Forever Dead Tattoo & Piercing

“I got tattooed by Isaac & from the moment I walked in I felt very unwelcomed. It felt like everyone was in a bad mood or didn’t want to be there. I didn’t really get greeted, my tattoo felt rushed & after I saw how it healed it lacked of detail. Again, rushed. It felt like artist just wanted to finish quickly. This is not the tattoo I expected & I followed the aftercare however this was not the tattoo I expected. The reviews on here mention how dusty/dirty the shop is & in fact I saw a whole bunch of dust/dirt on the corners of the owner’s room & it not appealing to see that especially when you know that they work with open wounds. Please don’t get work done here. It’s lonely for a reason, I pass by all the time & the parking lot is always empty. “

0 stars for @tattoosbyjam The tattoo I got by Jorge looks like a jail tattoo. I waited for it to heal after I heard that it goes through an ugly healing stage. I later found out he never started his apprenticeship & that the owner (Isaac) just hired him not caring if he finished his apprenticeship or not & it clearly shows. Now I’m stuck with this shitty PERMANENT TATTOO. There is also never toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap & the shop is always extremely dusty which isn’t sanitary when you’re dealing with open wounds. Their ratings definitely did not come from tattoo work so please don’t get fooled & keep researching. This work says it all. Now I need laser to lighten it up so that I can re-do all the detail which of course costs more.

I would strongly advise against getting a tattoo at Forever Dead Tattoo. This place has serious management issues that reflect poorly on the entire business. Good, talented artists being fired for no good reason, while others are allowed to steal from their colleagues with no consequences. This lack of professionalism and respect creates a toxic environment that ultimately impacts the quality of service. Avoid at all costs.

I have six tattoos done by Robert. He did my first! Virgin no more. Im 75, and its never too late to get creative. Go for it.

I figured it was the perfect time to post these. I had this photo saved because I made a joke about it to a friend. Now that i hear there’s injustice to employees I found it perfect to mention that this place never has tp, hand soap & their restroom reeks. Do yourself a favor & keep researching. Btw that’s a roach left on top of the table.

Got an eyebrow piercing done by Juanita a couple months ago and she was the best!!!!! She was very helpful with any questions and made me feel super comfortable! I get intimidated by tattoo shops and this one was no different but she made feel so welcomed.

The owner did a terrible dishonor to the piercer Juanita. Ive been pierced exclusively by Juanita and she is the best there is. She is professional and super knowledgable. Each visit I have always felt comfortable with her.The owner decided to protect a stealing coworker and fire Juanita instead of the person that was stealing from her. It seems like the owner just likes having a young impressionable girl to keep around. What a creep. Will never come back here. Only came here for Juanita.

This shop has been amazing with their customer service and my partner and I have been receiving services from them since 2018. The shop always had a unique ambiance where you can come and feel relaxed regardless of the genre of music that was playing. However, ever since there was a new employee hired, the shop has not been the same since. The environment becomes really hostile and there isnt respect being shown between the workers and it can feel uncomfortable. I really hope there is a change in the shop.

I only go here strictly for piercings because the piercer, Juanita, is the best , cleanest & most knowledgeable in LA county by far. I’ve been going to Juanita for about 3 years now and I loved the environment and energy. Recently the shop has changed completely... Definitely not the same vibe as I used to get & there’s a strong smell of marijuana that lingers, I have a lot of anxiety and coming for piercings is something I’d want to be in a comfortable , calm environment. I give the shop a 2/5 because it just isn’t the same anymore. It’s starting to become unprofessional. And I really only come back for Juanita.

Aint nothing like it used to be when Juanita was the true boss con huevos oppose to that chic Eyesack!!

Do Not Bother Stepping Foot in this tattoo shop. There is an apprentice that goes by Weezy who does not disclose she is an apprentice. She also smokes weed in the lobby while customers are waiting to get pierced. She has no class and very unprofessional. The shop itself is very dusty and the bathroom reeks of urine.

Highly recommend Juanita in forever dead tattoo and piercing for youre first or youre next piercing,Knowledgeable,nice, and very helpful when it comes to questions and answers. Shes great! Had patience with me, helped me feel comfortable, and did my piercings with the best result! (:

Its truly sad to see a very long time friend and peircer of mine be severely mistreated and disrespected in a space that she has worked at for MANY years. When there is clear evidence of her space being violated. To the owner; fix it and fix it quick. You used to be so on top of things why is your shop falling apart????? Why are you allowing and tolerating dishonest behavior espcially from novices? Its UNACCEPTABLE and Im super disappointed. You cannot deny the video evidence. Its super embarrassing to have people like that represent Forever Dead Tattoo and Piercing. As a buisness owner myself I hope to see justice for Juanita as she has been an up and outstanding pircer at your establishment for years.

Ive been here more than once now for cartilage piercings with Juanita. Service is great every time and she always makes sure that youre comfortable and understand the aftercare for your new piercings. Would definitely recommend!Edited to add: Ive been going to Juanita for piercings for years, and shes done an excellent and professional job each time. 8 piercings down and I know Ill go back to her for more.Unfortunately, the shop itself leaves a lot to be asked, especially now that Juanita has spoken out about the mistreatment and hostility of the environment. Ill absolutely continue to seek out Juanita for piercings, I wont be returning to Forever Dead as long as its so toxic.Juanita gets 5 stars every time. Forever Dead gets 1.

Does anyone know where Juanita work now? What to get my septum done

I called about getting some artwork done on finishing my sleeve,the gentleman said the guy would call me shortly, no he started texting me and Im not into texting I like phone conversations when Im trying to spend my money. So he asked when I wanted to get the work done. I started whenever youre available, evidently. I want it done soon. So he started, hell let me know 🤨 No he doesnt have to let me know cause I have an appointment tomorrow with a different shop. I guess he doesnt need no money . Terrible commutation skills .

The tattoo work looks bad here. Not something I would pay $$$ for. Their quality looks like something youd get in a jail: messy line work and shading.Their instagram page has nothing that stands out. If you want your moneys worth, go somewhere else.

So I made an appointment for my 1 year old Daughter to get her ears pierced and the Lady said 3:30pm for consultation, wanted me to buy her earrings and pay the $45 peircing fee and come back to do the actual piercing ! Left and took my money back and another Tattoo shop pierced my daughters ears no hassle and i got Snake eyes. The lady doesnt want to do her job very upset with this Shop!

I find this very unprofessional & from what I saw, Analisse does not deserve to permanently mark peoples skin.

I came here to get my nose and belly button pierced for my 18th birthday. Juanita was so kind and funny and made the entire process so easy and stress free. she was very professional and walked me through the entire process. she was wonderful!! highly recommend.

Got my tattoo done by Isaac. We spoke on Instagram months before coming together with ideas. He drew something up and I instantly loved the tat. Got a half sleeve done in a little under 4 hours one session. Very reasonable pricing.

Juanita hooked me up! She’s the best if you’re looking for somewhere to get a piercing this is the spot! I will definitely be back for all my future piercings! A week after my industrial piercing and it’s healing amazingly ❤️I’m so in love!

My daughter and I love our new piercing. She did a great job of making my daughter feel comfortable with needles.Thank you so much for everything.Owner did an awesome repair work on my 15 year old tattoo, It came out GREAT! FoReVeR DeAd 🖒🖒

Had my nose pierced by Juanita. She is professionsal, patient, knowledgeable, and very concerned about cleanliness when working. I highly recommend her, she is the best! P.S. The shop prices are very reasonable also.

Place smell like weed. Heard one of the tattoo artist saying they were going to drop off a duffel bag of meth later on that day.

Went here to get my septum done and they were very nice. clean shop. made sure to tell me everything I needed to know and she made sure my piercing was straight. Thank you so much I love it!

Jorge did a wonderful job, exactly what I wanted. He was able to take me in the last minute. Definitely will be back!

I went here for my first tattoo and the experience was a 10/10. It didn’t hurt at all and it came out amazing! Thanks Isaac!

Went in for a piercing with Juanita, she made me feel comfortable and stress free! She was very informative and totally made my experience stress free, recommend this place to anyone!

Isaac hooked me up my tatto came out just as the picture I gave him hes reasonably priced well organized and professional work I will continue returning to this place for more tattoos highly recommend
