Lou’s Tattoos & Body Piercing by Kim

I’ve never received a tattoo from here but Kim is a doll!
All the gentlemen are just that, kind and very respectful. I’ve seen all their work and highly recommend them and Kim is the ONLY one I trust with any of my piercings :)

I love this shop very professional and they do exceptional work. I am very happy with my choice. Thank you Ryan

Kim is an amazing piercer and friendly as could be, she is easy to talk to and is really assuring (which is a great thing to be when your job is poking holes in people)! I had a great experience and got some skillfully placed piercings, I even got a sweet sticker out of the deal :)

I can’t believe I haven’t written a review for this yet. So here’s to adding another 5 star review to Lou’s Tattoos.
How good is Lou’s Tattoos? I FLY in from Washington, D.C. and THEN drive 3 hours to Leemore without blinking an eye just to get inked and then fly out the next day. Seriously, Louis is a top notch artist.
If you look around, you’ll see they adhere to the strict hygiene standards (using multiple caps for colors/​wearing gloves/​clean needles/​etc.) and you can tell they take their craft seriously by all the paintings they do. Even the customer service is awesome. One time, he even opened the shop on a Sunday just to accommodate my schedule.
I get stopped ALL the time by people to compliment my tattoos. The colors they use and artistry pop out like crazy.
I cannot say enough good things. I will continue to make the 6 hour flights and 3 hour drive just come to Lou’s Tattoos. I’ve already logged in around 20 hours at Lou’s and I can’t wait to do it again in a few weeks.

You’d have to be an asshole to not get along with Lou. Dope shop, awesome quality, great atmosphere and even better people. Best experience I’ve had at a shop was here.

If you’re looking for quality artwork this is the place. Lou has been very creative and the fact that I have won numerous tattoo contest tells the story. Several magazine spreads are the icing on the cake. No better place to go in the Central Valley

Best in town! Louis is fucking awesome and is one of the best in the country! I will be back soon!

Best tattoo shop in the Central Valley. I’ve been getting tattooed there for over 5 years and wouldn’t go any where else. They are a custom tattoo shop, so every piece is one of a kind. Don’t waste your time or skin, GO TO LOU’S!

Most creative, knowledgeable tattoo artists in the valley, and far beyond. Love this place and will not get tattoo’ed anywhere else!

Went over the weekend to get my septum pierced while I was visiting my mom, and I must say that Kim is awesome! She made sure everything was how u wanted. I told her I wanted a ring that was small but big enough to see and she got it perfect! She walked me through the whole process and did it fast and safely! I am glad I went to her, I wouldn’t have anyone else do it. And the guys in the shop were so chill and welcoming. I give them an A+++

Great place, The guys are great. Their work is amazing. I have had 4 tatts done here and will go again. I really like this place. I highly recommend it!

I can’t say enough about how impressed I was at the thorough and detailed way that Kim pierced my nose. Honestly, I never knew there was that much consideration involved in getting another hole put in your nose, but I understand why now, and I am oh so grateful.
Kim was very informative on the process of piercing my nose, detailing what she was doing and why at all times, not assuming anything. She examined my nose, both with her fingers, and with a light up my nose, to ensure best placement. She explained everything she was doing, and she very promptly pierced me. It barely bled (even though it hurt like a bitch) and the pain was gone as quickly as the needle was removed. Swelling was minimal and the piercing has healed quickly and without incident. Kim gave me a very beautiful, professional card for aftercare, and encouraged me to come back to the shop to change my jewelry, even if I didn’t purchase it from her.
The shop itself is beautiful and the walls are covered in artwork and flash by Lou, which, I must say, does gorgeous work (as worn by Kim). He seems to center around old-​school, traditional style tattooing, with bold and beautiful colors.
Should I ever feel the need to put another hole in my body, I will most definitely come here. Very smart, concientious, clean and most importantly, confident piercer.

I went here to get a piercing. It was very clean and the piercer, Kim, was awesome and made me feel very comfortable. The tattoo artists that were there were also very friendly. I am definitely going here again!
