This was my third time visiting the Baron Art location in Orange, but I booked with MJ this time because I was specifically looking for her specialty in abstract ink wash brushstroke styles. From the very first message, the entire experience was incredibly smooth and pleasant. MJ was highly communicative leading up to our appointment date. I had a lot of ideas, and she was extremely patient and accommodating as we went back and forth on styles. She even had me come in for a quick, in-person consultation beforehand, which was fantastic because it made collaborating and aligning our visions face-to-face so much easier. On the day of the session, the process was amazing. MJ constantly checked in to ensure I was comfortable. She has a remarkably light hand, there were moments where it felt like nothing at all. I highly recommend MJ, especially if you are looking for traditional abstract brushstroke work, though her talent and professionalism make it clear she can adapt to whatever style you throw her way. She completely exceeded my expectations! read more

Huge thank you to David for adding to my canvas! The piece he did was actually my biggest and he told me that it was his biggest piece as well. I've been following a few of the Baron artists on instagram for a while. I really like most their style is fine line. I found David and really liked his style of gentle smoke and transitions. It was easy to book with him through their website link. David's a bit shy but when I came for my appointment, we worked together to lock in the final design. It was a smooth session. The studio is very open and close to other chairs so I appreciate that he had a screen set up to make our session more private since the piece was in my upper thigh. He provided a complimentary first touch up. read more

You are never too old for piercings (or tattoos). My daughter and I came to get piercings today at Baron Studio, and what a nice studio! The place is clean and well managed, but still has a spunky little vibe. The workers here are quick, professional and friendly. Meg was our piercer, and she did an excellent job. I got my nose pierced, and the pain was minimal. They also offer student discount for students, which is nice. From making the appointment, to being greeted with thorough explanation, and the piercing itself, I am very pleased. I would recommend others to come get piercings (or tattoos) here. read more

I will forever support Baron Art Tattoo & Piercing Studio, & only recently learned there are multiple locations. This review is for piercings. Short summary: Jocelyn pierced my septum; told me it was deviated but she'd pierce it in a way that my jewelry wouldn't be crooked; barbell was $19; extremely professional place; came in as a walk-in. Cost of service is as expected & cost of jewelry ranges dramatically from $19 titanium barbell to several hundreds for the gold selections. Story time: I took the exhausting MCAT (!!!!!!!) a few miles from this location. My present to myself for enduring a 7.5 hour exam was going to be a septum piercing, & I was overjoyed that Baron was nearby. I arrived as a walk-in & was seen shortly after filling out a form. The employees let me charge my dead phone behind the counter. Jocelyn was my piercer & was incredible. Her own piercings are excellently curated (as in they have a complementary aesthetic/theme). She told me I had a deviated septum (fun fact to learn about yourself) & she would pierce it in a way that my jewelry will sit evenly. Piercing was sanitary, quick, and lasted maybe 10 mins at most. She taught me how to flip the barbell up for work purposes (so cool that I have a secret piercing, haha). A month later, it's doing absolutely great & I haven't had any issues whatsoever. I took several of the tattoo artists' business cards bc their work is absolutely beautiful. You can find baron artists by searching "baron" on Instagram and a ton of accounts will come up that belong to the tattoo artists & state in the bio which location they work at. I trusted Baron in Long Beach with 2 of my tattoos, & now this location for my new favourite piercing :))) Thank you SO much Baron art for always being kind, professional, clean, hygienic, and for having a wonderful ambiance. Exactly what you'd want from a piercing & tattoo parlor. read more

Came to Anaheim for a last minute trip and was lightweight browsing the idea of getting a tattoo. I happen to find this place on Yelp and I like that the website has the flash tattoos on the site and a good amount to choose from at that. Found a few that I liked and went in to get one done. Immediately felt good vibes from the place and was greeted as soon as I entered by MJ. She is the one who did my tattoo and from start to finish it was about 30-45:minutes. It takes alot for me to feel like I get good vibes from someone and I felt like she did a good job. The location was super clean and professional looking. I'm sure this is a respect thing for other artists, but the one I wanted, the artist wasn't there and she woman at the front said artists prefer to not do work from other artists, which I get and it saved me a few hundred from the one I originally wanted. Next time I'm in the area I'm sure I'll come back for something small. Def recommend and thank you MJ! read more

This review is for Lucy! Lucy did an amazing job being communicative, attentive, and accommodating with every issue and need. Even through a lengthy and indecisive process, she did a fantastic job being reassuring and helpful every step of the way. Tattoo itself was perfect! She was able to work through last minute adjustments and did an overall phenomenal job with the artwork. Would highly recommend, and would absolutely work with her again. The place itself was okay. Clean and whatnot, nothing too special. read more

Got my lobes and 1 helix done by Jocelyn. She was very nice, sanitary and took her time to explain everything. I will continue to go back.

Amazing tattoo shop! Everyone there is extremely skilled and they have a variety of different styles depending on what you need. I've been tattooed twice by John and he is a top of the line artist. The atmosphere is calm, clean, and professional. read more

All my daughter wanted for her 6th birthday was to get her ears pierced! About 3 years ago I had gone to a different place that had a sign saying 6 was their age minimum, and I had vowed to take her there as soon as she was old enough. We got to that place at opening and were told the minimum age was 7....which is not what anything online says. Disappointed, I frantically searched on Yelp to find another place that will take a 6 year old. I found Baron, which conveniently is located in an area we are very familiar with! I gave them a call to be sure we could bring her in and see what else was needed. They confirmed they could, and I would need basically proof of guardianship and proof of her age. We had a picture of her birth certificate and a screenshot of her school profile with her picture. When we arrived, we were greeted by Megan. She was warm and friendly and explained everything to us, and had me fill out a waiver for my daughter. Inside the store was small but they have several tattooing stations and a few people inside were getting tattoos. While we waited, we looked at earrings and Megan showed us the recommended choices for kids' studs. My daughter picked a cute pair of little light pink earrings. The jewelry is priced per piece, and it doesn't seem there is any discount for buying multiples. A deal on double piercings (like a buy one, get one discounted) when buying 2 identical pieces would be a nice idea. But we picked what she wanted and waited a few minutes to be called back for the piercing. After a few minutes, Megan and another employee (I cannot remember her name unfortunately) called us into a piercing room and were so kind and walked my daughter through every step of the process. The whole thing just took a short time and before we knew it she was done! They did an excellent job and my daughter didn't even cry. It was a bit expensive, but they gave a little discount for Mothers Day. Still, they did a great job and this morning the piercings look great and my daughter said they dont hurt. I'm expecting an easy healing process! Thank you for doing such a nice job and being so great with my daughter when she was nervous (but excited). read more

Got my second helix piercing here! Very good service and they always give great advice on the healing process

Love this studio! They always do a great job and do the session so fast and efficiently.

I can't recommend Ray enough! I came to her with an old rose ankle tattoo that had lost its color, and she designed a beautiful Hawaiian floral cover-up that I absolutely love. From our first message, she was professional and very easy to work with. She really took the time to understand what I was looking for and executed it perfectly. If you want an artist who is as professional as she is talented, Ray is the one! read more

my friends and i booked an appointment for 8 total piercings and the check-in process was very smooth and organized. our piercer megan was very professional and sweet, and i appreciated how she walked me through the piercing process as it occurred to make the process smoother. the jewelry selection is HUGE. the photos attached are 2 boards of a whole display box AND cabinet. everything is hypoallergenic to prevent ear infections, and the prices range from $10 to $200. we all appreciated the price range and the variety that baron offers. you'll find something for everyone here! overall, the store looked extremely clean, well-lit, and spacious. parking was easy to find, and there's chairs and water in the reception area for customer use. piercing is done in a separate room to prevent contamination and the rest of the store space is used for tattooing. i would definitely come back here for more piercings or for tattoos read more

I normally don't leave negative reviews, but my experience with John at this shop was unacceptable and needs to be shared. I had three separate appointments with him, and he was late every single time--30 minutes late to my first tattoo appointment, 20 minutes late to my consultation, and an hour and 20 minutes late to my most recent tattoo appointment. For my second tattoo, he promised to send me the mock design three days before the appointment. Instead, he didn't send anything until 6pm the night before my 8am session--and what he sent wasn't even a real tattoo design. It was an AI-generated placeholder, not something he actually designed or prepared. The repeated lateness, lack of professionalism, and the last-minute AI mock-up made the whole process incredibly frustrating. I ultimately chose not to move forward with him because I didn't feel comfortable or confident in his reliability. I hope the shop addresses this, because no client should have to deal with this level of unprofessional behavior. read more

This positive review for John. I couldn't be happier with my new tattoo done by this amazing artist! From the very first consultation to the final touch-up, the entire experience was professional, comfortable, and stress‑free. The artist took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, offered great suggestions, and turned my idea into a design that was even better than I imagined. The linework is clean, precise, and super detailed; the shading is smooth and natural, and the overall composition is perfect. During the session, the artist was gentle, patient, and checked in on me regularly to make sure I was okay. The studio was clean, hygienic, and had a really relaxed atmosphere. I'm absolutely in love with the result. It's beautiful, meaningful, and done with so much skill. I highly recommend this artist to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and caring tattooist. I will definitely be coming back for my next piece! read more

I tried three other piercing shops before finding baron. I was looking to get my belly button pierced, but did not want a huge chunky belly button ring that I have to keep it for nine months. After having some horrible customer service experiences at other piercing shops, I was so happy when I walked into this place and it was so clean and inviting, and the staff is all so friendly! They have so much jewelry to choose from and the piercer helped me pick a smaller style of jewelry for my smaller naval, I've had my piercing for about two weeks and the healing is going great. It was such a quick and surprisingly painless experience. I really can't recommend this place enough! read more

I got my second lobe piercing done here in late December. I just went in today to get my piercings downsized. Initially, I was really scared to get a second lobe piercing because i was worried it would hurt, however, my piercer helped me relax and feel comfortable. The piercing overall didn't hurt and she thoroughly explained the aftercare and what I need to do to make sure my piercings heal properly. The place is also very clean and everyone I've met there has been extremely friendly. Overall, I would recommend going to this place if you're looking into getting your piercings done here! read more

This is my second time at Baron Art for piercings. The first time I got pierced here was with Iris and the second time was with Jocelyn. Both were great, and both times they helped both me and my friend stay calm and relaxed during the entire process. This time my friend and I decided to get piercings together. Originally we walked in on a Sunday morning but the wait would've been 2 hrs long. So we decided to make an appointment for the following Monday at 7PM. Originally only my friend had an appointment, but once I saw the spider earring I impulsively decided to get a piercing as well. They were able to squeeze me in right after my friend and we were out of there in basically 30 mins. Overall although it is a bit pricier than other places I've gotten pierced at, I would come again for the cleanliness, quality, and variety of piercings and earrings available. read more

I love coming to Baron for my piercings needs but today I just felt as though the customer service wasn't the greatest. The online website has piercing hours shown as mon-thurs and fri-sun and walk ins are welcome so I assumed a piercer would be on location during these hours. To be sure I called in but no reply, but I understood they may be busy so I went in person to try to do a walk in. Coming in there wasn't anyone on reception and there was a bit of a line forming. It didn't look like a piercer was in but I wasn't sure if that was the case or if they were on break. Either way no communication from anyone or artists about the line of people forming. I decided to wait and see in case the piercer was on break but no one even artists who weren't working didn't acknowledge anyone in the queue. I eventually left after realizing none of the artists were going to handle the customer service which is very confusing as a former apprentice. I understand artists are busy or in the zone when working but letting people sit and waste time when they could simple say a piercer isn't there or will be back would be appreciated for others time. read more

Made an appt on the whim with my friend for the next day and we were both so excited to finally get our noses pierced. We met with Meg and she took us over to all the earrings and explained the whole process to us. I've gotten my nose pierced back in 2019 but took it out in 2020. I've also gotten a few tattoos with baron art but not this location. This location is in a small plaza and there's tons of parking. Its very cute and bright inside - which is totally different from the el monte location that i remember lol. Meg took us into the back room and went through some more things and before you know it, we were both done. She was so nice, patient and very detailed with all her instructions. Def reccomend! Thanks Meg! read more

I absolutely love this place!! It's become my go to spot for both piercings and tattoos. The shop itself is very clean and comfortable.

There's plenty of options for jewelry, I went with this cute heart. Highly recommend coming here!! read more

baron art tattoo & piercing studio is honestly such a gem. the staff here are super friendly and welcoming, and they always take time to go over everything carefully so you feel comfortable the whole time. i've only been here twice and both times were walk-ins, but they were super accommodating and never made me feel rushed. the first time, i got my tongue pierced here and was really nervous, but they walked me through every step and made the whole thing feel easy. it didn't even hurt that much and the process was so smooth. the second time i came back for a tattoo, and again it went really well. the artist was super gentle, kept checking on me, and made sure i was doing okay the whole time. the pain wasn't bad at all, and they even offered a free touch-up within the next few months which i thought was really thoughtful. both the piercing and tattoo healed really well, especially with all the aftercare info they gave me. the prices are really affordable for the quality of service you're getting, and the studio itself is super super clean and modern. highly recommend this spot whether it's your first time or you're just looking for a new studio! read more

We had come in half an hour early before our appointment as the place opened but they were quick to help us get checked in until our artist was ready. When our artist arrived, he set up swiftly and confirmed our designs and asked us about the sizes and prepared the stencils as needed. He was super kind and we felt no hesitation asking for any changes or adjustments. The entire process was smooth and comfortable, with all cleanliness precautions taken. The prices were very reasonable for our tattoos which is much better than the last place I got a tattoo at which was much appreciated. The interior is really nice and clean as well. They have little hooks for purses on the wall which I found really cute, too. They offer piercings here in addition to the tattoos. I'd definitely choose Baron as a first choice for any future tattoos. read more

Jocelyn is amazing! She is very knowledgeable, down to earth and knows what she is doing and talking about. She makes sure that you leave happy with the service rendered. I'm going back for more piercings and she is worth the drive to the OC. Front desk staff is very welcoming as well. read more

Everyone was very nice. Oliver our piercer explained the process and did the piercing fast and pretty painless.

I reached out in late April to make an appointment for July. I picked an artist (Eva), sent in reference photos, and provided a description of what I wanted. With that information, I was given a quote for my 1.5"-2" tattoo. By the beginning of May, my appointment was secured with a $60 deposit. With the confirmation of my deposit being received and my appointment being set up, I was advised "please contact us 3-4 days before your appointment date, if the sketch is ready from the artist, we will send it to you to check. If your design is a portrait, lettering, or same as reference photo, then there will be no design provided since it will be directly used as a stencil." (This is word for word and copy and pasted from the email!) I had an appointment for 07/29. Baron art reached out to me on 07/25 to confirm via email, and I confirmed and asked for my sketch. I followed up again on 07/28 for the sketch. Ghosted -- no sketch........ On my tattoo day, I came in on time and waited around 15 mins for Eva to set up. I feel like she should have been set up already knowing she had an appointment (especially since I booked a few months in advance). What was frustrating was that she did not provide a sketch, so she was doing it on the spot. She didn't even read the description of what I wanted, so we kept on making changes to her sketch and it got to the point that instead of going to her station to sketch my tattoo, she just sat next to me in the waiting area to sketch. It was over 1 hour after my appointment time to actually start the tattoo. This could have been prevent had I was provided a sketch as ADVISED and REQUESTED (I requested twice). If I was provided a sketch, changes could have been made in advance and when I came in for my appointment, it would just come down to sizing. In the appointment confirmation it was advised that no guests were allowed, but plenty of other people were coming in and had multiple guests. Interesting. I made my friends wait in the parking lot, and had I know it was ok I would have told them to come inside.... They also said masks required but I saw plenty of customers without. Just know that nothing is enforced. My tattoo itself took around 30 mins. It came out nice, but since it is fine line, I do need a touch up as I started seeing uneven ink as it healed. I flew in from NorCal for Baron Art and Eva, but I don't really feel like I was a valued client. 0 conversation. No "how are you?" or "is this your first tattoo?" so customer service wasn't there in the slightest. It was literally a silent transaction. No thank you for coming or anything. I did appreciate their healing method, which is Second Skin. It is a game changer for tattoo healing, so that was a nice experience. Overall, meh experience. I have a few months to return for a free touchup, but I guess it depends on my schedule and flight prices. I don't think I'd return for other pieces considering how lacking the customer service and experience was. read more

This negative review is specifically for John, however, after reading some of the other negative reviews, it sounds like there may be a pattern at this shop... I can neither confirm nor deny this. I believe there's a behavioral pattern with John though. George W.'s review on 11/20/25 regarding their experience with John gave me the confidence to make the decision to cancel my appointment with John and go with my gut feeling. Always go with your gut feeling, especially if it's gnawing at you more than once! TL;DR: Skill wise, John is great. I had a custom flash tattoo that he inked on me and his work was clean and crisp. The shop recommended him as one of their artists that specialized in single needle, a very precise type of fine line tattoo-ing. However, his custom tattoo design process = completely unprofessional, lazy, and unethical. Does not listen to client. --- I've been to a fair share of tattoo artists and I've never experienced one quite like John. The entire design process for my custom tattoo with him was completely unprofessional and incredibly frustrating. I tend to give benefit of the doubt because I know art takes time and tattoo-ing is a laborious yet skillful job. However, there were red flags from day one. I verbally described what I wanted to him in-person and showed him reference photos = we scheduled a date to get the work done. Leading up to day of the appointment, I hear nothing from him about a draft. I've worked with artists who like to design day-of so I assume that's what we were doing and took time off work to spend the afternoon with him...yet to my disappointment, when I arrived, he showed me 2 finalized options and told me to pick. The 2 designs he made definitely felt AI-generated and nothing near what I described to him. There's also a language barrier between us, however, he made it seem like he understood what I wanted. At this point I wasn't sure if it was the language barrier or a lack of experience that made him think it was ok to provide me a final design the day of our appointment. He said we had to reschedule so he can re-design what I wanted (our 2nd verbal convo)... I was very annoyed, but again, tried to give grace. What if I had driven from LA or SD, let alone taking time off work, to this appointment? Completely unacceptable. We rescheduled for a week later on a workday (so yes I had to take time off work again) and I asked him to please send me the drafts beforehand for review/feedback. He said he would. A couple days passed and I had to reach out for the draft. What he provided was again not what I asked for and looked like he AI-generated it last minute. At that point, I had described it to him 2 different ways in-person and showed him the same reference photos... to my own detriment, I gave grace again. I told him I'd email him a more detailed description of what I wanted with the same reference photos. This time, I added my own AI-generated image to give him an idea of what I wanted exactly because he just wasn't capturing the vision. To my own surprise, the AI platform I used was very good and produced almost exactly what I wanted! When I emailed him these, I said he could use the designs as a template since it was exactly what I wanted, but because it was AI it needed to be cleaned up with a human touch. 1-2 days before our appointment, he sends me his new draft via text message and used my AI template, almost exactly... and indirectly claimed it as his own work. It looked like he just put my AI image into his own AI generator and cleaned it up a tiny bit. Using AI and claiming it as your own work is absolutely unethical to me and completely lazy, let alone unprofessional. My partner is a designer and advised that there's no way an artist can provide such a detailed draft in such a quick turnaround time, let alone a "final" draft. I provided feedback to him up to the day before our appointment. The cherry on top was that John had the audacity to tell me this was the final design (after I've given him the same feedback to re-work the design) the night before our appointment!! This is permanent ink on someone...it was unbelievable. I've never worked with an artist as inexperienced and unprofessional as him from start to end. In the end, I went with my gut + counsel from friends to cancel my appointment with him. I had zero confidence and comfort to move forward with him, no matter how much I wanted this design. As the other reviewer mentioned, I really hope the shop addresses this and that this is just a pattern with one of their artist. No client, especially any newbies who don't know any better, should ever have to deal with this level of unprofessional behavior. read more

I got my first tattoo with MJ and she did not disappoint! She was very patient with me during our tattoo consultation since I wanted the design to be perfect. I am looking forward to seeing my tattoo when it's fully healed. And I would come again! :) read more
