Eric, their piercing, runs "Piercing in Action". It's the piercing artist inside the shop. He did my first piercing ever in my helix and it was a beautiful turquoise stone. Really happy with it and he checks in with me to make sure I'm still happy with it and that it heals properly. FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE! read more

My daughter has been asking to get her ears pierced for a long time. I knew I didn't want to go to the mall to get them done. I searched through Yelp and found this place. I texted Simba as stated on the website and he was super quick to reply. Within 45min, I had made an appt, filled out paperwork online and got info from Simba. He was BEYOND thorough at the appointment, told my daughter everything he was doing/going to do where she could understand and was really patient when her anxiety kicked in. The place was SUPER clean, welcoming and chill. I highly highly recommend getting a piercing here with Simba! We were in and out so quick! read more

Action Tattoo - Ear Piercing - Tattoo Near Me - Anaheim, California

I came in wanting an upper lobe and a helix (If that is what it's called) piercing. Simba was friendly, patient, and went over the after care with a lot of details. He's very knowledgeable which made feel more confident in being able to take care of my new piercings. I got both ears pierced. It was pretty quick and painless. On a pain scale for my Upper Lobe I give it a 2/10. For my Helix it was closer to a 3/10. For anyone considering piercings I recommend going to Action Tattoo. read more

Was trying to decide for a long time if I should write this review and after a year of considering, I made the choice to write this review. First, I will just explain what happened as factually as possible. When I first came into the shop, I met Ray Herrera, I explained to him I wanted a touch up on color on a bee tattoo I have. I asked if he wanted to see the original photo of my tattoo and he said no. I booked a time slot with him and left. When I came to my appointment I asked again if he wanted to see the original picture of the bee I used for my tattoo, and he said no. When Ray finished my tattoo, it was a completely new bee in size, shape, and figure. I paid with a 20% tip and left. I called back about a week later to tell him I was unhappy with his work as he gave me a whole new tattoo when I only asked for color touch up. He said he could fix it but that he would charge me full price to fix it. The bee was now too big, and I didn't want the fix to make it any bigger. Honestly, I don't know how he could have fixed it unless he could erase what he first inked. I never went back and started the process of tattoo removal on the bee tattoo he did. These are the facts. Now for my feelings based on what happened. First, shame on me. I should have never booked an appointment with someone who doesn't want to see the original picture of the tattoo at any time beforehand. Second, shame on me again because I didn't look once during the process. Unfortunately, I had full faith in him to just do a color touch up. Third I was SHOCKED to see all the adjustments he had made with ZERO communication. I literally almost cried in his seat as soon as he showed it to me. Beyond that, after I called, he could have cared less that he didn't listen at all to what I wanted. That he had destroyed a tattoo I had in remembrance of my grandmother. He did nothing to resolve the issue besides me paying to start all over with him. It was all a bad situation that left me feeling unheard, not important, and needing tattoo removal which is painful and EXPENSIVE AF. Also, the tattoo he did, did not turn out well. The lines were very strange and blotchy. Please see the before photos of my cute, sweet, feminine bee next to the quarter . Then see the bee Ray did, a whole new bee with a new head , butt, antenna, and ugly bug eyes, very masculine, fuzzy, not crisp lines and faded color... the opposite of the look I had and needed to remember my grandmother. I do not at all recommend Ray Herrera from Action Tattoo in Anaheim . read more

8.19.22: It was a quiet afternoon as my daughter and I strolled in. There were two tattoo artists sketching away at the table, and one piercer who was able to accommodate us on a walk-in. My daughter just turned 17 so as a minor they not only require parental consent, but you have to bring a copy of your child's birth certificate to prove your relationship. I didn't see this as an inconvenience, but instead it was COMFORTING to know that the shop owner takes his business very seriously. For this, A+++++ It was fast, in & out in under 20 mins. My daughter said it was painless (smiley piercing), and BRITTANY had a gentle hand. I met BRIAN, one of the artists, and i'm hoping to have some work done by him in the next couple months. The shop is tidy and organized, and in a clean location. It is tucked away in a shopping plaza, away from the main road, which is nice bc you don't get random people strolling in & out. If you're there it's bc you are having work done and are not there to window shop or be an obnoxious kid who doesn't even have money to afford a double-double with fries next door. A good first time experience overall and i would recommend this shop. Note: California law states no one under age 18 can get a tattoo, regardless of parent consent. If you find a shop in California willing to break the law, that's a big red flag. read more

I got a Friday the 13th tattoo done and I was pleasantly surprised at how well it came out! I was in there for less than an hour, but the artist tattooing me, Brian, didn't feel like he was rushing (definitely efficient). The vibes were great, and I can't wait to come back to get my next tattoo! read more

Just finished my second tattoo in 2 weeks at Action. I have been tattooed all over the country and I can say that this is one of the best shops I have been to. Roger has done all my work and I can't recommend him enough. The shop is immaculate, well lit, super sanitary, and one of the most comfortable places you can get inked. Roger listens to your idea, creates the artwork and works with you to design your ideal tattoo. I will def return to have more work done here Interesting side note, as my most recent tattoo was being done, the stencil became smudged and almost unreadable. Roger, the consummate professional, didn't skip a beat, knew exactly what he wanted to do, and created a perfect tattoo. You need to get Inked by this guy! read more

Nelly!!!!!! She's been my tattoo artist for years now and she never disappoints. She's the person to go above and beyond for you just to make sure that you're satisfied with your tattoo. She seriously has so much talent. Recently I went to her to get a cover up that I stupidly got from another artist. I pretty much gave her an idea and let her take creative freedom. To say that I'm impressed is an understatement. She KILLED it per usual. I get compliments on my tattoo now all the time. If you are looking for one of the best tattoo artists in Orange County...

Don't hesitate to go here. read more

I've never been tattooed here before, but these guys gave me some second skin for free for my new tattoo. That tells me all I need to know about these guys! read more

From the moment I walked in, I was treated with smiles by everyone. I did a walk-in (no appointment scheduled) and Nelly was the artist who helped me. She sketched the names in different sizes until I found the one I was happiest with. She was a great person to talk to and it felt like a great therapy session by the end of it. That explains how comfortable and friendly she was. All of the artists were down-to-earth and humble. There was no ego or bad energy like what I've encountered at other shops. That alone won me over. The conversations were fun and friendly, it made me forgot I was being stabbed by tiny needles for great art. The shop was was extremely clean and organized. They have THE CLEANEST and nicest bathroom I think I've ever been in. It doesn't even look like a tattoo shop when you walk in, the owner outdid himself in decorating and renovating the place. The ceilings are sexy, that's the only way to describe them. The art on the wall is beautiful. It's not just sailor flash art. The huge Frankenstein painting is what caught my eye originally. I'll definitely be coming back often for more great art. The work was spectacular. Their prices were reasonable. Don't forget to tip your artist! Thank you for a great experience during the hardest time in my life. See you all again soon. Cleanliness: 10/10 Friendliness: 10/10 Communication: 10/10 Artist's abilities: 10/10 Great tattoo experience : Priceless. read more

Walked in for a tattoo for my husband after reading the great reviews for this shop. I also walked out with two new piercings. The shop was clean and the artists were extremely professional.

Brian tattooed a mini portrait of my dog on my arm, above her name, which was done by a different artist. This piece of art came out better than I had hoped for. He was able to get a lot of intricate details in it, like her wrinkles, her hair pattern, the ridges on her ears, and her big beautiful eyes. He met my expectations, exceeded them, and then surpassed what I thought was possible in such a small tattoo. I will be forever grateful for this lovely tattoo of my precious baby, Little. Thank you, Brian Vu! Your talent is amazing and you have no clue how many wonderful memories I have tied to the picture we chose. Now I get to look at my baby even when I'm away from her, and I'm already in love with it. I'll be back very soon to get my other dog's portrait tattooed by you as well. Thank you for your kindness, your patience, and your tremendous talent. The shop itself makes you feel like you're somewhere fancy because of how beautifully decorated, modernized, and clean it is. The staff are all friendly and inviting, and it's nothing but good music and good vibes inside. Thank you, Action Tattoo for your hospitality and for hiring staff that is welcoming. See you all again soon! read more

If you are looking for a piercing I highly recommend you go to Action Tattoo and get it done by Simba and here's why. His experience and professionalism reflects his quality of work and like the rest of the staff here he is very kind and genuine. He sets the standard for excellence by the way he takes all precautionary measures for safety to ensure the most sterile, comfortable procedure possible. After the piercing, he spent about 10 minutes educating me about how to care for it in the future by recommending a after care regimen. He was very knowledgeable about the risks and different types of infections and other adverse reactions from not treating the new piercing with care. Simba also took the time out of his busy schedule to talk about aftercare products and was very knowledgeable about them and why they are recommended. I highly recommend Simba with enthusiasm for all your piercing needs. read more
