Read More On Citysearch fairychick 7/31/2005 - Easy, clean, fun tatoosBoth my tattos, and any future tats will be done in this store. I chose designs that were in my head and 2 separate artists created exactly what I wanted out of very little information from me. A friend had recommended Studio City Tattoos because she had gone in and asked all the questions you would ever want to know and every answer was what she wanted to hear and my first session was also her...

Read More On Citysearch slaveofallevil 7/25/2005 - Woman Friendly!!!Lots of shops are too macho and women feel uncomfortable in them. I felt right at home at Studio City Tattoo (the pirate theme is great,), the guys are respectful, I got a wonderful tattoo from Nina, great woman artist, and I found the owner, Clay, to be polite and professional. Great aftercare instructions for the tattoo and the piercings I got. Count me as a return customer.

Read More On Citysearch bigjason 7/14/2005 - the place for cupcakes.Though you can get a hansome cupcake tattooed on your ass, I wasn't serious. Whatever it is you're looking for, go here first. The best artists, the best piercers, and they have swords!!!! To amplify the extremity of my faith in this shop, I live in san francisco, and I refuse to go anywhere else but studio city tattoo.
cheers,
kenya

Read More On Citysearch mrmoonlight13 7/12/2005 - the Nordstrom's of Tattoo and PiercingFinally! Upscale tattoo and piercing. Really fun to go to, lots to look at, not your usual tats on the wall kind of place. Even if you aren't going to get a tattoo, you need to see the attention to detail they've gone to. I felt instantly at ease. Everything autoclaved and super clean. Got a tattoo and a piercing and was super pleased with both. Thanks!
Read More On Citysearch alfafemme 7/12/2005 - Outstanding work / Unbelievably Clean Shop!I visited Studio City Tattoo to just check out the scene, and was really impressed by their layout and procedures for making sure the equipment they use is clean and sterilized.
The shop owner, Clay, actually took the time to explain the process to me (I'm new to it!) and it reminded me of how medical offices sterilize their equipment.
I highly recommend the shop to ANYONE who is considerin...
