    Came here last night with a group of 8 for the Friday the 13th deal. Absolutely love my tattoos and I think everyone else agrees. Bryan did all eight of ours and I got two that took about 20 mins total. Service was great, love the vibe and music, all the workers were amazing. Definitely coming back!

    Came in with my husband on a night that they did $40 tattoos and we were very comfortable and impressed with our artist, Bryan. He was so cool and did a great job that I ended up booking an appointment for a bigger piece. When I went back for the bigger piece everyone at the shop made sure I was comfortable and the vibes there were great! Definitely planning on going back for more tattoos!!

    My favorite tattoo so far! Bryan really showed out on my moth tattoo. Had such a soft hand I hardly felt any pain the tattoo healed so beautifully! The vibe at this shop is such a good one and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks Bryan & HQ Tattoo

    I came here base on my tattoo artist coming to bjs brewhouse for food and drinks. My tattoo artist name is Blink, overall superb service and clean easy going environment. I got one of my favorite character in dragon ball Z. Quick and painless tattoo. Come all who are seeking a great location.

    Great experience at HQ, John was my artist and he was amazing! He did my first tattoo and he was great throughout the whole process. The place is very clean, well kept, welcoming staff and great environment.

    Came into the shop with some friends right off the back loved the atmosphere of the shop. Getting my first tattoo with Bryan and it went super smooth. It was a great experience. The hospitality that Eduardo showed us was so inviting and just felt at peace with everything. Highly recommend this shop. If it's your first tattoo or how many ever you have they will take care of you.

    Amazing environment and extremely clean. Every artist here is super talented and light handed! If you want a great tattoo and experience this is the place to go. Brian A. got me in and knocked this piece out in about 40 minutes!

    We had a Bachelor party in San Diego and wanted tattoos. The artist John and the owner Lalo we're super hospitable and the talent here is incredible. We walked in and got taken care of. We will be coming back when we visit SD again.

    I'm honestly disappointed with the tattoo artist, @619stephtattoos . First and foremost the piece itself. I had asked for a September inspired Libra Tarot card because I saw her do an Aries piece on instagram and i loved the way she did that. We agree on the size, placement, and the idea, she tells me that she'll message me a few days before the appointment with the design she came up with so i can make adjustments if needed. Steph messaged me the night before the appointment, with basically the same design concept as the Aries card, only difference my card was holding a scale and not a mask and the flowers were different. I was a bit upset but i agree with it because like i said i liked the Aries card, so as dumb as i am I proceeded. I was running a bit late, i did inform the artist and she was fine with it, told me to just come in when i get there. I get there and she's rushing to gather the supplies, we talk about the piece i agree and we proceed. I lay flat on my stomach, she places the stencil and begins. Since the moment she began till she finished i felt as she rushed it, we finish within less than 2 hours i believe. I feel her hitting the bench my arm was laying on as that makes me nervous for the quality of my tattoo. We finish, get told to check out the tattoo and i do. I'm not a confrontational person, so i held my mouth shut... she rushes to wrap the piece which she literally didn't even do. I pay her what we first agreed on and dipped. The second i walk out the wrap falls because she was in such a rush to finish with me that she didn't realize she tapped it on backwards. I'm not planning on direct messaging her as i don't want her to "try" and "fix" it. Really upsetting that now I have to wait for it to heal so i can get a cover up. Truthfully I'm more mad at myself for going to an upcoming artist, trying to show support to only have my whole experience there be really shitty. Also its very misleading when all she posts on her instagram is her best work and i walk out with the shit on my arm.

    do not go here!!!! i got a tattoo from aiyanah and she absolutely destroyed my hand!!! after she was advised by a coworker to not go through with the tattoo she still did and then had the audacity to come to my place of employment and threaten me and say this outcome was my fault!!! i had asked for half of my money for the tattoo back not even all of the money and that is how she handled it!!! and since then i have connected with other people who have gotten fked up tattoos here by other "artists" shame on this shop and the terrible artists they employ!!! my hand is now forever scarred and the emotional damage this has caused me i have no words for!!! she left me with what looks like a severe burn!!! do not trust this shop there are so many other artists that actually know what they are doing and are more professional than this place!!!

    Great work done by Rezzy. Very happy with my quarter sleeve. Great work done by professionals who…read morelove what they do.

    0/10. Do NOT come here…read more I found this artist through Instagram for anime tattoos. His work looked good, so I reached out. He was quick to respond and asked for a $200 deposit, which I sent via Apple Pay on March 5 to the shop owner. We booked for March 16. Leading up to the appointment, he would send random updates on the design, but nothing was finalized. I gave feedback and stayed patient, even knowing they had a Friday the 13th event going on. I didn't hit him up again until March 15 (the day before my appointment) because we STILL didn't have a finished design, which is wild. He tells me he'll have it done that day. Cool. Then a few hours later, I get a generic email saying my appointment is canceled. No explanation. Nothing. So I reach out to the number I sent my $200 to asking for a refund, and instead of handling it like professionals, they get confrontational and start acting like I'm the problem for asking for MY money back. They try to hide behind a "no refund" policy... even though THEY canceled on me. Make that make sense. I added my conversation with the artist, since the owner wants to claim harassment. Judge for yourself. No policy was ever clearly shown to me, and communication was trash the entire time. Instead of owning their mistake, they blamed me and got disrespectful. I only got my money back after I told them I'd file a chargeback with my bank and take them to small claims court. Go read their bad reviews--you'll see a pattern, especially with how the owner talks to customers. Super unprofessional. Save your time, save your money, and go somewhere else.
