California Tattoo

These @ss holes like to play games and as usual you are welcomed with a beautiful smile but soon it gets ugly and their actual face appears. They do an OKAY job but of course it does not matter if their service sucks and they play nasty games.
I hate this place which is all about ripping you off.
Not Recommended, and don’t deal with the Short skinny guy with a cap or the other one called V.
This is an honest review by the way.

these basterds sucks big time, they charged me an arm and leg for a tat and whats worse that they didnt want to complete their work and wanted me to pay another 60 on the next day to resume it. I went the next day as agreed but wanted to charge me more so i called the police which came and took care of things the ugly way
just save your time and money and find a reputed shop instead of this shit-​hole which houses only fuckers

I hate this place after they ruined My Tattoo ! They all just care about money
Thomas did my first tattoo he was ok but then it was another one there continue on the o tattooing a little heart next to it, it looked so awful, he even Said IT was hard to Tatto small things When he was doing My Tattoo. I was so chocked When i looked in the mirrow i just wanted to die right there he messed upp the whole Tattoo, all fading and crocked. and now imust do laser removal, tried to contact them but nobody wanted to take responsibility! will let everyone know how unprofessional they are and how they just care about money :/

This place is great! Great piercers and great tattoo artists! So clean, so professional, I love it!

I and a friend of my mine spent the night out in Hollywood and decided to check it out after seeing the stars and the wax museum etc. One of us got a lettering tattoo and the other a ribbon for Auto Immune Disease awareness. John did an awesome job on both of our tattoos!

First piercings ever. This review is a week after I got my ears pierced.
I walked in with my friends to get a standard pair of lobe piercing. It was $ 40 or $ 45 for the pair. I forgot. It was a reasonable price for me to get it done professionally. I signed a little permission/​liability form and paid upfront. The body piercer that made the whole experience awesome was named GUERO. Through the whole process, Guero was thorough with explaining each step he was proceeding and definitely emphasized on being sanitary. The process of the piercing lasted 10 minutes. My ears were marked first, then pierced free-​handed. I didn’t know what type of pain I was going to experience, but the sensation felt like a pinch. No real pain at all. Because this was my first time at any type of body modification, I was glad to feel comfortable from start to finish due to the amazing customer service and professionalism of Guero’s. The session ended on a note of how to maintain the piercings. It was perfect.

Excellent getting tats. By Jonathan I would refer him and great price … Walk in welcome

I recommend Tattoo Artist Jonathan Lopez, he’s a great artist, very professional, great price, and clean environment…

I randomly wanted a tattoo so I got one. I went to a tattoo shop before I went here. The artist at the other shop was trying to convince me to not get what I wanted so I left. I went here instead. Thomas gave me exactly what I wanted. He was super chill and made a point to show me that everything was clean and sterile. Planning on going back to get something else done.

3 weeks ago got a dermal piercing, seemed to heal fast. It never set right. Had it removed tonight at a reputable place, and they told me that it was cheap jewelry, and I completely agree, as I have had many piercings in the past. Do your research before you get any body piercing, and I suggest to find another place.

I hate this place with a passion. Cesar is a straight money honey prick. I got a tattoo by Johnny Tattz — he messed up the quarter sleeve (looks like a little kid drew it) and said final touches would be free. The thing is he does not work there anymore & the shop does not want to take responsibility because they consider the artists there, «independent contractors «(my lawyer is going to have fun with this, lol). Also, got a piercing there — the metal part of the ring was sticking out of my nose so I went back to get it adjusted. They made me pay for everything all over again ! I hope this shithole gets vandalised or burnt down soon. The ceiling has mold and looks like it’s going to collapse. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THESE PEOPLE or get ink on Hollywood Blvd. look for artist in WEHO or on Sunset Blvd, these people are money-​hungry scumbags

Came in with something in mind,… Explained to Carlos and he drew exactly how I had it in mind!
Carlos did my first tattoo today and I love it… Definitely will be coming back for more

Really nice people. I was in and out in a few moments without an appointment. I’d go back again.

These guys are a bit overpriced for being a tattoo parlor/​smoke shop/​novelty shop. The artists are good and have a light touch, I just wish the shop owner didn’t take such a big cut (hence the high prices) Thomas did a small piece for me as a walk-​in and he did a great job.

TY to Scribbles & Seven (last year) scribbles did an awesome scripture free hand !!! Will be back to see u girl !!

This shop has been here for years and year and years. I remember comin here as a kids with my mom and grandma many times as a kid (kids don’t have no reason to be at a shop in the first place but we sat quietly and waited for the process to be over) and as I got older my mom brought me here to get pierced for a birthday and since then these shops is were I’ve gotten my work done. I’ve recommend this shop to lots of people and will continue doing so… If you’re a jerk they’ll be a jerk… As my mom always said treat people the way they treat you… So don’t go Ito places acting like a jerk and expect to be treated like a princess! Visit Seven on your visit to california tattoo you won’t regret it

Me and my girl got tattoos here last night. Walked in told them what we wanted. We got REASONABLE prices and were totally satisfied.

Nose Ring Review
So I’ve been wanting a nose ring since I was like 21 and finally decided to do it!!!
I am deathly afraid of needles and only decided to go for it bc my boyfriend was w me. So after discussing pricing and deciding on the jewels, I went for it. I signed a very blurry statement, sat down and before I knew it, it was all over. I literally okayed the exact spot of the piercing and then next thing I know, w/​out warning I was done. I actually appreciated the quickness and no warning because again, I am deathly afraid of needles.
I would definitely recommend this place as of now, since it’s only been 5 days, the only thing I was a slight bit disturbed about was the fact that I was not provided with any cleaning solution and instead told what to purchase on my own.

I was out on a Saturday night for my gf’s bachelorette party at a karaōke bar (I’ll write a review on that as well). Drank. Sang. Drank. Danced. Drank. Sang some more. Drank. Ate chicken wings. Paid tab. Left. Decided I was down for a tattoo.
This shop is located in the dingy, loud, busy, drunken, crazy, street of Hollywood blvd. already an interesting night, I figured YOLO.
Met Seven on this particular Saturday night who has done work on my friend before. The trust essentially started there, and also the liquid courage helped! Anyway, had this design idea brewing in my head for some time and went with it. INFINITY SYMBOL WITH MY KIDS NAMES. BAM!
Long story short, I love my new ink. I’m glad to have met Seven. He did an awesome job, I tipped him accordingly as well. New ink is currently healing with a slab of ointment.

I came here to have an artist sketch up something to cover up a tattoo on my hip.
The tattoo artist mentioned a $ 20 deposit was required for him to start on it. I left my number on the receipt and days went by with no call.
After a week I came into the store to ask if the artist had anything done, but the shady guy behind the counter said that artist didn’t work there anymore. He tried to push another artist onto me that was clearly in the middle of doing someone else’s tattoo. Not to mention the guy would have to copy my tattoo again and sketch something up and I’d have to wait again, so I declined his offer.
I asked if since the deposit was for a drawing and the drawing never happened, could I get the deposit back. The guy behind the counter simply walked away. Faking like he was doing stuff around the store trying to avoid me and my girlfriend.
He came back after about 30 seconds and raised his voice and said «I’m going to have to ask you to leave the store». What the hell?!! I was polite the entire conversation and asked an honest question and you tell me to leave?
How shady is this place? About 1 star shady. Don’t trust this place with your dollars.
