THE ARCADE OCEANSIDE TATTOO REVIEWS

My family and I were visiting and decided to stop in for a small family tattoo. Got in that same day and it was great! Love the atmosphere, I loved the way things were set up. We had such a great experience that my 2 kids went back the next day for another tattoo. I can’t remember the tattoo artist name but he was the frist tattoo artist as you come in.

Very professional and on point.! Zach is the best in my opinion with beautiful art and a eye for art the way you want it . I will invite all my friends to experience Zach's perfection in his art profession..!.

I keep looking at my arm in disbelief, I knew I'd love my tattoo but had no idea Nate would crush it- I cannot take my eyes off of it. Artists and staff were very helpful & friendly and the shop is filled with art and history. I couldn't be happier, so glad I stopped in!.

FRONTLINE TATTOO CO REVIEWS

I Had Stopped in a Different Shop Earlier in the Day, and Wasn't Feeling Really Great About the Artist I Spoke With About My Cover Up. Couldn't Get It Out of My Mind and Happened Upon Frontline Because They Were Open Later. Best Luck Ever! Dalton Curry Was Working and We Talked Through What We Could Do to Cover Up My Old Shoulder Pieces, Looking at Examples on the Walls, Talking Through Things I Liked Etc-- I Was Desperate to Cover These Tattoos but Had No Idea What to Do With Them. He Was Super Patient and Helpful. We Decided to Go Big So He Wanted a Few Days to Draw Up the Design- So Worth It! Price Was Totally Fair, It Broke Down Hourly to Be a Great Deal. When I Walked in for My Appointment It Was on the Counter Waiting for Me, and It Was Perfect. He Blocked the Whole Shift for Me, and Got It Done in One Go. Was Gracious When I Got Squirmy Towards the End. (My Bad Dude!) I Get So Many Compliments, and I'm So Happy to Have Those Old Tattoos Gone, Especially Covered in My Creepy Cute Polkadot Snakes Thank You Dalton! Changed My Lil Life!.

I've been tattooed by both PJ and Anton and they are wonderful tattoo artists and very friendly people! Bud did my mom’s tattoo, which was her first, and kept her feeling comfortable and calm. Everyone’s tattoos came out amazing! Frontline makes it really easy to book an appointment and make your idea a reality. Would recommend over and over again!.

Holy Cow!!! Buds Work is Amazing!!! His Lines Are , Pricing is Very Reasonable. His Bedside Manner is Awesome! Already Planning My Trip Back to Get More Work Done.

INSIGHTS TATTOO STUDIOS, INC. REVIEWS

My friend and I traveled to CA for a girls’ trip. We walked into Insight looking for some sea life tattoos, and they took such great care of us! Curtis did an amazing job on my tattoo, and Damien did an amazing job on my friend’s tattoos. We are so happy!.

This shop was one of the coolest ones and so authentically classic. Everyone runs a rotary and hand stencils everything. The people were so nice and we ended up going back that night for a 3rd tattoo! Beyond happy.

I saw Curtis today at Insight tattoo. He was amazing and patient with me every step of the way. I went in with an idea and then added a little more to it and he was right there with me every step of the way. I’ve e got a few more in mind and totally will hit Curtis up again at insight tattoo!.
