Hello everyone! I was tattooed by Jose about a month ago and let me tell you...not only is he a really cool person but did a fantastic job with my owl. I couldn't have asked for someone better! The line work is amazing...he did everything I asked for in the tattoo. I will be going to back to him for the rest of my tattoos and a cover up of another tattoo. Seriously thank you Jose! I appreciate everything!

Brittany C.

Jose and his wife are wonderful people! Jose has been doing my tattoos for the last 5 years, which has been about 75% of all my tattoos. He's the only artist I will let tattoo me and i am looking forward to our next session! Also, his wife does killer eyebrows! Support family businesses!

I'm obsessed and in love with the tattoo Gavin did! He was such a funny and sweet guy! Definitely coming back here!

KC has been my go-to guy for years now. He did my entire sleeve, we started a leg piece, and he fixed a tattoo on my shoulder that another artist did a terrible job on. It looks beautiful now. He's also done the majority of my husbands tattoos. He's clean, efficient, and always available to answer questions or give ideas. I also really appreciate that he doesn't feel the need to constantly talk while tattooing, but will periodically check on you to make sure you're doing okay. I gave him a very basic idea of what I wanted for each session, and he always drew up something rad. I get compliments on my artwork everywhere I go, and try to get everyone I can into KC's chair.

I have known KC for 10+ years. He is not only one of my good friends but also a great person and artist. I have had alot of my art work done by KC. My first visit to the studio I noticed was how clean and neat the studio was from the lobby to the artists work space. Today was a follow up visit with KC to continue on my tattoo. I also met a couple artist Juan, Jim and Jules who specializes in Microbladding they were all very nice. I would recommend KC to family and friends. I hope to get more art work done at Made Grey Tattoo Studio in the near future.

I love Made Grey Tattoo. The shop is clean, nice decor, big tv you can actually watch (generally playing standup comedy), and most importantly, really talented artists that make you feel welcome. I've gotten two larger tattoos from KC and spoken with shop owner, Juan, multiple times. KC, Juan and all the other guys I've met at Made Grey are all very respectful and inclusive. I went to KC via a friend recommendation and now am working on my entire leg with him. A lot of that is because of the talent AND environment that Made Grey cultivates. Although hard to spot from the road (2nd story in a small strip plaza), Made Grey is my favorite hole-in-the-wall tattoo shop in LA. Highly recommend. read more

What an awesome hidden gem private studio! I'm so very lucky I had an "in" with a friend of a friend who hooked me up with the amazing Gavin McKee. We listened to music while he did part 1 of a cover up for me. His work is beautiful and he has such a light hand I almost fell asleep on the table a couple of times. I wish he had done all my work! read more

Had a great experience with Made Grey Tattoo. Called in for a Walk-in appointment. Joseph was awesome. He was friendly and accommodating. My friend and I just got simple tattoos, which looking at his style on instagram is not his usual work, but we are in love with how they turned out. He gave us advice on the font and everything to ensure it turned out great, which it did. He even touched up my other tattoo. Overall, a great experience and welcoming staff. The shop is also very clean. Would recommend to others. read more

Everything came out better than I could've imagined, and Jose was so down to earth and easy to work with along the way. The shop was incredibly clean and bright, and I felt super comfortable during my visit. Not only did my tattoo come out exactly how I'd envisioned it, but I had an overall wonderful experience at the shop and look forward to recommending it to friends. Can't wait for my next tattoo.

Loved my experience. I'm a nurse and I truly appreciated how clean this place was. The sterility was on point. José my artist did a great job, he executed my vision exactly, I'm eternally grateful. I'm a coward ass and he was always kind and patient. It helped having a lovely Mountain View whilst I squirmed in pain. The other dudes were also cool the music was eclectic and it was such a chill cool vibe. Thanks Jose! You're the fucking man bro. I definitely recommend to all especially if you're a first timer they make you feel comfortable and don't make you feel stupid. Unlike the turd ass tattoo places in Long Beach. read more

Jose did my first tattoo yesterday. He did a great job!!! I am unable to make a decision to save my life, but Jose was super patient and worked with me until I got what I wanted. I sent him a horrible drawing of what I wanted and the design he did based off of that was awesome. Two friends went with me to get matching tattoos and he even touched up one of their faded tattoos and made it look brand new again. The shop is very comfortable, clean and they disinfect everything thoroughly. We all had a great experience and would a hundred percent recommend Made Grey and especially Jose if you're interested in getting inked. read more

Jose is incredible! My friends and I met him by chance and he was so friendly and helpful with our tattoo requests. I came in with an idea and he set it up overnight. I came in the next day and it was EXACTLY what I wanted. It was perfect. While he was tattooing he asked if he could add some color to the cross and I loved the final product! He has great skills, is super friendly and easy to talk to, and is just real. He touched up an awfully done previous tattoo (by someone else) on my friend and it turned out so good. I know that I can trust Jose with any tattoo design. His artwork is amazing and he can make anything happen for anyone! read more

She walked us through all the options at different price points in a way that felt completely neutral and respectful. There was no subtle steering toward something more expensive. It genuinely felt like whatever we chose was the right choice. Ivy, my piercer, was incredibly thorough and precise. I really want to stress how pleasant and painless this piercing was. I am talking pain level 0 out of 10. I AM NOT MAKING THAT UP. She is extremely clean in her process and talked me through every step so I always knew what was happening.

This isn't my first tattoo, and my husband and I have been following the after care and have been careful. It's on the healing stage, but you can tell that the corner line differs and there is a smudged area on both tattoos. For both these it was $240 total and done by Chris. I will update this review once the tattoos heal completely.

I booked another appointment with him for 2 weeks later. He will definitely be my go-to person! My only negative experience was when I went to pay. There were at least 3 girls behind the counter doing their accounting for the day. Not one of them addressed me or offered to assist me after I gave them my charge ticket. (Note: They take cash, check or Zelle only since they don't have card reader.) Since it was my first time, I wasn't sure how to proceed but soon figured out that I could use their tel# or QR code to Zelle them. Overall, the staff is very friendly. My nails turned out beautifully, and I will definitely come back! Thank you, Steve and BinZ, for the very warm and quality service!

I tried one other nail salon in town with lackluster results (the gel polish came off within a few days and the nail techs kept pushing more services...), so I wanted to do more research on a good place. After researching for some time, the best reviews came from this particular location -- the next day around noon (Thursday), I decided to call and see if I could walk in, and the gentleman on the phone encouraged me to come on right over! When I walked in, I was greeted by the friendliest staff and the biggest hello from Alex! I was seated immediately on one of the most comfortable massage chairs, and I was in and out of there in 30 minutes with the best service (which is the fastest and most efficient nail experience I've ever had!). I got a gel manicure and a gel pedicure -- and I was treated so well, and I felt so pampered!! There were so many colors to choose from, and the nail technicians helped me out. Alex said that they've been there for 5 years, and the other client sitting next to me also said she's been a loyal customer since the start of their opening. I saw Alex greet people by name and go around to make sure everyone was comfortable. The place was so clean, smelled great (no weird nail salon smells!), & I am so happy with the results, and I will definitely be a repeat client!

I always have such a lovely experience. Tim has been my nail tech for years, and by some miracle we…read moreended up reunited at this salon after I moved. He is truly one of the kindest, sweetest people and always knows exactly what I want, even when I can't fully explain it myself. His attention to detail, talent, and positive energy keep me coming back every time. He's my nail angel soulmate! Alex is equally amazing. He always greets everyone with such warmth and genuine hospitality. From offering beverages to making sure clients feel comfortable and cared for, he creates an environment that feels welcoming rather than rushed. You can tell he truly wants people to have a great experience, not just get through an appointment. His bubbly personality and kindness make every visit better. Andrew is a nail guru and incredibly talented. He does creative and fun nail work, and he's amazing at helping you come up with ideas when you're not sure. What stands out most is how much pride he takes in his work - he pays attention to every detail and genuinely wants the finished product to look amazing, not just for you, but because he holds himself to a high standard. He also has a great sense of humor and is always fun to talk to during appointments. This salon is my fav .. excellent service, beautiful work, and a genuinely positive atmosphere. I always leave feeling taken care of and happy. Thank you for creating such a special place!

What stands out most is their gentle approach as they take their time and never rush or handle cuticles and nails harshly, which sets them apart from many other salons. The space is always clean, and the appointment-only model creates a calm, relaxing environment that I truly appreciate. Their pricing is also very reasonable for the level of care and service provided. I've become a regular client and highly recommend supporting this wonderful local business. Thank you!!

She was so careful and meticulous with the shape and cleaning. I really appreciate her, my toes are now sparkly and smooth, just like I wanted. Definitely x100 recommend going here, especially if you're in a budget or on time crunch. They accommodate both.

I am going on a trip tomorrow and decided I wanted to pay to get them professionally done for the occasion to treat myself. This was a very good reminder of why I do them myself now... The nail tech was nice and worked quickly... too quickly. They didn't trim my cuticles or the skin around my nails. I asked for an ombré nail design, which is shown on their menu and provided a picture of the exact colors I wanted. Another nail tech came and took my phone to pick colors out and just started painting them on some of my nails before the original tech had even put gel on them. It was very odd... the second tech was rushing the first and was honestly doing a sloppy job. The color ended up being super off.. it was a Christmas tree green instead of a blue- teal color. I don't blame her for that, the bottle looked like a different color than the paint. They were also streaky and completely see-through. She asked if I liked them and I told her those things, and she told me the reference picture was see through too (which it was not-I added the reference) but she still redid them which I appreciated. I picked the new color myself, which matched the reference pic more and also wasn't see-through which was way better. The airbrush was having issues, which I could tell was super frustrating to them which sucks. But they just seemed to not really know how to do it very well. They finished and rushed me out quickly without cleaning any of the gel of my skin. With airbrush they usually wipe the paint off the skin before curing it so this doesn't happen. Now it's been a real pain to try to get off. They also did not clean up the sides of my nails, which were all jagged. I had to do a full nail clean up when I got home. Thankfully I have all the stuff at home to do that. The only reason for 3-stars is that the gel x nails are properly applied and should last. Overall I was not impressed. As a new client who is paying good money (and extra for a nail design) I expect some level of care. Also now knowing how to do a proper gel manicure, it's so obvious when they cut corners and rush (no nail/cuticle prep or clean up, only one layer of paint). And maybe don't offer a service (ombré) if you aren't confident in it or don't have properly working equipment. I wanted to do something nice for myself but ended up having more of a headache in the end, and had to pay my hard earned money for that headache.

I love this place! Jose has been my go-to tattoo artist for years and as long as he's in the business I will never go anywhere else. From my small, quick session tattoos to my bigger, eight hour marathon pieces, Jose's skill and eye for detail is unmatched. I know any artist that works in his shop is going to be up to those same standards, so you cannot go wrong choosing this place for your next tattoo! read more

Love this studio! Every artist is talented, friendly and make you feel very comfortable upon arrival. I've been going to KC Kellerman for a few years now and he's absolutely amazing. KC takes his time working with you on making your thoughts translate exactly on paper. I love my work and the color is very vibrant. The second I leave I want more. You won't be disappointed with KC that's for sure! read more

This is my favorite tattoo shop in the area and I've been to a few. It's always clean and everyone is welcoming. It's a fun place to hang out, good music and movie selection while getting tattooed. If you're looking for honest work with top notch artistry, highly recommend. These guys are the best :) read more
