Second Lobe Piercing done by Tess
Cameron Duque David D.

i've had the itch to get my second lobes done for a few years now and when i saw that ink'd chronicles was less than 15 minutes away i had to make it happen!! obviously i researched beforehand, but with tess she makes you comfortable and informed enough that you could definitely just walk in. all i had to do was sign some papers, sit down, one pinch and i was done! incredibly quick, painless, and easy, which is definitely a testament to her experience. the vibe of the shop was also very chill!! i know for a lot of people it can be quite intimidating to go into a tattoo parlor vs say a claire's for an ear piercing but i HIGHLY recommend it!! i'm looking forward to getting a whole stack done once this heals :)

Traditional/Sailor Jerry Shark; been wanting a SJ style tattoo for a long time!
Jordon H.

Want to give another huge shout out to Inkd Chronicles and artist Anthony! This was my second tattoo at the shop and once again super stoked! My brother was in town and got some work done also by Anthony and was very impressed! My wife and friend were in a couple months ago too to have work done; we simply love this shop and the artists working. It's a place that you instantly feel welcome and excited to come back to. Can't wait for the next one! Cheers guys!

Scorpion done by James (still has the saniderm on, but you get the idea)
Brianna B.

I've been here twice, once in early 2020 to get tattooed by Mario (who I don't think works here anymore, but he did a good job) and then again today to get tattooed by James. James is super professional. He's friendly, responsive, punctual, and did an amazing job giving me a cute little traditional scorpion with hearts. I changed my mind about placement after seeing the stencil on, and he was super nice about moving it and flipping it around. He worked quickly, and was very light handed (the tattoo was on my inner thigh and it honestly didn't even hurt much- that takes skill.) The shop is clean and conveniently located in the historic arts district of Pomona.

Rook Piercing
Kayla S.

Can't even explain how amazing this place is. I got a rook piercing by Brittany. She was super kind, knowledgeable and answered any questions I had! Will definitely be coming back. The vibe was chill and very welcoming. Can't wait to come in for another one!

This was the first piece done with Chandler
Brittany R.

I had been spending the last few months looking for the right shop for specific pieces I wanted done. I found this shop randomly on yelp and got a good vibe so I decided to go in and check it out. Brittany and Chandler were in that day. They were super friendly and gave the best service. I got to chat with Chandler about a piece I wanted and he was super down to get it going. I sent him some references and he gave me some suggestions. He thought about placement, size, and took into consideration that I wanted more pieces done in the future so he really considered the flow of the piece too. Fast forward to the appointment, I was extra particular with how I wanted the placement and he was very accommodating. Once I was 100% on the placement, he got started. I was in and out of his chair within 3 hours and completely satisfied with the work he did. He also mentioned that if I wanted to get it touched up that I could come back free of charge. He went lighter on the shading, but I'm so glad he did. After that, I set another appointment to get my wrist done. I just had that appointment today and I'm so happy with how both pieces have turned out. I set ANOTHER appointment Saturday and will be sending all of my friends to sit with Chandler. His lines are smooth, shading is on point, and he's very considerate. Shop overall has a great vibe! Super clean and easy to get to.

Second piercing on the ear lobe
Alyssa G.

My cousin and I came out last night for piercings and Brittany helped us out. Pricing was great, the shop was very clean and we were out of there in less than 30 minutes. Thank you again Brittany for helping us! She was very professional, knowledgeable and kind. Can't wait to return!

Same day I got it pierced!
Claire K.

After researching and calling around so many piercing shops, I'm glad I decided on Ink'd Chronicles. Aside from getting my earlobes pierced when I was a child, I've never gotten any other part of my body pierced - which is why my decision to get a navel piercing was HUGE for me. Browsing through Yelp, I found many 4-5 star businesses that I was initially interested in. However, some had rude/unprofessional responses from business owners to reviewers which I was immediately turned off by while others never responded to my inquiries (by email, instagram or calls) - yikes. This has not been the case with Ink'd. Tess (piercer) has been super responsive and helpful since day 1. From when I first reached out to her on IG to the day of my piercing, everything flowed effortlessly. Now for the piercing details: I got my navel piercing done for $60 with the cost of jewelry included (which is pretty standard). There were 3 crystal colors to choose from - clear, blue, and pink. After filling out some paperwork from your phone, they'll take you to the back and make a mark on your belly button where you want it pierced. After that, all that's left is the piercing itself! Super quick and easy. My decision to go with Tess has been solely because of her responsiveness, which is exactly what I needed. 10/10 would recommend/come back to her!

Best anime tattoo artist in SoCal!…read more I recently got a tattoo from Wilber (@supa_way_tatt) at Scratch and I cannot recommend the artist and studio enough!! I took a VERY long time to dig through countless portfolios of tattoo artists - there's obviously many talented artists, but so many anime artists heavily reduce the detail in the piece (remove the shadows/lines, simplify it) and often the faces are just the tiiiiiiniest bit off and I really can notice it. It was deeply important to me to find an artist whose portfolio I felt like nailed EVERY. SINGLE. PIECE. and with incredible attention to detail, no matter the character, no matter the size. I wanted a tattoo of Levi from Attack on Titan's eyes - specifically where his 1 eye is bandaged and I was very insistent that ALL detail from the frame I chose would be included. every tiny line, every little shadow and detail. and Wilber NAILED it and got everything to absolute perfection. I was confident with my choice going into the tattoo but I was still floored by how perfect Levi's face turned out. I also was trying to avoid just getting a straight up anime frame and so wanted to put Levi within a bird silhouette (so it was a bit more subtle) and Wilbur was incredibly receptive to my notes and preferences and took literally everything I wanted into account and blended his face into the bird PERFECTLY. It looks seamless and even better than I envisioned. I couldn't be more pleased. The studio is super great vibes - perfectly clean (without feeling clinical or sterile), modern, spacious, easy parking, chill music playing, and overall just really nice vibes. I felt welcome and comfortable and when you're kind of nervous pre-tattoo, that's really important. If you're deciding between a few different artists/studios, trust me, go with Wilber @ Scratch!!!!!

Brought my friend here (my absolute go-to piercing place ) since we both wanted new piercings…read more Today, I got my rook and tragus, and she got her rook and snug. One thing I always appreciate about here is how friendly, caring, and informative everyone is. Whether I have questions about anatomy or aftercare, they always explain everything clearly and never make me feel rushed or confused. And honestly, the piercing process is always way faster and smoother than I expect. I'll mentally prepare for it to hurt and then suddenly they're like "all done!" and I'm sitting there like "oh, that wasn't bad at all" haha. That's also why all my cartilage piercings (3 helix's, 2 tragus's, conch, daith, and rook) have been done here!

1/30/26 - Called about information for a walk in to get my septum and a pair of lobe piercings…read moredone. They were very informative about hours and pricing. Most importantly they were able to do the piercings I wanted the same day unlike the other shops I called. When I arrived, the store was empty, very clean and quaint. Just the two workers opening the store for the day. I filled out the consent form and about 10 minutes later I was called to the back by Melissa who measured my existing piercings to mark them on my other ear. Very happy with her attention to detail. Everything seemed to be sanitized properly as well, at least to my untrained eyes. She went ahead with the lobe piercings after letting me see the spots she marked using a handheld mirror and they turned out great. I had the same experience with the septum as well. Overall, I am very satisfied with my experience here at Mint Condition and Melissa's work, and will always consider this place first when I'm ready to get my next piercings!
