I've seen Regina (Push) twice now and both times have been some of the most fun times I've had getting tattooed! Regina is so personable and real, gives incredible tattoo advice, and is an all around great time. The vibe is fantastic and welcoming and that's all I could ask for in a tattoo studio. I can't wait to come back and get more work done! read more

I've been wanting a fine line tattoo for a while and finally made an appointment with Brittney. She is super booked up, so I had to make my appointment a year and half ago, but that tells you her work is in high demand. I sent her inspo pics after I made my deposit, which she confirmed shortly after. To be honest, I had forgotten about this appointment until she texted me last month to confirm. I resent her my inspo pic and she created/drew something similar as she does not copy other artist's work. Much respect to that. The tattooing took about 3.5 hours, and we took little quick breaks here and there. Overall, I love my tattoo! I got a peony-butterfly tattoo and it's super feminine and gorgeous. I had a great conversation with Brittney, so much so that we talked throughout the whole process. I love the super chill vibes at this place. read more

I had the most amazing tattoo experience with Britt! I'd been following her instagram @brittnaami for quite awhile before I decided to take the plunge. I knew prior to my appt that it would take a long time to get in with her and was expecting that part. As promised about a month prior she reached out to discuss the design and even added things I didn't think of. Even tho the design was a surprise, I had followed her enough to know what to expect and she didn't disappoint! The design was exactly what I had envisioned. Britt's line work is impeccable! She made sure I was comfortable the entire time. She played great music, and she was fun to talk to and get to know. My new art work is beautiful! I'm so incredibly happy with it and can't stop exploring it and finding new awesome details she added. Thank you, I'm in love!! read more

Great experience not your typical tattoo parlor. Nice people work here and super friendly environment. Great artists and very welcoming place. I got a great tattoo and while I was there I felt very comfortable. I love the plants growing in the window. Parking was easy and was not hard to find a spot on a Saturday in the city. read more

I'm legit getting tattooed right now and am having the best time. I was relaying how this tattoo experience was the exact opposite of my first one, which was in a dark and very dude bro parlor in Sacramento. The vibes are immaculate as soon as you walk through the door. It didn't hurt that they were legit playing my jams. Regina is super chill and created the tattoo I've been dreaming of for two decades. She's collaborative, gentle and just rad as ****! read more

This is specifically for the Talented Sierra who does a lot of naturalist/nature inspired fine line tattoos. Her lines are so delicate and are done so thoughtfully down. Her laser focus as she works on her art is great. I love the ambiance of this studio - it's relaxing, welcoming - a complete foil to the traditional tattoo studios. read more

The shop is clean, warm, welcoming and super cute. My artist Britt created a beautiful design that I am totally in love with, and the work is spectacular! She was super helpful throughout the process. Feeling grateful and also inspired by all she is up to read more

I have followed Regina (@inkbypush) on IG for a long time and finally came in. I am not a very tattoo'd person but I felt confident enough in what I saw to get my first "can't hide it without long sleeves" tattoo here. The shop was quiet, full of plants, and comfy. I do have other tattoos but I always hesitate to get a new one because of how stressful the process can be but Regina's demeanor and patience just made the whole thing, like literally, anxiety free. Definitely going back. Definitely for front and center work. Thanks so much! read more

Got tatted by Regina. Immediately after opening the door she made me feel at home, but even before that the appointment process was amazing, as I had to reschedule multiple times due to personal complications and never had any issue, and was always treated with kindness. The tatting process itself was really good, placed and replaced the stencil on until I found what was just right, and after the actual tattoo it turned out even better than I expected. 10/10 recommend! read more

Wow, I'm truly honored and amazed to have the opportunity to receive such a stunning and enchanting piece from Brittney. She created a customized sailor Saturn silence death glaive for me on my left outer forearm. My experience was nothing short of magical, and I am so thrilled to share it with everyone. Britney is a true gem and her communication was seamless from the first interaction we had to when we met in the studio. Her ability to understand my vision for the tattoo is simply astounding. Through the reference pictures I sent her, she was able to turn my vision into a wonderful and gorgeous reality. It is the most beautiful piece I have ever gotten done. Truly. The tattoo studio, Gold Leaf ink. is a very comforting and warm and vibey studio. You're surrounded by plants that are very vibrant & great artists that are welcoming. I'm absolutely over the moon with my Sailor Saturn tattoo and cannot express enough gratitude for the enchanting artwork that I can finally done forever on my skin. I already schedule my next session, and I can't wait. If you're considering a tattoo artist who's communicative, passionate about her craft, and is so so so exceptional with the tattoo needle, book with her. Check out her IG to see her portfolio: @brittnaami read more

I cant say enough good things about Gold Leaf and Regina. I knew I wanted a tattoo with the four elements of hip hop and what Regina came out with is more than anything I could've asked for. Regina is talented as all hell, shop is clean, and professional. Highly recommend if you're lucky enough to get a tattoo here read more

I love my tattoo that was done by Regina! I found Regina off of Instagram and when her books opened, I immediately submitted the form. I am so happy with the tattoo. The line work is beautiful and super detailed. She is communicative and let me know that her appointment before me was running a bit late and into my appointment. That's totally fine, I understand. Regina also gave me a few options and different sketches of my idea. Definitely appreciated her advice on placement and size. Regina's hand was steady and gentle! Also, the tattoo was super quick! Studio was nice and clean. Staff was friendly as well. Would totally recommend GoldLeaf Ink! read more

Britt (@brittnaami - insta) is an amazing artist with a beautiful eye and hand for detail. She listened to exactly what I had in mind and completely blew me away with the concept art she created for me. She is truly an artist that is super savy with her craft. Lover her energy and vibe! She diligently worked on my arm for almost 7 hours. Actually, had a blast pummeling through those 7 hrs. Didn't feel much pain and I had so much fun being in her company. I already have everyone asking me where I got my tattoo and that the artwork is hella dope. Thank you so much for putting in the time and effort to create this beautiful piece! Proud to have your artwork on me! Thank you! I'll come back for the ouroboros and other tattoo ideas I had in mind! :D read more

I personally had a bad experience with Britt (@brittanaami). She was very hard to get in contact with. I had to contact her on two social media platform in order for her to respond. As a client, I expect the business/artist to reach out and confirm the appt since it was scheduled so far in advance. I understand that life gets busy but it's part of their job. I was excited for this tattoo and waited for a year and half for this appt. And now, I am extremely frustrated with the unprofessionalism and lack of communication. I'm sure if the roles were reversed, the artist will be just as mad with the last minute rescheduling and canceling. To preface this, I scheduled an appt for Dec. 4, 2022 @ 3:00PM about a year and a half ago (Aug. 31, 2021). I'm also coming from out of town (about 2 hrs away from SF). I emailed and DMed her to confirm my appt on Dec. 2, 2022. During this message exchange, I found out that she had not seen my reference photos. I emailed them on Nov. 22, 2022, about 2 weeks prior to the appt (as requested when we first made the appt). She then asked me to push my appt 2 hrs back to 5PM. I did not feel comfortable with the short amount of time to design a tattoo that will be on my body permanently when she didn't even look at my reference photos. She provided alternative dates and even suggested our original time (which I appreciated). I agreed on Dec. 11 @ 12:00PM. Following that conversation, I politely voiced my concerns by saying, "I would've appreciated it if she reached out or followed up with me sooner so that this whole situation could've been avoided in the first place. This situation was stressful for me because I live pretty far from the city now and made sure to allocate a sufficient amount of time to come back to get tattooed by her." She then said that it was not a good idea to tattoo me because I was upset about this situation and offered to return the deposit. She also explained that it's not unusual for artists to design a piece a day prior or day of (which I understand now; different artist, different process). I told her I'm still interested in getting a tattoo with her. I suggested to give it some space and see how things were in a week. We agreed to keep the Dec 11th appt (see attached photo). Fast forward a week later, Friday, Dec. 9th. I DMed her to confirm the appt, initiating the conversation again. No reply. Didn't want to risk my deposit and be considered a "no-show," I arrived at my appt 10 mins before the scheduled time. Britt said that she was not expecting me as she did not confirm the appt and that we were suppose to touch base before. She also mentioned that she didn't see my DM even though she was expecting us to touch base. She also had another client booked for my time after we agreed to keep my appt. Got my deposit back. Safe to say, I will not be coming back. read more

I can't say enough about how great my experience was at Gold Leaf with Regina (@inkbypush). The studio is bright, clean, and comfortable. Regina listened patiently and made sure she understood what I was after before we played with the design, which she was very willing to do. This was my first tattoo on a sensitive part of the body (upper ribs/side chest) AND was over scar tissue, yet I felt completely comfortable with and reassured by her throughout the whole process. It turned out beautifully and I'm so happy about it. What a warm, charming, incredibly talented and professional artist and studio. I definitely recommend going, and plan to come back! read more

Gold Leaf Ink - Koi fish and geometric - Tattoo Near Me - San Francisco, California

I have been following Regina for years and have always loved her art, especially her botanicals. As I got older, I developed this mole (technically it's a sun spot according to the doctor) that I knew would look great "decorated" with Regina's flowers. I wasn't sure what kind but she showed me some examples and I immediately fell in love with her peonies. It was my birthday weekend as well, so I thought of getting daffodils as a symbol of rebirth and she was able to draw some up for me really quick. Regina has a gentle, light hand yet extremely detailed and super fast. She's just also a really dope person and although I'm happy she was able to breeze through my tattoo quickly, I wouldn't have minded if it took longer haha. I am so happy with my tattoo, I almost don't want to share because I want her all to myself lol but if you are looking for a clean, beautiful, inviting space with an incredibly talented tattoo artist then you've found the one. I can't wait to get more from her! read more

Gold Leaf Ink - Can you find the mole? - Tattoo Near Me - San Francisco, California

During the beginning of SIP when all businesses were closed, Regina had a genius idea of allowing people to purchase flash tattoo passes in advance and schedule a time to come in the future when it was allowed. I was one of the lucky peeps that was able to grab a flash pass in April and finally came in yesterday to get mine done. If you're into fine line/single needle tattoos like me, Regina's style and designs are amazing! She was super patient and thorough with her work. The studio is super clean and no one else was inside during my entire session. It honestly took me longer figuring out my design than her actually tattooing it on me. I appreciated her advice regarding placement, design and sizing. I'm definitely planning on getting more work done by her and if you're thinking about it too, it'll be so worth it! 10/10 recommend coming to see her at her studio! read more

One of the best experiences of my life.  This is also my first tattoo so, as Regina mentioned, I do not have anything to compare it to. However, I have heard many stories from friends that do have tattoos, and yes.. eventhough I have nothing to compare it to... I know that this was special beyond words. When I saw the design Regina sketched outfor me,  for the first time (day of appointment), I was speechless. Thought it was perfect. The more I looked at it the more powerful it became. I did have a nudge in my head that it was missing something... With this being my first tattoo, I felt it was rude to vocalize the one item that I felt was missing. I communicated it and she was so responsive and open to it. Through out the session, Regina threw out some ideas as well of how she thought the piece would work better, and I was open to it. I am very humbled by other peoples art, and was aware that this is HER art and HER passion, and trusted that she could see the details that she found fitting for what would be way beyond my mind and eyes to see or even think of. I showed up with an iPad and netflix, thinking that I would need a distraction from the pain or buzzing sound, but I did not need it at all. There was island reggae playing in the background endlessly, I asked Regina a million questions of how she started as an artist to how she ended up on Market street of SF, to realizing that everything about how I ended up on her tattoo table/chair with her behind the needle and ink, was nothing but universal perfection. I have all the gratitude in the universe towards her, her art, her passion, and dedication to feeding into her creativity. I ended calling my piece "Goddess of the universe, healer of the world, powered by the Moon". I would not change this experience for anything in the world. read more

I've been looking into getting my first tattoo for awhile, and once I found Regina on Instagram I knew I wanted her as my artist. I sent in a request via her website and heard back from her assistant in about a week to set up an appointment. I was expecting it to hurt a lot but since she's known for having "a light hand" it was only mildly uncomfortable. We made small chat throughout the process to help distract me and my tattoo was done in about 40 minutes. Overall I am super happy with the result - if you're considering getting any tattoos done I would absolutely choose Regina. Her linework is impeccable and she's lovely and professional to boot! read more

Staying true to the neon pink sign in her store, Regina is nothing but good vibes, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience for my first tattoo! Her studio is extremely welcoming, and she was super patient and sweet throughout the entire process. My whole experience her was super easy and smooth, and I am so so happy with how my tattoo came out. Would come back and highly recommend this studio! read more

Regina is amazing! She is so professional and accommodating. She will not tattoo you until you are truly satisfied. She takes the time to really provide options for your tattoo ideas. Her work is exceptional and she is so gentle and quick. Def will be back!!! read more

This review is long overdue. I initially found Regina through IG and coincidentally one of my coworkers got a piece from her as well. When I saw my coworkers' tattoo, I knew immediately that I wanted my next ink to be done by her. After filling out the form online, I received an email back from her assistance about a week later. From there I waited about 2 months for my appointment. A couple of days before my appointment, Regina texted me and told me my idea wouldn't work well in the area I wanted. We ended up texting back and forth and Regina was able to work with me to get what I want. In the end, I really liked Regina's design and it came out amazing. Even with just the template on I was super excited. When she was done, I kept looking and staring in awe and even now that it's been almost a year I still can't get enough of it. Regina works super fast and even purposely tackled the more sensitive area first. I don't think she's working during SIP, but I highly recommend her! read more

From scheduling to aftercare instructions, Regina was amazing to work with! She is kind, funny, and incredibly talented. I cannot recommend her enough, but truly her work speaks for itself. Thanks again for the great massage and burrito recommendations! read more

My aesthetic is clean and simple lines which is what drew me to Regina Push's work at Gold Leaf Ink. I'm a swimmer and wanted a kelp tattoo on my shoulder blade and she drew up 3 unique and absolutely stunning designs for me to choose from (it was a tough choice, because after seeing them I wanted them all), made sure I was happy with placement and sizing, and made quick work of the piece. It only took 30 minutes! My piece healed quickly and I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Months later, I'm ready to return and add more to it. read more

If you're looking for a dope artist that specializes in fine line details, botanicals and geometric shapes then Regina is the one to go to! I contacted her years ago for a small cover up and she did an outstanding job creating a mandala thigh piece for me. I was super pumped to find out she was opening up her own shop and traveled from Seattle to start another project with her. I sent over some ideas and booked the trip and was extremely happy with what she drew up for me. She is always super pleasant to converse with and has a down to earth personality which is a plus as well. She is efficiently fast while tattooing and has a graciously light hand. The new shop is super clean and cozy, my boyfriend was comfortable enough to take a quick nap on the furniture and the vibe in the shop was totally soothing while getting tattooed. We had a sweet playlist going all afternoon and we were lucky enough to be blessed by a visit from her studly dog Booberry which totally made our day. I'm super happy with the start to my sleeve and can't wait to see Regina again this summer for another round! I'm extremely happy that I found her yelp and instagram years ago. Check her out, she's a boss!!!!! read more

Holy shit!! I don't think any amount of words can do Regina justice. Her shop alone is extremely aesthetically pleasing, the space feels very calming and comforting, yet "cool" at the same time. Regina's work speaks volumes for her talent. She's a super dope person and I loved her playlists even more. My whole experience working with her was super easy and i had complete trust in her. Not to mention how fast the whole tattoo process is, which is clear indication she's talented and had a lot of practice nothing is rushed. I'm already planning my next tattoo with her already. See you soon Regina! read more

Regina was the sweetest person ever! She greeted me immediately when I walked in which I really appreciated. She made me feel really comfortable and told me how sternum tattoos work and how people usually react to it. She said I handled it like a champion and it was a really quick tattoo (a little under an hour). I love her artwork so much and the environment was the best in there. I definitely recommend going to Regina for a tattoo, she knows exactly what she's doing and she's just a great person in general. read more

I researched artists for months before I found Regina and I am so glad I waited. She responded quickly and was flexible when I had to make adjustments to my appointment date.
