It's not often you discover a small business who is great at her craft and is a wonderful human…read morebeing. With Silvana, you get both. I saw Primal Henna Arts at a street festival and always wanted to try it. The artist was very friendly and professional, and she had many customers already waiting and busy flipping through books of photos of henna and pagua art she has created. I chose to do 2: henna on upper hand/climbing up my wrist and pagua (a darker blue ink based on Silvana's recommendation) climbing up my lower leg. It was a hot and windy day, and the festival was loud and very busy. I left my henna and pagua on for 4-5 hours and then rinsed off the dried bits and applied coconut oil. Over the next 48 hours, the pagua design on my leg slowly developed but still took another 24-48 hours to fully darken! But the henna on my wrist never did. (I was so sad but sometimes this can happen depending on a number of things.) So I reached out to Silvana who immediate jumped into action like a superhero with a giant heart! I'm telling you, people like Silvana are hard to find. She really cares about customer experience! She worked with me on a day to meet up, and we met up at a coffee shop to redo my henna... And WOWEEEEE! Is it possible to be in love with your own arm? Well I think you can when it's a henna glove that looks like my dream! See photos! Not only is the art fantastic, Silvana and I chatted the entire time, and she is just a wonderful and interesting person. I loved hearing about her life story, her interests, etc. She had a lot of poignant questions about me and my life too. She even gave me tips on MY small business! In addition to being creative, talented and professional, Silvana is very open, thoughtful and kind. I can't recommend Silvana more. 10 out of 10 on everything. And I hope to see Silvana again soon!

We booked Silvana (Primal Henna Arts) for my sister's baby shower and she was incredible! She was…read moreso sweet and easy to work with, and made everyone feel comfortable. It was a long day with lots of guests, but she stayed patient, kind, and kept creating the most gorgeous designs. Everyone who got henna was blown away by how beautiful and detailed her work was, seriously, every single design came out stunning. She added such a fun and special vibe to the shower, and people are still talking about it! If you're ever looking for a henna artist, I 100% recommend Silvana. Super talented, super sweet, we'll definitely be booking her again!

Recently back for more. And yes it was worth the effort and planning to get an appointment. If you…read moreare reading this review I will assume you are a serious tattoo aficionado who respects/appreciates a true artist. Everyone has their personal opinion about tattoos. And if you are a person reading reviews of tattoo artists hoping to find a person to trust with putting art on your body that is permanent I can't recommend enough the value of coming to this studio to see Marlo. She is a true artist. Tattooing to me should represent a spiritual experience with the artist. Trust in them to put on your body a piece of art that fits you. Something that matches your unique life and personality. Well, Marlo does all that. No stencils. Just free drawing an extension of my heart onto my body to remind me of my strength and resilience. She told me more meanings and I was absolutely touched at the insight she had into me as a woman. She created a visual representation that is so beautiful. Does getting a tattoo hurt? Yes. Of course it does. But Marlo is an amazingly caring professional and will stop as needed to check in on you and take breaks if necessary. But don't go into it thinking it isn't going to hurt. That is just silly. Some parts hurt less than others of course and everyone has their pain tolerance. But be realistic peeps, come on now! Be safe and enjoy life! SYOY!

I am beyond HAPPY and in LOVE with my tattoo!!…read more Marlo is welcoming, professional, and clearly extremely passionate about her art work. She genuinely took the time to make you feel comfortable and safe. She understood exactly what I wanted and what I wanted it to represent, and executed the design flawlessly! Her line work and shading are top-tier, and hygiene standards were excellent! Earthbound Tattoo brings on good and positive vibes, and is great with communication! If you're looking for a skilled, reliable tattoo artist, she is the one for you! Marlo - I am so honored to have the privilege to get this beautiful art piece from you! You and Le are genuinely great people! Keep doing what you both are excellent at! Aloha & Mahalo! 'til next time

Well meet the orca family! it's a family of wife/husband/daughter/son and they all take part in setting up shop on the boardwalk during warmer months to give you that lasting color memory on yo' face! One of my requirements lol is that I usually like to choose my own design and they totally allow that. Just nothing derogatory. Being able to get face paint makes the day fun, you can wear it all day and get attention at dinner if that's your comfort level, and for me it brings me a little slice of my childhood of yester-year. They also accept credit cards! So, if you haven't taken the glitter plunge or even visited Santa Cruz, what-are-you-waiting-for? *Vegas life, Cali girl forever.
