Jason is an AMAZING artist. He makes you feel comfortable when he's inking you. He's honest. Love the way this studio is family-run. I highly recommend DC Tattoo here in Daly City, CA. ???Thank you Jason can't wait till your next creation on me ???

“Leo does beautiful fine line wok. My daughters and I have been to this shop many times. If you are looking for fine line work this tattoo shop is the place to go. We haven't been to the new locaton but the artists are the same so I'm certain it's great. One draw back, I wish they took credit cards. ; )“

“This is a long review, so I below I posted “Short Story” followed by a more detailed “My Awesome Experience with Morningstar Tattoo Parlor”.

SHORT STORY:
Morningstar Tattoo far exceeded my expectations in every way; their facility is comfortable, clean, and professional. My Tattooist, Jordi Simmons, did an amazing job throughout the whole design and application process. You will not be disappointed with Morningstar!

MY AWESOME EXPERIENCE WITH MORNINGSTAE TATTOO PARLOR:
I never thought I would ever be a “Tattoo Guy.” However, after my daughter suddenly passed away at age 30 in 2022, I wanted to have something that keeps her spirit with me and will always be with me wherever I go and whatever I do. After about a year of introspection, I decided that a memorial tattoo for my daughter would be highly appropriate for me. After much research on local Tattoo shops, I decided to work with Morningstar Tattoo Parlor.

When I first visited Morningstar, I was amazed that this parlor was not like tattoo parlors as portrayed in the media. Morningstar occupies a spacious, clean, comfortable, and professional series of suites on the second and third floors of their building. They are by appointment only, original artwork only, and they have several policies that strike me as highly professional.

When I reached out to Morningstar, Jordi Simmons returned my call, and after a brief conversation, I felt comfortable proceeding with Jordi as my tattooist.

My whole experience with Jordi, given her professionalism, creativity, artistry, and skill was outstanding! Jordi and I initially met for about 2 hours, and she really took the time to understand why I wanted this tattoo, what my what my daughter was like in life (the good and the bad), my spiritual beliefs regarding life, sentience and death, and other topics personally relevant and meaningful to me. Jordi also clearly described what she could and could not do with tattoo designs, such as font sizes, resolution, and other things to consider with the design. I gave Jordi some initial concepts of what might work for a design concept as a starting point.

Over the next 4 months Jordi and I periodically corresponded via email about design concepts to be considered. When I arrived on the day we had scheduled for the tattoo to be applied, we hadn’t yet settled on a final design, and Jordi presented the latest design she developed for me.

I was absolutely blown away at the design she created!

The design is way beyond anything I had thought possible. The image Jordi created for me captures an amazing amount symbolism about what my daughter was like in life, my spiritual beliefs regarding life and death, and other aspects of my daughter’s short life. The images, and even the relative placement of numbers, text, and images carries deep symbolism and meaning for me. Jordi quickly incorporated some very small changes to the design based on my feedback, and then it was time to apply the tattoo.

The initial application was a 3-hour sitting at Jordi’s station, toward the end of which, my skin was getting irritated enough that Jordi advised that we should stop, because continuing the application that day could compromise the quality of the final tattoo. Because of this, we ended our session for the day and scheduled a second sitting 3 weeks later.

During the interim time between the first and second application, I researched Tattoo best practices for design and application. This helped me really understand in detail that Jordi had carefully planned of the tattoo’s overall size, orientation, and placement that otherwise I would not have noticed. Everything Jordi did was according to the best practices I researched; Jordi planned for a tattoo that will displays and ages well.

We finished the tattoo during our second sitting of about an hour and a half and I am beyond h“

“I shopped around to get my tattoo and chose this one knowing it might cost a bit more. I was impressed by the shop aesthetic and the overall vibe of the shop and I really enjoyed talking to Vic the owner and tattoo artist. I figured since he owned his own studio his work would be better and he told me he has had his own studio for 14 years and I will say it really shows in his professionalism. I went with a custom design and worked with Vic on a lot of ideas and I enjoyed the back and forth we had between artist and client and the end product is a piece that I really enjoyed. I did my piece yesterday and it is recovering great, it's barely red and there's not a lot of swelling. And I can say he absolutely blew me away with the design, and the process and even the price. I am super stoked, my mom hated the idea of me getting a second tattoo at first but she absolutely loves it. Can not wait to come back. You literally can not go wrong here.“

“Jia is amazing, the final work is even better than I thought. Highly recommended to everyone who wants a pet portrait.“

“i am obsessed and in love with my new tattoo. I called around noon and was able to get in by 4 pm. I had it done today by Todd who helped me cover up an old one. He was able to adjust the proportions and the placement turned out perfect. He is such a talented artist and was a great person to talk to :) I was pretty nervous but I truly appreciate how he made me feel comfortable and the process went smoothly. I have a really low pain tolerance so needles make me dizzy, but the way he worked with me and talked to me made me feel safe and I felt great both during and after the whole thing! It was a laid back experience and it didn’t hurt like I expected. The style of this tattoo is so new and bold for me and it turned out amazing! Red is my favorite color and this 1000% matched my aesthetic! I have more tattoos planned and I will definitely be going back. Thank you so so much!Services: Color ink tattoos“

“Great shop great vibes i went in for a couples of tattoos and I love them very professional and good quality :) definitely coming back for more“

“I have been getting cut by Net for over ten years. He is a professional in his craft and keeps the shop in a meticulous state. The attention to detail, customer service, and consistency goes above and beyond. Also, Net's super realistic artwork around the shop provides a unique atmosphere. His steady hand sets him apart from the rest. If you need a cut for any event, be sure to book an appointment at Studio 348! Thanks for always keeping me fresh.“

“I cry as I write this post, because this treatment has given me back the confidence I lost after going through breast cancer treatment (chemo). I have tried EVERY product on the market (even products recommended by my doctor) and nothing has worked. I've had one treatment so far and my hair has has grown back to the point where people stop and ask if I am wearing a wig - they can't believe it! For anyone who went thru cancer and lost their hair - TRY this. I can't wait for my second treatment. Thank you, thank you for making feel like I once did. Forever grateful!“

“I want to give a quick update on this tattoo, as my kids were asking about it. I have to say, I get compliments on this tattoo all the time - once people realize there's a tattoo there. I had no idea how this one would turn out and/or what's this going to look like years later. I am so glad I went in and got it in white years ago!“

“I called Ramon to schedule an appointment, and he said to come in. He recommended Jose to me. I explained to Jose that I had a small tattoo done somewhere in Burlingame, but I thought it was too plain and expensive for such a tiny tattoo. I shared my idea of adding small, intricate details to it. I was pleasantly surprised by the great job he did at a reasonable price and his patience with me. I am happy with the result and thankful for fixing the look of my small tattoo. I definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants a big or small tattoo done by the best artists.“

“Excelente atención muy buen trabajo echo con la más excelente calidad muy recomendable para todo publico q le gusten los tatuajes“

“As a person who never thought of getting tattoos, I would like to mention artist Jen (@cyi.exist) for making my whole experience comfortable and relaxing when getting my first tattoo. Her communication, dedication, and creativity when it came to the planning, sketching, and application of the tattoo were amazing. Fast-forward a couple of months, and I just recently got half of an arm sleeve done with Jen. She was always welcoming and always put her hardest efforts into her art. I highly recommend it!“

“Got a simple chest tattoo from Van. I made an appointment online so they got me in right away and he was done in less than 30 minutes or so. I am very pleased with how it turned out. Definitely recommend this local shop. Will be back again in the future. Thanks for the good work Van.

Cleanliness: Very clean and hygienic“

“Nick and all the artists at Godspeed Tattoo are exceptionally talented and truly wonderful people. I’ve been a loyal client for about twenty years and recently went in looking for a traditional style scorpion species endemic to Brazil. Nick designed an absolutely perfect representation of the animal. His shop is clean, the flash is stunning, and I’ll always be a customer for life. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“My friends and I had an appointment with James to get some tattoos. We showed up a few minutes before our appointment but he was ready for us. We filled out the forms and he had our sketches ready. Once we finalized the sizes he started on us right away. James was fast and efficient and we all loved our tattoos. Would definitely go to him again!“
