Had a good experience getting tattooed here. Dora has a lot of experience, a good eye, great taste, and is very bubbly. I wanted the outline of my dog's face in flowers (sunflowers specifically) and Dora suggested keeping the ears as realistic so I asked for one floppy ear and one pointed ear. I love, love, love the result. My dog means the world to me so despite this being my 8th tattoo, it was the one I was the most nervous about. Dora's creativity and skill will give you an amazing result to trust her and work with her. I attached some screenshots from Dora's instagram where she posted a reel on the start to finish of my tattoo. I absolutely love it and despite having yellow-toned skin (a lot of South Asians do) so made the sunflowers pop perfectly while capturing my sweet boy's orange-red fur. When you go, make sure you're not in a tight schedule as my appointment started almost an hour later than expected, but I took the day off so I was fine. They are COVID conscious so be sure to mask, but they'll encourage you to drink water and snack as needed. Parking lot is small, but I had no issues getting parking. They do a lot of good work so I'd definitely check them out!
Went back for a retouch + a flash tattoo of a butterfly ( $80 + tip on 10/14) made an appointment with Kimi again and last minute she took my friend in as well for a flash tat and the attention, service , & quality of her work is chefs kiss. Will be back for more of her work and highly recommend.
Me and my husband went today to Do. Art Ink Studio. We arrived for an appointment with Jun for two tattoos. The studio is bright and well lit with many plants. Gives a nice positive vibe and is very welcoming. After we filled out the necessary paperwork, Jun talked to us, showed us the design sizes. He was very professional. The single needle tattoo went smoothly, me and my husband were completely comfortable the entire time. And because Jun was familiar with the subject of the tattoo, it did feel he took extra attention to the details to make sure it was right. Super satisfied with the piece and already thinking about the next one to get. I Definitely recommend this spot.
Dora, is hands down one of the best artist in CA! I got a bouquet of flowers to represent my family and she knocked it out of the park! I get compliments every single day, and people are amazed when they realize it's a real tat! Book with Dora and you won't be sorry
This is a long overdue review from pre-pandemic (dec 2019). I found this studio off Instagram and fell in love with Dora's work. I wanted fine line flowers as my next tattoo and she did an amazing job. Communication was really easy with her.. the spot was very clean. The only thing I didn't enjoy as much was as I was getting tattooed, there were 2 other people in the shop that I was assuming were Dora's friends. They just ate and talked while I was getting tattooed, and not much conversation between my artist and I. However, my tattoo also healed very quick with no issues and it came out beautifully. I'm still planning to come back again for another trip this year for another tattoo!
The gals here are soo genuine (and have some cool badass tattoos on themselves!) its a women owned business so you know they're super sweet and kind. My friend and I got flash tattoos and we love them so much. They have cute designs and I think the artists do incredible work.
JD was easy to communicate with. I was able to send JD some pictures of what I wanted, they day of appointment he was able to show me a few ideas he had. My daughter and I wanted to get matching finger tattoos. Each tattoo maybe took 15-30 minutes, yes finger tattoo hurt more than other areas I have gotten. Really nice group of people. Reasonable price.
I came on Friday the 13th for their flash sale and couldn't be more impressed with the customer service, the amount of flash designs available, and quality of the tattoos! It's my first tattoo and I'd happily come back to get another! Very impressed with everything!
AMAZING. SO TALENTED. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Came here for Friday the 13th deals and left with a beautiful art piece by Lily. I'll be back for another tattoo and recommend to anyone looking for great work in the area! Everybody was so friendly and the aesthetic of the studio added to the experience!
Really nice, relaxing vibe inside the studio. It was a 3 month wait to see Dora, but it was obviously worth it as her work is stunning! Dora accommodated my last minute request to go from partial color to full color, and I think it turned out beautifully. During the healing process, I kept it out of sunlight, avoided activities with sweating, used a hydrating balm, and wore lots of sunscreen. It has only been 1 year, but it looks virtually the same as when I got it. Very polite and professional staff. I plan to go back to finish the half sleeve.
I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this studio. I've passed by it nearly every day since moving to Monterey Park and I've followed many of the artists on Instagram for a while -- all of the artists are women which is definitely a big plus when I'm looking for a new studio. I finally booked once I settled on an idea that I thought would be perfect with Zing's style. I'm so happy I booked with her! My tattoo was fairly simple but Zing was really kind as we went back and forth on the design a bit and was totally open to my feedback. The studio itself is bright and clean. The only thing I'll warn you about is it's right next to a dog groomers so you will hear barking constantly but if that's a concern I recommend bringing along some noise canceling headphones and letting your artist know. I did get used to it after about 20 minutes. The tattoo itself took maybe 30-40 minutes (I just got some small lettering on my thigh). It was not too painful at all and I almost fell asleep toward the end haha she really does have a gentle touch and I really recommend booking with her! She is very talented and great to work with. I will definitely be coming back here in the future.

Updates three years later. Once my Daughter tattoo healed up, it looked really faded. We are from the bay and we went to LA. There is no way we're gonna go back to LA to get a retouch. She spent $1000 for her piece and it looks like her tattoo is about 10 to 15 years old. It looks more faded in the person than this picture that I post . It's still beautiful, but I think it wasn't enough ink deep enough in the skin. read more

Dora is so talented and everyone in the shop was kind and welcoming. I wanted a piece done for my special needs son. The idea was based off of the poem "Welcome to Holland" I explained I wanted a windmill with tulips and Dora came up with this beautiful design. I am forever grateful. read more

Dora did an amazing job, I love both of my pieces by her. I gave her a loose framework to allow for some artist liberties. She did an amazing job with fine lines and exceeded my expectations. I got a partial color floral bunch with a cute little bee and a watercolor koi fish. The photos below are 3 months healed. read more

I wanted to honor my grandma after her passing by getting a tattoo of a Chinese character from her name. I specifically chose a tattoo artist who was Chinese to understand the significant meaning of the tattoo and female because the tattoo was high up on my thigh (for my own comfort). I was happy to see that Do. Art is female owned and has a primarily mandarin speaking staff! The shop was beautifully decorated and made me feel comfortable, as this was my first tattoo. I spoke to the owner about what I wanted and she recommended Zing. Her work on IG looked amazing so it was an easy decision to pick her. The process leading up to my appointment was smooth. Zing was very detail-oriented and took her time with my tattoo. The tattoo took about 45 minutes. I'm so happy with how my tattoo turned out and I've been getting a lot of compliments after posting it on social media. Thanks Zing!! :) read more

I was so nervous getting my FIRST tattoo. Kimi Z was professional and collaborative, doing a great job on design. The result is a delicate, thin lined good luck kitty, exactly what I wanted. Very happy with the result! The shop is clean, airy and bright. read more

The Experience: The shop was fantastic, clean, and everyone from the receptionist to the artist were very nice and welcoming. They were timely and the check in process was easy and painless. I wish the artist would have been a little more personable or talkative but I understand that some artists would rather focus on the work and not talk which is fine, I didn't let that affect my review or experience. The tattoo: Got 2 tattoos in one visit from Kimi. One of them (my left arm, first picture) was a pretty standard number '11' and turned out perfect. The shading of the inside was nice and dark and heavy. Exactly what I was hoping for. The other one (right arm, second picture) I gave her a rough idea of what I wanted (a stencil of the 11 and a gradual natural shading going into my skin) and was hoping she would stylize the shading around it to make it look natural. After finishing she had me look at it and I asked if she could make the shading around it more gradual and blend it more. Well, after another 10mins of work she had me look at it again and honestly it didn't look much different so I figured we should stop there and I could maybe have another artist finish it since it seemed like shading maybe wasn't her strength. So I went home and a few days later my girlfriend had observed that the numbers in the 2nd tattoo were UPSIDE DOWN. Fortunately it isn't a big deal and I don't mind it being upside down but.....this could've easily been a really really bad experience. Overall the shop itself was great and the 2-stars is really for the work that was done and the mistake. I'd go back, but I'd ask for another artist other than Kimi if I want something more than just basic lettering. read more

Had a great experience at Do. Art Ink Studio! I was able to get an appt on Saturday for the next day, Sunday. The studio is super nice: clean and inviting. Artists were very kind as well and helped me and my friend find the perfect spot and size for our first tattoos. Komi was our artist and was amazing. Would definitely come back again. In love with my new tattoo! read more

I've gotten 2 tattoos so far 1 from Dora and the other from Zing. Both are so nice and accommodating. The tattoos are very affordable for the amazing quality. Everyone compliments my tattoos saying how beautiful they are. Dora was able to do very vibrant colors on darker/tanned skin without any issues. The tattoos were also practically painless compared to other tattoos I've gotten.The staff are very friendly/welcoming and the shop is very chill/relaxing vs how uninviting other tattoo shops can be. This is my favorite place to get tatted and I try to get all my work done here! read more

They are extremely unprofessional and money hungry at this establishment. Beware. I've gotten 1 piece from them and it was a good experience so I figured I would come back for another piece. I inquired on a small arm piece, maybe 3 inches max and was quoted an extensive amount of money. I gracefully said, "no thank you, that's a bit too expensive for my taste, thank you for the info and for your time." Instead of responding politely, I received a nasty and judgmental response back. I will definitely never give my business to such an arrogant establishment. So many better options out there for quality work and kind artists with better prices and attitudes. This is just an FYI for the public. Don't come at me. Thanks. read more

My husband and I came here just for some basic line work - Roman numerals of our son's birthday. The free consultation through text was useful and appreciated. Kimi ended up doing our tattoos. She was very precise and did an amazing job. She has such a gentle hand that the both of us ended up falling asleep during our sessions lol thank you Kimi & DoArt. read more
This place is my saving grace after a bad experience elsewhere... my new spot! They do BEAUTIFUL fine line work. Thank you so much JD for such a beautiful delicate tattoo. Booking is easy, clear communication, and they follow strict COVID precautions by taking your temperature and having you wash your hands upon entering. Good prices as well. Easy parking. I will continue to return here for the rest of my tattoos! I love it so much!!! The environment inside is so nice and calm - and everyone is so sweet! Thanks JD :-) read more

Hello all, to who's reading this, I hope you're doing well! Ok, let's begin! This is my second set of tats from this establishment. My review is based on those two visits and my experience with just the one artist. The rest of the staffs are as friendly and welcoming. It can get pretty busy here. An appointment is suggested. The place really doesn't have a lot of parking for the area, where there are other businesses within the plaza. My first visit was a walk-in and they took me. My artist, Zing was so pleasant and patient working with me. She's super friendly and kind! Very professional and helped me designed my tattoos. It took about two hours in all, from start of drawing and design to tat finish. On my second visit, I had made an appointment. Again, from start to finish about two hours, super nice and easy. My appointment was with the same artist, Zing. Zing helped me redesign a piece that I have on photo. She worked on it, converting it onto paper and made it backwards for me. It came out more beautiful and awesome then I had imagined. Thank you very much Zing. read more

I just recently got the best tattoo I've ever gotten at this studio by Dora! She is extremely talented and runs/owns a beautiful shop! Normally after my tattoos are finished healing I notice an immediate fading of the color, but Dora's tattoo has healed and didn't fade at all!!! Prices are also very reasonable considering how talented she is and how long she has done the work I am so in love with the tattoo and plan to come back the next time I want a tattoo with vibrant color! read more

This tattoo shop has a really great feel about it. Clean, modern yet delicate style. The artists are mandarin and English speaking. It's really great that the culture is becoming more modern and accepted in the states. The work and art itself is done well and professionally. Everyone is wearing masks and they require you wash your hands right when you step into the shop. Lily did my tattoo and will be adding onto it. It is a more difficult piece. She was very understanding and ready to tackle this task. She collaborated with her fellow artists as well as myself. We came to a great agreement on how the tattoo should look and what exactly would enhance it. I highly recommend this place. The value for what you get is very much justified and the skill set is there. read more

Sorry. I don’t have that ink. I always think about the safety. So I need do more research to see it is safe for sure, then use it in my shop.
