Best place to get a tattoo in the Bay Area!
Cool staff and great artists!
I had the best experience getting tattooed by Roo! She was incredibly gentle and so light-handed that I was asleep during most of my appointment. 🥹 She was also so sweet, patient, and took the time to keep replacing the stencil until it was absolutely perfect. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and her work. Her space is super cute, clean, and has such a great vibe. And Roo’s artwork is absolutely insane, her talent speaks for itself! I couldn’t be happier with my tattoo and can’t wait to come back for more. Highly recommend! Thank you Roo!! 🖤✨
Highly recommend this spot. Sofia drew me a beautiful owl from scratch, advised me on how to make it flow with my current tattoos, and provided great communication throughout. Everyone who works here is so friendly, great place to spend a few hours and walk out with some outstanding ink!
