He has great technique, his line work is clean, and you can tell he really takes pride in his work. I've gotten a couple of tattoos from other artists before, and honestly, I regret not going to Will for those too. Just this weekend, I went back to him to retouch an older tattoo that had faded and that I was never really happy with. Will brought it back to life and made it look so much better. I'm seriously stoked with how it turned out. One thing I really notice about his work is how well his black and grey ink holds up. Once it heals, it looks even better. I actually have a newer tattoo done by someone else that already looks older than tattoos Will did for me a while ago. That says a lot about the quality of his work. If you're looking for a talented tattoo artist with great technique, clean line work, and work that actually holds up over time, hit Will up. I definitely recommend him and will continue going back for more! IG: @ironwill_tattoos

She was kind enough to give me an appointment only a couple days after I filled out the request form. Vanessa is amazing at what she does and is such a professional.

I had always meant to do it, but just let life get in the way. I was a little picky about placement but she dealt with me with absolute grace and patience. I was blown away by her work of my little girl and just as impressed with her work of my boy. Thank you Vanessa! No words can truly describe how appreciative I am of how she handled my tattoos. ‍

I absolutely recommend him, and I hope he gets lots of clients. Also, a big plus for the studio location: it's near some good and quick food options (always good when you're getting tattooed) like servandos, in n out, and wake cafe.

AMAZING & PROFESSIONAL SERVICE I've been a customer here for…read moreabout 10 years now and I've always loved their care for piercing education and safe practices. Yesterday I was pierced by Airik, who showed absolute professionalism, tact, and grace under pressure, saved the f****** day after a piercing emergency occurred mid appointment. Not only did he fix the issue but he was very reassuring and helpful to remedy the situation. I would NOT trust my face (or yours) with any other shop in So Cal. This place respects each customer and their bodies and even in case of a piercing emergency, they know exactly how to handle things as safely as possible and keep you comfortable while you wait. I hope the staff see this review, they work so hard and deserve it all! Thank you Airik, Ashley, and everyone involved for all the dope piercings over the years! Hands down the best professional piercing shop in the area!!! Don't go anywhere else :)

Even though I made an appointment, I still ended up waiting, and walk‑in wait times at this studio…read morecan be long -- usually around 45 minutes before you're called, even on a slower day. Unfortunately, the wait wasn't the only issue during my first visit. When I finally got in, the interaction with one of the staff members felt uncomfortable. I asked a simple, genuine question about whether piercings on each side have any meaning. He said he didn't know, which was perfectly fine, but the way he responded afterward left me wondering if he was being sarcastic or mocking me. It felt unnecessary, unprofessional, and honestly made me hesitant to return. These days it seems like you can't ask anything without someone turning it into something political, and that's not what I came in for. I did go back for a second visit, and that experience was completely different -- much more easygoing. I guess it really just depends on who you get. Still, that first impression was annoying enough that I've never looked back since. If you decide to visit, I recommend coming with a friend, especially if it's your first time. Having someone with you can help avoid misunderstandings, give you clarity, and make the whole experience feel more comfortable and supported.

The lines are uneven, the thickness is inconsistent, and the geometric elements are crooked and poorly aligned. The shading is patchy and inconsistent, with areas that look unfinished and overworked. There are multiple OBVIOUS imperfections that should have been addressed before considering the tattoo finished. What made the experience even worse was the artist's attitude when I returned to discuss the possibility of a retouch. Instead of handling the situation professionally, he was rude and made me feel uncomfortable. He also made insulting comments about the amount of tip I gave him. A tip is at the customer's discretion and should never be used as a reason to insult or disrespect a customer. I paid for a permanent piece of artwork and expected professionalism, attention to detail, and basic respect. Instead, I was left with a tattoo that I'm unhappy with, an uncomfortable experience, and the possibility of having to spend even more money with another artist to correct the work. I would not recommend getting a polynesian tattoo here, the reason I came back to this spot is because of Gary, he did me a solid for doing a tiny dragon behind my ear. And for the artist that said he could have charged me more, but instead gave me a discount, buddy..... look at your work! This does not cost $2,000. I would have been more happy to get turned down and I mean, come on, if this ain't your forte and can't do these types of design, then just say so! I could have gone somewhere else and find an artist that is actually specializing in Polynesian tattoo. For me, the poor execution of the tattoo combined with the way I was treated afterward made this an experience I would not repeat.

Looking for a great tattoo artist? Look no further. Jon Bryan at Sanctus Art Studio is your man! He is incredibly gifted, talented and professional. I've had work done by some really well known artists and Jon stands shoulder to shoulder with each of them. Whether black & gray, color or coverup, Jon does not disappoint. He is working on a tribute piece for me and I am thrilled with my new ink. I can't wait to finish it next session. I'll post a pic next week when it's done. Check out his work on Facebook or Instagram and hit him up for an appointment. read more
