My husband I wanted to get a couple small tattoos together so we booked appointments with Greg (the owner) and his apprentice, Emma. Emma was really patient doing several attempts to get the placing I wanted. I had originally reached out to her on IG and she responded quickly and was flexible in the scheduling. Greg has done most of my husband's ink so he's always great to work with. I was also happy that while we were figuring out placement Greg gave some pointers that helped us decide the best placement. The shop is clean and there are some well lit spots for taking photos. I love my newest piece and it was small enough that it only took about 20 minutes for the whole thing. Both artists are easy to work with. A customer came in while Greg was still working on my husband and she was a bit demanding in her communication, but Greg was calm and worked with her to schedule and appointment. read more

I found Leo on Instagram and knew he was my artist. I wanted my new tattoo, just my second, to both honor my mom, and to represent my love of Mother Nature. I also wanted a watercolor tattoo. I didn't have an exact idea of what that would be, though, so Leo had me come in for a consult first. He came up with beautiful art to match my vision. I love it so much. I get compliments all the time, and have happily referred Leo. read more

Victory Tattoo - Watercolor tattoo by Leo Salcedo - Tattoo Near Me - West Sacramento, California

I absolutely love this place. Leo is the artist I chose to handle my tattoos, but all of the guys there are very talented and the shop itself has a super welcoming atmosphere. Leo is professional but also makes you feel comfortable. His line work and attention to detail is unmatched. He is also very light handed which is great! I loved my first tattoo from him so much that we've started working on ideas for full sleeves. This T-rex skull is the only tattoo that's been completely finished so far. I'll update this review with all of the beautiful and badass pieces once they have some color to them. read more

Victory Tattoo - T-rex skull with flowers. - Tattoo Near Me - West Sacramento, California

Came here for my 4th tattoo and to say the least, extremely satisfied. Walked in, and was helped right away. Even though he had a client, he did mines beforehand since it was a small simple rose. Sean Kane was the one who did this beautiful piece of work. His work was fast; yet precise, earning him and this tattoo parlor a 5 star rating. I would definitely recommend this place! I will for sure be coming back for more. Only $80 as well!! This is my favorite tattoo parlor :) read more

Victory Tattoo - Tattoo Near Me - West Sacramento, California

All I have to say is I absolutely love my tattoo. Leo really listened to what I wanted and made my original idea even better. He captured everything I wanted from the colors, to the crystals, to the flower details in the moon. He was very nice and didn't have a heavy hand. I honestly didn't feel any pain it was like not even getting a tattoo. I love his attention to detail. Omg I'm just so in love and it's officially my favorite tattoo. I will be coming back soon to get my sage stick!! read more

I went here on Sunday to get my dad's dog tags tattooed on my shoulder. After much deliberation and research, I decided Greg was the guy. He squeezed me in on his day off, and was soooo nice about it. It was my first tattoo, which he understood and treated it as such. He made sure to let me know to tell him if i needed a break. The tattoo itself, came out BEAUTIFULLY. He spent a lot of time drawing it out for me, even before I decided I wanted him to do it. He put in a lot of detail and even had some suggestions to add depth (cuz my idea was soooo simple). It was incredibly reasonable for the size, detail, and color. Only $120! Overall, Greg is AMAZING and if i ever decide to get another tattoo, he'll be the guy. read more

Update: I've been back to see Greg 2 more times and each tattoo was as perfect as th first. He continues to amaze me with his dedication and talent. Update 12/01/2016 I finally allowed Greg to put some of his style into one of my tats. This one is much bigger and been done a million times but I wanted his unique spin on it. He really blew it up this time! His take on the Marine Corps emblem and adding the camo to the Semper Fi motto is really over the top in my opinion. read more

Leo is a stone cold assassin with his gun. He took my art concept and made it his own with some of the most amazing water color work I've ever seen ( I'm the lucky one who gets it on my arm.) He's very chill and the others in the shop are just as into each other's art as they are into their own. Also the shop is kept exceptionally clean and well lit. The folks at Victory Ink are a hidden gem in the valley. In fact I'm flying back out from the Midwest just to visit Leo again. read more

This is the best place to get a tattoo! We stopped in last month to get a coverup on my fiancées tattoo and the work was amazing. Leo was his artist and did outstanding work! He paid attention to every detail and the tattoo came out better than we expected! We made an appointment to come back and get another tattoo yesterday and this time it was my turn. I showed him the design I liked and he matched it perfectly (actually better than the original picture I showed him). This is the only place we'll ever go to get our tattoos. Thanks Leo read more

Greg is a very talented artist. I've had 3 tattoos done here, and every one has been top notch. My first was a full back tat cover up, and Greg went above and beyond to correct another artist's work on my back. My latest tat was very simple, but he still managed to wow me and to fit me into his schedule for a birthday tattoo. I will definitely be back. read more

I had a stupid tattoo on the side of my ribs, just a small heart but wanted the stupid decision covered up. Typically I would have gone to Famous, but since he's working from his house (which is creepy in itself) I decided to give Leo at Victory Ink a chance. Needless to say, I will never, EVER, go back to Famous!! Leo took my walk in, drew up my design in about 15 minutes & asked me to come back around 7-7:30 to do it. I came back around 7 with a friend, they took her walk in as well, and then started mine around 8. Leo made sure I was comfortable on the table - some places have you take your bra off while getting a side piece, but Leo told me to just get comfortable so I didn't have to be exposed to a stranger. Such a gentleman! Rib cage is a painful spot to get a tattoo done, so when I say it hurt, that shit hurt! Most of the lines and shading was bearable, but towards the end it started to get extremely painful by the top of the skull, near my armpit. Leo saw I was in pain and told me, "I'll be done soon, you're a champ, you got this" so I knew I better not break out in any tears... Because I'm a champ. Lol. Love Victory Ink & Leo was such a nice, professional, talented artist! read more

I went to Victory Ink to get a tattoo for my Aunt that passed away and Greg did an amazing job! The shop is clean and everyone that works there is nice. Thinking about getting another tattoo soon and I would definitely go here again. read more

I can't say enough good things about my experience with this shop. The work was reasonably priced and excellent. It was a cover up of an old piece and it looks beautiful. Staff is friendly and mellow. It had been years since my last tattoo and I was getting kind of anxious but they were really patient and nonplussed. I'm going back today for another piece today, can't wait. This is going to be my shop from now on. read more

We saw Greg today he was amazing !!!! Looks great !!! I highly recommend him to anyone !!! Thank you

I only got initials but my experience was great. Called an hour before they closed and they said come on in, time in the chair was 20mins tops fast and easy process, but professional. I love the way my husbands initials came out, & the placement! The artists name is Mario, did exactly what I asked for. Couldn't be happier with this tattoo, thinking of going back to Victory ink for a memorial piece for my Mom. read more

My friend and I would have loved to have actually been able to give a good review of this place but they made that impossible, literally. We walked in, were not acknowledged by the individual chatting it up. We looked at the books for a bit thinking maybe one of the other charming folks would at least see if we needed help, had an appt, wanted a tattoo, or two, but nothing. So, thinking perhaps they were all so swamped with the two people in the shop, 1 actually talking about getting work and who knew who, we sat down to wait. Two people that had been behind the counter walked out, passed where we were sitting near the door, again, nothing. One walked back in, again, nothing. We sat for about 20 mins total and NOTHING. So we decided perhaps they didn't need our business and left. It's a shame because we both wanted a tattoo right then and there and I needed a consult on a full back piece, but they clearly don't need business and are already rolling in the dough. read more

I've been looking for a good place for walk ins since my primary tattoo artist is normally booked up for months and months, and I just wanted 3 really small tattoos. I walked in with my coworker after we got off work, and Sean was amazing at helping us figure out our tattoos and where it would look best. He was super accommodating to any changes I wanted to make with my tattoos, and never made me feel like I was being annoying for asking to change the size. The other guys in the shop also made me feel really comfortable, as I've had bad experiences at other tattoo shops with men making inappropriate comments and acting weird towards me, so the change in atmosphere and attitude was really nice. I got 3 little tattoos by him, and it was literally done in 5 minutes. The price is amazing for the quality you get with these talented guys, and I will most definitely be back for more. Thanks Sean! read more

Great place to get a tattoo. Talented and attentive artists, clean environment. Fun place, reasonable pricing.
