“I had a great experience at Mantle Tattoo! Jun was very caring, thoughtful, and attentive to what I wanted for my tattoo. He took the time to understand my vision. The tattoo came out even better than I imagined it, and I couldn’t be happier with the result!”
“Sweet vibes! I came here for a guest artist and have to shout out my guy shanexhall, who did some work on my leg sleeve but everyone is super cool. Will definitely have to come back to get tattooed by a resident artist because their art was rad. My wife got her nose pierced and had a great experience as well.”

He really takes the time to listen to exactly what you want and makes sure you’re comfortable throughout the entire process.<br><br>Not only is his work super clean and detailed, but you can truly tell he’s passionate about what he does. He’s patient, creative, and makes your ideas come to life even better than you imagined. The shading, line work, and overall quality are top tier.<br><br>It’s hard to find an artist who genuinely cares about their clients and takes pride in every piece, but he definitely does. If you’re looking for someone talented, trustworthy, and highly skilled, I highly recommend him. You won’t leave disappointed. Amazing artist and amazing work every time.”
“I have been getting pierced for YEARS. I have never been anywhere like this place. Clean, nice, and very affordable. Highly recommend.”
“Just got my first tattoo here with Lim (Limonadov) and had an amazing experience. I was personally recommended too look him up and was really drawn to his woodcut, engraving styles I saw on his IG. He took painstaking care to craft the final design with me in person and his skillset was apparent within a minute or 2 of watching him work. The whole shop was extremely professional, clean and relaxing and if you are looking for woodcut or engraving styles, I highly recommend contacting Lim specifically. The final piece came out even better than I originally imagined.”

I also think Ian is excellent; his artwork is beautiful and he does a fantastic job with all of his designs. It is absolutely worth waiting on his list until he has time to see you. Highly recommend the shop and the artists who work here.”

“I tried Lindsey because of her amazing reviews and I’m so glad I did. She’s a perfectionist, with a meticulous and mathematical eye for brows. She talked me through every step and consulted me throughout the lamination process so i could have a say on their shape and fullness. She’s also warm and kind, honest and trusting, and brilliant and funny. Go. Go to her. Gooooo!”
“Love getting work done by Jason at Incognito. Their motto of clean gentle service is spot on. Jason is a great collaborator and excellent in his execution. My pieces have all healed so beautifully. In addition to great artistry, the ease of the experience is a big part of what keeps me coming back.”
“Ona did a very great job with my tattoo. Being my first tattoo, she made the experience very comfortable and made sure I was completely sure with what I wanted before she started. She recommended a different spot for the tattoo then what I chose originally and I ultimately chose her suggestion which ended up being the best option and I am very thankful for it! The place itself is very nice and welcoming and offered snacks, drinks and candy! If I lived in LA I would definitely come back again! Overall I had a great experience!”
“2 years ago | lost my breasts to cancer. I never wanted them to begin with but 1 am thankful to still be alive. I wanted a chance to have some normalcy and to be more comfortable in my skin. I found a gifted tattoo artist who is experienced in helping other cancer survivors or to the transgender community. Nora made me feel comfortable and that I matter. Thank you @nora_grace_tattoo for taking me on.”
