Just got a new tattoo at Costello Tattoo, and I couldnt be happier with the entire experience! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was so cool and welcoming, clean, and professional. Such a good and creative vibe! Everyone were so friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time to listen to my ideas, ensuring they understood exactly what I wanted.Adi and shay were absolutely amazing. Not only are they incredibly talented, but they also made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. The level of detail and precision in their work is astounding, and the final result exceeded all my expectations.The shop maintained the all standards of hygiene, and I felt safe knowing that everything was sanitized and that the artists followed strict safety protocols. The pricing was also fair and transparent, with no hidden costs.I highly recommend Costello Tattoo to anyone looking for high-quality tattoos and a fantastic overall experience. I will definitely be coming back for more ink in the future!
I just got a tattoo at Costello Tattoo, and Adi was my artist. She was incredibly helpful throughout the design process, making sure it was exactly what I wanted. The experience was quick, seamless, and surprisingly painless. I’m already planning to return to her for future work! The shop’s ambiance was fantastic, and the entire team was welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend Costello Tattoo for anyone looking for quality work in a great environment!
My siblings and I walked in to inquire about tattoos and left with a tattoo and piercings. The vibes in the shop were so welcoming and all of the artists were super nice and helped us feel comfortable. Shoutout to Vanessa and Constantine for the piercing and tattoo. Will definitely recommend and come back again!
I had my tattoo with Shay. I could not be happier with the result and the process. From the beginning with the briefing conversation about the design of the tattoo, thru the session where hardly no pain at all, and the instructions at the end to take care of it. The place is very nice too, very clean and staff is very polite. I would definetely recommend this place and Shay.
Vanessa the piercer is So Wonderful. My granddaughters helix piercing had to be put back in and she was so kind and understanding. My granddaughter is very shy and she just loved how gentle and gracious Vanessa was with her. Mad love to this wonderful shop and the beautiful people.
Vanessa is truly the sweetest! She was so warm and welcoming during my experience. Highly recommend seeing her to get any piercing!
I recently got my industrial piercing by Vanessa. She did a great job and was very caring. Definitely would recommend
Nadine is a STAR!! I love her so much. She was super patient with me and made sure my design was completely perfect before tatting it. I felt like I was being annoying and picky but she reassured me!! I got some lettering and fine lines from her and she is perfect— very steady hand and super crisp detail. Will 100% be coming back
Two days ago, I got my ears pierced in different place. And they did a terrible job. My ear was bleeding all the time. I went to this place, and Vanessa Silver helped, took care of my problem (there was a lot of blood), and gave me advices how to take care of it later. If you have any problems with piercing and tattoos, Vanessa defeneltly is the one who you can trust!
This is my new favorite shop in LA. not only are the artists incredibly talented, it was a breath of fresh air to feel kind, friendly, and welcoming energy from everyone I encountered at Costello. Emma was so gracious in taking me without an appointment today and gave me my new favorite tattoo. (also loved having their puppy around to play with) thank you for the hospitality and amazing work. I will be back soon!
I walked in to get my 1 year old dermals removed and Vanessa helped me right away! She made the process as painless as possible and walked me through everything. 10/10
Got my first tattoos done by Isabela Valotti who is an amazing artist and kind person. At first, I was nervous because i didn’t know if it was gonna be extremely painful but glad it wasn’t. Took at least 3 hours to get it done and was happy and comfortable during the whole process. I really recommend getting your tattoos here. It is worth the price.
Came in as a walk-in for a skull tattoo. Nadine helped me and was great every step of the way! We designed an amazing microrealism skull tattoo to commemorate my elopement last year. She did an amazing job with the tattoo and Im so happy with it! Will definitely be coming back to her again for something new!
Clean shop, Constantine did my tat and it looks amazing. Worth the money, very fine detail in my design , it turned out great.
I love this shop! Everyone I met the day I had an appointment for a tattoo was awesome! Shay was my artist. He took his time with the design until it was right. I am so happy with my beautiful tattoo!My sister came in for her first tattoo after my experience and Shay designed and tattooed another amazing piece!I already have a design in mind for my next piece and will definitely make an appointment with Shay again!
Imagine walking into an environment full of creative passionate artists who have a family feel mindset and love to keep everyone laughing or smiling.My first experience with Andrew was amazing. He brought my hebrew tattoo and wrist tattoo to life. I also had him touch up a 14 year old tattoo and loved how he worked and made me feel very comfortable on each experience. I would recommend him to anyone!In these three experiences with Andrew, I shared an idea of doing a full sleeve on my right arm and he recommended another great artist by the name of Ozzy who wowed me with two amazing ideas I had. I call him the tattoo sniper because he got a perfect bullseye on each session and I am excited for him to finish the rest of my arm. He is a perfectionist for sure!If you want to stand out from all of the rest, getting inked by these two is a MUST and after these 5 experiences at the shop, I would be honored to collab with any of Costellos artist. They are simply that GREAT!And you can take this review to the bank!
CostelloThe absolute best first tattoo experience I could have asked for. Not only did Shay aim to achieve my vision, he perfected it with incredible detail and artistic precision. I came to my appointment with several ideas that I hoped could be integrated into a unified piece. Shay took my ideas, adjusting every component until together, we were excited with final design. Shay is friendly, focused, professional and possesses natural artistic talent. Though I spent an entire day at Costello, I was surprised by how quickly time passed. The shop is comfortable, unpretentious, warm and friendly. The staff shows interest and investment in each service provided. Throughout the day, artists and clients surveyed my progress with enthusiasm, creating a social and engaging experience. I highly recommend Shay for his remarkable work and Costello Tattoo for piercing and tattoo services.
Love this place. environment is incredible. Ever comfortable and chill. Will be goin back here for all my piercings and tats. Shout out to Shay love that guy! If you haven’t gone to check this place out you’re missing out!!
I got a tattoo with Nohelia and it was the best experience Ive ever had with a tattoo. She was so professional and helpful and made sure I got exactly what I wanted. Plus she is one of the most talented artists Ive ever seen - her stuff is so clean and gorgeous. I get a ton of compliments on my tattoo.
The picture speaks for itself 😍 thank you Costello and his Team for the great work on my backPSD: still waiting for the flowers to heal and will do some more touch ups ❤️ but yet look how amazing it looks already 🤩🤩🤩
I recently got into tattoos when I was out of town and I was looking for a local place to get more. This shop was the perfect spot. I worked with the ever so talented Nadine. She made me feel right at home, took her time designing my tattoos, and was fun to talk to the entire time! Plus, she works so quickly and smoothly. I will be coming back.
Came in this last Valentine’s Day to get a special tat for me and my sweetheart. The staff was all super warm and welcoming especially Nadine who was the artist who tattooed me and my girlfriend. She’s just starting out but it’s one of the cleanest tattoos I’ve gotten this far, and I’ve got a lot ! Will definitely be back, especially since you get a complimentary back massage with every tattoo purchase.
My fiancée and I have both gotten tattoos by Emma and Costello and we probably won’t go anywhere else!!! They are SOO talented, sweet and extremely professional. They also have an adorable dog running around that just makes this spot so fun. If you are looking for the perfect tattoo artist in the LA area, I would strongly recommended checking them out!! 5 stars for sure!!!
I stopped by here last Friday to get a tattoo done. Nadine was my artist and I am very satisfied with my experience and results. She took her time to go over the details with me before starting. She has a good, gentle hand and an aesthetically pleasing artistic eye. I was impressed with the tattoo shop over all. It’s clean and all the artists are professional and serious about their craft. I will 100% be coming back here for more tattoos. I highly recommend them.
Amazing artist!!! With great understanding of what I wanted, Adi was able to creat the perfect tattoo the first time, which made me come for the second time and even bring my daughter for her first tattoo!! Accurate and gentle.
My husband got a mandala tattoo from Costello himself today and we couldnt be happier with the outcome. Its beautiful. We love Costellos attention to detail and his professionalism. His shop has such a great vibe, well be coming back to finish off his sleeve.
I got my first tattoos by Nadine who was incredible! Id gone back and forth for weeks on a few smaller tattoos id wanted and she was incredibly patient and helpful. Her suggestions were great and her line work is beautiful! She really takes her time and made a nerve-racking experience much more calm.The shop is super clean and they have a great atmosphere. Ill definitely be back for more!
Ozzy is one of the best tattoo artists that I metSuper quality and work patiently with the customerHighly recommend
My star was Shai , I came because friend recommendation and I saw his portfolio.He help me to redo old tatto that was in a bad shape and I never finished.Session was around 4 h and he was super gentle professional! Overall I’m super happy from the results and planning to visit next month for second one .Highly recommend ! 5* for this dude and the team .
I just got my first ever tattoo at 28 years old! I was so so nervous since I hate needles. Well...I ended up getting 3 thanks to Agné haha! She did an AMAZING job! Not only did she make sure each tattoo was perfected, she also made me feel so calm about it. The environment here feels like family, its calm, and everyone makes effort to get to know you. I love all 3 of my tattoos so much! Ask for Agné!!!! Shes the best!
Amazing tattoo shop! Ive gotten a few over the years and this was by far the best experience Ive had. My wife and I both worked with Nadine and she was incredible. She did a great job in the ideation phase and her work is excellent.The shop is very, very clean and all the artists I saw working were doing great work. My next tattoos will be with Nadine, highly recommended!
I have to share my experience I got my first tattoo done by Adi, she was so patient , creative , and calmed me down from how stressed I was !Not only did she give me the best service she created the nicest art piece and I’m so honored she was the artist that did it for me she is the best !!!
Everything was awesome and very clean: the place, equipments and overall service. I was nervous because I was getting my first tattoo, but they made me feel comfortable and sure throughout the whole process, from making the appointment to the moment of getting inked. Definitely coming back for more and recommending it!
I came here after hearing about how great the artists are. They got back to me quickly and were super accommodating. Very friendly and welcoming environment. Loved the clean atmosphere. And Nadine absolutely crushed my tattoo. My design has tiny/intricate text and she made it perfect. Loved the collaborative process and the final result. Coming back here again for sure.
I’ve been really indecisive searching online for the perfect fine line flower bouquet and a tattoo place to get it done at. I searched nearby in my city but couldn’t find any artist that specializes in fine line tattoos. Expanded my search a little further and found this shop and found Nadine who specializes in fine line.I can say I’m definitely coming back whenever I decide to get my next tattoo. I gave her a few reference photos of flower bouquets I liked and told her that I wanted a mesh of all the references. When I saw the drawing she pieced together, I was amazed since it was way better and more than I expected it to be. Not only was her artwork was amazing, she was super friendly and answered any questions I had. 100% recommend her for any fine line tattoos! She’s able to create an amazing piece out of a mixture of reference photos.Setting up an appointment is fairly easy (I did it through Instagram) and you can find all their artists profiles on there to view their artwork. They responded pretty quick and were super friendly. 100/10 customer service. The atmosphere of the shop is awesome and they had some paintings up for display able to be purchased. Literally have nothing bad to say about this place.
LOVE. THIS. PLACE.My boyfriend got his first tattoo here and it was one of the best tattoo experiences I’ve ever had. I have 7 tattoos, and have been to countless tattoo shops in LA trying to find that one amazing spot . Put it this way, I’m 100% coming back here for my next ones. Gman was the artist who did my boyfriends and he was so articulate and careful in drawing up the tattoo. My bf was obviously nervous about his first one but gman was super chill the whole time and had no problem with the minor tweaks/add-ons during the session. Highly highly recommend this place. super nice, warm welcoming, friendly people here. ✨✨
Had my first and second tattoo done there. The staff is both talented and delightful. The place is pretty cool as well. I’ll always recommend it and I’m sure I’ll be going back any time now for more tattoos!
First timer. Did a walk-in and immediately got scheduled in for a tatt and a piercing. The anchor was very clean and process was smooth. Andrew, Johnny and the rest of the crew were very nice and accommodating. Will definitely recommend the place
I got my first ever tattoo with Nadine and it was 10/10. First, she established an open communication with me before I even arrived to ensure I was getting exactly what I wanted. When I arrived it was seamless. Everything was set up and good to go. Additionally, Nadine is incredible. She kept me calm, talked to me throughout the session, and kept on asking if everything was okay and if I needed anything. Lastly, Nadine has mad skills. I got exactly what I wanted! The tattoo came out perfect, it didn’t hurt at all and she is a true artist!
Got a tattoo from Nadine. She was amazing! Friendly & professional 😀 Her line work and shading is on point! She took her time and has a light hand.She was kind enough to help fix a tattoo for me and she did a wonderful job. Tattoo looks better than it did before. Lines are nice & crisp.I couldnt have left happier.
I have many tattoos, and i have been looking for a good tattoo artist for a long time , Shay is beyond amazing, his personality is great and i just got the best tattoo i have !!Very accurate and even better than what is was expecting.I already think about my next one !
I came to this studio for a tattoo with yakir and it was a very pleasant experience! It had been a while since I got a tattoo and I was nervous but he was very considerate of my design preference and had a rather light hand. That being said, my tattoo came out magnificent!! It was better than I could have ever imagined, and the entire time he worked on my arm he and the entire staff at Costello engaged in a very fun and hospitable way. Making the entire day quite enjoyable. I highly recommend giving him and the shop a shot!! You will not be let down. I will definitely go back very soon.
Amazing staff!! Work is phenomenal. Will fly back to get tattooed again. Highly recommend!
The most professional there is, crazy talent! I was especially looking forward to getting tattooed by Ran!! It was worth the wait. Cant wait for the next time.
I got a tattoo with Andrew this week and it was a great experience. I chose one of his flash designs that was gorgeous. It was super easy to book with him and he was really responsive in our messaging. The shop was clean and comfortable. Andrew was easy to work with and incredibly talented. I love my new tattoo and would definitely go back to see Andrew for another!
Ran embodies more than just the role of studio owner; hes the creative force behind it all. As a talented tattoo artist, he pours his heart into every design. But its about more than just the ink for Ran – hes also a pro at running the show, effortlessly connecting with customers and exuding a natural grace in everything he does.Thanks Ran :))
I just finished getting my long awaited tattoo at this shop with lovely Nadine. I read all the great reviews here with her name being mentioned a lot so I decided to go for it. Lucky enough she was there to consult me and after redesigning what I showed her, to make it a perfection, we made it happen and I couldn’t be happier. It is exactly what I wanted and the way I wanted it. She’s such a detail oriented artist with light and confident hands. Also, the place is very clean and all the staff are super nice and respectful. I’ll recommend her and this shop 200%. Go for it. 👍🏻
Very professional and clean. I got my first tattoo here and Im very happy I got it here. Nadine was super helpful and patient made sure all the stencils were straight and centered. The final result was awesome! The lines were straight and neat.
Costello is the best !I keep coming back again & again…I was lucky to get 4 tattoos by Costello so far & I know I’ll be back for more.Amazing artist, great studio / vibe and SUPER clean.Can’t recommend enough ….!
After getting a warm recommendation from a friend who just got a beautiful tattoo, I reached out them by instagram. They replied quickly, asked me what type of tattoo I want and scheduled me with the appropriate artist. The artist set me patiently to finalize the design. She was very calm and attentive to my requests. The the tattooing itself was almost without any pain. She was 100% focused in her work. And needles to say it came out gorgeous. Thank you guys! Amazing service, amazing artist.
I recently got a tattoo from Andrew and I could not be happier with the result! He pays incredible attention to detail and is very patient. I went into our consultation not entirely knowing what I wanted and we ended up picking a really nice minimalist tattoo for my face. I loved my experience and cant wait to go back!
Yakir is an amazing artist! One thing I truly appreciated was how he listened to my ideas about the design and placement. Something that was an issue in my past experiences with other artist. Anytime I had a question he would respond with great detail and never made me feel like I was bothering him. Very friendly and made the overall experience an amazing one to remember. The tattoo itself came out so gorgeous and is healing beautifully. Plus, hes a One Piece fan. That should speak for itself😁 Im definitely going to be getting more tattoos by him in the future.
Nadine actually gave me my new favorite tattoo today. She was so kind, funny, and skilled with her work. She was incredibly honest and helped me design and create the piece I wanted. She kept great company and was extremely fun to hang out with while she tattooed my arm. I couldn’t recommend a better artist for your pieces!!
1 year, healed update: 4 stars to 2.I watered down and left out red flags in my original review because the artist was nice and the business responds really weirdly to lower ratings. Im rating the service and end result here, not the person.The tats not what I asked for even though I had clear references, and the artist seemed like he was uncomfortable with it up until the machine was running. He hadnt looked at my references, didnt communicate that he was outside his comfort zone until he was already tattooing, and leaned too hard into customer service mode to make me feel comfortable, likely because he felt bad about his no show. Id made it extremely clear during booking that I would happily go with another artist in the studio if it wasnt a comfortable style for him.The tattoo healed alright. I asked for blackwork no shading and he did fine line with shading, so as comes with small details and shading, its a little muddy. People arent really sure what theyre looking at. It would be nice if it doesnt get less legible over time.No one who has seen my reference images can understand how far off the artist decided to go.---Original review:I got tatted with Ozzy. Its a nice environment in a good location, friendly artists. The piece I got done is really nice quality and also not quite what I asked for. I was really clear about what I was looking to get and feel like the ball got dropped along the way because initial communication wasnt directly with the artist. Regardless, Ill always be proud to show off this piece and plug the artist due to the quality alone.Main pros:- The artists at this shop all have really high quality work.- My artist took time to research the culture of the style I asked for to create a design.- He was apologetic and offered alternatives when there was a scheduling mishap.- Very clear price quotes.- I hands down had the most pleasant experience sitting for this tattoo. Ozzy has great energy and makes good conversation. I felt comfortable the entire time.- He was super willing to continue working with me to flesh out future tattoo ideas, which I truly appreciated.- Second skins used here; my tat healed very nicely, quickly, and easily.- Location- They dont have front desk staff, but the studio is easy to contact by phone in case anything comes up.Main cons:- I wasnt given a health and safety form/waiver nor was my ID checked.- Scheduling wasnt smooth. And the artist didnt seem to get details about the tattoo from the studio or scheduler before the appointment, which I believe would have prevented the rest of the cons.- What he drafted up was different on a few levels, changing a bold blackwork tribal piece to thin linework. Since it took a couple hours and the design was cool, I just asked for minor tweaks.- The piece was moderately shaded after he confirmed he understood I wanted black only, no shading.
I’ve got multiple tattoos from Nadine, and had the best experience ever. She was friendly, kind, and patient as I changed placements of the tattoo multiple times. She made sure I was comfortable, the station was clean, and asked if I needed anything before we started the tattoo. All the staff in the store was so nice too! They would come over and look at the tattoos I was getting and always seemed interested or excited in the designs. I highly recommend going here, and highly recommend Nadine for your next tattoo!
I went for my first tattoo with Nadine. She gave her opinions and input and swayed my decision in the best ways. I went back about a week later for my second one. I wanted something clean and simple and couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Get a lot of compliments, even those with lots of tattoos say how good/clean they are. Highly recommend Nadine!!! And she’s super sweet which helps for first timers
I had an amazing experience at this tattoo shop! Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. I got a tattoo with Nadine who was extremely helpful, talented, and kind. She took the time to help me design the exact tattoo I wanted and helped me find the perfect placement for it. I highly recommend getting a tattoo with her!
Did an amazing job love how my tattoos turned out
This was my first time coming to this tattoo shop and it was such an amazing experience. I got my tattoo done by Beau and he made the experience so wonderful. I went in not knowing if I wanted to go through with it, and when my decision was made I was super nervous. He knows how to talk to you to get your mind off of it. Overall such a great experience, I definitely recommend getting a tattoo done by Beau. His artwork is amazing!!
I had a great experience! We went for Friday the 13. It was really fun, they had food and drinks and it was a great vibe. Yoni my piercer was GREAT, super knowledgeable and chill vibe, a consummate professional. Costello the owner was so nice and accommodating. Everyone else who worked there seemed really great and friendly too. My piercings look awesome, I will definitely be back and refer all my friends!
Id been thinking about getting a tattoo for quite some time and finally decided to get my first one this week. Costellos, particularly the artist known as G-Man, are wonderful! The place is very clean; all the equipment is sterile and G-Man had no problem with me watching as he set up his station. Everyone is very friendly. A privacy screen can be opened if requested, but otherwise all the work and the clients are clearly visible to anyone who cares to observe. G-Man translated my idea for a tattoo into a stencil and then to my skin beautifully. He really made my first experience getting a tattoo very pleasant. instructions for aftercare were clear; I felt that Costello cares about the safety and comfort of its clients.
I came in for a walk in and the entire staff was super accommodating. My artist, Shay, was super detail oriented and made sure I was involved in every step of the process. Overall, this is the most welcome and comfortable I’ve ever felt at a tattoo shop and I left with my absolute favorite tattoo, I will definitely be coming back and working with shay in the future.
Amazing service , did 6 tattoos already here and probably do a lot more.The owners is super nice , place is clean, best vibe ever.
One of the best tattoo shops I’ve been too! Everyone is so nice & very welcoming. Shoutout to Andrew for doing 2 of my recent tattoos! He’s very accommodating, patient & really good at what he does! Definitely coming back for more!
I’ve already got three tattoos there with the amazing artist Isa Valotti! She is super talented! Also she accepts your ideas and incorporates them into the project!The place is great and clean, also people there are very friendly!!
I’ve gone here 3 times now for 3 separate tattoos and have had an amazing experience each time - the staff/artists are the sweetest people and make the experience super fun. They listen to exactly what you want and they take their time perfecting their work on you. I had one of their artists, Shay, do a piece for me recently, and he is definitely my go to guy now! Such a caring and genuine guy and was such a pleasure to work with him, he is amazing at what he does :) highly recommend coming here for your tattoos if you want amazing, detailed work!
My husband and I were there yesterday for tattoos after our daughters recommendation. That was the BEST experience. Since it was my first tattoo I was very nervous and the owner Costello , was super nice and patient, helping us to choose exactly what we were looking for and did an amazing job! super professional clean work . the studio is spotless with nice chill vibe that makes the experience really calm and fun. everyone there are so nice and prices are great too! I highly recommend this studio!.
I love my tattoo. Isabella is a skilled file needle tattoo artist. I wanted something special to mark moving forward from a challenging health problem. Not only am I thrilled with my tattoo, but Isabella was delightful, she made the experience all the more meaningful for me. I will forever be grateful.
SN was wonderful. His line work is superb, he is super chill and the other artist (like Ozzy) in the studio are very cool with welcoming and good energy. I walked in, they made it work and I love my tattoos. 🖤✨
The people at Costello Tattoo were nothing short of amazing! Everyone was super friendly and helpful. The shop is super clean and organized, with a nice atmosphere the relax while getting your tattoo. Yakir, a special guest, helped me with my tattoo and it came out perfect! He was able to meet my needs and go above and beyond expectations. I recommend going to this shop for any tattoos and piercing needs! Wasn’t definitely work the drive to come here for me!
Great shop, always good atmosphere and cool staff . Got 2 tattos lately with Adi and she is the best i couldn’t be happier :)
Got my first tattoo with Danny. Truly an amazing experience.
I came with a friend to see Joni about a septum and nose piercing and were beyond pleased with the results! Joni was fast and professional, he was also very attentive to our needs! He made sure we got exactly what we wanted and did not hesitate to make sure we were set and ready to go. I am fearful of needles and nearly passed out once the needle went in, without me having to say a word, Joni picked up on this and took extra care of me. He provided water, and a wet rag for my head. He allowed us to sit by the door for some fresh air and allowed us to take our time to recover. He is an excellent and attentive piercer, highly recommend Joni and the rest of the crew at Costello Tattoo. Everyone was very welcoming
Very clean and inviting tattoo shop. All the artists were extremely friendly and G-Man did a killer job on my tattoo. It turned out better than I expected- he worked with me on sizing, placement, and styles, we chatted during the whole process and it was a very comfortable experience. Ill definitely be back to Costello and hope to get more ink from Garrick again!
I loved my experience at Costellos Tatto Studio. It was a very exciting moment to walk into a place filled with creativity and talent. I would definitely come back for my next tatto :)
This tattoo shop is the vibe! I had selected shay as an artist after reviewing his work and knowing it was the best fit for the style of tattoo I wanted. We had a full day session, and I mean full day. We started at 10 am and didnt finished until 1 am. Everyone in the shop was kind and shared stories which made the day fly by. Shay made sure we took breaks to eat and rest, so I felt comfortable the entire time. He took my idea and turned it into a piece of art. I always suggest to allow the artist a bit of freedom and they will give you a better piece altogether. They are the artist for a reason. I cannot wait to work with him moving forward, and recommed him and the shop as while for people looking for art work.
Costello is my favourite studio! Andrew gave me the tattoo I’ve been dreaming about for years and it came out better than I could have imagined. I got a dark ribcage tat and i was scared it would be painful, but I was shocked at how easy he made it! Vibe here is great, will definitely be coming back :)
This is my second time coming to Costello Studios and I can not recommend it enough! I’ve gotten a tattoo with Agne twice now and I love them both so much! I can’t wait for whenever my next is. She’s come up with amazing designs and is so friendly and incredible! Everyone there is so sweet and so friendly! The studio is so clean and is just so much fun to be at. I also got a nose piercing here with Costello and the process was fast and as painless as it possibly could be. It’s an incredible spot with so many talented artists and I can not recommend it more. Thank you for everything!
Costello & Emma are without a doubt the best tattoo artists in the LA area! I have been coming to them for the last 3 years and with each appointment they amaze me again and again. I never had so many people stopping me on the street to admire my tattoos until I started coming here. Costello & Emma’s process is so streamlined but also thorough like a well oiled machine. They have an insane eye for detail and their style is siiick. I never have to worry when I give them creative control, they knock it out of the park every time. They also just opened a new shop - meticulously clean and super chill and relaxed vibe… exactly what you want when you sit down for a few hours long appointment. I’m a loyal customer and now a loyal friend! Hit them and their awesome staff up, they won’t disappoint!
I had the BEST experience at this shop. The whole staff was friendly, the shop is very bright and warm, and there was a really cute dog hanging out with people in the lobby. My artist was Agne, I had a big piece with her (was there for 5 1/2 hours). She is an absolute angel and magician! And very friendly and nice to talk to. My tattoo is gorgeous and she has the softest hand Ive ever encountered. I had a lot of fun at this appointment! Very satisfied customer. Highly recommend both Agne and this shop.
By far the best tattoo Ive ever gotten. Ive gotten four other tattoos by two other artists and Costello is on another level. He was very professional and made a beautiful work of art that I am proud to display on my arm. He honestly made it more beautiful than the reference material. I cant wait until I come back and get many more tattoos from him.
Gefen was absolutely awesome. It was my first ever tattoo and she helped me calm down, and did a great job not only with the tattoo but also in making me feel safe throughout the process. The studio felt very clean and welcoming. Im so happy with the work and will definitely come back from my next one! xo
I got my second tattoo done here and had such a lovely experience! the place was so clean and nicely decorated. everyone was so kind and comforting and made me feel totally calm and happy. my tattoo turned out great and they are really easy to get into contact with if you have May questions. will definitely be going back :)
I had the best experience. Andrew did my tattoo and he was equally kind as he was talented. The whole team there are amazing and I just knew when I walked in that I was exactly where I was meant to be. I LOVE my new tattoo by Andrew and will definitely be back!! ♥️
First time in LA yet Everyone who worked here greeted me like a friend. Has a very clean and comfortable atmosphere. All of the artist portfolios are outstanding. I am in love with my final piece. If you find yourself near Ventura and trying to get poked, definitely come here!
This place is a gem! So many talented artists…each with their own unique set of skills and creativity! I had the pleasure to work with Andrew and Shay on two different tattoos and both of them did such a wonderful job. I Highly recommend this place and will definitely go back for more ✨🙏🏼 Y.
Ah! Where to begin? I had such an amazing experience getting a tattoo from Beau! He did such an amazing job capturing everything I wanted my tattoo to be! He was so polite and made me feel so comfortable. I will be returning for more tattoos in the future!
Best tattoo shop in LA! Nohelia is an absolute PRO! She did matching tattoos for my wife and I about a month ago off a walk-in, and we were so happy with her work / the experience that I decided to book an appointment with her this month for another tattoo. And I’m even more in love with this new one! Plan to go back to her for many more over the coming months! The shop has great energy, friendly staff, and Nohelia herself is incredibly talented (and speedy!) 5 stars! HIGHLY recommend :)
Andrew was so professional, accommodating, helpful, artistic and down right amazing! He was on point in every aspect and his line work is absolutely phenomenal. Thank you for getting me in last min and being so helpful with all your amazing ideas and thank you for my tattoo.
Went in to get my third lobe piercing. Costello is so sweet. He took me right away and made the job quick and easy. Would definitely recommend.Ps. I saw him finishing up on a tattoo when I got there on someone else and was very impressed by his work. I’m not a tattoo person, but if I was I would for sure go to him
One of the best places to get a tattoo done in LA, everyone is very friendly and they offer all styles possible so it’s pretty easy to find the right match for what you’re looking for. Always a good place to come!
Amazing service! I was so nervous because it was my first tattoo, and they were really helpfull and kind. Love this place, great experience
I LOVE Costello! I got a rather large piece done by Yakir. He is extraordinarily talented, professional, and friendly! The shop is cool, clean, and welcoming. I plan on returning to get more tattoos. You guys rock!
I stopped by to see Ozzy, I came to him with an idea and he created a beautiful piece that I always get compliments on. he does an amazing job every time can’t wait to see him soon to finish up some work and add some new stuff as well. The shop is a vibe everyone was nice and welcoming.
I had a great experience at Costello Tattoo & Piercing Studio! Specifically I had my first tattoo done by Garrick Gman. The studio was extremely clean and very cool.The tattoo itself was about the size of a cookie. The lines are pretty fine so it took a very steady hand. I was pretty nervous about the pain, but it didnt hurt at all. After the tattoo was done, Garrick patched the tattoo and told me all the steps to keeping it clean and avoiding infection. Since then, the tattoo healed perfectly and looks great. Super crisp lines with no breaks or smudges.I would highly recommend getting a piece done by Garrick Gman!
Amazing atmosphere! Yakir and Andrew thank you for taking us ladies as walkins. Made the end of our business trip fantastic
Gman did me and my moms matching tattoo, I was texted them on instagram and they were very helpful! We were a walk in, got a cute quote on our ribs, it looks great we love it! They are very clean, definitely will go back ☺️
My bestfriend and I just got matching tattoos from Andrew and we love them! He did an amazing job. Great professionalism and a very welcoming and friendly personality. 10/10 will recommend going to him!
I found Yakir by luck and I loved my experience!! He was so patient and thorough, and was constantly checking if I was doing okay. He even gave me pizza 😭I was nervous to try a new artist/shop for myself but everyone was so warm and welcoming and made my 8 hour stay very comfortable:)
This place has to be the best tattoo spot in town, Ozzy is amazing, he is a very talented artist who truly understood my vision and not only brought it to life but exceeded my exceptions far beyond anything I could’ve imagined. Thanks Ozzy and the team at Costello tattoo! I can’t wait for my next one!
Shay did a phenomenal job on my vine tattoo. I’m not an artist by any means but he was able to figure out exactly what I wanted. He pulled up a few pictures online for me to judge from and was able to create this piece for me. He made sure I was comfortable the whole time and accommodated my time constraints. Amazing job overall.
Im in love with my 3 new tattoos ! Arvin was so patient and professional. Thank you!see you soon
I had an awesome time getting tattooed by Agnes! She was ready for me when I got to my appointment and was so nice and welcoming. She perfectly executed the vision I had for my tattoo! It was everything I wanted and more. I also had a great conversation with her and one of the piercers while getting tattooed. I would definitely go back to the shop.
Shout out to Yakir! Great artist with amazing line work! I appreciate how patient and open he was to my tattoo design and didn’t quit until he came up with something dope, definitely would recommend and look forward to our next session! Thanks again Yakir!
Me and my best friend were walk-ins, we showed them a design and the stencils were ready pretty quickly! We did wait a little while since there was only one artist there, but since we were walk-ins it made sense. Getting the tattoo was super comfortable and I absolutely love how it came out! I’d totally come again.
They did such an amazing job on my tattoo! He put so much passion and dedication into the piece and I absolutely love it! Definitely would recommend coming and getting a tattoo with them!
Nadine was amazing, it was my first tattoo so I walked in super nervous but she and the other artists made me feel super comfortable. Couldnt be happier with the way it came out and can’t wait to come back!!
Nadine absolutely slays and is the most talented artist in this studio. Had the best time hanging out with her and getting tatted! She is so wonderful and amazing!!!
GMAN! He designed and tattooed a name on my wrist while I had my two month old with me.. that was a struggle lolhe was so patient and understanding every time my daughter would get fuzzy and we had to stop. He makes you feel like he’s known you forever and the tattoo came out beautiful better than what I asked for. I def recommend him!
Nadine did my newest tattoo and I’m obsessed! I originally just wanted the orange slice. Nadine suggested to add the flowers and leaves and it brought it to another level. I love it!I will be back!
I worked with Nohe on a red ink tattoo on a design she had drawn out before. She was incredibly sweet, professional, and talented in her work and would recommend anyone to get a piece done by her ♥️. She was helpful in placement and her opinions when I asked, so I really appreciated her input! Looking forward to more of her designs and hopefully working with her again soon!The studio itself was clean, has a vibey ambiance, and just a good safe space for this type of work. Parking is street parking (metered, but it was broken and I didn’t pay on it and didn’t get a ticket).
Hands down best tattoo shop I’ve been to. Super friendly staff, Beau did a moth on my hand. The lines on it are perfect and so delicately detailed, dudes got mad talent. Wish I lived in LA cause I’d totally go back for more.
Costello Tattoo & Piercing is a beautiful studio in Sherman Oaks that features a stunning industrial feel with pleasent visual art all around. I received a tattoo from Andrew and am in love with it! My friend had some jewelry exchanged and also had a great experience.The owners, Costello and Emma (I believe), keep a hygienic shop with a wonderful atmosphere. Tokyo, the shop dog, is also so sweet and such a fun pup! I highly recommend this studio for any tattoo or piercing needs.
The best studio for tattoos. Adi was my tattoo artist, she did a stunning sketch for me and was very professional.
Costello’s tattoo shop is one of the coolest and chillest tattoo shops I’ve ever been to! The artists are hella cool and super nice 😊 and make you feel at home 😊 Ozzy has been my go-to artist for the last year since I walked in the shop to get a cover up on my left forearm that ended up turning into a sleeve lol Ozzy’s talent is on another level!
Yakir did an awesome job on inking exactly what I wanted on me. The place has an amazing atmosphere with good music and friendly people. Was very comfortable the whole time and he brought Toph from Avatar: The Last Airbender to life on my arm and I’m glad I went somewhere where you can tell the work is quality. Definitely coming back and would recommend this place to anyone wanting a tattoo
Came in last minute for a septum piercing, they took me in within 5 minutes, great customer service, place is nicely kept, the owner Costello made sure I felt comfortable and attended to my needs. 10/10 I would definitely come here again.
Checked this joint out, for a tattoo, aaaaand first and foremost Id like to point out how dope, and absolutely clean the establishment is. People there are super professional. Got my tattoo done by nadine. She is absolutely sweet and crazy talented, sooo attentive by asking my pain, and comfort level. She was always smiling, keeping up a conversation, all the while as she worked her magic, im so satisfied with my new ink. I highly recommend anyone roll on through and hope you get attended by her you wont regret it, if I could give more that 5 🌟s I soooooo would.
I got my first tattoo by adi who was incredible. Amazing tattoo shop! I would definitely come back for my next tatto.
I did my first tattoo with Costello.I was kind of nervous before I made my decision for it, but he was so professional and patience and was listening to all my requests. Definitely great service!!He did an amazing job and the results came out more than My expectations !!!:)I’m so grateful that I choose Costello to do it!! I’m highly recommending on Costello tattoo!!! Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I’m so happy with my tattoo’s. I had the beautiful experience of treating me with Agnes. she is wonderful, very friendly and her work is perfect. She understood everything I wanted and after a few weeks I went back to her to get other tattoos. I am very grateful and happy!!!
Emma has done 2 tattoos for me (so far 😆) and I love them both so much! She does beautiful tiny lines and dot shading like no one else. The studio has such a fun vibe and everyone is nice and chill. I love coming to hang out here and appreciate Emma’s artistry so much. If you need a tattoo- this is the place to go! 10/10.
Got a couple tattoos from Nadine and I’m obsessed!! She’s so sweet and patient. I love her lines and shading. Definitely coming back for more!
Just got my first tattoo by Andrew & I loved it !I definitely recommend him , he was so kind and patient with me & made sure I was fine.Definitely would come back to him in the future, 10/10 customer service. Thank you Andrew !
Ran and Emma are the ultimate professionals in tattoo artistry. Their facilities are clean and tools/tables are sanitary and pristine.One of the things I loved about the experience was the collaboration and Rans eye for detail. Another cool thing was the ability to make sure my tatt was proportionate to my body and sat the correct way from multiple angles.He’s also a fantastic artist and his work is quick but precise. Emma made me feel very welcome and comfortable as well.It’s not my first tattoo but it IS my first Costello! It was really great to have someone respect my design but help me bring my vision to life with their own creative style.I can’t wait to go back for my next art work. Maybe a Christmas present to myself…!!!
I just want to thank Costello Tattoo Studio for perfecting my new tattoo. Rans attention to detail while he was working on my tattoo helped make my piece turn out exactly how I wanted it too. He worked with me on the sizing and position which I was uneasy about at first. His professionliam helped me make a great decision. The studio is very clean and all the staff members are very kind. I will definitely be returning!
The vibe in this place is just awesome.I was not expecting the studio to be as spacious, clean and chill, which is extra important during COVID, in my opinion.The artists are super cool and friendly, and as a walk in customer, I feel I received all the attention I needed to create the most epic tattoo. Way better than I expected.I gave the artist my input but felt comfortable letting him taking my idea to the next level and I’m so happy for doing so.Shoutout to Costello, hands down the sickest, most talented tattoo artist I’ve met!Thank you for my tattoo.
I just got a tattoo done here and it turned out incredible. Not only did my tattoo artist Yakir give me an insanely good tattoo, but the entire staff was super nice and friendly. The whole place makes you feel so welcomed. I 100% recommend this place if you’re looking to get a tattoo or piercing.
I’ve gotten 3 tattoos from Nohelia (@holisoynohe on IG) at this shop and she is absolutely amazing! There are so many great artists at the shop, but Nohelia always goes above and beyond when she does my tattoos and I can’t be more grateful for her. She recently designed and tattooed my entire back and was so awesome about helping me figure out exactly what I wanted and giving me a beautiful piece! I’ll always recommend Costello’s ❤️
Walked into the shop and the vibe was amazing had a friend take me here who knew Andrew who made us feel super welcoming here, I had gotten a nose piercing from Joni and he killed it I couldn’t have asked for a better job, The shop is super clean and has a killer vibe to it as well would definitely come back here again and give it 10/10 rating. Again thank you to Andrew and Joni for making this a super dope experience!
My husband and I had such a wonderful experience at Costello Tattoo. They are a newly opened tattoo shop in Sherman Oaks that I found online and we were able to book an appointment within days of calling them. Huge plus. All of the artist are so friendly and once we entered the store you instantly can feel good vibes all around. After reading and reviewing information on all the artist we picked ELIZABETH, who was absolutely a pleasure and so talented. Our tattoos had very straight lines & she really has a good steady hand. We had our tattoo mostly focused on letters w/ numbers and WOW I was so impressed. One of the things we really loved was that she really understood our vision and we collaborated to make it what we wanted. She didnt rush and took her time with both of our tattoos. Elizabeth, thank you so much for today! This tattoo had so much meaning that will forever be a reminder of an experience that we want to remember always. Other great things.... They play good music. The owner has a sweet dog named Tokyo. Pricing was very fair. They take walk-ins. We cannot wait to go back. Thanks again Costello Tattoo!!! - Lindsey & Romel
Clean and organized studio. Friendly and professional staff. Absolutely love my tattoo, th attention to detail is incredible.
Emma is such an amazing tattoo artist- she is patient and gentle and so talented. She has done 9 tattoos on my arm that we are working on turning into a sleeve. Her work is so precise and her line work is delicate. I highly recommend Costello tattoo studio and think Emma is one of the best artists in Los Angeles
I’ve been to many tattoo shops all over the country, and Costello is the ONLY shop I will refer people to. The line work is impeccable. The attention to detail and accuracy is top notch. Also if you need help designing your tattoo, they provide the most creative, modern, beautiful design inspiration. I will never go anywhere else for a tattoo. Located conveniently on Ventura in Sherman Oaks, street parking is so easy. The tattoo shop itself is extraordinarily clean, chic, and comfortable. A lot of selfie opportunities. And they sell the coolest bucket hats! Love it here so much. I’ve already referred 5 friends here.
I went in for the first time to have a tattoo fixed that was done by a different artist (very poorly) and Nohelia fixed it perfectly!! She was a fantastic artist and very sweet! She fit me in her schedule on the same day I inquired! Highly recommend Costello’s
I will be returning to Costello’s very soon! it’s in a great location in Sherman Oaks with a beautiful setup and a family like staff. Sasha blew my mind with her talent and end result of my tattoo. i couldn’t imagine anything better. it instantly became my absolute favorite tattoo i have. can’t wait to receive more from her!!
Andrew is very patient and talented. Everyone there was really funny and nice!! We came up from Nevada and they got 3 of us in last minute and we had a blast with this team. Highly recommend! 💖
I has a great experience at Costello Tattoo, I love my new tattoo and I Will come back for more in the future, they have great costumer care
Every time I go to the studio it’s such a pleasant experience. Ozzy always shows me a great time in addition to the amazing work he is doing on my leg sleeve. i highly recommend him and his work to anyone. Instagram @ozzytat2
The attention was very good, a great place to get a tattoo. They gave me all the care instructions. I will come back to get another one
Costello was so amazing! There was a flash sale for tattoos, but I got the day mixed up. He was so accommodating and gave me an amazing tattoo with the same love. The whole team is great. I would highly recommend coming here :)
I was so scared to get my first tattoo but my friend recommended me with Garrick.! He’s so passionate, professional, talented, patient and made the whole process a breeze. Highly recommend getting a tattoo from him.
Me and my husband did this amazing tattoo by S.N ink (Shay). He’s so professional and doing a clean job and also so friendly. I would definitely recommend to do a tattoo with him and also all of the workers over there are really nice people with a good vibe🤩
Just left the shop and got our helix pierced. Took my 11 year old and she was so scared but David did an amazing job and was so kind and patient with her. 10/10 would come back (:
This is a great spot! I went in for a Friday the 13th tattoo. Shay did a great job on my little ghost face. Happy with how it turned out! Definitely recommend Shay and Costello Studio!
I had such a great experience getting my tattoo done here, that I took my mom to get additional ear piercings. The process was simple, quick and she is super happy with the results! The area is really clean, everyone is super nice and make the entire experience very comfortable. Im now considering another ear piercing and would go here to do it.
Looking for a wicked talented artist? Trust my friend Andrew to decorate your skin 🤘🏼😈Light hand, great attention to detail, and well priced.All around awesome vibes and really cool people at this shop 🙌
Highly recommend! Great work! Very Organized! The place is very clean.You pay for the quality of service! Im very pleased with not only the tattoos but with the artist/owners Costello and Emma! They were very precise, And professional Thank you!
This is genuinely the best tattoo shop that i’ve ever been to! Costello is an amazing artist & I am so ecstatic to go back and get more work done by him eventually. Not only did he create the coolest dragonfly piece for my arm, but he also covered up an old tattoo of mine & the results were amazing. go to this shop for your tattoo needs!!!
Very good experience!Nadine is great, all the other artists and the vibe in general was great, I’ll definitely be happy to be back for the next one!
Went in with my boyfriend on Valentine’s Day and got matching tattoos from Nadine. Her lines were crisp and clear and the tattoos came out amazing! Will be going back to her for more!
I’ve been getting work done by Costello and the team for years now. Hands down the best tattoo artists in the world work in this shop. The customer service I receive time after time is the reason I come back. Even if it’s a simple tattoo or a large piece, it’s always the same full service from brainstorming the idea till the healing process is complete and after. 10/10 recommend
I had a really good experience with Sunny who does piercings! Sunny pierced my nostril and it was quick and fairly painless (I hate pain!). The place was clean, good atmosphere, with friendly staff that are very fast (they dont take forever to get to you or do a service for you.) Definitely recommend this place.
Friendly and calm environment, perfect for anxious people like myself. Yakir did an excellent job on my tattoo and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. If you’re looking for an animanga tattoo artist, Yakir is your guy 😊👏🏼
I came to this place to get my first tattoo and although I was nervous about it everyone was very welcoming and friendly.I met up with Yakir and he talked me through the process and he explained everything step by step he worked on the design I wanted and I could not be happier with the end result. I will definitely be coming back to Yakir for more tattoos in the future!
Got my dream tattoo here by yakir. He does amazing anime tattoo art I got a tattoo of inuyasha and kagome from the anime inuyasha and it’s so beautiful definitely my fave tattoo the detail is so nice. Check out his Instagram @yakir.tattooer. He is a really chill guy, the shop has a really nice vibe because all of the artist talk like they are family and having a good time doing what they love. Yakir has done some of the best anime tattoos I’ve seen, so if you love anime and your thinking of getting a new price of body art this is your guy.
What a vibe this tattoo shop is! Costello tattoos really know how to create such a fun experience especially for Friday the 13th! Great team of artists, amazing music that makes it feel like a party, and so hospitable offering mini açaí bowls, empanadas and Diet Coke… a dream come true. Me and my best friend got tattoos from him before and we will continue to support Costello, Ozzy and the team for all of time! Def the best tattoo spot in LA!
Me and 2 friends had appointments with Agne and felt welcomed from the moment we stepped into the studio all the way until we were done (: The studio itself was super clean and professional. Everyone there was really nice too. I’m from out of town but will definitely come back when I get the chance!
This is my second tattoo that I’ve got at this shop and I will definitely be coming back for more. Emma and Andrew gave me two tattoos that were exactly what I was looking for. The eye for detail and care for their work makes this place one of the best tattoo shops around. Thank you Emma and Andrew
My friend and I got pierced but the way we both were pierced was unprofessional. We didn’t sign any waivers and weren’t prepped.My piercing is practically falling off and a piece of the piercing equipment fell into my friends ear during her session. Really wanted to love this place :(
My mom, my husband and I got tattooed at Costello. They are professional, creative and pleasant. Very satisfied
Got my first tattoo with Agne and it was a really wonderful experience. she is really sweet and made the entire process feel very exciting and comfortable. Agne asked all the right questions and had great attention to detail; she completely exceeded my expectations of what getting a tattoo would be! i also love the tattoo shop itself! it is really clean and has a nice ambiance. it’s safe to say i am hooked and will definitely be coming back to Agne for more tattoos in the very near future :)
This is the best tattoo place in Los Angeles! Ran is super talented. He perfectly executed the vision I had for what I wanted. He made the concept of my idea into a reality that passed my expectations. All I can say is go here! They are extremely talented and I highly highly recommend!
I found Costello on Google after reading some reviews and I am so glad I dropped in. I needed to take out my nose piercing for a medical procedure and I was (no exaggeration) devastated at the thought of the piercing closing. But I went into Costello (without an appointment) and they had plastic nose rings specifically made for surgical procedures. The man who swapped the rings for me was kind and careful; it did not hurt at all. I would go back to Costello for all piercing needs and highly recommend it!
I have two back dermals in my back and I decided that I need to take One of them out because it was irritating me so I called and made an appointment for today. I came and Costello made what couldve been a very painful process short and sweet. He explained what he was doing and didn’t hurt me or force it out. He was very gentle and caring and I would highly recommend going to him if you have any dermal piercing issues. Thank you 🙏
Sasha is amazing! She made me feel comfortable with the process of picking the tattoo, where to place it and helped chill me out while applying. Couldn’t ask for an easier and comfortable experience.Thank you Sasha! & everyone at Costello!
The best experience I’ve had in a piercing shop/tattoo shop. All of the staff was very accommodating and sweet. They worked with us and got me what I wanted. Yoni was very caring and attentive while giving me my piercings. Would definitely recommend to get a piercing or tattoo here. 5 stars all the way ❤️
I discovered Costello’s work on Instagram and was absolutely blown away by his work. I spent a lot of time looking for an artist that I trusted to design this piece for me in honor of my mother who recently passed away from cancer. He did a beautiful job and brought my vision to life, I truly couldn’t be happier. Thank you Costello!!!!
Costello was quick, professional and very kind. He helped me replace a tongue piercing jewelry and I felt very confident from the moment I walked into the shop. Easy and painless, I will be back to get some tattoos! 100% recommend this shop.
Agne did such a beautiful job designing and tattooing a small, thin line flower tattoo! She was very kind and made sure that we were comfortable the whole time. The place was also clean and prices were more than fair. I am so excited for my next one, Agne is the BEST!! 10/10 recommend.
Awesome work! Very chill environment. The owner did my nose piercing and he was very straight to the point - I was in and out and didnt hurt as much as I imagined. Nice guy and nice beard! 1000% recommend
These guys are professional, kind, and great at their craft.Shoutout to Shay for his artistic vision and work. He gave me a sick piece and made a beautiful design.
I would definitely recommend Elizabeth at Costello Tattoo to anyone looking for a safe, supportive, and pleasant tattoo experience. Elizabeth adjusted her schedule to fit me and my friend in before she left for the night. she was very patient as we explained the details of what we both wanted. I asked her to add some cattails to a previous tattoo of a pintail duck and I’m very happy with the result.
I just moved to la and was looking for someoneprofessional to take care of my tattoos and piercings.Happened to pass by Costello tattoo studio and made anappointment. As i arrived everything was done veryprofessionally and i didnt have to wait a moment.I got the best tattoo of my of my life and even moreimportant i got amazing service.Definitely recommend for anyone looking to get anythingdone.
I have been going to Costello and Emma for a few years! They are the best tattoo artist out there. The shop is very clean. They are so professional. I can’t wait to get more tattoos done by them.
Costello & Joni were so great! I walked in late curious about this place after hearing so many good things about their tattoos & piercings.They were able to take care of me right away.Joni did my tragus & shen men piercings - it was clean, safe, done so precise and exactly how I wanted!Love it so much & can’t wait to go back - highly recommend them and this establishment!!!!!
Great place! Costello was kind enough to fix my nose piercing for free. The atmosphere was good and everything was so clean. I will definitely be going back.
Found Yakir through an anime tattoo ad on Instagram, took a shot on him, 110% worth it. Gave him an anime character that hasn’t been tattooed before with very few reference photos and he created such a great original piece. Professional, listened to my thoughts and input, gave me a tattoo that I’m unbelievably happy with, will absolutely be getting tattooed by him again.
Went here to get my septum ring switched out to a new one. they were out of the one I needed but they ordered it & I went back a week later and got it changed. amazing environment and artists, def coming back here for tattoos & piercings in the future :)
Ive been to Costello for a few Flash tattoo events and its always been a great time! I was tattooed by Andrew who was great and easy to work with and even took a suggestion of mine to add to a flash sheet for Friday the 13th!
I got a tattoo with Agnė and it’s become my favorite tattoo! She was so patient and detailed when designing the tattoo with me and asked all the questions that I didn’t think to ask. The process was incredible and she took her time to get every detail just right. Agnė is such an amazing artist and I cannot wait to go back to her for more tattoos!
It’s not my first time getting a tattoo or piercing but I think their Customer Service care was great!! They are friendly and open to any suggestions, if you have any! Very informative about aftercare and any questions. If you have any. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area or for anyone who visits L.A! :)
Loved everything about this place! The artists was very friendly and they helped me to take deccision about the design of my tattoo.
Andrew was super easy to work with and gave me exactly what I wanted. Grateful they are open earlier than most other studios, I was able to walk in with no appointment and walk out with two small tattoos in just over an hour
I went to Costellos tattoo shop for a cover up on my ribs. I have nothing but amazing things to say about the artists and my experience. Costello did such an incredible job and always made sure I was comfortable. The design fits my body perfectly! I’m already thinking up more tattoos!! 😍
Had a great experience getting my tattoo done by Yakir at Costello Tattoo Studio! Very talented artist and amazing art done, my tattoo is better than I even imagined, definitely will be getting more tattoos done by Yakir in the future!
I got my first two tattoos here and it was a great experience for me. I came by myself and Ran my tattoo artist was professional, prepared and made the whole process so comfortable for me. I am so happy with the finished product.
Nadine was my artist she was so sweet and thorough with my tattoo and making sure it was perfect :) highly recommend her!! Thank you so much
My sister and cousin amid I went to get butterfly tattoos in memory of our aunt and all are artist we’re amazing! We all LOVE our butterflies!! What a great experience from beginning to end highly recommend this place! Thank you!!
My piercer was John! Dude was very calm and made me feel comfortable. I asked him to pierce my nose with two hoops what I like to call spider bites. John marked my nose for placement multiple times to make sure that I felt comfortable. He accommodated me moving the ring around, gauge, and hoop size. Once he pierced me he cleaned all tools in front of me. He pierced me and I immediately started sweating. He was very professional and didn’t let my body’s reaction stress him out, his calmness let me calm down a lot quicker than I expected. The second piercing was breeze. Highly recommend this legend! Thanks John!
After more then 20 years since my last tattoo, I had to do coverup . I met with Costello and felt its the right guy to do the job. With a lot of confidence and no pressure we did brainstorming and immediately after the tattoo it self..Couldnt be happier
Really enjoyed working with Agne to bring my hand tattoo ideas to life. She was so patient with me, and brought her creativity and expertise to the design process. Looking forward to going back soon!!
So good!! mike did my piercings! i got an eyebrow piercing on each side and they were super professional and worked with me to make sure the placement was correct. he walked me through the whole thing and it was super good! would come again!
Got my first ever tattoo on valentine’s day and Costello made that experience comfortable, easy and fun. He was so welcoming and professional and overall it was a great experience and would definitely come again in the future.
The environment and staff were welcoming and the artists there are very talented and felt comfortable with bringing in a design. I looove how my tattoo came out and hope to go again for more ink☺️
Tattoo virgin here! I am content and most likely will come again for more.
Nohelia did an amazing piece for me. she was so wonderful to work with. Absolutely love the way my tattoo came out. Will be coming back!
Mike did a wonderful job piercing my ears. It didn’t hurt. He answered all of my concerns and was extremely patient. Thank you. I love it!
The owner and artists are impatient and will charge you the most amount of money. Save your time and go to more experienced shops, dont be fooled with some small tattoo piece pictures on the reviews. I had a big piece done and seriously had to push on fixing it as they kept delaying.
