    Nooshin S.

    Once again totally impressed and delighted with the results of my tattoo! This time it was Chris who worked on me. It was a line from a Rumi poem and he just did a fantastic job. Thank you!

    I got tattooed yesterday by apprentice Tyler! Shop is extremely clean and beautiful, lots of art work all over the walls. Ambiance was great and music was good. Tyler was very professional and owner Dan Smith was the entire process. Pain was not bad at all and I was given clear aftercare instructions. Highly recommend this shop!! Thank you to everyone at Captured!!

    5 stars for the 5 star experience that you will get if you decide to spend some time at Captured Tattoo! We went in to Captured Tattoo back in December with a concept for Beau, one of the most amazing tattoo artists ever. He was able to take a complicated concept (the blending of 3 heritages) and make it into the most gorgeous art. The process went like this: **We paid $100 as a deposit for a design and described what we wanted via email **We came into the cool, clean shop (more on this later) and Beau showed us a sketch on paper. We had some notes and he went in the back, adjusted and then came back **Then the first session was on. Beau used the sketch as a template for my husband's arm and laid down the main structure in about 3 hours. It looked awesome and before he sent us on our way he was careful to advise about cleaning & care. **Subsequent sessions followed every couple weeks to add shading and texture. **And now it's all done and is the most amazing, intricate, meaningful piece of body art I have ever seen Everyone at the shop is incredibly nice and the store front itself, nestled in the cutest area of old town Tustin is awesome. There is a little bench where I sat while my husband's work was being done on a table in the center of the room and they have a water station. We will be back because the next step is for me to get a smaller version of the inverse to my husband's tattoo...

    I can't say enough good things about this shop and the people who work there, very welcoming and receptive. The shop is spotless and very well taken care of, very hygienic. I scheduled a consultation with Dan and we worked together to come up with some ideas. I had some ideas but after talking with Dan we decided on something else, he used his 20+ years of experience and roughly 10,000 different tattoos to explain in detail why something would look off or "weird" It's a true sign of a professional to help guide you in making a permanent decision, rather than just accepting work as it comes even if it's not ideal Thank you Dan, Tyler and everyone else at Captured for such an awesome experience

    Awesome studio, got tattooed by Shaun Topper who did an amazing job. Very comfortable environment and extremely professional staff. Definitely coming back to finish my sleeves.

    Shaun Topper is a legend! I'm in love with my Bastet tattoo and I've received so many complements! Tyler, the receptionist was awesome as well! If you're tired of mediocre tattoos and want something fascinating, go see Shaun.

    If you've ever had a bad tattoo, Chris will help make it unrecognizable. He's your guy for the job.

    I'd like to thank Chris for giving me a high quality coverup. He was always one step ahead and extremely professional in his work. The design, coloration, all of the above have greatly impressed me. I could not be more satisfied with Captured Tattoo and their artists.

    Shaun has done both of my tattoos. The first one was a fixer upper and he did a beautiful job! He fixed all the lines and made them straight. He brightened up my ugly black tattoo and made it into something new! My second tattoo was an anchor and he came up with an awesome original design which turned out great! He has the best line work and color theory! All of the artists are very polite and truly care about your needs! I've never felt so comfortable! I won't go anywhere else. Shaun is the best!!! Amazing detail and original designs!

    Dan delivered *exactly* what I wanted and I can't recommend him enough!

    I cannot recommend Captured Tattoo highly enough. My friend and I had the most positive experience working with them. We both made an appointment with Dan, the owner, who is seriously one of the best tattoo artists in the business. The entire process was easy for us -- Dan and Tyler were very warm, welcoming, accommodating, and patient with us as we zeroed in on the design we wanted. As expected, Dan delivered in spades and we're both thrilled with the tattoos we got. And after seeing the other artists in action at Captured Tattoo, I have to say I'd trust every one of them to do great work. The whole shop is stacked. (On top of all of this, I first came in contact with Dan when he and his shop donated to a nonprofit fundraiser I was working on. So not only does he and his staff do a phenomenal job, you're also supporting genuinely generous and kindhearted people when you choose them.)

    Day 2 on upper right arm.

I love how they don't just eyeball it but actually measure and draw out lines to figure out placement. Loved how all of em came out. Despite my efforts to keep them happy, I've had two incidents since where i was genuinely concerned that the only solution would be to take it out cuz that's all i saw online. I was so relieved when eddie informed me it'd be possible to save it (not a guarantee tho) using an extension bar and thank goodness it worked cuz both are completely fine now. I doubt i would still have em if i went anywhere else bout the issues i had. He is always rly prompt with responding on ig which I rly appreciate, especially when I had concerns. I first came here to get my tragus and third lobe piercings, and as someone who's really particular bout things like placement and symmetry, I got reassurance seeing Ayan measure and line up the placement of my third lobe piercings. Seeing how in depth they do even lobe piercings, I was confident in coming here and only here for back dermals.

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.

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!

I have yet to find a spot by myself so I just bit the bullet for paying for valet. We came in an hour before closing and were greeted by Samara - who did a wonderful job getting us set up for our spontaneous piercings! We were then directed to Lucas. He did my friend's tragus piercing and my dual lobe piercings. I haven't been pierced since I was a baby, but Lucas made the whole experience real easy. Overall, he's a super chill guy that makes an effort to strike up a conversation and make you feel comfortable about the whole process. Other than the fleeting hot sensation from the initial pinch, the process was pretty painless. Bonus: we got some sick stickers featuring his bull dog Everyone we met at the shop was friendly, knowledgable, and professional. Their website is also a fantastic resource in case you don't ask all of your questions about healing in-person. My friend and I truly felt like we were in great hands so kudos to everyone for setting such an easygoing vibe. I've been back a few times since January for a quick monthly check and to get my piercings downsized recently. As expected, I was met with top-tier customer service, true to the shop's personal brand. I feel confident coming back for future piercings. Lastly, if you're downsizing - I highly recommend making an appointment. I was in and out (no more than 15 minutes), but I was surrounded by 4+ walk ins. It's really easy to do so over their website vs. calling.
