Tattoo Shops near Pismo Beach

“I've gotten almost all of my tattoos here. Been getting tattooed here since 2014. The shop has a good vibe and all the artists are very professional and welcoming. Keith and Steven do great work and I love all the pieces they've done on me. I'll keep coming back! ?“

“Rennie is incredibly talented! An expert at her art and just overall a wonderful person. I am 68 years old and she created my first tattoo. She understood exactly what I was trying to portray and got it spot on!“

“Highly Recommend this place!!! A friend of mine had told me about this place.
I brought both my girls for their 1st time ? piercings. They had been asking for months to get this done. When we arrived reality checked in and they freaked out. DEANE was sooooo patient, kind, and explained every little movement he did. I don’t have enough words to say how patient he was with both of my girls. He assured them that they were in control. He even allowed them to pinch him back and of course they did not. They were so happy with their ? piercings and have showed it off to everyone. They talk about how it’s all in your head. The don’t stop talking about DEAN. Thank you DEAN! they definitely won’t forget their first piercing experience.“

“Went into to ask for some help with replacing my septum jewelry & all the staff was so incredibly kind, professional, and the shop was very clean. Sarah helped me out and was so sweet and made sure I was comfortable. Would recommend this shop for staff quality and cleanliness!“

“Got my very first tattoo at True West Tattoo and had the best experience with Lisa! My partner and I came in as last-minute walk-ins, and she was super accommodating. I was nervous, but she was so kind and compassionate, which made all the difference. Her line work is incredible, and I couldn’t be happier. The shop vibes were great too—friendly, professional, and welcoming. Highly recommend!“

“Extremely satisfied with Ryan Kim’s work on my new tattoo. I made an appointment with him not knowing fully what i wanted to get and he was able to design something based on some ideas and I really fell in love with it. He helped me plan out the location and colors for the tat really well and I couldn’t have asked for anything better! He’s a super cool and genuine guy with great talent and took his time to make it look perfect, I will definitely be coming back to get some more work done by him. Thanks Ryan you rock!“

“This place is amazing. I'd been looking for the right artist and design to have this cover-up done for a couple years, and it wasn't until I randomly walked in here and talked with Wes that things finally stated to come together. The place is very welcoming and unintimidating. Wes was very responsive and reasonable as I was planning my return to the area to have the piece completed. In the two days I spent having the work done, I was also fortunate to learn about the environment and overall mission of what he is trying to cultivate and grow with the artists here. I also got to see some of the other artists complete their work, and would recommend any of them here for the work you may be looking for. Just as an aside, it is very impressive how well prepared and professional these artists are when conducting such personal and permanent work. Highly recommend, and the tunes were enjoyable all weekend too.“

“Walk in.. celebrating a birthday with my sister and we wanted matching tattoos. Rebecca was so great with us, tattoos were amazing, attitude was happy, spontaneous and just a great atmosphere for the special occasion. Thank you so much Becca ❤️ we will be back“

“Absolutely love this shop. This time I had natasha as the artist for my idea and she did such an amazing job. Time flew by and it was nice to just relax and listen to the buzz of the gun.“

“I’ve gotten a lot of tattoos by Jake and I must say after getting a few realism, tattoos portrait style. The quality of his work is top notch. 10 years later and it’s still looks brand new. He is definitely one of a kind.“

“I am a regular customer here, I get tattoos and piercings weekly. I was so surprised at how experienced and talented the artists were. Buy now that I’ve gotten over 100 tattoos to fill my legs I’m leaving this review to say that this is my favorite tattoo shop I’ve ever been to. I have been tattooed by many artists and been to and large handful of shops. The vibe here is always amazing and I’m made at home every time.“

“Couldn’t recommend Michelle more! I’ve been driving up from LA for my brows since 2021 because the experience is beyond worth it. I’m always getting compliments on my brows and shamelessly share that my micro blading is what makes them pop! Michelle’s studio is beautiful, so welcoming, and the results speak for themselves.
