Such an amazing group of people at Prospect Ink (check out their Instagram to see all the amazing pieces they're putting out). I have another appt coming up and couldn't be more excited! The vibe is always welcoming and relaxing, clean, and everyone is so friendly. You truly feel like you belong when you're there. Sharing photos from my husband and I's most recent visits

The place is probably one of the coolest shops I've seen just cause it's right on the beach and has a great view. All the artist and employees were just amazing. 10/10 experience.

Healed really well with his instructions and he also gave me his card if I have any questions or concerns. Matthew did my sister's and it was also her first tattoo. She's very happy and loves hers as well and he did a fantastic job! When I was getting my tattoo, you can feel the community vibes if that makes sense. People would come in and everyone in the shop knew who they were and they were making plans for a community block party for the 4th. Seeing and hearing that made me so happy cause not only are they talented but they are down-to-earth and wants the best for everyone who visits them.

He pays attention to detail, cares about what YOU want but still giving his professional input, making sure to explain everything on the way so you feel safe and informed.

Koyo Studios' artist, Koyo Corey Ray, did my full-sleeve tattoo AND my permanent make-up!! For the…read moresleeve, he designed the whole piece based on my life story and the aesthetic I wanted to portray. He did a beautiful full color, Japanese-themed art piece, that literally looks like an impressionistic-realism painting on my arm. For my permanent make-up he did my whole face. Eyebrows with pencil shade, eyeliner with lash extension, two-tone lip color, and even blush! He made me look and feel so beautiful! He was able to accentuate my facial features, and knew the best way to do my make-up! He also gave me very detailed advice on the tattoo process and how to care for my tattoo and my permanent make-up. My permanent make-up has lasted for two years with NO touch-ups! It still looks like I just got it done!! I can just wake up and go to work every morning with no need to put on any make-up! And I look so professional and ready for work or fun!

My wife and I were visiting San Diego and per usual decided on an impromptu tattoo. I had…read moreresearched a couple of shops knowing we'd walk-in to one at some point. Axiom was everything we could've hoped for! Alex greeted us and was super sweet and kind! From the moment we walked in we felt so welcomed. Xander was our tattoo artist and I am so happy we were able to get connected with him. He was so friendly from the get-go. We showed him our tattoo idea (sun and wave vibe), he took them and tweaked them to be our own individually. He was patient and had no problem tweaking the designs based on our input. Just a super cool dude!! We truly enjoyed our experience here and will definitely be back (future trips and when we move back ;) ). Thank you Xander for capping this trip off for us. We will be back to see you for more!!

10/10 would recommend this place. I have gotten 2 tattoos from here already with Xander. The shop…read moreit's self is nice and even though it's in PB I haven't really had a problem with parking. Everyone is nice and it seems they each have their own niche. While I have been there I notice they all seem to be very friendly, informative and honest. Xander is great. My first tattoo here was a silhouette of my kids and he recently just did a floral wrap on my arm and this wrap will eventually finish my sleeve. I appreciate that he takes his time. He had a couple of suggestions I didn't think about, that I honestly think makes the tattoo look better than what I initially envisioned. Xander is very friendly, feels like you're hanging out with a friend while getting a tattoo. Every time I go in, I walk out with my next idea LOL

I came to enigma to change out my jewelry. I had a threaded stud that was literally stuck in my…read moreear. I had tried and tried to take it off but it wouldn't, so I thought "it's time for the professionals" LOL anyway i walked in and was immediately greeted nicely as they were finishing up with another client. Ruth was the piercer I saw, and was laying down on the table with my head turned to the side. i was prepared for the experience to be difficult and unpleasant since it was so stuck. I kid you not, I didn't feel anything ?? genuinely, ruth took out the stuck jewelry then put in two hoops (2 helix piercings but one stuck) and all i felt was her gloves brushing against me, as it normally would. By the time she told me was done I thought oh maybe she forgot the second piercing but sure enough she had taken the stuck stud and put in 2 hoops. TL;DR All I know is Ruth is incredibly gentle and fast ! Definitely coming back!

Many cute gold pieces - which I find is rare. I've seen three diff piercers so far and maybe 4 diff front desk staff and all have been so friendly. Definitely recommend ! Parking is lowk hard to find sometime so maybe expect to come 30 min early to give yourself time to park and walk to the shop. Got a double helix in July and it's been healing well. Got it downsized and staff were nice and informative

My experience with Natalie was exceptional. Guru tattoo was highly recommended by a trusted artist…read more When I stopped by to request a consultation, the receptionist recommended Natalie based on the style of art I shared as concepts. I appreciate the thoughtful conversation we had about 3 concepts I was considering and her desire to connect to better understand my hope and vision for a 2nd tattoo. She was open to a fluffy vaulting panda idea inspired by a Japanese-style watercolor painting with structure in black ink and a few green accents as bamboo leaves. She also captured 4 Chinese characters beautifully as calligraphy representing "Surrender" and "Victory." Nat is kind, patient, thoughtful, intentional, and her artwork and passion for art, patterns, symbols, plants, books, and music is inspirational. My experience was 10/10, and I intend to return for additional work in the near future. I highly recommend her and the Guru studio, which has assembled and invested in talented artists who offer outstanding value and customer service with positive energy.
