Cedre is truly an artist. I have had the pleasure of working with Cedre on multiple pieces and they bring artistry and comfort to the tattoo process. I spent over a year working on a half sleeve that started from a song lyric idea - that Cedre transformed into a shield of beauty that I proudly get to wear. The piece still looks fantastic after 5+ years! I recently did a smaller piece with Cedre (April 2024) and the environment they create and the true artistic eye they brought made it worth flying from Austin TX to get the work done. In a world where tattoo parlors can be places where I'd rather not be - Cedre has created a space where I feel safe, secure and comfortable and able to be a part of the tattoo process. I highly recommend working with Cedre. read more

I got my first tattoo from Cedre 11 years ago! I have 2 amazing pieces they inked on me. The first was a matching piece for my wife-to-be and I as our bonding tattoo - a full forearm on each of us. Another a memorial floral piece for my mother on my other forearm. We recently visited Cedre in their new location to have our piece touched up. It is a warm, cozy, vibrant space. Cedre is one of those people you feel blessed to meet. Their vision and expertise elevates the art to new levels. read more

Cedre Csillagi Tattoos - Cedre's outstanding artistry. Phenomenal lines and details. - Tattoo Near Me

I have been working with Cedre since 2018 and have multiple medium to large pieces from them including artistic duplications and complicated coverups and reworks. Cedre is truly a one-of-a-kind artist specializing in beautifully detailed botanicals, color, and shading techniques that I am constantly being stopped and asked about! I have come to them with challenging projects and they have always found an inspired way to make it work and bring my dreams to life. They are very patient and compassionate with the planning process. In particular I had a coverup on a large scarred area that I was very sensitive about and they took me through the process step-by-step until I got a result that was so amazing it changed my life. They are also a really fun, charming, and cool person to have the privilege to spend time with, which is key when you are laying there being tattooed for hours at a time! Not to mention they are a pioneer in the Bay Area tattoo industry. They create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere that truly anyone will feel at home in their shop. I am a woman over 50 and consider my time there a "spa day" lol. Plan your dream project with Cedre, it is worth the wait for the best!!! read more

Cedre is the best of the best of the best. Not only are they an exceptionally talented tattoo artist, but add to that an incredible listener, a multitasking whiz, a thoughtful and compassionate human that is constantly thinking about how to do better for the world, the community, their people and those that are marginalized. Cedre elegantly holds everything that comes up during the tattooing process, no matter how intense. The entire experience was superb- the way Cedre incorporates the client in the creative process is so unique but it means the work is perfectly placed, perfectly composed and all the more meaningful. I feel so lucky and privileged to get to walk around with Cedre's art for the rest of my life! read more

My familiarity with the aesthetic and practical conventions of tattooing is pretty limited, so in that regard I can only enthusiastically echo the reviews here, which univocally express Cedre's exceptional skill and artistry. My tattoo is **so** beautiful. I feel immensely lucky that Cedre came up in my very clumsy online research, and that out of the many artists in the area whose work looked impressive, I took the leap of actually reaching out to them. I entered the process with a lot of uncertainty and ~feelings~ around this tattoo, which was going to partially cover a pretty substantial area of conspicuous scarring. Cedre's confidence in and palpable care for the work not only put me at ease, but in retrospect it allowed some serious healing to take place. It's still felt poignantly, about a year out. So -- way more than 5 stars for Cedre: an exceptional artist and an exceptional human. read more
