    Tattoos done by Christina Hock
    John Z.

    I've been going to The Dolorosa ever since I moved to LA. Yesterday was my first time at the Echo Park location, for a couple small pieces by Christina. Her work was awesome, as always, and the new place is really nice! Very convenient parking, with no meters, and they're following strict CDC guidelines, which put me at ease. If you're looking to get a high quality tattoo in a cool place, this is the spot!

    I've had the pleasure of having 3 tattoos done by Andrew there so far since November 2020. The shop is all good vibes, very well kept and sanitized (adhering to all Covid-19 regulations) they're pretty good about squeezing walk-ins in, but be kind and make an appointment whenever possible, they are great at getting you in quick....and what can I say about Andrew? Well he's pretty rad! Super talented, passionate about his work and has a very easy going demeanor which makes the whole process pretty great.... check out the work he's done, it speaks for itself

    I have 3 tattoos from Andrew Biddlecome and they all healed beautifully. Andrew is incredibly professional, respectful and kind throughout the entire process. Highly recommend him!

    I gave Alex Bready a general vision of what I was thinking and he came back with something way better than I expected.

    There aren't the words to express just how comfortable and PAINLESS my experience was at the 3rd St…read moreOak and Poppy. Yesterday I got my septum pierced for my birthday. 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!

    The staff here are friendly and welcoming. I'm giving 4 stars for their customer service,…read morecleanliness, and responsiveness. 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.
