“I was up in Humboldt county to vacation from SoCal to see the trees and gain some peace after the stressful semester and losing my 6 month old cat, spoon. I was in search of a tattoo artist who could help me out with getting a memorial tattoo for him as I wanted to honor him and have him with me forever. I got into contact with Alexa, as I seen her work on instagram and loved her skill. She was available within the week of my vacation and was very flexible with scheduling with times and days. Her tattooing and drawing are very talented, as she drew the design directly on my body and tattooed without a printed stencil. She knew exactly what I had envisioned and executed it perfectly. The shop is very clean, friendly, and welcoming. All of the staff are amazing and everyone’s artwork looks stellar. I want to thank Alexa again for her amazing art and comforting atmosphere. When I come back (I will be back to Humboldt!) I will definitely make it a MUST to come back to this shop. Don’t hesitate booking an appointment!! (:“
“Wow my daughter and I got our matching tattoos and this place hooked us up. Very clean and professional
Requested style: My daughter had a fine line tattoo
Cleanliness: If this is something that kept you away from other shops, please know this is the cleanest shop I have ever seen.“
“Incredible experience. Mike is an amazing artist! If you’re not getting tattooed at Primate, you’re going to the wrong place!!!“
“Went in for a flash with my partner--had a great experience. Alejandro did an impeccable job with our tattoos. Was very kind and made some beautiful art! A lot of the art in the shop is traditional tattoo style, but these guys do all sorts of styles. Alejandro has some really cool Mayan designs, though we ended up going with a botanical. Highly recommend this shop. Clean, great to work with, and of course great artists!“
