I've been tattooing in the beautiful Santa Cruz mountains since 1992. It is a private shop where you will receive a custom tattoo with personalized service. Feel free to bring along any artwork or photos which represent your personal style. I have many art books to browse through and will be happy to draw up any tattoo ideas which will help you to positively express yourself.
I can rework old tattoo designs, do cover-ups of scars or misfit tattoos, or create something new. Dare to be colorful! Express yourself in ink! Tenacious Eye is the first licensed tattoo shop in Santa Cruz county. I work closely with the health department to ensure that your tattoo is done in the safest most professional way.

Services
These are usually bold geometric designs often associated with a specific culture or tradition, although I do enjoy doing modern colorful style tribal pieces. In accordance with federal, CA state and local laws, Tenacious Eye Tattoing may reject at its sole discretion unaccompanied minors (ID required) and customers under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance.
Tenacious Eye Tattooing follows the strict guidelines of the Santa Cruz County Environmental Health Department. This is my autoclave for the sterilization of equipment, and it is tested and certified regularly. Once your tattoo is finished and you have left the studio, it's up to you to take good care of your new tattoo.

I have seen at least 7 people with tat's from Sara Lee and to be frank she has no talent!!! She can copy and paste whatever onto your body, but her work is S***!!!I think she should give it up. She will personally not tattoo a miner, but let that miner call her friend an asian guy called Dr. Slick and he will do just as bad as a job for half the price. If you are a new artist starting out we can be aware of that, but going to someone who is charging $200.00 an hour to mess up your body is B S !!!!
know that you know this and if you still go to Sara lee for a tattoo, well that&apos

I chose to get my tattoo here because I was referred by another client of hers with a really gorgeous tattoo, so I had seen a good example of her work. I found her (Sara? It's been several years so I don't recall her name) to be very friendly and easy to work with. She talked with me about what I wanted, then came up with a design that was close, and we iterated on it until it was exactly what I was hoping for.
But just as with the other review, the actual tattoo is NOT well done. The lines are shaky and have inconsistent widths. The design was a Celtic knot work pattern, and at the

I figure that the scant information I have here is better than nothing, so...
I am about to check this woman out, because my husband used to drive by her studio, which is housed in a personal residence. He stopped one day, intrigued by the nice sign on the street.
He talked to her for quite some time, and she was very nice, easy to talk with, and gave my husband a few "go-think-it-over" drawings and suggestions.
He was extremely impressed with her professionalism and her artwork, not to mention the bonus her nice personality. Hope she's around tomorrow!
