Awesome vibe inside with circular lights above the stations and windows letting in natural light. I had Niki, she was very friendly (I really enjoyed our conversation about the local Latin dance scene) and light handed and helped me get the dragon tattoo inked on permanently. I didn't think it hurt at all and the healing was quick & dry. No blood or plasma pooling under the tape. I feel complete.

I got a vintage, ethereal single-needle rose tattoo from Jordan, and I love it. He did such a…read moreperfect job, the fine lines, the detail, the softness, it's exactly what I envisioned. Beyond being talented, Jordan made me feel comfortable throughout the entire tattoo process. I was cold, and he brought over a little heater to make sure I felt okay. He was attentive, kind, caring, and easy to trust. Truly a wonderful artist and human. Couldn't be happier with my tattoo. :)

Highly recommend! I originally came in with a pretty simple (and honestly not great) snake drawing,…read morebut then I met Olee and she completely transformed it into something so much cooler and more realistic than I could've imagined. She is incredibly talented, attentive, and made me feel comfortable the entire time. She really took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and never rushed me, which I appreciated so much. It felt like she genuinely cared about getting every detail just right. We even decided to go much bigger than I had originally planned, and I'm honestly so glad we did because I am absolutely in love with how it turned out. The whole process was way easier than I expected, fairly painless, and I didn't feel a thing afterward. I've gotten so many compliments on the detail and precision of the work. If you're looking for someone who listens, delivers, and elevates your vision, Olee is it.

I went to Ink Monkey to get my first tattoo. When I called earlier the receptionist was very…read morepleasant. She welcomed me and remembered my call. I spoke with the tattoo, artist Max and he put me at ease and explained the process and the consent form . He also made sure to check my Cal ID. His station was clean. He made sure to clean and sanitized everything. I showed him the design I wanted. He made different sizes and helped me choose the best part of my arm to do it. He had some really cool tattoos. He took his time to start. And he was correct it didn't hurt. The tattoo came out beautifully and the way I wanted it. Thank you Max.

Oh my gosh! Where to start. Wendy did an amazing job as my tattoo artist. She was very…read moreknowledgeable and she was very thorough and clean too! I'm glad she took the time to ask me what I wanted and she was very patient with me. And she also chats with you to ask how you're doing and if you need to stretch or take breaks.

I would definitely recommend her if you're thinking of getting your next tattoo! I got two very meaningful tattoos to me. I got a cote of arms crest and a cherry blossom tattoo with my family's name on it. Thank you Wendy!!! I appreciate you!!!! You the best!

I tried to go to this place several years ago and reviewed them on Google…read more I'm also placing my review here because I saw that the owner responded to me and said that he was there the day that I came. The problem is, I wrote my review several months after my visit and the woman who answered the door told me that she was the only one in the shop. This place has bad business practices, poor customer service, and the owner gives untruthful excuses. My original review: I meant to write this review sooner because I was very disappointed. I went here because I lost my nose ring. I did not realize you needed an appointment beforehand just to purchase jewelry. When the woman came to the door I was informed of the requirement and told she couldn't help me because she was with another customer. At no time did she offer to make an appointment for me or say that I could call to make an appointment later. I don't know if I'm being too sensitive, but I actually feel like it was racial that I wasn't offered any options. I absolutely will not ever in my life come to this establishment for anything. I felt it was very unprofessional and rude or she doesn't know customer service and the skill of attaining new customers.

Aesthetic Ambition is the best!! All around an incredible shop! Every piercer and staff member is…read moreknowledgeable, thoughtful, and professional. Cleanliness is a top priority and is taken very seriously (as it should be, but wow they are great). The whole shop is clean, so cute, and welcoming. So many details have been so well thought out. The aftercare instructions delivered on a custom made card, the beautiful selection of high quality jewelry, there aren't enough good things I can say about this place. Alejandra and Niche (maybe Eli too? Not sure, I had very specific needs and did a lot of calling) helped make sure I got the appointment properly scheduled and helped communicate an extreme needle phobia to the piercers Amber and (shop owner) Tidus who did a tandem piercing to get it over with quickly. I highly recommend this spot in general and for kids or adults with needle sensitivity/phobia. Huge thank you to my favorite piercing shop in LA/Santa Monica!!
