Tattoo Shops near Martinez

“Loved that I found this little gem! Julia was so patient, and kind and really made me feel comfortable! She spent time with me and helped me find the right piece I was looking for. She placed stencils in multiple places on my arm till I was happy with the placement. She had such a light hand, so my pain level was maybe at a 2 out of 10! I love my two tiny tattoos so much! They are fine line tattoos and they are so perfect! She did amazing, and I will be getting a lot more from her and I have already referred her to everyone I know and I will always recommend her Especially to first timers looking for their first tattoo!
Such a lovely experience! Wish she did my first tattoo and all of my tattoos!!“

“I was fortunate enough to have my first tattoo done by Anna! She's very knowledgeable, kind and hospitable; on top of that she got my tattoo done in under an hour! She made me feel extremely comfortable and safe especially while doing my tattoo. It did hurt but was worth it in the end cause now I have a sick tattoo. I'd recommend her to someone who wants to get their first tattoo :).“

“Great place for daughter’s 1st ear piercing. Incredibly friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommended“

“I was able to work with Monica on my latest tattoo, and she is not only incredibly talented, but also a true pleasure to work with. She creates such a welcoming space that makes you feel completely relaxed, whether this is your first tattoo or your tenth. I highly recommend her!“

“Mario Cruz is the best piercer i’ve ever had!!! He’s so nice too!!!!!“

“Joey is the coolest! His passion for piercing is obvious and his shop has a mellow vibe. He helped me with piercing and jewelry questions and knew all the science behind his answers. He's a master of his craft and a community minded small business owner. I'll definitely be back for my next piercing!“

“From the moment I first contacted Brandon, to the weeks later after I got my tattoos from him, he’s been nothing but kind, patient, and attentive.

This shop is definitely one I’ll return to for any future tattoos. The atmosphere is great, the support I got post-tattoo was top-notch, and the staff is awesome.

This is a legit shop.“

“First time customer, and I felt right at home. Josh S. greeted me the moment I walked in. He offered me water and asked if I had eaten, and if not, do i want or need some. I thanked him and said i was good i ate and had my coconut water with me. It is always a pleasure to have experiences like this in my life. It takes away my anxiety when i am at a new place and don't know what to expect. Josh treated me like family through and through, and my anxiety and nervousness went away. While i waited like 20 minutes (another customer was having ink done) i was offered a seat and was directed the tv, a movie was on and Josh asked if i wanted the volume turned up, i said no, i saw that the close captions were on. When it was my turn Josh asked me if i wanted to watch something during my tattooing. I thank him and said whatever you want to put on im good with it. Josh asked me what I would like done. I told him that my tattoo (back right leg) wasn't colored because it hurt too much when I had gotten it done at DV8 in Concord twenty years ago. Every other tattoo I have didn't hurt as bad as this one did. And I left it with just the outline and a little color on the four leafs/spades of the flower. I asked Josh if he could color it in. He said yes but first was going to touch up the outline because the tattoo had faded to the point it needed to be brought back to life. In less than 3 hrs it was brought back to life and a completely different tattoo, better, faster, stronger, vibrant and shiny. I thought he was going to just add color, but no, he brought his A-game and created a masterpiece. I'm jelly, I want to take off my leg and hold it so I can stare this work of awesomeness all the time. I was blown away by the amount of detail and creativeness Josh dedicated to my tattoo. I drew the tattoo and had the outline done only, because of the pain i felt from the very beginning of the first line. I went back after it healed and tried to sit through the coloring. I started crying because of how much it hurt. So i had the artist stop and said its too much i dont think i can handle the coloring, ever. I never thought it would get finished, but I felt comfortable and in good hands with Josh. He reassured me of his ability to get it done and to be as careful as possible and as gentle as he can be. I'm the kind of person that if I don't feel comfortable I'm walking away and not looking back. I am coming back to have Josh put more ink on me.“

“honestly wasnt expecting much walking in but the service was incredible, i felt like they really took thier time and listened to what i wanted. my phota shoot came out looking amazing, definately better than the ones i paid more for before. i cant stop looking at the pics, they got all the angles right. yeah id go back on a regular basis now, ots my new go to spot.“

“I love coming here to get tatted! Jodie does amazing work and brings my raunchy ideas to life! Staff is always so chill and friendly I always look forwards to getting tatted at this establishment.“

“The artists are phenomenal!! They took my words and descriptions, and translate them into amazing custom artwork. I will be coming here for any future tattoos and piercings“

“Very clean, & professional. I was a walk-in and they took my friend & me, no problem. Marcos is great! He listened to what I wanted and delivered exactly that. It’s cold though in there though, bring your parka. ?“

“I had Slick that day. He’s friendly, made me feel comfortable and has mad skills at design and tattooing.

Cleanliness: I’ve never had a tattoo heal so nicely before. Slick applied a covering that stayed on for about 5 days. I had no pealing issues. It’s bright and beautiful.“

“Absolutely love the work I had done. Rick is a great guy and a wonderful artist. He took my generic idea and created a beautiful piece of art to honor my late son.“

“You guys. Fernanda. Is. The. Best. I can't sing her praises enough. She is so skilled at her craft, pleasant to talk to or just quietly relax as she massages your hair during the wash. She does not hold back any secrets in what helps different hair issues; great educator. I learn a new tip or five every time I go. She is reasonably priced, especially considering the amount of time, skill, and attention she puts into your hair. And on top of how delightful, relatable, and down-to-earth she is, the salon ambiance is unique from any other I've experienced because there's never any salacious gossip. They are so friendly, warm, and professional in the way they talk about people. They treat each customer like a friend, even after they leave when many others stylists take the opportunity to gossip badly about them. That is rare. They are a gem in the rough! And Fernanda is a hair magician. Trust her!“

“Walked in for soonest appointment for name cover up with octopus. Clean shop with TV, music, 5 artists and shop dog, very chill vibe. Chris was able to give out my information to all artists and Lavinia was able to fit me in next day. I just let Nia draw the octopus and start inking without any hesitation or looking at size or placement. Hours later we had to call it and schedule a return to finish. Lavinia’s persona is so wonderful, creative and exemplary skills and conversations were amusing.
Got an earlier appointment to finish octopus and turned out spectacular. So happy with it had to make another appointment for other arm. Requested a koi with waves and whatever she thought would look good and let her be creative.
Had another great session at the shop with cool conversation with artists Jake and V while Lavinia worked on the koi. Turned out epic and happy again so on to the next appointment for some back art.“

“Very nice and accommodating. He made sure to listen to what I wanted and provided great consultation. Will go to him again.“

“Man where do I start, Odie was my artist, he was super responsive and coordinated well up to the date we worked on this project together, I had the idea of what I wanted and gave him a rough sketch and I asked him to make it better, and what can I say the results speak for itself! He delivered! We had a great conversation throughout the session, super chill vibes and a funny dude. Just a chill person to be around. My experience with odie versus other shops I've been to, he has a light touch or maybe it's just the area of skin I got inked, but 75% of my tattoo was a 3/10 pain and highest reaching 7/10. There's parking in the back so your car doesn't get bapped cuz you're near downtown vallejo. Side note he is very well priced and works fast and accommodates. Make sure you have what you want in mind and with his experience of 10+ years he will work with you very well. 10/10 I'll come again if I need work done other than tribal. Check out his instagram page for ideas on how he works and his art. Ig: Sleoin_tattoo“

“Awesome experience at the shop! I booked with Santosxarte for a full outer sleeve, back to back sessions! Santosxarte is a very talented artist who helped me transform my idea with my son's portraits into a masterpiece! Check her ig out for her work!“

“LOVE steve, love his nephews absolute favorite place for vapes, wraps, and batteries.“

“Only place I'll let stab me millions of times. Rik and Javi are the best in the buisness.“
