Called @ 12:30 to see if I needed to make an appointment was told to come on down. @ 2:20 I arrived met Joey went over what I wanted, he drew it and 45 minutes I was out of there. The atmosphere was nice & friendly. They had 2 dogs in there when I told them that I was allergic to dog hair they quickly put them away. Joey was professional, comforting as well as funny. I will most def be back to get 3 more butterflies. Btw when your tatt is complete, they will put a hot rag on it so that it heals faster. The hot rag hurts for a couple of seconds then fades away. Kudos Ink Devine.
Review Source:The work that this shop does is second to none. They are true artists focusing on every aspect of perfection for each client. Their work is 100% custom which is an honor that few shops can claim. If you're looking for a tattoo based on price, go to Venice Beach. If you want a work of art from a master craftsman that will last forever, this is the place.
Review Source:Got my very first tattoo here by Todd Hooper. I called him to bump up my appointment a day early, and he actually took me in the day I called (9:30pm -- 30 minutes before closing). Being my first tattoo, I was nervous. The atmosphere of the shop helped me relax quite a bit. My tattoo turned out amazing, and I'll definitely be back here again!
Review Source:WOW!!! What an awesome experience! So, heres the deal... my girlfriend and I decided to just walk in and feel this place out-- no call, no prior visit, no referral. We knew what we wanted but felt that connecting with the right artist would avail the perfect outcome. We were right! Â The energy is incredible here, these people are true masters of their craft and are passionate about what they do. Tony and Todd are RAD! They have a signature healing ritual that they swear by at the end of each session in effort to cut the healing time in half (yahoo)... with that being said, if you are in the area--- get to INK DIVINE!
Review Source:I've been tattooed at quite a few different places locally. Ink Divine is by FAR the best shop around. The staff is so friendly and their work is outstanding. The shop is comfortable, decorated nicely and clean. Dene "The Machine" tattoos my husband and myself. He's creative, a fantastic artist, professional and the nicest guy ever. If you want a beautiful piece, at a reasonable price by a warm welcoming staff, Ink Divine is your place.
NOTE: don't let the HOT TOWEL scare you! It's the best part!!!!
Andrew is awesome!!! I went in on Friday to get an infinity tattoo on my wrist. I was sweating and a Lil nervous( hey it was my first). I managed through the pain and 40 minutes later I stared in awe at the wonderful work created by this mans hand! Love it does not describe how I feel towards my tattoo. Andrew was great at everything, from listening to my idea and giving me something wayyyy better, to booking the apt, to keeping me calm throughout. It's still to early for me to say ill get another one BUT should I choose too, well Drew will be my go too.
On a side note, the guys in here are all great, they actually talk! And the place is not all creepy like some other places I have been too. Out of the other 4 shops I went into in Pedro when I walked into this one I knew it was it.
Great tattoo shop. Â First of all, a tattoo shop vibe is very important...that being said, this shop is so comfortable and has the best vibe. Â The guys are all great, friendly and you feel very welcome there. Â I met a couple visiting from Arizona on vacation while I was there, they made the drive from Newport Beach based on Yelp reviews and were very happy. Â I had a very close friend die of cancer last year, I knew exactly where to go and exactly who would tattoo my memorial piece after spending some time there. Â Tony the owner is not only an amazing artist but really takes the time to make sure your piece of art is going to be the best it can be for you. Â Light hand, great lines, sweet guy and I couldn't be happier with my memorial tattoo for my dear friend.
Review Source:This place is amazing and so pretty with its vintage charm, art work, gold ceilings, and vintage mirrows. I've gotten tattooed by both Damien and Andrew. Damien is absolutely the best black and grey artist. I'm surprised he's not famous yet. His style is very soft but the complete piece is dynamic. He's a perfectionist  and I truely don't mind! Andrew is amazing with color. Both my friend and I got a color piece with him and wow,  the colors complemented one another so well! He's ridiculously talented I'm surprised he doesn't charge more. He has a lot of his traditional style paintings on the wall and I wanted to buy all of them! Met the owner tony and he's such a nice guy! I definitely will be back! Worth the drive for sure :)
Review Source:I could not have been happier with my entire experience at Ink Divine Tattoo Co. Â I waited 10 years to get this particular tattoo and really asked around for recommendations so that I could find the perfect artist. Â Tony was recommended highly by a personal family friend as one of the best artists around. Â Even though Tony came so highly recommended I was still worried that my tattoo might not turn out exactly how I wanted. Â After waiting so long - as it came closer to the day to actually get it I was getting more and more worried. Â I called and asked Tony if I could come in the shop and meet with him just to go over everything before the actual appointment. Â Every time I called or had a concern he was so professional and completely put my mind at ease. Â I went in the shop the day before and after just talking for a few minutes I knew right away that not only did he get exactly what I wanted but he explained things to me about size and placement in regards to how it would look best on your body - that's something I never would have even thought of and other artists never explained! Â The tattoo came out better than I had envisioned and I get stopped by people from little children to the elderly on how beautiful my tattoo is and that they have never seen something so pretty and colorful!
Aside from the tattoo itself the shop was so different than any other I had been in.  From the décor to the music to the friendly staff - just the overall feel when you walk in the place is very comfortable and inviting.
Since I went in, both my mom (her first tattoo!) and my dad have had work done by Tony and they both felt the same way I did.
Thanks so much Tony for an amazing experience! Â I will be back.
I was recommended by a friend who has some beautiful art work done. I have been wanting to get one and was looking at different artist. I feel it's very important to find an artist who is professional, passionate at what they do, clean shop, and amazing art and detail in their work. I found that at Ink Divine! I found that with Tony!
Before I could make up my mind of what exactly I wanted done, a  personal, sad situation happened in my life..a death of a baby too soon. In remembrance of her, I went to Tony with a copy of tiny footprints and an idea. He showed me a beautiful sketch and I made my appointment.  My experience with Tony and his shop was perfect. He made me feel comfortable, he eased into the tattoo, he explained how I may feel due to the placement of the tattoo (mid upper back), and he was very gentle. I received a beautiful, meaningful tattoo that I am proud to show. Everyone who sees it admires the detail in the footprints. They are done perfect. Tony blew me away, with what he was given to work with..and without a doubt he nailed it!!!!  I knew I had picked a perfect tattoo artist...Tony gave me a beautiful remembrance of someone who is special to me, I have a closeness to her since this tattoo because of the exact detail and special touch Tony created.
I highly recommend this shop,I looked through Tony's book of previous work as well as the other tattoo artist in the shop, they are all really good.
oh yea...and the music in the shop - perfect!!!!!
I am pretty picky when it comes to getting a tattoo...I expect saturation of color and nice straight lines...and did I get that...yes I did! I selected one of the artist at Ink Divine - the totally tall dude, Andrew. Â He took the time to go over suggestions and ideas and together, I walked out, with a great tattoo. Â There are a lot of artist out there in the Tattoo world, but if you want a professional, clean and stand out tattoo, then I would recommend Andrew. Â His style is Traditional, but very open minded to anything and he good either way.
Review Source:Tony has tattooed me twice, now. And I am in love with both pieces! I've recommended him to several friends who love him too.
I purchased a gift certificate for my (non-tattooed) best friend for his birthday. He was scared shitless to get a tattoo but I assured him Tony is the best and he works quickly too. With a few grunts and moans of pain (pleasure) it was over. My bff couldn't be happier with his tattoo! Â
I love Tony! He is hilarious, which makes the hours pass by a bit faster and he is pretty easy on the eyes, too. ;-)
I LOVE Ink Divine for the following reasons:
1. All of their artists are so creative, talented and friendly. Doug is great and has done some AMAZING work for myself, family and friends. I even felt comfortable going in there by myself. Other shops sometimes have a creepy vibe about them... but I felt more like I was hanging out with old friends there.
2. Easy to schedule! Since they are open from noon to ten pm every day I can get in whenever I need to. Plus their location was easy to find, even for someone like me who always gets lost. I like that I can call, email or text Doug for an appointment directly so that if I have any questions I don't have to go through a middle man or wait days for a response.
3. Reasonable prices. You get what you pay for! I have gotten cheap work with cheap results in the past, but luckily Ink Divine came to the rescue!!! I am willing to spend a little extra to get A LOT more in return.
I can go on forever... but in a nutshell, they are awesome!
