5 stars is perfect  for InkedEnvy, one of my treasures of California.
I went into InkedEnvy on an impulse tattoo craving because of there rating on yelp. I wasn't disappointed, very friendly. They are basically a family's: some do live together) and they treat you just the same.
With my tattoo Nicole and I clicked, we found a template I liked and worked with it. After some input by both of us and the staff, I was happy. Needless ti say, We were both into the tattoo. Nicole worked after hours with me and even sacrificed her only day of the work with her boyfriend. I really appreciate the time and effort she put into it.
Also pricing was great but greatness isn't cheap.
Thanks Nicole and the inkedEnvy staff,

Karl is the $hit. Â Friend of mine saw some work I got done years ago and we got the talking about how horrible it looks. Â He recommended Karl and showed me some of his work. Â I went in to see if they could fix the damage and see what the cost would be. Â Holy hell, they did a fantastic job, came out way better than I had hoped. Â
They basically were able to make it look the way I hoped it would, the first time I got it done 10 years ago.
I highly recommend Carl and his staff!! I was visiting family who lives in Oakdale and decided to get a tattoo on my forearm. This area is consider to be the "show piece" area mainly because everyone will see it. So, I was very selective on the artist/shop who would do my show  piece. I wanted a high quality tattoo artist to showcase this tattoo. I live in Vegas and have access to some of the world's best artist, but decided to use Carl, mainly because of his actual work peices . I have many other tattoo's done by some of the best artist around, but Carl's tattoo not only looks the best, but healed the best aswell. This shop is clean, appears drug free and the artist are into the art of tattoo, without the overpricing you see at most quality shops. If you are thinking of getting a professional tattoo in this town, believe me, speak to this shop first.
PS: My tattoo is the Virgin Mary seen on this website.....Thanks Manny
