Had a really good experience with Lloyd. Am really happy with my design it looks amazing. The atmosphere is also very welcoming and calming.
I couldn't be happier with my new tattoo! Kaye is amazing, super friendly, and made me feel completely welcome. The studio is impeccably clean and professional. Being a tourist visiting on a trip, this was the best souvenir I could ask for. My tattoo turned out incredible, and I will definitely be back to get another one in a year! Thank you so much!
Kaye was awesome. The tattoo parlor was so comfortable, extremely clean, the staff was so nice and great to chat with while we waited and even after we were done. Veryyyyyy inviting. Pricing was great. Kaye was so professional. I have 8 tattoos already and Kaye was so light handed it was so refreshing. It was such a…
Walked in & had a great experience with Yustyna! Gave me the perfect fine line tattoo I was wanting.
Will be coming back for any other tattoos I get - Ken was super thoughtful and precise.
Kaye was a very talented artist, Hermosa Ink is a great studio to book with!
I had a great experience! The shop was very clean and welcoming, and the artist (Kaye) was professional and efficient. My fine line tattoo came out exactly how I wanted, and the whole process was super fast. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for clean, precise work!
Excellent experience with the parlor and with Sophie. She took her time with the design, and really wanted a successful tattoo for me. She succeeded :-)
Kaye was very sweet and made sure that I was comfortable the whole time. He listened to me and doubled checked everything and had a quick response time.
Shingken is absolutely brilliant! His focus and attention to detail was amazing. He was methodical, careful and patient. His line work, shading and ability to create 3-D is fantastic. Shingken is a true artist.
Aka Airen — Ken was great! Wow the precision on my sacred geometry tattoo. We spent the first hour planning. He listened and reviewed pictures of what I wanted, then using AI tools and all kinds of techniques, we got started on the design and lay out to get the geometry right. It’s really the first time I’ve seen…
2nd tattoo with Sof and I absolutely love it! She’s gentle, creative, and does amazing work each session. Will definitely be coming back for more
Amazing experience with Yustyna. She made sure the tattoo location and size was exactly what I wanted. She’s very patient. Highly recommend! (:
Clean and amazing !!! Perfect experience. So happy. Love the professionalism and it was so awesome.
I went to get my very first tattoo on Friday March 13th & it was honestly such a great experience. From the moment my best friend and I walked in everyone was very welcoming & professional. The lady at the front was so sweet and made it such a smooth process. Kaye did my tattoo & I was very nervous, but he made sure…
Great shop. Very professional and friendly. Got us in quickly, too.
Saw my guy Shingken not too long ago. Great studio w/ plenty of parking on nearby streets. Great vibes at Hermosa Ink, can't wait to get back!
Just got another tattoo from Shingken. As always, it turned out so dope! Love it! I'll be back again soon to continue with my patchwork sleeve.
My husband and I wanted to get matching tattoos for a while now and we were so happy when we found out about Hermosa Ink Collective. The place is super clean and organized and Kaye did a great job on both of us and made sure we were comfortable in every step of the process. We will definitely come back and I highly recommend this spot for first timers.
This shop was awesome. Everyone had a great attitude, was super friendly and very helpful. The piercer, Brandon, was very informative on hygiene practices for my nose piercing along with walking me through what to expect in the piercing process. He also gave me a lot of great information To help me best choose my…
I was visiting CA for the first time and wanted a sticker to commemorate the visit. Great experience and should I ever come back I would visit again.
We are in town from Chicago, and searched for a place that was good at fine line tattoos. We are sooooooo glad we found Hermosa Ink! Ken, and Yustyna were amazing artists that gave us exactly what we wanted! We had such a great experience there! Vibes on vibes! 10/10 recommend.
Sofpma did an amazing job on my tattoo!! I’m very happy with her work!
Shingken was great! He has a gentle hand and was very patient and helpful in choosing style and placement of tattoo.
Excellent attention to detail. Yustyna was thorough and genuine.
This is my 2nd tattoo at the shop. It’s a really cool vibe. Everyone is so welcoming. Shingken (Ken) did a beautiful tattoo of my mother's handwriting. I have been thinking about this tattoo for a while. I lost my mom 9 years ago. And now every time I look down at my arm I can smile and think of her. Thanks so much Shingken.
Awesome tattoo shop! Great atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff. I highly recommend them! Ken was my artist and he does incredible work.
I love my new tattoo from Bruno Townse! We worked together on my design, and he did a fantastic job! Very clean, professional shop.
Professional, attentive, and highly skilled. Absolutely recommend. I’ll be going back for any piercing or tattoo needs, and referring my clients as well!
Stopped in here with a friend on a whim to get some cute fine line tattoos and had a great experience! Bruno was really professional and such and has great experience. He brought my little tomato dream to life. 10/10 recommend - Thank you Bruno!!
The studio is super friendly and welcoming - everyone there has a chill vibe. Ken is an exceptional artist. The care he took guiding me through the process was so helpful. His work speaks for itself - he is a virtuoso.
Ken was great from start to finish. Made my daughter’s drawing come to life and walked me through it with patience and kindness. Took such good care of me and was done in under 30 minutes as promised! My first tattoo and he was just the perfect person to go to! No rush or anxiety with him. He was efficient and my…
Cihan was great. I had never had a better tattooing experience in my life. Everything was so clean and affordable too but the detail on the piece alone was incredible. I had gone to other tattoo shops and they could come up with exactly what I wanted but he was very helpful and helped with custom tattoos too. I will only ever coming here again
Everyone is so helpful and friendly! A really hands-on experience and I’ve gotten THREE tattoos here now :) Bruno, Sof, and Ken are all very friendly and ensure you’re getting the tattoo you really want, especially in terms of placement. Always asking questions and making sure everything is up to your standards. I’ll absolutely be back!
Amazing session with Bruno. He brought the vision of my ask to life in a couple of minutes. Super professional and sociable person. I had a great time and thinking of my next tat! Came back and had another great session with Kaye! Super awesome people here and the most talented artists
I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Bruno Townse at Hermosa Ink Tattoo. I’ve now had seven tattoos done by him, and with each one, he continues to surpass my expectations. His work with extreme fine lines is nothing short of masterful — the precision, detail, and care he puts into every piece is…
Have been driving by this place for some time and finally decided to stop by to get to know an artist before pulling the plug on my first tattoo at this spot. Bruno was awesome. He was patient and understood the importance of positioning and sizing for my tattoo. Absolutely love it. Cant wait to return for more!
My mom and I got a mother-daughter tattoo and we booked with Trisha! She was super cool and polite. She made me feel welcome and was super quick as well.
Hermosa Ink is a great shop with a wonderful staff. Bruno is an amazing artist. He works quickly and thoughtfully perfecting your piece. His fine lines and detail is amazing. Highly recommend the shop and Bruno!
This was honestly the best piercing experience I’ve ever had! So clear on their aftercare instructions, informed me on the entire piercing process as well! Very flexible and very talented tattoo artists! Made sure everything was just right before they perfected it with ink! Definitely recommending this for everyone…
Everyone at the studio was super professional and very kind. They were so good that they even gave me better options than I had thought of. My yat is absolutely gorgeous.
My daughter and I were walk-ins. Bruno was friendly, fast, and fair. Our line work looks fantastic.
Sofpma was the artist we were privileged to have create a beautiful tattoo for my daughter This was her first tattoo and Sofpma went above and beyond to make it a fantastic experience Sofpma was meticulous in her cleanliness as well as her knowledge of what to expect and aftercare Sofpma is a gem do yourself a solid check her out 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Sofie is as profesional as a professional tattoo artist can be. She has extreme patience, an eye for detail and a steady hand. 10/10 do recommend getting tatted by her!
I had a great experience. This was my first tattoo and I’m so happy with the results! Bruno was kind, answered all my questions and the design was exactly what I wanted. Thank you!
Took me as a walk-in and was in and out in only 30 minutes with a great tattoo!!
Cihan was awesome to work with. The shop was clean and professional. Most importantly he took the time to make sure I liked the design, making edits, and felt comfortable. I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend.
Bruno did a great job for me once again! His lines are precise and clean and the free touch up was very appreciated. I'll be back soon and would recommend Bruno to anyone!
I'm using my friends account to post this;) I just went with my sister and had the absolute pleasure of getting tattoos from Sofpma at Hermosa Ink Collective, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! Sofpma's patience throughout the entire process was remarkable. She took the time to work with me on developing my…
The staff were very friendly, helpful, and gave an amazing experience for my first tattoo. Cihad was just as skilled as he was patient with me in working together to make this art happen. I was never led in one particular direction or another, yet still given constructive conversation when making the decisions on my…
Was on Holiday in Los Angeles and find Hermosa Ink. My Artist Cihan was Great and do a Great Job . He is very gentle and Comfy. When i Visit LA again i will come again 🫶🏻
The detail and shading from Bruno is great! This was a touch up on one from almost a year ago.
I came there as a walk in and right before we wanted to start, I had to leave bc of an appointment. Cihan was so nice, I could come back some hours later and I love my tattoo so much! The atmosphere is so relaxing and everyone is so nice! :)
My experience with Cihan was top notch. He is a kind and thoughtful artist who takes pride in his work. It was obvious Cihan took time to consider my concept and the examples I provided while infusing his own artistic skills into the design. All before I arrived for my appointment. I really appreciate his willingness to collaborate and also his honesty.
Amazing experience with Bruno. He does great line work. Highly recommend Hermosa ink
I went in to Hermosa Ink Collective and had a great experience. I met with Sofie before hand to discuss a design that she custom made for me. The atmosphere was great, very welcoming and professional. Sofie is a true professional and I couldn't be happier!
I had a beautiful tattoo done by Bruno. I absolutely love it. I was able to get an appointment within 24 hours. I'll definitely be back!
Sofie was kind and professional, she communicated well during the planning process and was accommodating with my schedule. She did a great job on the tattoo and I’m in love with it!
Bruno did an amazing job on my fine line tattoo. I wanted two very small and very fine butterflies on my wrist and I was worried I wouldn’t be able to find someone who could do it as small as I wanted. Bruno’s work is exceptional. He was very professional and kind. Would not hesitate to recommend and I will go to Bruno for future tattoos.
Sophie was amazing and did a perfect job of tattooing my pups paw prints. It was my first tattoo and she made me feel very comfortable. Everything was so clean. Highly recommend!
Bruno has been my favorite artist in the South Bay & has helped design some amazing pieces for me! I will definitely be returning for more artwork!
Bruno was outstanding...really one of a kind! He takes the time to fully understand your vision, and then elevates it to perfection with his artistry. I would highly recommend him to anyone!!!
Sophie was great! Very fast, professional, kind. Pricey, but great work and a good experience. Will probably come back when I have another piece that needs to be just perfect!!
Wonderful place to get tattoos The artist's are amazing. They make you feel as if they have known you forever
Warm welcoming and great precision, amazing talent and so focused on the work. Impressive and so quickly executed ! Go there ! ❤️🙏🏼
Sofie did my first tattoo and she did a wonderful job I absolutely love it. Great customer service and great accommodation.
My experience here was very pleasant and Bruno is a talented fine line artist! Everything was clean and comfortable. The consultation process was thorough and they were able to accommodate a same-day appointment. Highly recommend!
Bruno is so patient and thorough and a talented artist... already planning my next one 🤩
I did five ear piercings with Ashlee and she was so sweet and so comforting since i was so anxious. I loved working with bruno on my first tattoo. It honestly couldn't have been smoother and more enjoyable. :)
Bruno was very receptive to the design we wanted and his line work was amazing
Sophie was very professional, efficient and fun to chat with. She did a fantastic job on my ankle tattoo. Will definitely be back when I’m ready for the next one!
Bruno at Hermosa Ink gave me exactly what I pictured. He’s super sweet and incredibly talented. Go follow him and visit him at the shop asap! You won’t be disappointed.
Bruno could not have been more kind and understanding of what I wanted. The entire process was so easy, professional, and enjoyable. He did an excellent job on my fine line, intricate small tattoo. Not easy. I’d recommend him and Hermosa Ink to anyone wanting more art in their lives. Thank you!
Absolutely fantastic - Bruno’s fine line and shading abilities were exactly what I was looking for!
Bruno was great! Super nice, professional and does amazing work. Sooo happy with my little ghost tattoo 🖤
Great experience! Was a very clean and professional shop that I felt comfortable trusting and very accommodating to my walk-in timing. Bruno is a great artist and would recommend him to anyone seeking line work or single-needle art
Everyone is super nice and professional. I’ve been in 3 times and had a great experience each time!
Got my second tattoo with Bruno. Both times I’ve worked with Bruno it’s been nothing short of mind blowing. The detailing, shading, and line work is truly above and beyond. The steps leading up to it and during the tattoo itself was a seamless process, definitely returning in the future.
Great experience! Bruno was super professional and it turned out great.
Bruno was amazing! Had a simple tattoo done he got me in and out in 5 minutes!
