Konstantin: From Russia With Art!

Best artist by all means !! Working on my 3^rd piece !!
As I like to call him «mad scientist »

I had an amazing experience! I went to get my first tattoo and was nervous, but Konstantin made me feel comfortable until the end. He definitely knew what he was doing and is very professional!

After reading reviews and seeing pictures of his work, I contacted Konstantin about getting my first piece done. And though it was a bit of an odd request (I got a phrase in Bulgarian), he was very professional and thorough and personable throughout the process, from initial phone call, to sketching and sizing and getting the placement perfect. It’s now been two days and it feels completely healed already, and I couldn’t possibly be happier! I will absolutely be back here for future work.

My tattoos from Konstantin are among my favorites collected. He’s got a very light hand and a creative eye that can’t be rivaled.

Simply fantastic experience! Very professional and courteous! K doesn’t just hold the standard, he sets it!

Konstantin is absolutely amazing. I did my first tattoo. We divided it to two sessions, because it is big job. Konstatin is a true artist, he did such a great job. Tattoo looks AMAZING. I was scared at first, but it was pain-​free, which is great, because i am afraid of pain. Kostya, thank you so so so much. You are great!!!

Konstantin was incredible to work with. He is extremely professional, experienced, talented and calming. He has an extremely light hand and I will be going back to him for all of my future pieces. He’s the best!

First tattoo experience with Konstantin & definitely not my last. Like others, I was nervous and he reassured me throughout the consultation & during the tattooing that things would be fine. Not once did I fidget or flinch! He’s so delicate to the touch & knows what you want and how to get it done. He works very efficiently and before you begin, he shows you what he’s using! I’m beyond satisfied with the outcome. I have a low pain tolerance and it really was the artist who calmed me down. 15+ years in experience with tattooing & he does bigger pieces as you can see. I’ll be seeing him soon & HIGHLY recommend him for everyone!

I got my very first tattoo with Konstantin and I couldn’t be more grateful for such professionalism, patience and just a beautiful work all together. I told him what I wanted and he made it even better, but when I saw the results on my skin — it blew my mind completely! I have a very sensitive skin, but to my surprise there was no pain, no redness, nothing got swollen at all! Believe me when I say I am a very picky customer, especially when it has to do with my skin, but when I came to have my first consultation with Konstantin, I new right away that I found my master :) I absolutely love my tattoo and it feels like I’ve always had it! I know for sure I’ll be back for more!!! Thank you very much, Konstantin!

Amazing artist. I’ve gotten 3 tattoos from him and he is amazing! I definitely would recommend him to others and I would definitely come back.
If you are looking for someone to get your tattoo (s) he is the person to see.

Couldn’t have found a better artist for my new amazing poppy tattoo. Konstantin is an amazingly creative dude. He added so much to my original ideas while making sure I was part of the decision making the whole way through. Couldn’t recommend this guy enough, true professional, great pricing, super clean and mellow studio, and most importantly he’s a great artist. Be back soon.

I had an amazing experience with Konstantine. He is an incredible artist with a comfortable and private studio. Couldn’t recommend him more.

Amazing artist! His work is flawless! I am in awe! Konstantin goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable and his technique is perfection. I practically fell asleep while he was working.

I have been looking for the right tattoo artist for a while to do my tattoo. I have been to the best shops in LA and also went to meet referrals from my friends, non of them seemed right. By chance I found Konstantin on Unilocal and read all the reviews, saw his work and just decided to meet him. When I met him at his studio, i knew he was the right one. He was so nice right away, very attentive, and was very professional. I felt comfortable with him right away. We talked about what I wanted and he made it come to life for me. My tattoo came out PERFECT!!! I love it so much!
He is a very talented artist, creative, professional and has exceptional customer service skills, and SOOOO NICE!!! which is very rare in this business. I recommend him to anyone who is looking to do any body art work!!!

Had the best experience ever getting tattooed! Cant wait to get more work done by Kostya. It came out better than one could ever imagine.

I absolutely agree with all the kind things Dame M. had to say about Konstantin. I went to him to get my first tattoo. He is the nicest, sweetest man ever!!!, and an awesome artist! I was nervous and he hand-​held me through the whole thing and was so patient with me. And during, he kept checking in with me to make sure I was doing fine. It didn’t hurt at all.
He loves doing this and obviously takes a lot of pride in his work. From what I’ve seen he is a great tattoo-​er, a great artist, and a great person, which is probably why he has a hoarde of people who continually go back to him to get their tattoos and also consider him a friend.

I have followed Konstantin for years both myself and wife also rock his magnificent art on our sleeve and full back. This guy has a soft hand when it comes to getting tattooed. So check him out and book a time slot for some New Year Ink.

This is the guy you go to if you are ready to graduate off of the flash sheets and into a design you TRULY want; something unique, something incredibly detailed and highly personal. While Konstantin is hands down the best artist in LA for people looking to get their first GOOD tattoo, he is also a favorite to veterans because of his attention to detail, artistic ability, pricing, shop atmosphere, and above all — his personality.
He smashes the stereotype of the intimidating ego-​maniac in a tattoo shop and instead comes across, thoughtful and understanding of EXACTLY what you want. I have 100 hours of his brilliant work on me and have successfully brought in over 10 other clients to him already. They have ALL had the same to say about him. Seriously… this is your guy if you want to get tattooed in Los Angeles, have ZERO regrets afterward and realize that you have some of the best work in the country on your body.

5 Zillion stars!!!
7 years and counting.
A poet of flesh with an unbelievably kind demeanor.
Of the 20 plus tattoos I have, Konstantin is the artist responsible
for about 90% of them. I follow him to wherever he is working.
He has tattooed my family members and all of my friends. He rules.
I stress the word ARTIST. He’s a beautiful painter, photographer, man.
It’s SO rare anymore that people do for the sake of doing. His work is
meaningful to him. He takes great pride and care in embellishing
your flesh. The kind of care and consideration you would want when
it involves permanent ink, that will be with you forever.
During the course of the tattoo he will check in with you about your
level of comfort and pain tolerance. He is not heavy handed at all.
Having tattoos from him that are more than 7 years old, they are still
clear and beautiful. Not muddy or blurred (as is the case with too
much ink, hence my heavy handed remark)
He is an phenomenal tattoo artist, but an even more lovely human being. He’s an old soul, in an town full of poseurs. Authentic.
Don’t be mislead by all this flowery kindness. He also has a wicked
wonderful sense of humor and LOVES a good joke and loves his
black coffee.
From Russia with Art? Yes. But really, from Russia with LOVE.
He genuinely loves what he does and it shows in his work.
Konni there’s still a LOT of space left… See you soon!

The shop was very clean and pleasing to the eye.
Was very impressed with the artist. Will definitely refer friends to the shop. I really appreciate the way Kostantin worked with me until I found exactly what I wanted. Everyone should have such a good tattoo experience. He is very professional. I am very happy with his work.
Thanks ;)
