    Great first experience there. I had the jewelry for my helix switched out and the piercing inspected to make sure it's healing up correctly. Pierre was very kind, gentle, accommodating, knowledgeable, helpful and professional. Really a great experience. I plan to go to him when I am ready for my next piercing AND to top it off...great prices to boot. 10/10 would recommend.

    Love this shop!!! My wife and I went on a day trip to SD and got tattoos by Pierre. He is an amazing artist. He has done it all! From small tattoos to big pieces. Wouldn’t trust anyone else to do that. He really does amazing work! 10/10 recommend 👏🏻❤️

    Ray is very amazing, I’ve been going to him for all of my tattoos so i recommend to anyone going anywhere for a tattoo that they should come to American Tattoo’s San Diego. His customer service is like having another brother, I love everyone here and i would like to see more people come by and show love to him and his work.
