I recently had a session with Aya at Costello Tattoo for a custom Goddess Isis tricep wrap, and the…read moreexperience was 10/10. From the jump, the shop vibes were professional and clean, which is huge for me working in the medical field. Aya is a true specialist. I was looking for high-level fine line work and she absolutely delivered on the detail and shading. She really understood the vision I had for this piece as a symbol of my career transition and personal growth. The placement fits my physique perfectly and the healing process has been smooth thanks to her solid aftercare instructions. If you're looking for a top-tier artist in LA who handles custom work with precision, book with Aya! :)

I had a great experience at Studio City Tattoo, working with Sawooli who is a totally pro artist. I…read morehad come in early, the staff was polite and took the time to talk over my design idea before pairing me up with an artist, even got me in the same day! The process from there was good, they made me feel welcome and comfortable. Sawooli drafted a very cool design with a couple variants to pick from. The tattoo process itself was less painful than my prior tattoo at a different studio even with multi colors; honestly not bad at all for the time needed. Pricing was totally fair for the high quality of work. The shop was clean, and organized with a cool pirate vibe. I wouldn't hesitate to go back. It's a solid studio, My Tattoo came out better than my original intentions.

It's the first Mother's Day without her mom and with SAWOOLI and other staff at Studio City Tattoo help we were able to help make a sad day slightly better. The environment felt safe and comfortable enough allowing her to grieve while we waited for SAWOOLI to get the tattoos ready. Thanks again to everyone there this morning. Meant a lot to her. She walked in sad w her head down and walked out smiling and head held high. Made a huge difference

I got my first and only tattoo from 11:11 AD on Ventura Blvd. I had visions of this tattoo for over…read morea year. Luis gave me exactly what i envisioned. A Perfect Equilateral Triangle. I was raised by my mother who has me and my brother, so i always saw us as the three points in a triangle. We group text every single day. We always make sure each other is safe before we go to bed. The Love is Deep. I was a walk in and the customer service was excellent. There was some really good looking guy who may work there too with a shaved head and lots of tattoos. Nice to have something to distract you from the pain. The studio itself is super artsy and dope. It was also very clean. I truly had a great experience getting my tattoo.

Kirk Alley has been tattooing me since 2011, and I don't want anyone else to tattoo me for as long…read moreas we both shall live. Truly. I have two major pieces from him: a full sleeve on my left arm and a black-and-white piece that begins on my lower right ribs and wraps behind to the left side of my lower back. The latter required some reworking of old tattoos, and Kirk executed flawlessly. He has my complete trust when it comes to tattooing. I don't think twice about him drawing on me. To state the obvious: Kirk is an incredible artist -- originally a painter recruited to become a tattooist -- who can execute on any style you wish with flying colors. That's rare in a world of specialists who are limited to one style. You will get a one-of-a-kind piece. Plus, Kirk's a pleasure to be around. It's nice to spend a couple of hours talking to him while he draws on me. I always look forward to visiting him, and I hope that can happen again soon.

From the moment I walked into the studio, Vicky and Agne made the entire experience feel so…read morewelcoming, comfortable, and special. Vicky did such an amazing job setting the tone right away. She made me feel instantly at ease with her warm energy, professionalism, and kindness, which meant so much, especially in a tattoo setting where comfort really matters. She created such a positive atmosphere from the start and made the whole experience feel smooth and enjoyable. Agne was equally amazing throughout the entire process. She was so communicative, attentive, and reassuring every step of the way, which made me feel really taken care of. Her professionalism and ability to make everything feel calm, clear, and effortless truly stood out. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and takes pride in giving a great experience, not just great service. Together, Vicky and Agne made such a wonderful team. Their energy, attention to detail, and overall customer care were exceptional. The whole experience felt professional, personal, and comfortable in the best way. I'm so grateful for how well I was treated and would absolutely recommend this studio to anyone looking for amazing service and a great vibe.

I'll start by saying that I LOVE tattoos. So when my tattoo artist retired I was devastated. I…read moredidn't think I could ever find another tattoo shop, let alone a tattoo artist that I would trust like I did Stephanie. When I was finally ready to maybe try a new place I reached out to Stephanie, and without hesitation she said I had to see Robert. OMG! Was she right! It was love at first tattoo! Robert is immensely talented, so much so that what started out as a single peony turned into a whole sleeve. And I'm sure I'll be added more in the years to come. Robert is not only talented, but he is funny as hell and the cherry on top is he loves glasses and dogs as much as I do. I would highly recommend him to the whole universe! As for the shop itself, it's always super clean and well looked after. All and I do mean all the tattoo artists that work there are amazing! They all welcome you in. I especially love how they bounce ideas off of each other while working on their own unique pieces.

I got one of my favorite tattoos here…read more However, when I called to get another tattoo quoted, they said they wouldn't tattoo me. I wanted simple scribe on my neck and apparently traditional tattoo artists only do visible tattoos if you have more... and I have five. Sure that's fine, but with that came a mini lecture about what I'm deciding to put on my body. Telling me to wait a week without asking how long this has been on my mind. It went into as far as telling to consider how I'm profiled in society because of a neck tattoo. I'm a Black Queer Man living in America. Although well intended, I don't need someone at the peek of the social totem pole telling me about being "profiled" in this country. Again, really don't have an issue with refusing to do the service. I know it was well intended. But I don't need a tone deaf conversation when I'm calling to get a quote on a tattoo.
