Jas was my artist and she delivered everything I had wanted. I got a piece done for my late mother and she created exactly what I was looking for while giving her professional input as well! The shop was also very nice and clean, great vibes with the all of the artists. I will definitely return to add on to the piece in the future :) read more

Patch Tattoo Therapy - Chest tattoo by Jas - Tattoo Near Me - Tarzana, California

This review is really for Rachel, who is a legend. She took my reference images and guidance to create a great custom piece. I've already recommended her to a couple friends because she was so nice to work with--and is a very talented artist, of course. The atmosphere in the studio is nice and serene. Very clean too. read more

I have had the opportunity to be tattooed by all artists at this shop and can honestly say there is a style here for anyone and everyone. The studio itself is so clean and serene, a massive juxtaposition from most trad street shops. Each artist has taken their time with me from design to execution and made the experience top notch. Definitely worth looking into if you're in the market for collecting art! read more

Have been thinking about what to get as my first tattoo for quite awhile. After finding Jakki (the tattoo artist) on IG, I decided on the most personalized thing I can think of: Yoda's signature. And placed on my forearm at the very spot she would typically get my attention when she was alive. Jakki walked me through the idea concept process, what to expect, had a therapy session as she was creating her artwork, and provided me with aftercare. The inside of the shop was decorated a bit for Halloween. I didn't take too many photos because I was more excited about the tattoo than a review. Pictures were taken afterwards. Ended up parking out front instead of driving by so that I could take a selfie with Jakki. Another person was getting a much larger tattoo done (not going to lie, she was cute! Nice distraction as courage from any pain). Not necessary though because it just felt like how donating blood feels. Very pleasant atmosphere inside. Tranquil and welcoming. Would highly recommend! read more

Patch Tattoo Therapy is a lovely shop. Clean and minimalist aesthetic in the shop. I worked with Jasmine Hsueh on a tattoo dedicated to the memory of my parents.

Patch Tattoo Therapy - Amazing work by Jasmine Hsueh - Tattoo Near Me - Tarzana, California

After years of questioning, wondering, researching, I finally decided to get my first tattoo. I was looking through Yelp, Instagram, Google to search for studios. Then I stumbled upon Patch Tattoo Therapy and inquired about their artists. I got connected to Rachel and she has been a God-send. She guided me through the entire process and answered all my questions. After we corresponded about the tattoo I want, scheduling, and other details, it was finally time to get the tattoo onto my body! The studio itself is minimal and clean. There were NO worries about safety/sanitation. When I showed up, Rachel had her station all ready and prepped. We talked a little bit more about placement, size, etc. Then she started to get to work! Throughout the entire process, she was thoughtful and reassuring - asking how I was holding up every now and then. My tattoo took a couple sessions but it turned out amazing. The amount of detail has me staring at it for hours. Rachel truly is an artist. read more

For years, I had been wanting this Beauty and the Beast tattoo. I knew it would take a special artist to bring it to fruition, so when I found out that Sarabeth had an availability while I was in town, I was elated. I liked that before the appointment, I was sent a link to prep. This is my third tattoo, but they've been a few years apart, so it was nice to have the reminder of what to do beforehand. I found street parking on Clark, behind the shop, and made my way over. Sarabeth greeted me and had me full out a release form before showing me some templates of the art. We decided on a nice size, did the placement of the tattoo, and away she went! The whole process was easy and wasn't as painful as I anticipated it would be. She took her time, and gave appropriate breaks. For my first color tattoo, it was a great experience! read more

This was my first tattoo, and Jasmine was very kind and helped me to feel comfortable throughout the whole process. We discussed design and placement through email and zoom consultation. The studio had a very calming atmosphere and was clean and aesthetic. Jasmine had different versions of my tattoo drawn up beforehand in separate pieces, and she took time to construct the final tattoo in a way that looked best on my body. I love how it turned out and I highly recommend working with Jasmine if you like the ink flow style! read more

One year ago from yesterday, I was tattooed by Rachel at Patch Tattoo Therapy. Rachel was so lovely and made the experience as enjoyable as possible as well as showed no judgement as I was a total pain in the rear to tattoo! Not only did I choose a style that Rachel doesn't specialize in, I also got my *first ever* tattoo on my ribs and was twitching like no other. Despite all of this, my tattoo came out beautifully and I get complimented on it all the time. I have attached photos of my tattoo, one fresh and one a year later, below. Please excuse the poor quality of the more recent picture as I was left temporarily physically handicapped after a car accident so the angle/quality of photograph does not do my tattoo the justice it deserves. Thank you Rachel- I love my tattoo! read more

I have had the privilege of having @rachel_tattooartist tattoo 5 different tattoos for me at Patch Tattoo Therapy studio. There is a nice relaxed atmosphere in the very clean studio. Rachel is an outstanding artist. Designing and producing three beautiful micro-realism tattoos themed after Stephen King books/characters (the 3 colored ones on the inner forearm). Most recently she worked on both a fantastic forearm length Batgirl tattoo and an awesome Superman in flight tattoo that included some watercolor design into the tattoo. Both of these inspired from original comic art that I own. Not only does Rachel do great work, she is a very friendly and professional artist. Constantly checking in to see if I am doing okay, and if I need anything (water/snack). I will definitely be going back to see Rachel for more body artwork! Thank you Rachel and Patch Tattoo Therapy! read more

Absolutely incredible experience at Patch Tattoo Therapy. The studio is not your typical grungy dark tattoo studio from the 90s but rather a warm and open layout that creates a welcoming atmosphere. Parking was readily available and honestly super cheap for LA, just make sure you take a break every two hours to feed the meter again. A huge shoutout to Jasmine! She was amazing from start to finish. I came in with a self-drawn idea of what I wanted, and she was so open to my thoughts while also bringing her own incredible artistic vision into the design. She listened to my ideas and made sure it was something personal and unique. It really felt like she cared about my vision and the importance of the tattoo. I never felt rushed and she took the time to try multiple different placements in different spots with me until I was completely satisfied. The end result is absolutely stunning -- truly my favorite tattoo I've ever gotten. The attention to detail and her artistic touch made all the difference. She also frequently checked in with me during the tattoo to ensure that I was comfortable and they also have snacks and drinks on hand if you should need them. The entire process was smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable. I left with more than just a beautiful tattoo. I left with an amazing experience that I'll always remember. If you're thinking about getting a tattoo, I can't recommend this studio especially Jasmine enough. I read more

This update is for the 11-month post-healing progress, and ongoing customer-service oriented communication between Patch Tattoo Therapy and myself. Kevin kindly reached out to let me know that my tattoo has been featured in a Los Angeles Times article two months ago (I know I'm a bit late.)! Isn't that neat!? See it here: https://www.latimes.com/lifestyle/story/2022-07-11/best-plant-tattoos-that-have-meaningful-stories On to the current state of my tattoo: It has healed wonderfully after the initial session, and free touch up about 2-months later. It's still vivid and beautiful and I receive compliments on the quality of Jingxi's work all the time! I still highly recommend Patch Tattoo Therapy if you're considering a first, or new tattoo! read more

This was my first tattoo, and I could not have had a better experience. I'd been following Sarabeth on Instagram for a while because I really enjoyed her art style, and then she posted a flash sheet where I genuinely wanted every single piece (hello, art nouveau ). I rushed to put my name in for one, and she got back to me right away. Before my appointment Sarabeth was very communicative about how I should prepare and included parking spots in the area. (There's metered parking in front of the shop but you have to re-pay every 2 hours.) The studio is very nice and extremely clean, with plenty of seating, lots of natural light, and lots of space between chairs so you don't feel cramped. When I came in, Sarabeth greeted me and was very friendly and communicated how the process would go. I signed consent forms and she offered snacks and beverages if I needed anything to eat or drink before starting and if I needed a break. My friend was with me for moral support and had a place to sit and read while she waited for me, and the couch even had a phone charger available. I told Sarabeth it was my first tattoo before we started and she let me ask all the questions I wanted and explained what she was doing throughout the entire visit. The session went by *so* quickly and I was very comfortable and at ease during my appointment. After she was finished, she had me hang out for a while to check on me and then took some photos, covered my tattoo with a clear bandage, and then let me ask even more questions about aftercare. Y'all, the final piece is as gorgeous as her sketch and I will 100% be coming back. I was so anxious for my first tattoo but Sarabeth made it a fantastic experience and I'm so excited to get more of her work in the future. I feel like art! read more

As I write this today, four days after my session, I am in true awe of Jingxi's work as an artist in being able to create an essence in the form of her unique artistic abilities. From the initial outreach for the plant party, seamless communication with Kevin & the tattoo day energy exchange that was felt... everything exceeded expectations & was simply amazing! Jingxi has exceptional experience in not only creating the art piece but also helping to find placement that will really align and shine on your body. I had an "idea" of where I wanted it to go, and when she decided on perfect placement-- I almost started crying because it just felt so right. Honestly, words will never be able to describe the incredible experience it was to be able to surrender full trust into Jingxi creating a masterpiece to live on my body. I love the color of my tattoo. I love the placement on my body. I love the energy I felt while I was on the table for almost 8 hours (with breaks, of course). I walked out a new person, a real rebirth and aliveness awoke within. Thank you for all that you do -- Jingxi & Kevin. You two are a dream team! read more

I got my tattoo done by Rachel and it was by far the best experience getting a tattoo I've ever had. Her work is meticulous and beautiful and she was able to understand my confused explanations of what I wanted completely and re-create my vision perfectly. I am especially happy with her line and color work as I cannot detect a single flaw in the tattoo and I keep getting compliments on it wherever I go! The tattoo is a work of art! And Rachel herself is extremely sweet and patient not to mention talented. As for the general vibe of Patch Tattoo Therapy, the location is beautiful, well decorated, and inviting, with everyone working there being very friendly and willing to do anything to make you feel comfortable and at home. I'm also very happy with the pricing! All in all I'll definitely be going back to Rachel and this tattoo studio for all my tattoo needs! read more

I enjoyed the time I had in the shop and my time with Rachel and Jing! She did a fantastic job!! Cant wait for her to do my other future tattoos! read more

Absolutely one of the best experiences ever! The overall level of professionalism, patience, attention to detail and overall product far exceeded what I had imagined. This was my first tattoo experience and didn't really know how it would turn out. I knew the general idea of what I wanted, but didn't really know how to convey that. However, I was fully supported throughout this whole process and made to feel comfortable at all times. I Would recommend this place to anyone who wants literally a piece of art on them or just something that makes people stop and stare. read more

I am so happy with how my tattoo turned out. I was able to get my hands on one of Jingxi's dragon flash pieces. It looks amazing! At first, the tattoo was designed for the back, but I wanted it on my leg and Jingxi changed the design a little to fit the shape of my legs. One of the things I really appreciate about Jingxi is how much thought and care she puts into her art work. Not going to lie, it took a while for the stencil process but after the work is done I can appreciate more on why it took her so long. She was trying different spots, angles, and really try to fit the design to your body shape. It just feels like it belongs there! Another thing is that she is always very honest with you. She will communicate with you explaining why she thinks one is better than the other. You can completely trust her because she will make sure to do what is best for you! As for communicating to book the appt, Kevin responds really quick and explains thoroughly about the process. He was super nice and very helpful and booking Jingxi went really smoothly thanks to Kevin! Thank you both for such amazing work! I am so so so happy with my tattoo! Thank you for allowing me to have your piece!! read more

After thinking about getting a tattoo for 15 years, Jingxi's designs finally pushed me to go for it. I originally found her on Instagram and, luckily for me, her studio is pretty close to where I live. I managed to get a booking in for a consult, where we talked about what I wanted in a tattoo, placement, and size. I am a total newbie, so it was great hearing placement and size suggestions. I originally settled on having it placed on the back of my shoulder but, after she mentioned that I wouldn't be able to see it there unless I looked in a mirror, I decided to change the placement to my thigh, a decision I am so, so happy with! From the consult, to the first and second sessions, to after, Kevin was very communicative, professional, friendly, and helpful throughout the process. During the sessions I felt comfortable, cared for, and was continually informed throughout the sessions. The tattoo is healing wonderfully and I absolutely love everything about it, from the size, placement, and design. For me, having this tattoo is having some of Jingxi's amazing art. I highly recommend Patch Tattoo Therapy and hope to be able to fit into another booking one day! read more

I had my tattoo done with Rachel and she gave me exactly what I asked for. I loved how much of a perfectionist she was during the entire process from start to finish. She made me feel so comfortable and always made sure I was doing ok during the tattoo. The healing process was great and I had no problems. I've gotten so many compliments and I'll definitely be going back for more with Rachel. read more

She was very thoughtful and we took breaks when I needed it. They had La Croix in the shop so I got to drink that while I was there which is so nice and they also had good snacks. Very chill vibe. Rachel also let me play nonstop Noah Kahan and gab about how much I love him so she really is the homie. read more

I got a Crimson Peak-inspired tattoo from Sarabeth Kett. There were other people in the studio that day, and everyone on staff was professional, and immediately welcoming. It's a really warm environment, which allows you to relax. It was decorated for Halloween at the time, which made me feel even more at home. I immediately loved Sarabeth's design, and the application was no different. Putting color in can hurt, but she was so gentle, and kept me informed every step of the way. It was such a good, relaxing atmosphere, I was barely even aware of the pain. My tattoo is not even fully healed yet, and I've gotten so many compliments on it already! I love it so much, and would 100% go back for another tattoo there. read more

My experience at Patch Tattoo Therapy is going to be hard to top. Jingxi and Kevin are absolutely two wonderful people that make up the heart of this studio. My tattoo is a "re-do" of another one I'm currently getting removed. I felt my previous one did not capture the essence or what I wanted. I live in Pittsburgh and had researched many tattoo artists on my coast from New York to DC, whereas there were many talented, I ended up expanding my search to the West coast. After google searching, then researching on social media sites, I landed on Patch Tattoo Therapy. Just looking at the website, you can tell there is something special there. Communicating with the shop was efficient and clear. I was given detailed information about their process, asked questions about my expectations, and then set up a video consultation to discuss my idea. During my consultation, Jingxi was helpful, informative, and also realistic and truthful of what could and could not be done. I greatly appreciated her guidance as I am someone that needs help visualizing my creative ideas. I do want to note that I had to push my appointment even further out due to my parent being unexpectedly diagnosed with a terminal disease, but Kevin and Jingxi were kind and empathetic. They were willing to work with me despite the fact that they did not have to do that. Well the highly anticipated day of my appointment finally came. When I walked into the shop, it was bright, clean, and calming. Kevin went over the initial paperwork with me and let me know about all the amenities available to me. After that, Jingxi showed me the tattoo she designed for me. It took my breath away, she was able to take my random messy thoughts and create this beautiful piece that was exactly what I wanted. She really put so much effort and her artistic talent into this. Jingxi really took her time to talk with me where exactly I wanted to place the tattoo and the pros/ cons of each area. After I selected where on my arm I wanted it, she meticulously put the stencil on. I could really tell that Jingxi was really taking her time and paying attention to every single aspect of this tattoo. The tattooing process was comfortable; we took a few breaks and she also verbally checked on me throughout the process. Jingxi was very cognizant about my comfort (more so than myself). I was initially booked for two days but she was concerned that a second session so soon would be incredibly painful for me, so even though it was a longer day for her, she was able to finish it in a longer one day session (she did not rush at all). I also enjoyed chatting with Jingxi and learned a lot about her process. I think it's so wonderful that someone of her caliber is not only focused on doing tattoos but also educating those up and coming artists about her techniques. This honestly has been a one of a kind amazing experience. I highly recommend coming here as I can't see myself going to anyone but her moving forward! read more

Working with Jingxi and Kevin was such a dream! From the initial consultation to the final work, I'm so happy with the process and result. Jingxi is an incredible artist and I absolutely love the work she did on my hands. I didn't have a concrete vision of what I wanted done when I scheduled my consultation, all I knew was that I wanted something on my hands. We worked together to discuss designs and limitations with hand tattoos and she was upfront and honest with me about her opinion. When I saw the final work the day of my appointment, it was perfect. I've had a few tattoos done and I'd say this was, by far, my most comfortable! The space is really cozy and cute, we took breaks as needed, and Kevin and Jingxi were both so sweet. I can't wait to come back again in the future! read more

I was looking to get my first tattoo to memorialize my daughter who passed away due to leukemia cancer and seeing Jingxi's work on Instagram gave me this intuitive feeling that she had to be the one to do it. Jingxi is a star! For my tattoo, she decided to blend Chinese style painting and realistic imagery. She is extremely strong and creative in both. Not only does she have the "skill", she holds herself to a high internal "pride of ownership"/"quality of work" standard. To say that I am happy about my tattoo is an understatement. I'm grateful. I'm thankful to Jingxi and Kevin (Manager of Patch Therapy). It's perfect and beyond my imagination that she could create something like this. I'm glad I went with my instincts and trusted them. Again, Jingxi is a star and a gift! read more
