felt like all she cared about was my money sadly. I'm now in the process of finding someone who wants to clean up and finish the work and try to make it look better. Honest I wish I had not come to her. Horrible experience thumbs down for me. read more

My daughter wanted a bellybutton piercing, so I took her to My Tattoo, which is close to home, so my wife made an appointment with Kenji to have it done. I was a little nervous, but Kenji was really professional. He answered my questions and made me feel at ease. The piercing was really nice and I do recommend him if you need a good piercing done cleanly and professionally. read more

I came to My Tattoo to get one cartilage and a third lobe piercing (pair). When I walked in the ambience was very relaxing and "chill." Hector was my piercer and I think he did a great job! My friend got her loves repierced by Hector as well. He made the process very reassuring and made us feel more relaxed by keeping a conversation. I would definitely recommend coming to this place for piercings. With the 10% yelp check in, my third lobe (pair) and one cartilage piercing came out to $63 read more

Amazing place! I was not sure what placement I wanted, but I knew I wanted 2 helix piercings (gold/dark blue). The piercer, Loc, was very welcoming and was able to help me decide what would compliment my flat since it was pierced incorrectly by another shop previously. Loc helped me pick out the earrings to work with the color jewelry I already had and I love it! Social distancing with one person in at a time, felt comfortable in the shop, very friendly people. Loc also offered this saline piercing cleaner solution which I purchased for $10 and has helped me with the healing/cleaning of my piercings everyday. Piercing appointments are also to be made the day of so just be sure to call in the morning, I think around 11. Info on their website. Thank you so much for a great experience, my friends and I I will definitely come back for another piercing when these heal! :) Pierced by @locmytattoo on IG! read more

I called My Tattoo to ask about getting a ear Piercing and a change of nose ring. Up on answering I had the pleasure of speaking with Kenji, he was very professional helpful and informative. He was able to get me in within the hour. Upon arriving for my scheduled appointment Kenji consulted me on what would be best for my ear anatomy we ultimately came to the decision of rook. The whole process of the piercing from the sterile procedure to the continual checkins and information on where we were at in the process. I felt very safe and confident in Kenji as a piercer I will exclusively be getting my piercing from Kenji from here on out. Absolutely amazing experience! read more

Loc was my piercer for my two upper lobes and he was super friendly and gentle! I was a nervous wreck and my pain tolerance is below the ground but he made it tolerable. The piercings were seamless and answered any questions I had and showed me piercing aftercare. Prices here are pretty reasonable when you use the check in offer. Making an appointment was pretty easy and the piercing area was clean! Highly recommended. read more

My 2 friends and I decided we wanted to be a little spontaneous today and decided to get poked! Loc did such a great job! I'm so happy with how my piercings turned out! He made sure to explain the placement and functionality of the jewelry to me. Initially I was unsure of where I wanted my two studs but I trusted him and he chose the perfect home for them. I will definitely be back for more. THANKS SO MUCH LOC!! (: This little shop is filled with such nice and talented people!!! We made a very fast and easy appointment (mind you this all happened in the same day). read more

After years of contemplating I finally got my helix pierced and I love it! I made a same day appointment on the phone and they were quick to fit me in. My piecer, Mackenzie, helped angle my helix based on my personal anatomy since I didn't have a lot of ear space. I also liked that he asked if I planned to put a hoop in since stud vs hoop helix have different angles. I was done in like 10 minutes! I bought the recommended H20 Ocean spray for my aftercare since I heard it was really good for healing, but wound wash would also suffice! I gave this place 4 stars mostly because I felt like he wasn't very thorough discussing my aftercare because a customer did a walk in after me so he gave me his Instagram handle in case I had other questions. Despite this, I would still do your own research on aftercare, because that's the most important part! Overall, a good experience! I would come back again :) NOTES: CASH ONLY, YELP CHECK IN FOR 10% OFF read more

I went in for a double helix and went through a very quick and easy process. My piercer was Kenji and he was helpful throughout the whole process and took some of my preferences in consideration for my piercings for the future. They provide a good amount of resources for aftercare as well. read more
I had such a pleasant time getting 2 cartilage helix piercings here!! I did a walk-in for my piercing. I was dumb and didn't see on Yelp that the place was cash only and they let me go to the bank down the street (there's a chase nearby if that helps) and come back and the second I got back, we were good to go! So just be sure to have cash on hand and you'll have no problems haha. It was $25 for each cartilage piercing including jewelry! What I like the most about this place is that the people here are NICE. There's nothing pretentious about this place. I went to a place before that was like 3 times what they charge for here and it was kind of bougie and not the vibes I really care for. Sunny was super sweet and precious. She's knowledgeable and makes you feel comfortable. It's good to come with an idea of what you want (and I definitely knew what I wanted already), but if you don't, she'll definitely help you through the process and make sure you're going to be happy with what you're getting!!! You have a choice of a stud or ring for cartilage as long as there's room for swelling/healing to happen, they'll let you know if you're picking the right thing :) I was super excited that 16 gauge rose gold rings were available because that's EXACTLY what I wanted!!! It was meant to be :D I also loved how excited she was after she was done with my piercing and how much she loved it/thought it was super cute. You can tell she enjoys what she does and it makes you feel good/great that you got something that makes your piercer happy!! I'll definitely be back for another piercing once these heal up! Parking tip: they have a lot in the back, but I made a mistake pulling in, it was full. So unless you're staying more than 2 hours, which I don't think you will for piercings (but you might for a huge tattoo?), you can park on the street behind the place. read more
LOVE SUNNY! She was amazing and my tattoo came out beautifully. I'd definitely go back to her again when I get another tattoo! She is talented and very kind. I got a portrait tattoo to honor my late uncle and it's perfect. I had to hold in my tears when I saw the finished product. Highly recommend her! read more

Amazing ppl! My niece came in to catch up on some good ole teenage ear piercings she wasn't able to get during Covid, the piercer (McKenzie) was so amazing. My sister and I weren't sure how well she'd handle it, but the piercer truly helped make it a comfortable and easy going experience. The whole experience easy and fun thanks to him. read more
