My friend and I had a bizarre experience here…read more We called ahead to confirm they did inner lip tattoos--they said yes and booked us for a week later. We arrived and filled out our forms. We were the only people in the waiting area and there were two employees sitting behind the counter. Eventually, a man (presumably our artist) came out, sat behind the counter, started eating pizza, and didn't acknowledge us. Without looking up, he said, "I'll take your money, but you're gonna be disappointed." At first we were confused and weren't even sure if he was talking to us. When we said we still wanted to try, he basically said we'd be stupid to get them--while repeating that he'd still happily take our money. He never introduced himself, never made eye contact, and seemed irritated by our presence . I have 21 tattoos and I really appreciate when an artist gives me advice and honestly, I appreciate that he was trying to warn us about wasting our money, but his hostility and lack of respect was a deal breaker. We ended up walking out because I didn't feel comfortable letting him tattoo us. All of this could have been avoided if they had simply told us they didn't want to do inner lip tattoos instead of letting us book. I wouldn't recommend going here unless your want to be ridiculed.

I contacted these people to set up an appointment to cover up a fairly small scar…read more The website seemed pretty interesting and professional. That couldn't be further from the truth. They asked for pictures of my scar and pictures of what I was thinking of putting over it. The reply I received was so utterly pretentious that I am astonished. Apparently, the "artist" will be selecting submissions "by lottery" and they MIGHT get back to me by August (It is currently mid-January)! I don't know if they just didn't like my ideas and couldn't come up with any original ideas, or if they are just soooo very busy that there are absolutely no openings for the next 8 months.... I am incredibly disappointed with their elitist attitudes and, honestly, my feelings are rather hurt.

First - the space is so comfy. The waiting room is cozy and the room where you actually get the tattoo done had everything you could need, homey touches but still extremely clean. There was soft TV playing in the background that you can easily ignore OR pay attention. Second - the art was just amazing. My tattoo took a while and was painful - which I knew it would be - but they really did everything to make it as easy and comfortable as possible. Included are my before and after photos.

When you go to Sailia Tattoo Studio - you're getting more than a tattoo, you're getting an entire…read moretransformative experience. I opted for the Intuitive Tattoo session - and I know we all use tattoos as therapy in some way or another - but this is NEXT LEVEL. For context, I have about 10 tattoos mostly from shops in NY and Los Angeles, so this isn't my first ink rodeo. So many things to rave about, I could write a thesis on how wonderful Sailia is, how enchanting the studio space but let me break it down in some higlights: 1. Beautiful, comfortable and clean studio space - it's an oasis, your calm in the storm of your life. It's comfortable, private, and chill. A gem if you will. 2. Sailia's technique is perfection - immense talent, absolutely impeccable work. A+ with extra credit. A true artist, above and beyond. 3. The intuitive experience does take a leap of faith, but if you're looking for an opportunity to get to know yourself a bit better, heal some lingering trauma, and walk away with a tattoo that teaches you something about yourself - DO IT. It's a truly unique and unmatched experience. I think Sailia might just be magic. Have you ever had someone create something that somehow reflects your entire soul and makes you feel more comfortable in your own skin? Well, that's what Sailia did for me and I'm still a bit mind blown. 4. The creativity, the patience, the sheer artistry - I can't praise it enough. Outstanding experience all around, if you've been looking for some next level tattoo work, you've found the right place. Enjoy the journey!

She is so kind, gentle, patient, and intelligent and I just couldn't imagine going to anyone else! I am so happy with the process and how she really made my vision come to life. I highly recommend Sailia!
