My daughter took a real long time to come up with this unique matching tattoos. Felix did mine on my right shoulder to cover up a horrible I have had for 20+ years. May daugher got the exact tattoo om here bicept done by I beleive his name is Cheto, (hopefully that was his name), I just over heard that they are cousins. These turned was perfect we go back 2-3 weeks to have highlights and white added in. I already have Felix working on another tattoo that is a cover up. Then eventually will get a 3rd and final tattoo on my left shoulder. The inside of shop which loooked rather new was extremely clean and everone we came into contact with with was very friendly. Don't let the outside fool you. Very ptofessioanl and accomidating. Going back in July for my ankle cover up! Then will be getting another tattoo lat er in the year. These 2 artist were excellent, did such an amazing job. Also, they didn't hose you on the cost. WANT A BITCHIN TATTOO? Contact them for a quote. Felix and Cheto are phenominal!!!! Want a tattoo, go to Long Beach Skin. On Braodway near the Rite Aid. Yiu will not be disapointed. read more

all i have to say is amazing. very professional, quick response time, friendly, clean, the list can go on.. i'm from norcal and i was on my way to socal for a cruise and i was feeling spontaneous so i looked up tattoos on yelp. long beach skin popped up and i messaged them right away, i got a response within 15 minutes at 4am. i was amazed! he worked with my schedule and fit me in before my cruise. my first tattoo i got was a birthday in roman numeral, and i absolute loved it!! but apart of me wanted more to it, so after my cruise i hit them up again for an add on. i was on a time crunch after my cruise because i had so much planned. but they never fail for working with my schedule. it was a long process for the second session but we managed. the art is so detailed, and wasn't rushed at all. if i were to live in socal, this would be my tattoo go to spot. but most definitely will come back for another tattoo when i'm in long beach again. read more

I put in a lot of research before getting my first tattoo and couldn't find the right artist/shop for me until I came across Chesto's art on instagram. I messaged him about his minimum for a tattoo and we set up for an appointment the next day. He invited me to his private studio and the entire process was a very easy 40mins. He took the reference images I sent and fufilled my request by turning a simple outline crescent moon design into something more intricate and interesting! I couldn't be happier with the tattoo Chesto did for me. The lines are really clean (which was what I was specifically looking for), the little details within the moon shape were done extremely well, and he had such a light hand that it wasn't painful at all. Definitely made the right choice going to Chesto and will be back for more tattoos in the future! read more

Absolutely hands down, the BEST experience I have ever had getting inked. Felix and Chesto are passionate about this and it shows. Chesto did a piece on my arm last week and I couldn't be happier. Between our conversation and the chill home studio environment, I barely noticed that I was getting a tattoo lol. He has a very light hand and really takes his time. I appreciate Long Beach Skin so much for making a special tattoo such an amazing experience. I'll be by for more shortly guys!! read more

I've never gotten a tattoo before, and I have a low pain tolerance, so I was really nervous for this whole process, but Chesto was super nice and accommodating and explained the whole process to me. We met at his house, but it was still a very professional and clean set up, and I ended up paying by donation. As for the actual tattoo: the lines were clean and he took his time! Im so glad that i'm gonna have this ink on my human form for the rest of my life. I'd highly recommend. read more

Chesto is literally THE BEST guy you could possibly find to do your art. He's 100% all about giving you his absolute best. Completely clean and comfortable, super detailed work, can't get any better.

Literally as good as it gets. Chesto is such an awesome, considerate and professional artist. Excellent communication, artistry, and ideas. He takes the time to listen and collaborate and will work with you until you're 200% satisfied. We texted for over two weeks and Chesto took my ideas and rendered the perfect shoulder piece! I highly highly recommend going to Long Beach Skin to have your artistic dreams materialize. Thanks again, Chesto! read more

wonderful tattoo artist did my best friend's tattoo. He was quick to respond, very professional, and super friendly. we really appreciated his willingness to work with our schedule. my friend got a very small tattoo on her back that says 'made in california' as a typewriter font, which because of the size, most people wouldn't do. however he was professional and if we return to long beach, we'll be back here to get another tattoo. read more

I am so happy I came across Chesto. He responded very fast and was able to book an appointment on the next day. His private studio made me feel even more comfortable and he was down to earth and a very sociable person. I was scaredy tattoo was gonna hurt but he made it bearable and it was over pretty soon. I love the end product and the price was fair. Will post a picture once it heals. read more

This artist is amazing! I got a white ink tattoo from him and he was nice and patient. His motto is "do no harm-" gentle, and it looks very natural on my skin. His line work is excellent and his art is beautiful. Lotta tattoo artists are arrogant, big headed, rude... not this guy. Humble, kind. Wouldn't hurt a fly. 10/10. read more
