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.
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 ****!
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
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
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
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!
Couldn't ask for a better tattoo artist! Regina is super sweet, funny and AMAZING!! I will definitely be seeing her again in the near future! Her studio is super clean with lots of plants. Lots of lighting too! She created my tattoo better than I have imagined! Thank you again, Regina!! (Pinsan!)
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.
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!
I am absolutely in LOVE with my tattoo. So happy to have seen Britt, she is such a sweetie and I would love to come back again. Her line work is super clean and she was very detailed. Thank you so much!!!
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.
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 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

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

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

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
