Phoenix Rising Tattoo
Kat M.

I had been planning my tattoo for the last year and had spoke with three different artist before deciding to go with Yuan. She was very responsive and had a very organized way of booking and staying in touch until my appointment. She understood completely what I was going for and showed me some options for style. Day of my appointment I was a little nervous about the pain but she made me feel completely comfortable and broke the session up so I could get a much needed breather. The studio was clean and comfortable. The end result was beyond what I thought it could be. I LOVE the tattoo!! It meant so much to me and every time I look at it it brings a smile to my face. I highly recommend her.

I generally don't write reviews but this studio definitely deserves its due. This is my first tattoo experience, and it's very lucky to meet Yuan. She's super super nice/sweet and really cares about my feelings. I strongly recommend her studio, and you will never regret to meet her!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you want art, go to Yuan. Her attention to detail and knowledge about tattoo art is at a master level. She was so flexible with the process of making the appointment and so welcoming. Her studio is amazing and parking is always available. I can't wait to make my next appointment with her.

Yuan is fantastic! So talented, precise, and easy going. Not to mention her process is clean and practically painless! She designed this cute bee tattoo for my wife and I and it's perfect. I can't wait to book my next session with her. Highly recommend.

I'm happy I found Yuan. I got a small tattoo but just because it's small does not mean it is easy to do. Since it is small and plain it's even easier to see imperfections so it has to perfect. She made sure over and over it was straight and the right size I asked for. She listens to you and executes well! Thanks Yuan!

I told Yuan what I wanted and she was able to deliver and excited my expectations. She designed it and I love her design and how it looks is amazing. Yuan for the excellent job.

Normally I don't like to leave reviews unless I really like or hate the service. In this case I'm happy to report it's the former. I had the best experience working with Yuan, she was so creative and patient going through the design as well as making edits to tailor to what I had in mind. I have a feeling I'll be going back for more ;)

Thanks Yuan

From my first tattoo at the age of 18, now I have just finished my third one. All of these are done by one artist, Yuan. She is definitely my favorite - besides just being excellent at tattooing, she saves my life as she got light hands that never pinch me hard, and that significantly reduces my pain and makes the entire tattooing process much better. Plus, she got great artist taste, cool personality, and a high sense of responsibility to finish all her work as to craft all details to a status of perfection. I will surely come back to her if I come up with something else to tattoo in the future. 100% recommend her.

Yuan is an absolute sweetheart. She was very responsive to emails and texts and was able to schedule me in before the holidays. She spent all the time I needed to play with fonts, sizing, kerning, and the works. I had a wonderful tattoo experience with her. We did a touch up a few months after and she was able to accommodate my request to make the initial tattoo darker. I look forward to working with her again!

Puzzle piece in remembrance of my dog.

I am in love with my tattoo, Yuan, and her service. If you're looking for someone who is intentional with you and your tattoo, she is your go to person. She made my first experience such a wonderful and fun time. She is a must for any person who wants a tattoo!

Hannah L.

I absolutely loved the time I spent with Yuan! She's so down to earth and the sweetest! I don't think you'll ever find someone that'll make your tattoo experience so smooth and comfortable. She made sure to follow all covid regulations making her environment clean and safe. Yuan did my second tattoo in speedy time but with such great detail! I'll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend others to check her out!

We talked for 3 hours while she tattooed one of her flashes on my right shin and it was all around pleasant getting to know her. She is so sweet, professional and such a joy to be around. She really took the time to get the placement to my liking, and I'm very happy to have her original work on me. It is so beautiful!!!

She had drawn a great design based on what I told her I was looking for, and then we spent well over an hour tweaking it and figuring out the exact colors I was looking for. At no time did I feel rushed; she said she makes only one appointment a day so she can spend as much time as necessary with her client. She is very sweet and fun to talk to, and really did a terrific job. I am super happy with the tattoo.

Good tattoos, not so good people…read more I got my first tattoo by Jess years ago. The tattoo was simple and came out decent. The experience, however, was horrible. I wanted the design to be smaller, there was something wrong with the printer that day and the shop assistant had trouble making the stencil smaller. After a couple of tries Jess starts roid raging and slams the clipboard on the counter (I kid you not) and said something like whatever man I'll hook you up, meaning he's willing to tattoo it bigger for me even though I didn't want it that size. Wow, geez thank you your majesty Jess Yen, I am so blessed to get something I didn't want after watching you act out violently. Years later I decided to try again, this time with his apprentice Lucy. I had a phone consultation with her and she agreed to do my tattoo saying that her wait time is 2-3 years. I agreed and paid her a deposit. It's been more than 10 years now and I have not heard from her or gotten my deposit back. When I reached out to her, she tried to gaslight me saying that I missed my appointment. I was never informed of an appointment. First the owner display questionable emotional stability over something a little as resizing the stencil and then his apprentice scams me for a few hundred dollars. Yeah, this place gets negative stars if I could.

She answered my…read morequestions and enhanced my original design with options and gave me several suggestions which I really appreciate. I followed the clear prep instructions and driving/parking directions prior to my appointment. Cici made sure I was comfortable sitting backwards on a chair by adding a covered pillow and was attentive to her work. Once I was wrapped up, I also received clear aftercare instructions. Parking structure is right next door with a 4hr max on most days and longer in Sundays after 1pm with some 1-2 hours street parking but pay close attention to street signs. Payment can be made via Zelle, cash or digitally. Studio is clean, quaint, and conveniently located in downtown Alhambra near many food and drink shops if you come in with friends that have to wait - they can walk around the corner and bring you back a snack or tea. I will definitely come back because I absolutely love love my new tattoo and had such a great experience that I'm excited to get more. Ya know that say.. once you get one tattoo, you're already planning your next one. p.s. All hand-drawn and tattooed by real humans. Non ai generated work. Thank you Gee Ink!!

Just to be upfront, I haven't been inside and this isn't about anyone's tattoo work. This is about…read morethe banner out front, which is pretty obviously Ai generated. For a tattoo shop that's a bad look to me. Tattooing is about as human as art gets. It's someone's hand, their eye, and years of practice. Putting Ai art on the front of your studio kind of says the art isn't worth the effort, which is the opposite of what a tattoo shop should be saying. There's also the fact that Ai art is trained on real artists' work without their permission or pay, and that includes tattoo artists. It just doesn't sit right seeing a shop use that to advertise when it's hurting the same community they're part of. People can go wherever they want, it's your body and your call. I just think it's worth knowing the difference between Ai images and real work from real artists. Before you book anywhere, ask to see the artist's own portfolio and healed pieces on actual clients. The artists inside might be really good and I hope they are. I'd just rather support a shop that shows that pride from the front door.

He wanted double bands around his forearm and Sam was able to sketch it out and do the tattoo on the same day. We were in and out within 1.5 hours. He explained the process and aftercare which made getting a tattoo seamless and less daunting. I was on the fence about getting a tattoo but my friend said if he got one I would have to get one too. I decided to get a runner with an ekg as I thought it was fitting for me. I wanted something small for my first tattoo and easily to keep hidden from my mom (sorry mom). He asked me to send him a picture of what I wanted and scheduled an appointment for Monday at 11am. Once Monday came I walked over and signed the consent form. He then printed out the tattoo and placed the outline on my chest and asked me if it was where I wanted it. Being a tattoo noob I trusted his judgement. After letting the outline dry I laid down and he began working on the piece. He said since it was a small tattoo and mainly lines there shouldn't be much pain and the healing process wouldn't be as long. It took about 30 mins to finish up the tattoo and the quality came out amazing. There was no pain at all and he went over the aftercare as well. I showed Sam this other tattoo I wanted and he said he would be able to do that as well. He says his art style is realism and anime so I can't wait to get more work done by him. He has been tattooing for 2 years now along with his apprenticeship. He told me to message him when I'm ready for my next piece. Maybe this tattoo thing is an addiction and will keep you coming back for more.

SERVICE: To preface, I did not get a piercing here (yet). I lost the back of my earring for my flat and needed a replacement ASAP. Kat greeted me warmly and asked if I needed anything which was very nice. I was browsing and wasn't sure what I wanted. Lev soon came out shortly to help me look for a piece that was in my price range and helped me put them on clamps to hold up next to my ear. This really helped me decide on what to choose as I could "see it" on my ear. Both made me feel so welcomed!! They were both so friendly and cool that I made a mental note to come back to get a piercing from this place. The pieces here are a bit on the higher end but most piercing studios with higher quality pieces usually have the same price range. I ended up getting a cool lil dagger that was within my price range. It was so nice that Kat was able to put in the earring for me and transfer the temporary one back to my lobe as well. I didn't expect that service which was really nice. OVERALL: Love the decor and the vibes! I definitely will be coming back as soon as I know which piercing to get next!

Absolutely recommend this studio!!…read more I made an appointment online for a hidden helix and two lobe piercings, and I had such a great experience from start to finish. 1.) The studio is incredibly clean! Everything felt very organized and sanitary. Each piece of jewelry is sterilized for 7-9 minutes before being used, and the jewelry displays were spotless and beautifully organized by brand. Every piece they carry is gorgeous, so be prepared to have a hard time choosing! 2.) Friendly, patient, and knowledgeable staff My appointment was with Boge, and while I was waiting, Lev helped me choose my jewelry. Both were incredibly kind and patient, especially because I am very indecisive. They never pressured me to choose anything and were happy to show me different jewelry sizes, talk through my options, and help me calculate the total cost. 3.) Honest advice and genuine customer care This was probably what impressed me the most. I originally came in wanting a hidden helix, but Lev actually advised me against getting one at this time because of the potential healing concerns with my ear anatomy and piercing history. They also took into consideration my upcoming events and helped me plan which piercings to get first and when it would be best to get the others. Although I was initially disappointed that I couldn't get the hidden helix, I really appreciated their honesty. They easily could have done the piercing, but instead prioritized what they felt would be best for my healing. That made me feel like they genuinely cared about me as a customer rather than just making a sale. And the customer care went above and beyond! I hadn't eaten before my appointment because I was nervous, and Boge noticed and offered me one of her own chewy granola bars so I wouldn't risk feeling faint. Such a small gesture, but it meant a lot to me. 4.) Fixed my messed up Claire's Piercing I had a piercing on my right ear that was pierced at the worst location as I have a mole there so I never bothered wearing earrings. Boge was able to work her magic and made everything look even! Please see my photos for before and after. Seamless experience (I have a super low pain tolerance and prone to fainting with needles). She was so kind and talked me through it all and let me lay in the chair for a bit before even getting up. I never felt rushed, pressured, or uncomfortable at any point. Everyone was welcoming, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable, and I left feeling really confident about my piercing plan. Thank you to Boge, Lev, and the rest of the team for such a wonderful experience! I'll definitely be back when the timing is right for my helix.
