Los Angeles is one of the premier places in the world to get tattooed, offering iconic shops known for jailhouse-style California tattoos as well as those offering realistic Japanese or American traditional styles - not forgetting celebrity spots that leave lasting marks!

Doctor Woo's studio (aka Brian Woo) is widely-renowned as one of the premier tattoo parlors. Renowned for his impressively realistic tattoos, clients include Emilia Clarke, Zoe Kravitz, Blake Griffin, Drake, and Hailey Bieber among many others.

Catahoula Tattoo is also worth a visit; this hybrid of a tattoo parlor and art gallery strives to ensure every client leaves happy with their tattoo. The shop's soft eclectic vibe and lack of flash on its walls speak volumes about its commitment to clients' visions and care for each of its visitors.

Owned by an experienced husband-and-wife team with years of experience and an incredible roster of tattoo artists capable of performing any style tattoo imaginable; additionally they specialize in body piercing as well as provide a range of body jewelry options for sale.
