Professional Energetic Amazing Job Recommend Chill Environment

The entire place was nice and dope. The artist that tattooed me was Enzo and was extremely energetic and professional. He was thoughtful and played tv while tattooing me and did an amazing job on the piece. Would recommend this place if you are looking to get a anime tattoo or anything β€œnerdy”. Real dope and chill environment and people.

Great Experience Friendly Staff Skilled Artist

10/10 will come again, it was my first tattoo and my artist was Enzo. I was scared af but the environment, my artist and talking to other people calmed me down and made me feel relaxed.

Great Artist Fast Service

Words cant do justice just how positive an experience this was. Mark Moss was my artist and he absolutely nailed the tattoo I wanted. From bouncing ideas about the stencil and placement of the tattoo to knocking it out super fast. This is definitely my go to spot for tattoos going forward.

Anime Tattoos Professional Staff Modern Space Great Tattoo Artist Knowledgeable

I just moved into the neighborhood and was casually walking and ran into this place. I am a huge anime fan and couldn't believe there was a tattoo parlor that specialized in ANIME TATTOOS right in my neighborhood. The entire staff is very welcoming and knowledgeable about not only every anime you can name off Crunchyroll but very professional and knowledgable when it comes to tattooing itself. The space is modern and the design of anime on the walls is so cool! They even have anime playing on flat screen TV's in the parlor. My tattoo artist Wolf (IG = wolftattoos216_1up) was not heavy handed what so ever. His lines and detail in his art is impeccable. I really appreciated the knowledge and tips he gave me about tattoos. The healing process is going great with my tat as well. Very professional and the nicest artist I've worked with. I 100% recommend booking in with Wolf at 1UP Ink West in Koreatown!! Love my Eva tat!
