REVIEWS
"I don’t even know where to begin! There aren’t words to describe how amazing my experience with Andres was. Walking into the space, it was very clean, inviting, and decorated with the most unique and fascinating decor. The placement of my tattoo comes with a certain degree of discomfort, as well as exposure, both of which I was pretty nervous about. However, Andres was always very professional, and made me feel so comfortable. I waited over five years for a tattoo from Andres, and it was worth every minute. The final result is beyond anything I could have imagined. The tattoo looks so real and lifelike, like I could grab it right off my skin. The color is so bright and is flawlessly layered and blended. It’s perfect. I am so grateful to Andres for his talent, professionalism, and for making my tattoo experience truly unforgettable."

"The private class with Andrés was the hands down the best thing I could have done for my tattoo career. We went over concepts, color theory, and had flowing conversations where I felt comfortable asking anything I wanted to know about tattooing. We tattooed all day together while discussing his process, techniques, and how I can improve my skillset to become a better tattoo artist. I feel confident and inspired to take my tattooing to the next level after my class with Andrés, and I would highly recommend this class to anyone who looking to do the same."
