Vinh was incredible. I would recommend him to anyone - keen attention to detail had a light hand and worked super quickly. Vinh also communicated with me via email so after the initial consultation I was able to continue to tweak and evolve the sketch until the day I actually got tattooed. He was incredibly accommodating and responsive.

When looking around, I saw this place pop up in my recommendations for tattoo studios in the Bay Area. I had a really good experience, the artists were chilled out and friendly, and there was always positive vibes in there. Jess Koala was the artist who did my tattoo and she's very friendly and great to talk to, her style is weird but wonderful and she made my experience that much better. To conclude, I would totally recommend Black & Blue if you're in the SF Bay Area anytime soon.

Amazing experience. Ross Jones is an excellent artist. Great outcome. Efficient professional work. It was my first time and I couldn’t be happier with the result! Would recommend to anyone! The shop is in a nice location and played great music the whole time.

Great atmosphere. I was tattooed by guest artist, Hans from Norway. He was amazing. He took his time and gave me the quality I was seeking. Most importantly, they're all on the ball and respectful.
