Berkeley D.

Ona is an amazing and talented artist!! I wanted a coverup of a previous tattoo and she was more than willing to work with me on the concept. She was communicative and transparent about the whole process, as this was only my second time getting a professional tattoo and my first getting a black and white tattoo. The price was a bit expensive but absolutely understandable given her talent. I definitely look forward to booking with her in the future. Attached below is the tattoo a couple days after the session vs a month later!

Love my sunshine tattoo!

What a great experience! From communication and booking to getting the work done with Maciej, great experience! I would absolutely recommend! Second foot tattoo, and 2nd tattoo over all, and Maciej was so good at his profession. Hardly any discomfort. I'll definitely take the drive again.

Studio setup

Unprofessional and inexperienced artists. Artist was an hour late to our appointment and totally screwed up my tattoo. Promised a refund and never got it. Save yourself the money and the Lazer tattoo removal, and go somewhere else. $150 for this crap. Pretty sure I had Irina.

I am SO happy with my tattoo from @stas_byron. He was so professional and the shop was very clean. Just make sure you arrive early because parking is tricky and you'll probably need to park in the public lot ($10 for the whole day). Couldn't be happier!!

Definitely not Ona's best work. This side doesn't match underside, is sloppy, and bc she went too deep, there is scarring.

*No way to contact staff via phone *Staff is NOT at ALL friendly *Ona is EXTREMELY and unnecessarily heavy-handed, which resulted in raised scarring and prolonged healing time. I understand it was a coverup, but the inked areas she covered weren't much. The old tattoo was basically a bracelet of fine lines. There was a lot of skin that was "virgin", so there was no reason for her to dig as deep as she went, and I really didn't need her to keep telling me, "1 hour of pain is worth a lifetime of beauty, "...with a smile on her face as if she enjoyed administering the pain. *Ona also tried to overcharge me ($700) grossly. I still ended up paying $500 + 20% tip for ink that took about 1.5 hrs and was mediocre compared to the other work she has posted. * Bathroom access for clients is unacceptable. They give you a key with vague directions to exit the salon and enter into the dirty, abandoned business building next door, to guess your way, all the way to the back where the restroom is located. It is not clean. It is not safe. *No parking or any validation offered for the (not so cheap) neighboring lots. Ona was no friendlier when I returned for my complimentary touch-up. Which was supposed to have been scheduled months prior, but healing time was exceptionally slow for aforementioned reasons. I thought since it was a touchup it would be quick and relatively less painful than my first session, but knew it would hurt because it was my wrist, which is very petite. It was quick all right, because she rushed through it sloppily and It felt like she dug in even deeper. Although this time around, it seems to be healing quicker, it is definitely raised and looks like the scarring will be permanent. I am still kicking myself for going back to Ona for the touchup. I cannot in good conscience recommend Ona. She is a straight up sadist. Mantle needs to vet their artists more carefully. Hiring decisions should not be based solely on their work; it's equally important to consider how they interact with the public and clients, as this aspect is crucial to the job. Because of my experience with Ona, I will never step foot in this twilight-zonish tattoo parlour again.

Irina was super nice and did a great job. The communication with whoever I was messaging at first was great. Whoever greeted us at the door had an awful attitude and if it was her who was supposed to be our artist that day I would have left. Everything else was good.

In process with new design
Karina M.

Ona did my tattoo and is so beautiful! She put her own designs of what I wanted and I can't tell you how greatful I am to ona for bringing my chiari tattoo to like.

Mantle has a couple of locations downtown. I went to one they just leased off of South Olive Street. The owner/artist was very communicable about setting up the appointment, which location to go to, and replied to my text messages in a timely manner. If you go to the studio off of Olive, there's a parking area across the street for $5. The studio can be hard to find (they didn't have a sign that you can see from the street). The artist I had was actually visiting from Seoul and they did an amazing job. He didn't speak much English, but his work speaks for itself. It did 1.5 hours to redo the design I wanted (we went back n forth) and to set up, which kind of sucked because my tattoo took 4 hours so it was 6.5 hours total there. The artist was nice and they had a nice setup to take a photo of your tattoo afterwards. The cost wasn't costing me an arm and a leg either. It was $1,300 for the realism tattoo on my arm. I absolutely love it, especially the galaxy. I would recommend him 10/10.

This piece was a cover up

and I couldn't be more happier with how it came out ! Irina is amazing :) def recommend

Completed tattoo - blue watercolor butterfly
Luna K.

Don't be sketched out by the lack of information about the studio, extremely fast response times, and suspiciously good reviews--this place is not a scam! On Thursday afternoon, during a visit to LA, I was feeling a bit bored, and so naturally the best thing to do was to book a last minute tattoo appointment. I've been on a mission to fill any empty spaces on my right arm, so I went with the most original design--a butterfly. I searched around for any parlors that accepted walk-ins or had quick appointments, as I would be leaving on Monday. After a Google search, I found Mantle Tattoo and liked the work that I saw on Instagram from them. The staff at Mantle Tattoo booked me for Saturday evening right away. That's how quick they are! My tattoo artist, Minji, or tattooist_ch on instagram, was very kind and accommodating. She sketched out the tattoo with me, taking note of all my requests, and within 10 minutes we were ready to go! The actual tattoo process itself was smooth and virtually painless. Minji has a very gentle hand so I barely felt it when she was tattooing me. It was cool to watch her process and see how she made it all come together. I'm very happy with the end result that I got! Additionally, I asked Minji if she could touch up some of the lines on my jellyfish tattoo (done by another artist who is not local) and she was more than happy to accommodate my request. Mantle Tattoo is a great place to go whether you need a quick fix for your tattoo addiction like I do or want to get your first tattoo. I highly recommend this studio for getting a quick and awesome tattoo.

This place was wonderful! Super clean with great vibes nice and helpful staff. My tattoo artist, Jun Kr, took the art my sister made and made it come to life. The tattoo was quick and the lines were balanced and perfectly placed. I highly recommend!!

I finally went ahead and booked a virtual consultation (being in San Diego). From the very beginning of the process, submitting the request to book, through the consultation itself, and coming in to get the tattoo, I had the most amazing experience. I felt comfortable that I was in the hands of the best team at this shop. Rob was super responsive with scheduling and questions. June created a beautiful design based on my references and feedback and added little touches that made it even better. When I showed up to my appointment, I was a little anxious, but it was such a cozy, beautiful studio and I felt welcomed and at ease by Rob and June. June took such great care to cover up the scars I wanted covered and make it look beautiful and flow well with the natural curves of my leg, and made sure I was comfortable throughout. After she finished her work, she brought out the professional camera to get the best pictures possible and promptly sent them to me the same night. You can tell she takes pride in her work (as she should!) I will absolutely be back for more tattoos in the future, and maybe add more to my leg sleeve. It was definitely worth the drive from San Diego to work with the right artist who made my vision come true!

There aren't the words to express just how comfortable and PAINLESS my experience was at the 3rd St…read moreOak and Poppy. Yesterday I got my septum pierced for my birthday. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted warmly and immediately made to feel at ease. The shop itself is very clean and welcoming. The jewelry is beautifully displayed. I just wish I remembered the name of the woman who helped us because she made such an impression. 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. The room itself felt like a doctor's office in terms of cleanliness and professionalism. I wanted to write this because there aren't many reviews here about septum piercings specifically. When I was searching for where I wanted to go, Oak and Poppy kept coming up but I didn't see many septum reviews. Ivy is a true professional in this work. It's clear she knows exactly what she's doing. The staff cares about the customer's experience and it shows every step of the way. If you're looking for a septum piercing and want an experience that feels comfortable, this is the place to go! Thank you Ivy! Thank you Oak and Poppy!

She was back and forth, but now at 7.5, she decided she was READY. She almost convinced my husband to do it at the mall, but I'm glad they didn't. I heard about this place from other moms at her school, and I'm so glad we went. They squeezed us in immediately and were just great. Always spoke directly to my daughter, explained the process. Went though jewelry, explained all of that. I didn't get the name of the person who did the piercing, but he was amazing. He described everything to her, had her do deep breathing. It was done quick while also taking his time with everything. She felt secure and brave, I'm just so happy with her experience! I will definitely be going back after looking at some tattoo work as well, it all looked great.
