    This review is long overdue. I had a great experience with John. I haven't had my ears pierced since I was a small child. He walked me through the whole process and made me feel very comfortable. After my ears healed he helped me order hand crafted pieces that I absolutely love. I can't wait to get my other ear done with him.

    Brandon is awesome. I've been going to him for 5 years now, he's a good person prices veryyy fairly and has beautiful work. He's an animal lover and amazingly enough he does beautiful animal portraits. **Bonus- his shop is beautiful and comfortable!

    Need an extremely talented tattoo artist? Brandon Lian at Red Hot Tattoo is your guy. His artistry is flawless. He does such beautiful, clean work, and he's all-around a super nice person. His shop has a cool, laid back vibe. Super fun place to spend the afternoon. Thank you, Brandon!!!

    This was my second time getting a tattoo here. Mike is wonderful and so gentle. The whole vibe here is awesome The tattoo on the back of my neck they seem somewhat simplistic but the design and the lettering has deep meaning personally to me and once I explained that to Mike he got it spot on

    Brandon is awesome. His shop is very clean, his work is amazing and his prices are very fair. My friends have gotten work done by Brandon over many years and had referred me to him. Within the past 2-3 months I already got two tattoos done by him and have another appointment booked for next month. I love his work and completely trust him with all my tattoos going forward. He is also really laid back and extremely professional. I highly recommend.

    Came here not expecting to walk out with ink but here it is. Fresh and forever…read more It was my bad, I came in ill prepared but luckily they were able to accommodate and worked out the kinks of my design. Took 2 hours, from start to finish. I've only been to.. 3 tattoo shops and this one is by far the best. But they were over a decade ago so sanitary standards have changed. The whole place is inside a cozy little home, converted into a designer place of business. I love it. Adorable. Jimi was there with his girlfriend, also adorable couple and very well mannered. Mine only had 3 colors, black, red and dots of white all in texts. Came out exactly like what I provided. Jimi has a very cool style, Japanese mixed with Chinese, but also versatile. Love his work on the wall. The response time on yelp is really fast. Either Jimi or Jude. And you'll get an appointment and seen as scheduled. If I had social media they'd be tagged. And so far my arm feels very normal and the colors are vibrant.

    I found Jimmy's work through Instagram one day while scrolling through my discover feed. I'm not…read moresure why, but I instantly fell in love with it. His work is very delicate and detailed. His style is very interesting, the shading is always soft and beautiful and he puts a lot of emphasis on different and varying line weights in order to make beautiful, clean linework that flows with every piece he does. He definitely has his own distinct art style. Every piece you request from Jimmy is a unique, custom depiction of what you want in his very own style. He takes lots of time to create and draw up something original for every one of his clients, and I love how he always puts his own artistic twist to your ideas. The piece I got from him was an Alolan Ninetales from Pokemon with red kitsune markings and a chrysanthemum flower. I was blown away by the design. It was very different from what I envisioned but not at all in a bad way at all. If anything I think what he came up was actually cooler, better and more unique than what I expected (and I already expected a lot seeing his work before since he is so good at what he does!) The piece took 2 sessions. Jimmy really takes his time to make the details of the piece look nice. Both times I flew from NorCal to SoCal and it was well worth it. He is also very light-handed so it was not very painful at all (only towards the end, since I'm not good at dealing with long sessions but that's a me-thing). He was very funny, and made me feel very comfortable and chill during both appointments. I would definitely recommend Jimmy for his artistic creativity, dedication and time creative custom work for all his clients!

    Had a positive experience with piercing services here. I called an hour in advance to see if they…read moretook walkins & they did. The piercer was really professional & so sweet! I had to fill out a form & bring an ID before seeing her. Initially went in to re-pierce my left lobe because I had believed it closed up years ago because I had a hard time putting in any earring into it & I have a history of sensitive ears. The piercer did her due diligence & checked & turns out it never closed oops LOL but she was so nice & helpful & told me its best to try putting it on from the back instead. She also replaced one earring from my other piercings because i wanted a flatback instead of butterfly for easier cleaning. I brought earrings to put on & she cleaned my piercings & put them on for me. I ended up deciding to get another lobe piercing anyways since I made the drive here! She made sure to double check with me the placement was what I wanted & made sure it was even to my other ear piercings. What I really liked about this place was that they let me bring in my own earrings, I noticed most places don't & require you to buy their own jewelry. Overall I would come back again. She let me ask a bunch of questions & was very thorough with the aftercare instructions. I liked how she threw in a little goodie bag with care solution for my piercings & cute sticker & goodies! I would come back for more piercings once I'm ready !

    Where do I start? I've always wanted some art on my body but was always hesitant and intimidated…read moredue to a previous experience at another shop where I was basically ignored and made to feel dumb for asking questions, especially since it was going to be my first tattoo. A close friend recommended Jesus and the Mezink shop, so I decided to take a chance. Man, best decision by far. Jesus was my artist and did an outstanding job of walking me through the process and answering all my questions in full detail while making me feel very comfortable. Yesterday, I had my first session for my first tattoo, and what an amazing experience it was. As soon as you walk into the shop, you are greeted immediately with the best customer service you could ask for. The shop was spotless, and the environment was outstanding. The one thing I loved the most about this experience was that at no point was Jesus pushy or rushed. Instead, he patiently walked me through the sketches and threw out some incredible ideas. Ultimately, we agreed on the piece, and six hours later, I am one happy customer. We still have another six hours in our next session, but I already love the piece. This guy is truly gifted! One of the most humble guys I have met, he is all about the business and providing proper customer service. My piece is not even finished, and I already booked another appointment for my next piece. I normally do not write reviews much, but I wanted to share my positive experience for someone who might have had a similar experience to mine. This is the place to come to get some amazing work and be heard on what you want.

I know the things to look for and the shop was clean. What was weird was that it was pretty dead for a Friday the 13th. I was the only person in there for that. One person who works there was actually getting work done. My appointment time came and he stopped his work to help get me set up and paperwork filled out. It took the artist awhile to get everything set up because she had been tattooing the other staff member. The tattoo itself is nice. The lines are good and the work is healing nicely. Where things are lacking is definitely in customer service and interaction. There was a language barrier for sure, which made it difficult. The person who did my tattoo hardly spoke English, so another person at the shop had to translate for me. I don't think I would necessarily come in to this shop again. It just wasn't very welcoming and although the work is nice, it's just not the vibe for me.
