11375 San Pablo Ave, El Cerrito“Dave knew things about my tattoo I didn't even know I wanted. Great service, aftercare, timelessness, respectfulness and knowledge of his craftsmanship. For the occasion I requested two pieces on my lower forearm. He assisted me with every detail, from sizing of both the art and font of lettering. making sure the art was historically accurate, and well fitted to my form. He gave me tips on both the placement and color scheme for my piece. I have art on my body from Japan, New Zealand, Hawaii, Los Angeles, and I'm proud to collaborate with ACE Tattoo to add another piece.“

When he was working on my tattoo, he was telling me how much fun it was for him. That sense of joy really shone through the entire process.“

5251 Broadway, Oakland“I love to get tattoos while visiting different towns. My first experience with Old Crow Tattoo was so great that booked an appointment there again when I was traveling through town a year later. Both artists were friendly and did exactly what I was looking for. The ambiance of the space is awesome and very comfortable. All the artists that I interacted with were friendly. Booking an appointment both times was easy and the price was very reasonable. I will definitely book something there again next time I'm in town!“

6399 Telegraph Ave, Oakland“I found O Tattoo on yelp and was drawn to the female owned studio. All the artists' bios with their work made it easy to focus in on whose style was a match for what I wanted done. The studio was bright, clean and relaxed. It felt like going in for a self care day. I had a tattoo by Arie and worked with her by email to narrow down what I was looking for- flowery, flowing fine line piece that incorporated a tattoo I already had. Arie created a few designs that were just as I'd hoped for. I am very pleased. Arie was friendly, professional and gentle. I've already recommended her and O Tattoo to a friend.“

5251 Broadway, Oakland“I've had many hours of ink at Old Crow over the years and trust them fully! While there are many tattoo artists in my town, I drive 2 hours to this shop specifically, and will continue to follow them wherever they move. The resident artists are as professional as they are talented, and the guests are just as phenomenal. Thank you Old Crow!“

Joe was very friendly when we first met as a walk-in, we continued communicating through emails with the idea for my tattoo. Once I arrived we chose the size and placement. I got comfortable and before I knew it we were finished.
Thank You,
Joe ?

1124 Polk St, San Francisco“A bit of a biased review, I've gotten 3/3 of my tattoos done here and likely will return for my 4th. Now that said, there's a reason I've come here 3 times. Each tattoo was by a different artist from the shop and every experience was outstanding. All of the artists were very helpful and thorough when planning and placing, setting expectations and going at a pace that was comfortable for me. As someone with a lot of anxiety getting my first tattoo was extremely difficult, however with a big life event just happening, it felt fitting to memorialize the moment and working with Eric was perfect. I walked in on a random weekday, told him why I wanted the tattoo and within hours was in the shop placing the stencil. Throughout the tattoo he was very engaged but focused and really helped me get through the session, and the hurdle of tattoos in general. Max did my second piece, we iterated a little on the art but he was super accepting of what I wanted. I know it's my tattoo but it's also his art so I want to respect that. The process was in 3 steps, took a few hours but honestly after a few sections it flew by. Kat tattooed my 3rd and most recent piece. (Image included) I really loved her work shared online and was excited to see her join the shop. I had this concept/illustration of my tattoo and asked her if she would be interested in working on it but obviously with her style. She killed it, she also made a point to match the colors from my first 2 tattoos into the 3rd so that why they all blend well. Sitting in the session with her was super comfortable, anxiety left after a few minutes and couldn't be happier with the experience.“

Dylan was very open to me being highly involved in the design, allowing for a slow process over weeks before we proceeded with the final piece. This is all very rare for tattoo artists ~ i searched for this for over a year !! He's so lovely to team with, easy to talk to, and a great listening with all that arises as you're going through all the pain during those hours. i recommend him in a heartbeat !!!! Thank you .. Thank you .. Thank you Dylan ~ you're a gem !!“

918 San Pablo Ave, Albany“Since 2017, I have had the pleasure of getting tattooed from an incredibly talented artist, Andre Malcolm. He not only possesses extraordinary skills but also creates his own ink, which makes him truly unique. From start to finish, the experience was nothing short of exceptional, leaving me with pieces of art that far exceeded my expectations. Andre’s technical prowess is truly awe-inspiring. Every stroke, line, and detail he brought to life on my skin showcased his precision and mastery of the craft. His ability to effortlessly transform ideas and concepts into beautiful, personalized designs is a testament to his talent. Each piece he creates is a unique work of art that tells a story, capturing the essence of my vision with remarkable accuracy. Not to mention, his kind, caring, and jovial demeanor contributed to a relaxed, comfortable, and enjoyable experience, making the sessions all the more memorable. So, if you're looking for a remarkable tattoo experience that goes above and beyond, I wholeheartedly encourage you to visit Andre.“

471B 9th St, Oakland“Shawna is amazing! From the time I first made contact with her on-line to in-person she was so professional and cheerful. Once Shawna started she kept me informed throughout the process. Shawna is very personable and clearly is very skilled at her craft. I’m a cancer survivor, so having lost my hair and eyebrows twice after chemo treatments my eyebrows grew back very sparse. She made them look so natural and they look fantastic!! I’m extremely happy and will recommend all of my friends and family! Thank you Shawna for making me feel whole again.-Tina AlvarezServices: Microshading“
