Classic Tattoo Studio

07/13/2008 Posted by wolfmoonsshadow

I had never had a tattoo before. My sister and I wanted to get matching tattoos and we already had a design in mind. We had gone to another tattoo shop first where the artist was very zen, and tried to talk us out of first our placement and then our design trying to get us to buy one of her designs, that would end up costing a lot more than we had wanted to spend, besides the fact that they were very generic. We were trying to combine elements from our indian and celtic heritage. instead of even looking at what we wanted she proceeded to try and sell us her indian designs which i have to say were designs of indian heritage by people who didn't know anything about it. very "how white man" . We left and saw the Classic tattoo studio up the street I had been in there once for the taste of fullerton nights and has met a couple of the artists there. When we went in we showed them the pictures of what we wanted and the guy we were talking to went and got one of the arists who then designed a tattoo based on what we showed him. It was gorgeous!! My sister and I loved it and they made up two stencils of it and we sat down and they started. The artist who did mine was Shawn and he started out really slow so that i could get accustomed to the pain (it is on my inner wrist). He was very considerate during the tattooing and the shop was very clean. My sister and I are both in the medical feild and we felt comfortable with their safety and cleanliness there. It was a great experiance for someone getting their first tattoo.

Pros: Great customer service! they really listened to us and responded to our needs

Cons: small parking lot but there was parking was available

I got two tats there about a year and a half ago within a month of each other both from different artists and both are amazing and awesome. every day people ask where i got them and i always recommend these guys. when someone asks which artist i tell them any of them they all rock. even after a year the tats look like i just got them a couple months ago. my friend just got his very first tattoo and asked me where he should go of course i sent him here. now i have the money for a new one and you can bet I'm going back to these guys. i trust them 100% with any work i get done. i don't think i would ever go anywhere else. knowing the quality of your artists work is very important when it comes to tats and these guys win hands down.

Pros: Everything about them was great not a single bad thing

So I got a tattoo here about three weeks ago and I had this guy mike Taylor do my tattoo. All I can say is wow I had an amazing experience, the shop was so clean and every one in there was so nice. They made me feel at home and everyday i get complemented on how good my tattoo looks. I would highly recommend this shop to anybody looking for a great tattoo.

Pros: everything

i had a large tattoo done near my breast and guy named frank did it. he was wonderful and very sensitive to my privacy, although i believe it was more for his sake than mine. the parlor was sterile and the service was wonderful and quick, as was the post-care instructions. The price was also a deal for the size and placement of my tattoo. Highly reccommended!

Pros: clean, not crowded, pro staff

I had a tattoo done here whilst on holiday last year, I came back to England and everyone has complemented on how good it looks and I intend to fly back at some point to get another one, it will be well worth the air fair!

I have eight tattoos so far and five of them are from this place.....they are extremly talented here no matter who you choose, and very nice, some tattoo place make you feel like you shouldnt be there, are are a little intimadating, but they are really cool at classic, Ive recommeded this place to every one I know. And when I get complimented on my tattos I let them where they were done....this is the only place I will go now for my ink work and suggest you go and check it out your self.....

Pros: Comfrtable atmosphere, nice people, great artists

Cons: limited parking lot, busy street

It seemed like I waited an eternity to turn 18 in order to get my first tattoo. When I went in all the guys there were really nice and made me feel comfortable. Jon did my tat and was very gentle. I tell everyone about them.
