I traveled from San Diego to San Francisco just to have Jen Lee do my tattoo because she is the BEST for the style I wanted. Â It was well worth the trip, my tattoo is amazing. Â Jen is crazy talented at fine line work, color and detailing...my tattoo is seriously gorgeous and people are amazed by it all the time. Â I am considering one more tattoo and I will only let her touch my skin from now on. Â Yes, the travel costs suck but when you are getting something permanent on your skin for life, this should not be a concern. Budget tattoos are a bad plan.
As far as the shop itself...I was thrilled with the private rooms, WAY less awkward than open area shops. Â And even more awesome was that I told my husband (prior to arrival) that I wished they would play some reggae while I got my tattoo and it was like a miracle of some sort bc when I walked in, they were playing the typical old school punk and by the time I was getting tattooed, reggae was playing, no joke. Â The tattoo gods heard me that day. Â :) Â
Thanks Jen and Tattoo City for my gorgeous tattoo and for randomly playing reggae during my 3 hour tattoo.
Kahlil is one of my favorite tattoo artists ever! He has done a full back tattoo for me and both my half sleeves. I am always getting complements on them and asked where I got them. Â All you have to do is look at his portfolio in store or online and you'll see his undeniable talent. I Â have meet and chatted with several of the staff including Ed and Doug , very nice down to earth guys. I cant recommend a place that is better than Tattoo city.
