I booked my tattoo from out of state because I'd be visiting on vacation. I sent my ideas and when I arrived, we worked together to make it perfect. Ken did such a special tattoo for me in honor of my late brother. The entire experience was amazing from booking to checkout. I cannot recommend them enough. My tattoo…
Ken retouched one existing owl tattoo and did a new initial tattoo. He was extremely calm, friendly, fully understanding what I was looking for and was VERY knowledgeable about how to convert and existing 10-year-old smudged tattoo into a beautiful one! I told him what I was looking to get out of the rework and…
I was thoroughly impressed with Yustyna's professionalism and personable demeanor during my recent experience. She demonstrated meticulous attention to detail regarding her positioning, ensuring that I felt comfortable and well-informed throughout the whole process. Her expertise in executing the tattoo was evident,…
Shingken is the most talented and precise tattoo artist I’ve found in LA, I trust him completely and would not go to anyone else!
I had a great experience at Hermosa Ink Collective. The space itself is clean and appealing, with natural light coming in from the full length glass windows and classic rock playing through the speakers. The staff were polite, friendly, and professional.
Came across this tattoo shop here on Google while trying to find a place to get my husband’s first tattoo done spontaneously. They took us in and I decided to get one as well. Shingken did my tattoo and I love his attention to detail and how he kept making sure I loved the positions the amount of hearts, if I wanted…
Thrilled with my tattoo, which was sort of a fix of an old one that hadn’t come out how I wanted it.
Shingken is a true master at his craft. This took us 7 hours with some breaks to eat and stretch etc. I'm beyond happy with it. The attention to detail, the fact we came up with the design together and he executed it perfectly. I can't say anything but good things about this artist. Also the shop itself is awesome,…
Great experience. Very professional. I was with Kaye. He was so patient and is great in fine lining.
Kaye was a great artist love his work he was super friendly had an amazing time there will definitely be coming back for touch ups
Very kind and they are doing a great job.
The best!
kaye was an awesome artist to get tattooed by!! great vibes and stellar work. definitely recommend checking out the shop and getting some art by kaye!!!!!
I wish there were more stars!!! This was the best experience! Sophie was so sweet and light handed I swear i could have taken a nap! Place was super clean and every one there was so nice and welcoming! Highly recommend!!!
My sister and I called ahead for a walk in piercing and tattoo apt. Trisha was able to get me in for a tattoo that day. Made me feel really welcomed and comfortable right from the start. She had me send her the design and asked for placement beforehand via text which gave her time to prep and made the apt so…
If you looking for a traditional Japanese tattoo you will not be disappointed. Ken is a very talented and amazing tattoo artist, very kind and friendly. Both me and my wife have gotten work done by Ken and needless to say the results have surpassed our expectations every time.We will definitely be getting more work done by Ken!! Definitely recommend!!!!
I’ve had 3 tattoos done by Cihan. He never ceases to disappoint. A versatile artist. In my opinion he’s world class.
100% recommend, particularly Ken!! He worked with me until my design was absolutely perfect, down to the smallest details. He is so patient and detail-oriented, and his work speaks for itself. This was a challenging coverup project but also one that was very meaningful to me, and he perfected it. Will be a loyal customer!
Cihan was very accommodating as I didn’t have an appt. and was only here for the night. I’m not a talkative person and he just let me enjoy the peace and quiet. Loved the feeling of not being interrogated. His work is incredible and his script is the best I’ve ever seen. He’s worth traveling for.
I couldn’t be happier with the work Sofia did on my tattoo! I came in with a piece I wasn’t in love with, and she completely transformed it. She took the time to listen to what I wanted, offered great ideas, and skillfully cleaned up the design into something I’m now proud to show off. Her attention to detail and…
Sophie Hart is the BEST! Besides being very talented, she is caring, kind, and very patient as this was my first tattoo. She covered a hideous scar and it’s completely and cleverly camouflaged. The shop is pristine and Sophie practiced superior hygiene/sterilization throughout. The rest of the artists and staff were…
They have some great tattoo artists who are super helpful and patient. Cihan is a really talented artist who I highly recommend if you need a coverup to go to him but honestly if you go to Sofia or Bruno they will do a great job too. The reviews are legit
The shop is clean and smells nice and the staff were all patient and accommodating. I overall had a good experience and my tattoo is beautiful.
Bruno was really a great guy who cares about the quality of his work.. felt like an old friend putting a peace on me that will carry memories and good times for a lifetime.
My daughter and I got matching tattoos. Bruno was great - communicative and talented. We love our tattoos.
Sophie, my incredible tattoo artist, has done amazing work for me before. When I returned to LA, I eagerly anticipated getting another tattoo with her. The entire process was nothing short of incredible. The shop was spotlessly clean and exuded a friendly atmosphere. The staff was incredibly helpful and attentive…
Ive gotten multiple tattoos done now by bruno and he is the best single needle tattooer! Amazing personality, very personable and treats you looe a true friend - thank you bruno, will always come back for more my friend
Sof is very good and knowledgeable! I’m having fun every time I come!
Loved the establishment. Bruno did an amazing job and I’m so happy with my cover up!
I had such a great experience getting my tattoos done with Rich. He did 3 small tattoos for me, 2 of which were touch ups on old tattoos. His lines and details were perfect, and the whole experience of being at the shop was so smooth and easy. I can’t recommend Hermosa Ink and Rich enough! Thank you Rich! I’ll be back soon!
