I came back for my second tattoo with artist Alexis Rodriguez. He’s extremely adept at realism, and did great work adapting the photographs I wanted into tattoos. The shop itself is clean, stylish and chill. All the artists are friendly. It’s a very relaxed atmosphere. Later that same day I brought my daughters to get their ears pierced. Quick, relatively painless and again, very clean.

Came in for piercings. Amanda is amazing--warm, professional, and put my mind at ease throughout the whole process. The receptionist was also friendly and helpful. The studio is beautiful; very spacious and tons of natural light from the ceiling skylights. Highly recommend.

Came in for Friday the 13th flash day - an incredible experience. The place was packed and I waited several hours for my turn, but it was so efficiently ran and the communication and expectations were clear so it was no problem. I was able to go home and wait it out and come back in plenty of time. Everyone was very kind and attentive, it was my first tattoo and came out amazing. Efe was phenomenal to work with and a great artist! I looove my tattoo! 10/10 recommend.

Amanda is the best piercer out there!! She’s super sweet, professional and her energy makes you feel calm and safe. She’s so creative and designed my ear to make a ”whole look”, so happy with it. The jewelry is very cute and all my piercings I did with her healed so well! Really good vibes at Alium 🫶🏼

I had an amazing piercing experience today. Amanda was so precise and made me feel at ease. I was able to get pierced with a piece I brought in for no extra cost. The post will be downsized in one month. I’m recommending this studio to everyone!

It’s a beautiful vibe and a beautiful place run by beautiful people making beautiful art. I had the pleasure of spending 12 hours there yesterday and enjoyed everything except the lack of nearby snacks. Bring your own snacks if you are going to be there a minute. Even this old guy amongst the brilliance of youth felt at home. The great Maria Kuerten guest tattooed me and it’s one of the great tattoos in modern times. Thank you to Maria and the shop for a great experience!

My friend and I went to Alium to get ear piercings when visiting LA. We went to Amanda (crupthepiercer) and she was so lovely! She helped us pick out the right jewelry, made us feel comfortable and safe. I’ve never had a piercing heal so well!! Also the vibe of the whole studio is amazing. Will definitely be back soon!

Review №17

Im relatively new to California & had to shop around for the right tattoo parlor to go to and all the ones showed beautiful talented work including Alium but what made me choose Alium was based on their very welcoming positive vibe that I loved! Im so happy to have found them! Great customer service and my artist, Wolfe, was fantastic and funny and adorable!! It was my sons very first tattoo and Wolfe was so great with him and tattooed our own design...we got matching tats of the ASL symbol for I love you that has our initials, K & J hidden within it. Wolfe did a perfect job! I would highly recommend going to Alium!! We will definitely be back there for our next tattoo!!

Both artists I went to, Zoe and the owner of the shop Joaquin, traced one of the references I gave them line for line. When I told Zoe I didn’t want a direct copy the morning of my appointment and if she could please change it, she got very upset and was rude to me. So I went to the owner of the shop, Joaquin, who assured me he would come up with an original design based on multiple references I gave him. When I saw the design, it, too, was traced directly from two of the references I had provided. I told Joaquin I went with another artist and thanked him for his time, and he messaged back “For sure 🥰 we do removal too! Let us now when you need it!” Really wanted to give it a shot but very rude and unprofessional artists who steal others’ work.

I had my first large tattoo done (back piece) yesterday. I was very nervous beforehand, but Alexis made me feel so relaxed. He didnt rush me into anything and helped me change the design multiple times to my liking. His humor and patience is what got me through the full day session (I am no fan of pain). The end result is sooo beautiful!Ive been to a few studios in LA and I have to say this one has the best energy until now: beautiful room, super clean, everyone is so friendly. The mix of cultures there is truly inspiring, they are all so talented, it feels like one big family.I cant wait to go back to finish the piece! I would recommend this studio to everyone that wants some quality stuff done.

My husband and I came in for piercings with Amanda. What a great experience. Amanda was fantastic both at our piercings and the experience. The space is open and fun, music was great, and its very clean, comfortable, and welcoming the minute you walk inside. Im getting a tattoo soon, and believe Ive found the right place to go!Update 1/25/24 - Consulted, booked, and completed Phase 1 of my tattoo with Camilo.

This tattoo shop was beautiful and clean. The energy was calm and inviting making me want to never leave. They had a great selection of music. The staff were super nice and interacted with me making me feel comfortable and at ease. I got a tattoo done by Emily and she was absolutely amazing! She really listened to what I wanted and was patient with me when I was trying to figure out placements and when I was indecisive. She took her time and really made sure that I was happy with the final product. You can tell she really loves the art and is dedicated to the craft. Highly recommend her! I will definitely be going back to get another one done by her!! Check out her instagram melted.w0rds :)

I had wanted a very particular tattoo for 8 years when I finally came across Alium Tattoo Studio. From Arcas incredible design to Joaquins impeccable execution, I am more happy with this tattoo than I can adequately put into words. The tattoo itself can speak for itself. Suffice it to say, me and my new blue jay are over the moon.

I had an amazing experience working with Simon at Alium Tattoo! From our initial consultation, it was evident that he is not just a skilled artist but someone I could trust and collaborate with. We discussed my ideas, bounced around creative concepts, and Simon brilliantly crafted a design that exceeded my expectations.The tattoo session itself was a pleasure. Simons steady hand and attention to detail are evident in the exceptional work captured in the photo. Im thrilled with the outcome and cant wait to return for my next piece. Alium Tattoo, and Simons talent, have made a loyal customer out of me!

Went in for a consultation for a thigh mandala and it was such a pleasant and wonderful experience. Zoe and Arja were very friendly and attuned to my needs. They tried their best to make sure I liked the design before moving forward to anything else and put me at ease. It was going to be my first big piece. I ended up not moving forward but nevertheless I 110% recommend them to anyone looking for a tattoo in the style they offer. The studio is gorgeous too. Dig the open plan and chill atmosphere.

I stopped in here for Oct Friday the 13th flash. They had plenty of fun designs and I didn’t have to wait very long. I’ve had a number of larger tattoos done and got a pretty small one on my arm but clearly didn’t eat enough cause I passed out!!! I am basically writing this review to stress how kind and comfortable they made me feel. They gave me orange juice and cookies, a pillow and a fan. I wish I’d gotten the owner (or ate least I think he’s the owners) name because he was so attentive and so was my artist! I felt safe and comfortable finishing my tattoo which turned out SO cute.The space has a great vibe, it’s gorgeous and I will definitely be coming back (WELL FED) for more!

Getting a tattoo from a new artist at a new studio is always a little bit nerve wracking, but everyone at Alium was super friendly and welcoming. My artist, Arianno, was willing to work with me on my sketches and turn them into some really cool tattoos. He was open to feedback while at the same time giving his advice on what he thinks would look good. His advice was especially helpful for the placements. I will definitely be returning!

This was my first time getting a tattoo done in LA so I was nervous, but the studio was incredibly clean and everyone seemed so friendly, welcoming and professional.

I had my ears pierced by Amanda 3 months ago. First time ever getting them pierced. Amanda was very gentle and made sure I was ok throughout the process. I got a little jittery afterwards and she gave me some water and cookies. I just went back because I somehow got my piercing stuck in my ear lobe. She fixed my ear up. Shes so kind! I highly recommend her! Thank you!UPDATE:After messing up my one ear piercing and having to have it removed, I came back to get it re pierced. Amanda was quick and I didnt feel anything! While I was there I changed out my earrings and she only charged for the jewelry. I had some issues with my piercing recently. She took a look at it and cleaned it up for me and I came back a few times to make sure it was healing ok. Shes been a big help with my piercings.I highly recommend her, especially if you are new to piercings! Thank you!

I initially came to Alium tattoo/piercing shop to switch out a nose piercing I had and to get another piercing on the other side. As nervous as I was, Amanda made my experience easy and enjoyable. She did such a great job. My experience was so great that I decided to go back and get a tattoo. Now, as we all know tattoos don’t feel the best ! Lol but Camillo had such a gentle hand I barely felt anything! Not to mention my tattoo came out beautiful, love it! Lastly, I went back again for a second tattoo which was done by Efe, another great experience! His work is clean, exactly what I wanted. Everyone here really takes pride in their work and they make you feel extremely comfortable. 10/10 recommend! 😁

This is by far the best tattoo shop that I have been to the entire staff is beyond friendly. They are all very welcoming and want to make sure that you are comfortable they definitely make getting a tattoo here an amazing experience. While here getting my tattoo I saw multiple other customers get tattoos and not only were they all amazing but all the customers were happy as well. I had the pleasure of getting and amazing tattoo from Marco and I have to say that I am beyond happy with it. If anyone is interested in getting a tattoo then I highly recommend coming here and getting one from what I saw no matter what artist you choose you will be more than happy with the tattoo that you end up getting.

I had a wonderful experience at Allium tattoo!!! Max was the one who greeted me, and made me feel welcome right from the beginning. The place is absolutely stunning and it doesn’t feel like any other tattoo shop I’ve ever been too! It’s bright, clean, stylish, and super groovy. Great vibes overall and a safe space for women to get tattooed, which is super rare. I got a calligraphy tattoo perfectly executed by Joaquim, who is one of the owners. It’s my new favorite tattoo and it is very personal to me

I found Alium by way of a recommendation of an artist working there named Isabella. I was very impressed from the moment I walked into the shop. Such a great vibe with a very open and calm aesthetic, even the tattoo guns they use are super quiet. The staff were super professional, the environment was clean and calm, and most importantly I’m extremely happy with the work I had done. (Majora’s Mask from Legend of Zelda).

Really dont know where to start with my experience at Alium Tattoo Studio. From the visual aesthetics of the venue, the vast& clean open space, the music playing through the speakers, and to the actual experience of getting a piece of art done on your body. A gem inside Culver City if you will!The staff is friendly and welcoming, checking-in on their clients to make sure they are doing okay during their visit.I got an original piece done by Emily (@melted.w0rds) who specializes in distorted text & abstract blackwork. Super nice, super talented and I really appreciated how much she pays close attention to detail every step of the way. I can tell Emily is really passionate about her craft and definitely has a bright future in the industry.Dont forget to make a trip inside bathroom before leaving! Iykyk~

The shop is pretty and the people are friendly. But I waited for a long while to get greeted and the fact that my deposit doesn’t go towards the final payment is strange.

First time visiting Alium to get a fine line tattoo from Zoe. Overall an awesome experience from start to finish.Artist: Zoe did a fantastic job to transform from my concept to reality in a fine line tattoo on my forearm. She weaved key elements that I shared with her in our consultation and brought in her own style / design (of honeycomb like, square strong lines, shading) that I never would have expected, into a masterpiece. Her professional attitude and focus during the session helped me stay confident that the end work would look like the final design (which it did!)Inspiration: Wanted to share my experiences in Hawaii and my love for scuba diving. I commonly see sea turtles while diving and having palm trees was a must (I think is symbolic of the ‘escape’). Since getting the tattoo I’ve received countless compliments of the design and of how realistic it looks - everyone loves the turtle!Recommendation: Highly recommend Zoe to those looking to elevate their ideas into a tattoo, even more, to a piece of art for all to see.Studio: Enjoyed the cleaness and professionalism of the studio. They have a positive vibe and a playlist that took me back.
