I had a great experience getting my ear pierced by Sam. He was professional, attentive, and made sure I felt comfortable throughout the entire process. The studio was clean and well-organized, and Sam took the time to help me decide what I wanted and what would look best with my existing piercings. Everything was perfect, and I couldnt be happier. I highly recommend Sam and Hermosa Ink Collective to anyone considering getting a piercing or tattoo!

Cihan was so nice and had opinions on tattoos but of course suggested you make your own final decision! Some input def helps though. I brought my little sister for her first tattoo and he was great with her. Things were clean and sanitized and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

I’ve had incredible experiences with Bruno. From the moment I walked into the studio, I felt welcomed and at ease. The studio is impeccably clean and has a laid-back vibe that instantly puts you in the right mood. Bruno took the time to listen to my ideas, offered valuable input, and created designs that perfectly captured what I had in mind. The attention to detail in each tattoo is outstanding, and the process has always been smooth and professional. I couldn’t be happier with the results and can’t wait to return for my next pieces!Thank you :)

Cihan is an incredible artist and person. He took my middle daughters drawing and created the most detailed and intricate art on my arm. It was not only an amazing experience, but it was so great to get to know such a wonderful person as well. Everyone at Hermosa Ink was friendly, kind, and encouraging. My oldest daughter and I chose to get lion tattoos together for Fathers Day. Such a great experience.

Was able to get a walk-in with Cihan and he was incredible. I got a pretty small and detailed wrist tattoo that turned out perfect. He took so much time to resize things at my request and make sure it fit exactly where I wanted it. He was phenomenal and will definitely see him again.

I got three new tattoos and a retouch on my back tattoo completed by Bruno yesterday and I am extremely happy with the results. He always delivers and is very professional and skilled in his craft. I appreciate that he always takes his time in making sure his client is fully satisfied with the design before proceeding to the next step and making sure that they are comfortable throughout the appointment. The rest of the staff/ artists at Hermosa Ink Collective are always kind and personable as well that makes an experience that can be at times a little nerve-wracking a more enjoyable one. I appreciate Bruno for his talent, kindness and for another great experience to include the shop Hermosa Ink.Thank you, Ciera M.

💯 I would recommend and come back to have Sam do my future piercings. He pierced my daith for me today - and did an amazing job. I was never scared or apprehensive in the piercing chair. About Sam: He is an amazing human being that takes pride in his work, and truly loves what he does. His work speaks for itself - and it is killer. He has a killer personality, which is really a vibe of its own. Check him out - he is the real deal!

Sophie did an absolutely amazing job with my tattoo today. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for tattoos, she did the details beautifully and really perfected the tattoo. She got the design spot on to what i asked for and i’m blown away with how good of a job she did. I really recommend you see sophie if you want a well done tattoo.

Outstanding. I’m so glad I found this place. I came in for a covering of an old tattoo that was very large that I’ve had since 1992 and not only did he cover it, but they transformed it into something that I really liked. That’s what you call a true Artist.Cihan Did an awesome job and I will be back for more work most definitely to finish up my sleeve tattoo . I am so pleased by the kindness of the staff, the experience as a whole and Cihan Is a fabulous artist.I feel comfortable & confident knowing that he will bring magic to my pending designs for my future sessions and any design that any customer brings to him. Thanks again. Thomas 🙏🏾👍🏾

Just got my helix re-pierced and double lobe pierced by Sam today. He was absolutely amazing! I walked in and was instantly welcomed by the staff. The whole process went smoothly and Sam did an incredible job at exuding calmness throughout both piercings. He was great at asking me about placement and didnt pressure me at all about where he thought I should pierce my helix. I also extremely appreciated his attention to detail. He made sure that my double piercing on my left ear matched my right. He gave expert opinion and I love how the piercings turned out! I wish I went here instead of envy piercing where I originally got my helix done. Well worth it!

I highly recommend Bruno at Hemosa Ink!! He quickly & skillfully made a sketch of the font I wanted, added the little touches I wanted, and was able to do the whole tattoo and get me out in literally 30 minutes!!!! How crazy is that?! I love the tattoo - it was exactly what I wanted. When I would like another tattoo, I’ll definitely go to Hermosa Ink. Clean space and easy street parking, as well. If you are near the South Bay and considering getting a tat, Bruno is the one to go to!!

Lovely tattoo shop, clean and attractive with helpful friendly staff.

Sam did an excellent job piercing a previously pierced the ear. I’ve had several bad experiences in shopping mall, ear piercings, which resulted in a lot of scar tissue. Sam was very professional, and I didn’t even feel him pierce the ear. I have had no problems and everything has gone very well. The place is very clean and very professional. I definitely recommend this place and Sam. I also purchased a very nice earring with the piercing. Jennifer.

Sophie was really cool. She did a great job on my Kanji Japanese tattoo. She took her time and that made the experience really good. I would highly recommend Hermosa Ink Collective.😎Sophie did my other tattoo in the second photo.It says Warrior in Aribic. She is a great Artist and I highly recommend her. She takes her time and is really cool. I’m really glad that I found Sophie, and Hermosa Ink Collective. Great experience. 😀I got another neck tattoo from Sophie and it turned out great as always. I would highly recommend her and Hermosa Ink Collective. Thank you Sophie…I got a cover up tattoo of one that I had, that I wanted to change. I took my time to figure out what exactly what I wanted to get. I ended up with a blackout style that overlayed another tattoo. It went from a blackout and faded out to very small dots. I love it and am going to have Sophie do the same thing on one of my other tattoos because I like it so much. Thank you Sophie.JeffSophie was great as usual. I got a dotted pattern over an existing tattoo. It came out really good. I will keep on coming back….Jeff

I love Sophie, she is the best! My wife and daughter got a matching tattoo with her and they loved her. I have alot of old work from when I was younger that Im not happy with, and so I started working with Sophie to update and fill my empty space with some beautiful work, so the old stuff is less noticeable. So far we are 3 sessions in and shes so talented, she listens but also I give her total creative control and she does NOT disappoint! What an incredible artist, as well as a very real and complex individual. Im so glad I met Sophie and have the privilege of working with her.As for the shop itself, its a nice little place in a beautiful part of town, great vibe, clean, and everyone I talk to is so friendly.

I’ve been getting piercings for over 25 years, & this place has a friendly staff, great prices, & take walk-ins. ASHLEE did my piercings today & I am very satisfied with them!I got 2 more lobe piercings on the left ear & a conch piercing in both ears. She is knowledgeable & professional. Unfortunately, she did talk over me a lot & kept calling me baby. I am much older than her so I didn’t appreciate it. I did mention this to her & she stopped immediately which means she has great personal control. All in all, this is a fantastic place to go to. I highly recommend it!

This last year was tough losing two beloved pets and these perfect recreations of my pets paw prints was the perfect way to remember them. The shop is always clean and professional. By far my favorite tattoo shop 😊

My boyfriend and I were driving in from bay area and were lucky enough to get an appt the very next day. From the moment I called everyone I had talked to was very accommodating and really nice. And when it comes to the tattoo artist Bruno he was amazing.. We will definitely make the drive down again just to get tatted here. Well worth the drive...

Had an excellent experience getting my first tattoo ever at Hermosa Ink. Bruno took plenty of time to help me design my tattoo based on the concept I had and ensure I was happy with it. Hes an extraordinarily talented artist and my tattoo was absolutely perfect--I couldnt be happier with it

I needed to change jewelry for my helix piercing. I came in at my appointment time and was seen by Ashlee within minutes. My piercing was still pretty new and a little irritated, Ashlee was so amazing, told me what she was doing every step of the way and provided tips for better healing. Would certainly recommend this business to anyone looking to get a piercing.

Hi I’m Laura posting from my husband’s account because apparently I don’t have one lol 😂! Anyway, I walked in yesterday to get some ear piercings, and Ashlee did an amazing job!! I got three on one side and one on the other. She took the time to hear exactly what I wanted, made sure I was comfortable, and then was precise and quick in performing the piercings, so there was barely any pain! I highly recommend Hermosa Ink!! The whole staff was great, including taking these excellent photos for me!! Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️

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 tattoo, allowing me to have a well educated mind when ultimately making the calls on the piece. 10/10, would recommend, definitely coming back to Hermosa Ink Collective the next time I want a tattoo!

I walked in with something very specific in mind and Cihan did an incredible job! With no notice or prep he created something beautiful. He let me know exactly where we might need to simplify the image for it to look good as it aged and got it to look just the way I hoped. Highly recommend getting tattoos with Cihan!

I walked in and got 3 ear piercings done with Ashlee. I was indecisive and kept changing my mind about where I wanted the piercing, but Ashlee was patient and helped me find the perfect spots. The process was quick and painless. I have very sensitive ears, and in the past, it has taken a very long time for my piercings to heal. I am shocked by how quickly my ears have healed and with no issues at all. I bought the cleaning solution she recommended and my ears havent bled at all. I highly recommend getting your piercings done here!

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.

My wife and I got a recommendation for Bruno and met with him to get our first tattoos. Bruno was great to work with and has an exceptional talent for details with his single needle technique.

This place is clean, with lots of natural light. It’s easy to access as it’s located on the corner. It has nice seating area just inside the front door, we went as a group and all were offered a bottle of water as paperwork was being finalized. Bruno was wonderful, he does a great job with fine line detail, the tattoos he was doing was a simple design of and outline of an airplane, in different sizes that ranged from the size of a dime, size of a quarter and the last was just larger then a quarter but smaller then an old fifty cent piece. There was no fill in, no color or shading necessary. He was quickly finished and we were all on our happy way. The appointments were set via text message so don’t be alarmed, you call the shop and finalize the appointment and give them payment information for your time slot. That part was also very easy. If you’re in the area and want a tattoo, I recommend you go see Bruno. Sorry no pictures, as these tattoos as they are personal to our group honoring our friend we lost in March.

Edit: came back for a second piece and an add on from Bruno … they turned out better than I even imagined they would! Bruno is one of the most gentle tattoo artists … definitely great for anyone going for their first time. The entire staff there was very friendly and easy to talk to. I was very comfortable…and I’m definitely coming back for more!Bruno is THE BEST. Hands down my favorite tattoo and best experience… I would recommend him to anyone looking to get a beautifully detailed, thin lined piece. Absolutely wonderful and the staff at Hermosa Ink was very friendly, communicative, and great to work with! I’ll be back!

Cindy and Sophie took care of me and they are really nice! The tattoo shop is really welcoming and is in a fun part of Hermosa Beach. They were receptive to my preferences and made sure I got exactly what I wanted.The only thing was that Sophie didn’t warn me before she started tattooing, it wasn’t an issue for me bc everything was set up and I’ve been tatted before. It might be disconcerting for people that are anxious, but hearing the tattoo gun start up is a bit of a warning itself. So, that would be my only suggestion, but she may have been more lax with me bc I have tattoos and I was relaxed too.Overall, I had a great experience and I wouldn’t change anything! Thank you so much Sophie and Cindy!!

Thank you Ashlee for the great experience! Piercing is healing well! Im very happy with the customer service you provided.Update:Piercing fell out in my sleep after having been in perfect condition for 2 weeks.

Its healing great! ✨️

I highly recommend Dave. I cant say enough great things about him. This was my first tattoo experience, and I went in feeling really nervous. He took the time to listen to exactly what I wanted and took the time to get it just right before starting. He listens and wants you to leave feeling like you got exactly what you wanted (and more). Hes an exceptional artist too so cant go wrong with him no matter what kind of design/style you want.

Bruno is a great tattoo artist and is friendly! Always make sure placement is where I want it, shows me the initial design and asks me questions to get a better understanding of what I’m looking to get, explains aftercare. My 3 tattoos are all done by Bruno (as well a finger tattoo a pervious artist messed up, he offered to touch up for free!) and they all healed perfectly following his aftercare instructions. My tattoos always come out looking 10x better than the reference photos I give, and I will definitely be a long time client :) thank u Bruno!

Review №196

Worse tattoo work ever ! I sent all the information in advance and all SOF/she had to do was add color to a small existing tattoo. We showed a pic of what we wanted- she ignored the pic and our direction and this came out NOTHING like we asked or showed her. Overpriced for 5 min of coloring and did not follow any of our requests or picture - which was quite simple coloring. Our tattoos were the same and we asked for the exact same coloring - our coloring wasn’t even done similar?! Do Not go here- now we have to go to another tattoo artist to see if this can be fixed!! Horrible!! I wouldn’t even give 1 star ! She didn’t listen to us just rushed through this and did her own thing!
