I have been going to Dan since he was in San Jo and now have five pieces that he's done for me. Â I plan on going back when I come up with more ideas. Â Dan does great work and you can count on him to get it done right. Â This isn't some half-ass street shop that popped up in the trendy tat-boom ala Miami/LA Ink...Dan has been in the business for a long time. Â He knows the industry and I would consider him an expert at his trade...analagous to a swordsmith crafting the perfect blade.
Rest assured that everything from cleanliness/sterility to intricate artwork will be handled professionally. Â Dan is easy to get along with and actually listens to a customer's requests instead of talking over them and swaying the customer towards something that he/she may not want...something that other shops have a tendency to do. Â This is a no-BS shop and SR is lucky to have it within it's city limits. Â Know that if you go to Name & Blood, you will end up with a quality piece of art that you can be proud to display.
Popped my head into this shop and really liked it. Nice and clean and packed with Dans art on the walls. Dan seemed nice. He answered all my questions and showed me his portfolio. Â This by far wasn't my first tattoo but I got to admit it was the least painful. I really like how it came out. He took my idea and and really ran with it. Prices were good for the amount of work and detail he put in. Lookin forward to the next one. If your lookin for quality work I highly sugest checkin this shop out.
