Felt very unwelcoming! I walked in nobody spoke to me, the manager even looked me in my eyes and said nothing. Someone sent the deal started pointing in my direction and stopped once we locked eyes. Then tired for charge 20 dollars per nipple ring....
I am a black women and the only black person in the establishment.

I went in as a walk-in on NYE and had the most amazing experience! I was in and out for an impromptu tattoo sesh. Sam was great, super nice and professional (even tho I had to have my stencil moved a few times due to my OCD)
I couldn't be happier with my new tattoo! I would definitely recommend this place, especially Sam

Haven’t gotten a tattoo here but saw Ian today for a piercing and had the best experience. He was super nice, knowledgeable and just an all around great guy. He suggested to me a way I could do my conch piercing that I had never thought of or knew you could even do which Im so excited to come back and get from him. I’m sure I’ll be back for even more piercings after that.

I walked in without an appointment for a belly piercing and Ian was amazing! Very clean and overall super fast process, I didn’t feel a thing and I’m very satisfied. Prices were good compared to other studios in L.A and there was a nice vibe to the place. Highly recommend!

I extremely appreciated the shop being VERY responsive in terms of communication and pricing via Yelp messages. It's nice to have the information written out rather than calling and almost feel rushed on the phone. Great job team!
I came to Mohave Creative for a piercing. Marlee was 5 Stars. She was super professional, personable, and willing to take ones concerns into mind before piercing. I'm sure I even asked her a few questions more than once and she never seemed to get annoyed by me. Not gonna lie, I def felt it. Funny thing though, Marlee even told me the pain would subside and

Big thank you to Gabriel and Bryan! Visited 11/6 after work and these two were awesome. Gabriel brought my boyfriend's tattoo inspiration to life. The photo was so low quality in comparison to his high quality work, left us so shook. Bryan did my tattoo, he was so kind and considerate when crafting my piece. He also has a gentle hand. If you like fine lines, he's your guy! (I didn't get a good photo of my tattoo before saniderm).

Mohave Creative is a great place to check out in LA. I am a tourist and I booked a month out,, they already had my line work ready for me when I got there. Brian is a great tattoo artists and the rest of the staff is super friendly. This tattoo shop is not sketchy and I would recommend them to anybody.

WOW just WOW! I am so used to different tattoo places never returning emails/calls for WEEKS! This place returned both email and call the same day with different options for design ideas and days/timing for appts. From the start, the customer service was AMAZING! I got to know the entire team with Tyler, Mirna, and Cody responding to questions, emails and texts before the appt time. Then I had the BEST master of design/creativity and INK= Milk Man! I can't stop looking at my tattoos and ready to schedule a few more with him and this EPIC place! Everything from beginning to end was over expectations

I came in to the shop a while back to get a large thigh piece. I worked with Gabriel and the whole process was so smooth from consultation, to design, to the actual tattoo. We had two sessions and I could not be happier with the end result. Money well spent!

Essentially a Production line, I’ve been here twice, twice mistakes made. Ignored when confronted. But the over pricing, mistakes on tattoo and neglect of customer service is what made me give it a low rating. The owner is cool though just chilling collecting money with no control over his artist work. Not once did he mention the errors they did nor apologized. Sad that a shop of that statue is out operating in this manner.

Jason was my tattoo artist he studied under Johnny ocean and he's amazing my pink butterfly he highlighted with purple and white and he colored it so amazingly and he's like a straight dude and he can do coloring better than anybody I've ever seen and also the saying that he put over it when it was done was called the governor and it really really works to keep the color like popping and all you have to do is leave it on for 24 hours take that one off and then put the second one on for five days and then boom you're done it's totally heal. Anyway I will definitely be getting

This review shouldn't come as a surprise to Mohave Creative. On 12/5/20 I paid a $300 deposit for a 6-8 hr session scheduled on 4/9/21. On 4/7/21, I called to confirm since I hadn't heard a thing in the 4 months only to be told they were going to call me soon to notify me of Jonny's inability to tattoo because of an injury. I'm understanding, I know perfectly well accidents happen. He didn't reschedule me then, but I got a call on 4/8 to reschedule for 4/28/21 at 1 pm. As a registered nurse, getting time off isn't always easy, but I made it happen.

Jonny and the whole team are amazing. The amount of effort they take to provide a clean and safe environment during a pandemic is incredible. Every artist displayed their skills the two nights I was there. From the owner, other artists, the piercer and even the apprentices. I was blown away at the care and talent! They had walk-in-ins and long term appointments for bigger projects! Can't say enough about my experience here. I know have 3 more appointments booked. Well worth the wait.

A beautiful blend of good energy, people, and service. I arrived scared + confused, and left feeling heard + appreciated. I look forward to returning in the future as they replied to my inquiry supafast, and maintained strict COVID-safe guidelines for all. They were most accommodative in making sure privacy was maintained during the removal of a more intimate piercing, and I can't thank them enough. Definitely on the pricier side, but an investment in yourself tends to have stellar ROI.
