DO NOT LET ANDY BRODSKY TATTOO YOU — BEWARE!!!
I am not changing my star rating because my experience @ Kayden Creations with Andy Brodsky as my tattoo artist was a complete nightmare that left me with a horrible tattoo.
Not only Andy was unable to fix his horrible work, he was insistent onto continuing his sloppy needle work making it way worst, he never apologized or offered me a refund for the thousands of dollars I paid him… Shame.
This update is to inform people that Kayden Creations has gone out of business, and moved out of his location on Hollywood Blvd. What a relief, at least Andy won’t ruined anybody else tattoos.

I just had a cover up done by Antony Shank and I can definitely recommend him to you all! I’m super happy with my tattoo, and I’m gonna let Antony do my next cover up to. He is fast, professional and a really nice guy! If you want quality tattoos, he is the man you need!

This shop gave me a tattoo that got severely infected. It was just a small piece that should have been an easy tattoo that took the lady over an hour and a half to do where she overworked it and went far too deep. Now the infection has to be treated with antibiotics in hopes of improving. Do yourself a favor and AVOID this shop as well as all tourist area tattoo shops! For a $ 100 minimum you would think that you would be getting a quality tattoo but NOT HERE!

The best artist in Hollywood, LA. Andy just makes my tattoo experience much more pleasant than any other artist I come across.

Stumbled across this place by accidentally really and now it’s the establishment I will be choosing to finish up my leg sleeve. Anyways Andy is a super cool guy and so is Sam. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for quality work done by true artists, andys son even tattoos and he’s like 13 or something it’s crazy !!

Bok and Andy have both done tattoos on me and I’ve brought a few friends here they’ve all been happy.

Came in today to add some detail to my left arm, thought I’d be there for an hour, two tops. Andy, the owner, ended up giving me five hours! He kept asking if I had more time because he wanted to make everything perfect, I did, and … He did.
My tattoo looks amazing. When it was time to pay he said, «brighten and tightens are always free, for the life of the tattoo!»
Five hours of work by one of of the greatest tattoo artists in the world, for free??? That’s Andy. Thanks dude, you rock!
PS — I gave him a fat tip and had to nearly fight him to take it.

Do NOT get your tattoo done by Andy! I wish i could’ve put –5 stars. He is a TERRIBLE ‘artist’.He talks a big game but he is no good at all. I went to get a simple design on my arm. Something that would last around 2 – 3 hours the most. But this guy would not shut up! He talked & talked & talked! That really kept him from finishing up my tattoo. After 6 hours of pain, he was finally done. I was utterly disappointed. You have no idea how much I regret getting that tattoo. His lines where super sloppy, the shading was uneven, he was shaking, he went so deep into my skin that the needle tore into my muscle. The ink he used looked like it was super old. Overall, he ruined my tattoo & wasted a lot my money. Read this before you even think of getting a tattoo from Andy! Worst exprecience ever!

I got a sleeve from Andy, because the colors in his book were amazing, and spent $ 2,500 but Andy cancelled my last Appointment and never rescheduled. He also said that the work was guaranteed with free touch ups for life, but when I went in for a touch up 3 years later, he said a touch up would be $ 200. So I went somewhere else. My tattoo is ok but not what I hoped for, Andy just wasn’t into it in my case. I always got the impression that I was taking up time he’d rather spend doing something else. He has done better work on other clients, but I wish Bok had done my tattoo… as others have mentioned, tattoos are forever and my entire arm is a reminder of my unfortunate experience with Andy.

Have gotten 2 tattoos here both cover ups and I absolutely love them! Andy and Bok are the best tattoo artist’s in the business today! The thing that really impresses is that unlike other shops there is ACTUAL ARTWORK on the walls and not just a bunch of flash art shows how dedicated to art they are!

writing this review to offset the negative one below. ive been to a lot of shops, conventions, know a lot of artists and this is not a good shop, its a *great* shop. solid crew working there, friendly and great artists. easily the best shop on hollywood blvd and one of the best in hollywood.

Bok does amazing work. Takes his time, and is great to chat with about comics, conspiracies, and modern science. His style is unique, and he takes pride in his work. He’s been very open to my ideas, and build on them. When I shot down a few of his ideas, he didn’t take it personally, and came back with something stronger. I highly recommend bok.

expensive at first glance, but after you experience the professionalism and intricacy that goes into every piece they do, you agree that it is worth every penny. Bok is the man, cant wait to go back for another session. Totally humble, nice guys. Wait till Andy’s son Kayden gets in there and starts tatting! Hes only 9 and already tattooed his dad! haha

I got my first tat from Bok at Kayden. It is totally a piece of art and far from the typical looking tat. Bok was a perfectionist and was an artist before doing tats and it shows. His tats are true works of art.
He was patient and drew a few sketches until I was comfortable with the look of it.

I have bin looking far and near for the right tattoo shop. I have found it.
I was looking for an artist who would understand my love of the old west.
Bok was my chosen artist for my tattoo. The work on my legs is finished
and it is just amazing! The detail is astounding! The color is beautiful! and the work is guaranteed for LIFE. I was very impressed with the quality of his work.
We are now working on a new project, my left arm. I am exited to go into my next session, it’s already looking awesome. Hollywood has many tattoo shops, but if you are looking for something special, Kayden Creations is the place for your next tattoo
Kayden Creations is not just your average tattoo shop, it is an art gallery.

I went and got my first tat here awsome place! The peeps are nice. There reasonable if your reasonable. Ask for Gina she is good, open minded and sweet. Definetly a customer now. Nor stuck up at all. This place is all about art.

Do not go to this place!
I spent 10 hours getting a tattoo that should normally only take around 3. I have 25 + tattoos so i usually have a good estimate on how long a tat should take. The tattoo artist was amazingly slow. I had 2 go back 3 times and my tattoo is only 65% finished. I thought we were done last session but guess what. The colors they used at my last session mysteriously vanished. mind boggling. The girl that tatted me up must of been using ink from 1986 cuz it did not stay inside my skin at all. DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE! DO NOT!!!
