    Back piece, 6-8 months, nonstop!!!

    I been a client of Bowser since a few years back when I moved to Anahiem. Being in a new area, I didn't know who to trust and went to many different shops until I met Bowser. Get quality work done by someone who knows what he is doing than someone who saves you an extra buck. He tattooed my leg sleeve and my entire back. I have sent countless friends all to him to get work done. Don't believe me go check out his Instagram! @Kingkoopa_cs https://www.instagram.com/p/BxsFNuUnuAU/?igshid=1oyc98r9rrtq4

    ThIS review is long overdue and if i can give more stars, i would. My artist as everyone calls him BOWSER, was very professional from setting up the appointment to my last session. I have an existing tattoo from another artist on my right forearm and i politely asked if he work the pieces of details around that - and he did! He would ask what you want tattood, and would make suggestions. YOU HAVE TO TRUST THE PROCESS! He makes the stencil and lays it on the skin and would ask if placement is okay before he even starts. His line work and his control with his lines are just out of this world! His attention to details and shading and how he doesn't over crowd his art is on a different level as well. He is very light-handed. To a point where i was falling asleep Overall, im one big happy customer and it was fun! For the shop : It's very clean, you get that comfortable feeling that the artists are like brothers/family. I instantly felt safe. Oh and complements to the restroom! For a shop with all male artists - it's very CLEAN! Tip: if you are planning to get art done, you need to communicate with the artist and you need to trust the process. Your skin is their canvas, they know what they are doing. Photos posted are after 2 days of my last session with Bowser. I'm still healing and would post updated photos when everything is set.

    Don't recommends they do not anything about pircings, they need to training more. IT is not possible
    Ëlïzabeth Ë.

    they should train more in piecings because they do not know. Bad service, in the area of piercing service they do not know anything not recommend it bad service. En are de pircings no saben para nada, solo lastiman y al final salen que no pueden poner el arete. Deberían entrenarse mas.

    Thank you Chris Nguyen! Chris created this koi fish design to cover-up my tattoo. Much appreciated, love it! Chris specializes in realism; however, has had years of experience with Asian art. Upon going to the shop and telling them I wanted either a samurai mask or koi fish, they immediately told me to hit up Chris. I sent Chris a text and he responded right away. The cover-up ended up being done in 3 sessions. First, just look at the before and after pictures. I will let the work speak for itself. Second, Chris was very flexible with accommodating to my schedule. Very happy patron. Thank you again!

    Fixed the lettering & did the rose!

    Literally a clean and comfortable environment for first timers. I was bit nervous at first but my artist Lino was professional & cool as hell! Same goes to the other artist nothing but good vibes that's what I feel. Therefore he did a really amazing job on my tattoo definitely coming back appreciate you Lino!

    PROOF !

    Ceaser did amazing work, he's easy going & works quickly, I barely felt any pain & he goes above & beyond to make his work look great. I like the fact that I told him what I wanted and he didn't try to change my mind however when I asked for his opinion he gave it to me and had asked me if he could do some shading before he started doing it. I think it's important to be on the same page & I'll definitely be having him do the rest of my work. I'm pretty damn impressed!

    Primos work! AMAZING . Such an outstanding artist with a story. Will definitely be getting more flowers done by him :) thanks primo :)

    Grind Time is the best place to get tatted especially from Chris Ngyun! He has been inking me since 2015 and his art always comes out amazing especially the fact he is really cool on being flexible on scheduling for a tat. Especially the cover up he did for me with the praying hands(first one is before 2nd is after) amazing work and gives good deals too! Thank you chris

    I made an impulsive decision to get a decent sized tattoo, so I hit them up on IG and booked an appointment with Charlie all in one day. Everyone was super chill and inviting! Definitely coming back to get another tat soon :P

    Had a groupon and i got 1000 times what I paid. From start to finish everyone was amazing. Eli killed it on my work!! Absolutely amazing!!!

    Cesar's tattoo placement and free hand drawing.

    Cesar Bee is OUTSTANDING and an AWARD WINNING tattoo artist! Cesar did my tattoo at the Baltimore Tattoo Convention. I spoke with him and explained the concept of my tattoo and what it represents. He was able to bring my vision to life! I have received so many compliments on the the masterpiece, that he created! It was a joy to have Cesar as my tattoo artist, as he is very talented and a kind person! If you are interested in getting a tattoo that is of beauty and quality, I highly recommend Cesar! Thanks again Cesar!

From the very first consultation to the final touch-up, the entire experience was professional, comfortable, and stress‑free. The artist took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, offered great suggestions, and turned my idea into a design that was even better than I imagined. The linework is clean, precise, and super detailed; the shading is smooth and natural, and the overall composition is perfect. During the session, the artist was gentle, patient, and checked in on me regularly to make sure I was okay. The studio was clean, hygienic, and had a really relaxed atmosphere. I'm absolutely in love with the result. It's beautiful, meaningful, and done with so much skill. I highly recommend this artist to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and caring tattooist. I will definitely be coming back for my next piece!

I…read morehappen to find this place on Yelp and I like that the website has the flash tattoos on the site and a good amount to choose from at that. Found a few that I liked and went in to get one done. Immediately felt good vibes from the place and was greeted as soon as I entered by MJ. She is the one who did my tattoo and from start to finish it was about 30-45:minutes. It takes alot for me to feel like I get good vibes from someone and I felt like she did a good job. The location was super clean and professional looking. I'm sure this is a respect thing for other artists, but the one I wanted, the artist wasn't there and she woman at the front said artists prefer to not do work from other artists, which I get and it saved me a few hundred from the one I originally wanted. Next time I'm in the area I'm sure I'll come back for something small. Def recommend and thank you MJ!

Everything was very well organized. There was a table outside to do check in whether it was tattoos or piercings. The girls there were great and explained the whole process, despite being packed, they were definitely cool, chill and provided great customer service. My kids were getting piercings and I was getting a small tattoo. Once it was our turn to go in, we made our payment and waited for a few more minutes. For my tattoo GinaVee was my artist that night and she was awesome. Tattoo placement was perfect. As for piercings Travis was their piercer and I have to say that every single staff member were still courteous and gave good vibes overall. Cleanliness overall 10/10 Now as for most recent visit, I had scheduled an appointment with tattoo artist Apolo for mom & daughter tattoo sesh. It was my daughter's first tattoo and he made her feel comfortable and was very professional. She was looking for a specific color to get done and Apolo did give a suggestion in regards the color due to skin color. My daughter took suggestion and Apolo did some color mixing and was able to get a color to her liking. Now it was my turn to get inked and for me, this was not first time obviously but it was my first time getting tattooed by Apolo. Again, he makes you feel comfortable and is professional. I felt he was done in a blink of an eye with both me and my daughter. I mean it was a small tattoo but only because I didn't want my daughter to do something bigger being that it was her first tattoo. I did schedule with Apolo again for February. I will definitely keep ya'll posted then. Let's wait and see what will be done on me Highly recommend this place and definitely recommend Apolo for your tattoos as well as GinaVee. You can find them also on IG as apolo_tattoos , ginavee_inkart , and you will also find anaheimink714 Also don't forget to get your piercings as well here and you can find Travis on IG as crabbytravipiercings :) Ps If you're always cold like me make sure you take a blanket lol because they blast the AC full on lol
