9099 Soquel Dr Cottage #6, Aptos“This is such a great place to get a tattoo! I got tattooed by Drew over a year ago now and if I still lived in the area he would be my absolute go to artist. Dominique is amazing too, even though Drew was doing my tattoo she was talkative and welcoming. The whole overall vibe of the place was super welcoming and comforting.A year later my tattoo still looks amazing and I get compliments on it anytime someone sees it.Highly recommend this place!“

1025 Water St, Santa Cruz“This past November, I had to put my dog to rest. It was one of the hardest decisions I had to make. My heart was broken because I would no longer have my best friend around. I decided to check about getting a Tattoo. A portrait of Aussi on my left forearm. I was referred to Brittney of Good Omen Tattoo. I don't have any tattoos, so this would be my very first. I met with Brittney, and she asked me to go ahead and send her some photos. We scheduled an appointment. The tattoo portrait of Aussi was magnificent! Beautiful details in every aspect of the tattoo. I never thought I would ever have a tattoo, but I'm so happy I decided to have Brittney, do this for me. She was very informative of what I needed to do to care for the tattoo. She is friendly, easy to talk with and most of all, if you're going to be sitting around for 2 to three hours, she makes it very comfortable. So, if you're looking to get a tattoo for the very first time, Brittney, of Good Omen Tattoo should be the one you choose. You won't be disappointed.“

Since first finding this place a couple years ago, I have gotten different tooth gems done by Tara. She always knows how to make my smile bling ✨?✨ and heart sing!Tara offers her creative touch, if in question of what style to get done. Her artistic vision and soul are ones to trust! She always hold a compassionate ear and is wise in her empathetic knowing. My tooth gem sessions have turned out to be therapeutic too!

22606 E Cliff Dr, Santa Cruz“I travelled down from Sacramento to see Brayton and couldn’t be happier with my tattoo! I had a certain idea in mind and after talking to Brayton I realized he would take my idea and make it 10x’s better. He truly is an artist! Unlike other shops I have been in, he has created an environment that doesn’t feel awkward or uncomfortable. Thanks Brayton! Can’t wait for the next one!“

397 Coral St, Santa Cruz“This shop was amazing! I wanted a very last minute tattoo of my grandfathers handwriting who was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and they were able to squeeze me in but made me feel just as important. Josh was amazing and made sure I was comfortable and everything was perfect. The tattoo is exactly how my grandpa wrote it. 10/10 service. I will be coming back. Thank you!“

I can’t thank them enough for how they made us feel and the work Ally did!!Service: Tattoos“

4101 Soquel Dr, Soquel“So here's my review of Hatton's Social Club! I stopped in with a botched septum piercing that I had gotten done at different shop in San Jose. Naturally I had a lot of anxiety & honestly I was somewhat traumatized by my previous experience. But as soon as I set foot in Hatton's I started to feel at ease!! The shop is beautiful, very clean, welcoming & professional. Yomar (the body piercer) was very helpful, & immediately set all my worries aside. He gently took a look at my nose & we set up a plan of action going forward. When it came time for my actual piercing appointment Yomar did such a swift, painless job I couldn't be happier!! I absolutely love the placement as well!! The whole day after I had it done I couldn't BELIEVE that there was no pain!! THANK YOU YOMAR!! & HATTON'S SOCIAL CLUB!!“

1515 Mission St, Santa Cruz“Mission Street Tattoo is by far my favorite tattoo parlor around! It has incredible vibes and all the artists are kind, warm, and welcoming. I’ve worked with both Ron and Patrick for a total of three tattoos and cannot recommend them enough. The studio is very clean and they do amazing work for a reasonable price. I most appreciate how honest they are about the feasibility and longevity of your design, and their willingness to work with you to modify your piece while still being very authentic to the original. I will definitely be coming back for all future projects!Services: Tattoo design“

628 Ocean St, Santa Cruz“I called about ear piercings two days prior and drove over an hour to find that at opening, the lady wasn't going to be there for an hour. My friend from out of state got a tattoo here on the fly, and her emails for a touch up six weeks later went unanswered. It's hard to brag about a place I've gotten tattoos from with this kind of unprofessionalism.“
“Justin is one of the kindest souls I met on my travels down the California coast! He helped make one of my visions of a tattoo come true. He’s patient and understanding. His studio is professional and so is his work. It’s an honor to have gotten a tattoo done by him.“
