Intricate Job By Vamp herself
Michelle M.

What an Amazing way to End the Last Sunday of January is by getting New Ink at DOTTA INK with "Vamp" herself. From the Consultation via text to Walking into the Tattoo shop Greeted by 2 Awesome Artists. Thank you Tata for helping me with the Digital Paperwork LOL! The Piece I got was a "Personal" Lettering Tattoo and Vamp did a 110% GREAT JOB. I felt very Comfortable and at Peace all throughout. I did My Research in finding Tattoo Shops and My intense research kept leading me back to DOTTA INK and I AM SO HAPPY I made the Perfect Choice. I wish I stayed longer just for the Vibe, Friendliness and Energy. THANK YOU AGAIN VAMP!!!‍‍‍‍‍‍

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Angela hooked it up with a beautiful and quick tat, for the walk-in.

Came in to have my daughter get her belly button pierced! What can i say!? EXCEPTIONAL service. Was greeted at the door with GREAT service. Michelle took care of my daughter, who was a bit scared but she made sure that my daughter was in good hands. She was clean, polite, and most importantly professional. Everything was sterile and clean. Definitely recommend this place to anyone. Thank you Dota Ink for taking care of my kiddo!

@artby.tata did an excellent job on the rosary tattoo! i highly recommend getting a tattoo by tata

I can't say enough amazing things about Dotta Ink in Downey, CA! From the moment you walk in, the vibe is welcoming, clean, and professional. Every single tattoo artist there is incredibly talented. You can really tell they take pride in their work and care about bringing your vision to life. The detail, creativity, and precision they put into their tattoos is next level. A special shoutout to Maricela, the piercer -- she is AWESOME at her job! She's knowledgeable, gentle, and makes the whole experience comfortable and stress-free. She explains everything clearly and makes sure you feel confident and at ease before, during, and after your piercing. And of course, the owner Angela is an absolute girl boss! She's amazing, professional, and has built such a strong, talented team. You can see her passion reflected in the whole shop. It's inspiring to see a woman-owned business thriving like this. If you're thinking about getting a tattoo or piercing, Dotta Ink is the place to go. 10/10 recommend!

My first ink.   Professionally delivered.

My first tattoo experience was so good! Thanks to Zil. She is relaxed, professional, skilled and detail oriented. I am very pleased with the results and already thinking about my next ink. The parlour is cool and has a great vibe. Book with Zil, you will be happy.

Art did the filler tattoos of the hourglass with wings, the scythe, trowel and acacia leaves this session.

I went to Dotta Ink to see Art Gallardo. Cool shop. Clean, a bit gothic styled and nice and open. Art is known for his great American Traditional Style but is great at Black and Grey and other styles too. My favorite part about him is his custom work. He loves to draw on the client to make it fit the body and spaces so well. That's why I continue to see him. He has done cover ups, fillers and blast overs on me and I always get compliments. Dotta Ink is a cool spot located in Downey near Portos. Get a rad tattoo and then some awesome pastries next door. Everyone in the shop is so nice. It's awesome to find a welcoming tattoo studio.

The shop dynamic and vibe is awesome make you feel welcomed from the moment you step in. My artist is Jenny (Tattoochick1383) always does awesome work on me always on point with the request and awesome with her hands.

Second lobe piercing

Camilo did an amazing job with my daughter. She wanted her second earring on her lobe. He was very paciente and kind. Will definitely be back because he did a quality job!

Hailey S.

Leslie (lilith_artjunk) did two of my tattoos at Dotta ink and they came out so perfect. She pays incredible attention to detail and makes the experience very comfortable. She helped me figure out the best placement for them on my arm and made everything work well together. The tattoos are healing beautifully and I am absolutely in love with them. 100% recommend going to her for your tattoo needs!!

Lovely set up.
Promise W.

I went for a follow up and Jenn is so easy to talk to. Great experience and can't wait to go back. We started a nice piece and we will be adding on slowly but it will get done.

She's very attentive and laid back and has the CUTEST jewelry options I've ever seen (I went back for 3 more pieces). She also made sure my naval piercing was centered correctly and understood it's gonna be there forever so it's gotta look right. I couldn't have made a better choice by going to her. My piercing healed with MINIMAL redness / swelling that only lasted a few days. I also got tattooed by Nick in January and I will 100000% be coming to him from here on out. His talent is off the charts & he's the only artist I would trust in CA with detail or color because his work is so flawless. We got lucky having him in Downey + they let my dog come in with me to get pierced!!! Made her feel just as welcomed. I'm obsessed with this shop

She explained everything step-by-step and told us exactly what was going to happen and what to expect, which helped a lot. She was really clean and professional, but most important she was gentle and careful which I appreciated. My son had barely any swelling, no bruising at all, and everything is healing perfectly. The piercing was quick and way better than he expected. I wouldn't do it any other way and would definitely recommend her, especially if you're nervous like my son.

Tracy at the front desk was super helpful with check in and my questions about jewelry and what not. My one feedback and note would be to mention that visitors do have the option to "try-on" jewelry if they are torn between sizes or colors of jewelry because I think some newcomers wouldn't be aware they could do that if it's not mentioned. My friend asked to try a couple of jewel sizes and that was really helpful with decision making. (By try-on, you are just holding the jewelry piece up to yourself and checking yourself out in the mirror :P ) They offer titanium and gold jewelry here. Many beautiful pieces. They also sell saline spray (for $15 if I remember correctly) which I picked up since I was traveling and will be traveling again. Lacy pierced me and she was soooo amazing! She was really through with her explanations and I felt very comfortable with her. Everything went so smoothly and it was mostly painless - only a pinch in the process but no discomfort after the jewelry was already in. My friends and I left with super cute nostril piercings! Highly recommend this studio. Very grateful and happy with the experience here.

Turned out I wasn't pierced properly for my anatomy which was causing all the issues. I worked with the piercers here over the next few months to try to save them but ended up taking them out. But the team here did everything they could to troubleshoot and help which was refreshing, and they were honest when it was time to give up. Ended up starting from scratch (after a healing period) with all new piercings which have all worked out beautifully! The entire team is fantastic and always helpful with any questions or even just helping me swap out my jewelry to make sure it's done properly. I won't go to or recommend anywhere else - it's my forever place! Special shout out to Rena and Jose - they always have a great vibe and are just lovely people all around

I called the location and spoke to Debbie, who was kind and helpful in scheduling a same day appointment for me and my daughter. I was getting a second set of piercings for myself (to motivate my daughter who was a little nervous). I was told they typically do piercings Friday/Saturday/Sun and appointments are preferred. The location is a jewelry store so they buzz you in. The store is incredibly clean and welcoming. Debbie and Nikki assisted us. They sanitized my daughter's ears, let her pick out the earrings she wanted (good variety of 14k gold/white gold), and did the two ears at once since they had both staff present. They use a gun like device that pinches the earring in versus a thick needle. It was done within seconds. My daughter was given a certificate for bravery and tiara as well. They even gave me one so we could take a photo together. Thank you, Debbie and Nikki, for being so kind and patient with my daughter. She left with the biggest smile . Prices seem comparable to other reputable jewelry stores that I looked into. Left with the cleanly solution and clear instructions for care. I highly recommend this location!
