They have been in business for over 20 years and all their artists are professionally licensed. You can make an appointment or walk in. I was a walk in and I was helped by Marisa and Nicolette. They were both friendly and helpful. The vibe of the business was very relaxed. I picked out my new hoop, had it placed in my ear and was out the door in about thirty minutes. Total cost was $80 as I selected a gold hoop for my ear. I was pleased with my purchase and service and would return here for future piercings.

It took a bit to get an appointment because she's that awesome and yes, that busy. So, plan ahead. Think about your activity and the weather. I was traveling in December and knew I didn't want to focus on new brow care while traveling. Summer wasn't good me for either because ....sun! I arrived on time and Michelle was waiting in the shop. A nice shop she shares with her husband who's also a local tattoo artist. Soon to be in her own new joint though... I've heard. First off is paperwork. It's fast, legal eagle stuff. She takes some time to explain the process. Then it's lie down and left the drawing begin. She drew out a shape she felt matched my face shape etc. She will show you so you can say yay or nay. I said yay. Then it's down to business. First a topical pain cream so you don't feel much. She goes over each brow three times with color. I did not see the tool used but it lays color onto brows, and into the skin. These are my layman's terms! It was pain free for me (except for the plucking part, which I find funny). You can hear skin pulling or scratching as she moves along. I felt very little pain during the process and even later in the day just a little pain was present. The end result was soooo worth the time and investment in myself. I go back soon for my 6 week touch up. People definitely noticed the change and many are asking for her information. Overall fantastic experience. If you are on the fence, pull the trigger you won't be sorry. Using Michelle's photo of my before and my after shots.

Just wanted to get something done. Looked through Woods' flash book and went with a little snake guy. He decided he wanted to draw it on, rather than using the flash, so it would fit the spot we were putting it in better. From start to finish it took a little over an hour. Woods was so nice and professional. The other two guys there were helping other customers as they came in. Also super nice and helpful. The shop is beautiful, with tons of natural lighting. This is by far one of the best shops I've been to in the many years I've been getting tattooed. 100% plan on making my way from the bay to get another tattoo from the guys here again.

I came in assuming he'd work with me to fix it, gasses me up like it's good. First words out his mouth is 40$ or he won't even begin to sketch something up. Keep in mind he's the one I already paid, an the one who messed up the placement. I mean the overall tattoo of these flowers is pretty dogsht, not the kinda creative art you'd expect from someone in this line of work. I was giving him the benefit of the doubt to have a 2cnd shot. But I'm not after this pridefullness. Bro wants another grown man to pay him for something he fckd up. Maybe after it's fixed on my skin. Oh and the vibes. Yea he'll smoke pot on the job pretty sure, cause I smelt it. So if you want a guy who's maybe good maybe not then CHUY is the buddy for you. Oh also I DMd him, an this whole thing started cause I drove 40 minutes thinking he understood that if I didn't see what I'd like this time I'd be backing out. Had all the time to tell me it'd be 40$ to start to even try to fix it. Waisted my time, told be when I drove there. I took the bad tattoo on the chin. But this guy fr thinks his time is more important than your time.

The Tattoo shop is clean, the artists are top notch at their specialties , and they attack every session with a plan. My first tattoo from ShifuBlue was a memorial for the man who raised me, to be honest I was forgetting his face, the portrait that I received is the spitting image of the man who raised me and my relatives all get so happy when they see it.

I almost puked when he told me how much it was, especially since I was paying cash I set the money down and walked out the door. I am in the Salon studio business. Even with him quoting me $150+ over the phone. I thought plus + what $? OK ,whatever ,I have to remind myself that the economy is different from a year ago from my last tattoo i.e. the cost. I am an overly generous tipper, so thankfully, I walked in with only a minimal amount of CASH , double the amount quoted because I DID intend on adding a few chochkies....not feeling bad , more feeling bamboozled, about giving him just a $25 tip. I felt bad for 30 seconds before I left. Eeeeesh Lordy this is a shot right to the kooter....lesson learned. Get a $$$ finished* amount ~ before the needle hits the skin. Dang it During the phone call I did ask him what his shop fee was and I was just told for the tattoo,I'm looking at $150 / $175 ... Call me I'll give you my dudes number in Encino, the most epic little shop with a rad vibes and of course, the tattoos are legendary I'm just gonna go on living my best life, but throw caution to the wind and get a solid price . Ps he wrapped my arm and plastic wrap. I usually get the saniderm or the Tagaderm since I am a stylist.

Two Ten is the kind of shop you remember -- real artists, real passion, and an atmosphere that makes you want to come back.
