could've been better

i went in for a pretty decent sized job and sat with adam who was a pretty cool dude. but his lack of experience definitely came through PERMANENTLY on my shoulder. not only was my job interrupted on multiple occasions to talk with other potential clients, but i have some pretty bad scar tissue on my piece which i can't even touch up yet, due to his heavy hand.
i hate writing a review like this because he was a really cool guy and i was happy with the immediate results, but after a few months i still cant get over the scar tissue in many places which i want to get touched up but can't yet until it heals properly.
maybe in a few more years his hand will lighten up. LET THE NEEDLE DO THE WORK, BRO!
- Pros: good natured, likable artists
- Cons: some need a few more years under their belt

I went to Art and Soul for my first tattoo. I chose one with great detail. She went out and bought the DVD so she could check the characters on her laptop to make my tattoo perfect detail! I will return!!

If your ever in Los Angeles, and your searching for a place where they deliver best service, and great tattoos, come to Art & Soul. Their are many talented artists who have a lot to bring to the table, especially Danny Chan. I had recently lost my grandfather who was very dear to me, and I wanted a tattoo artist who can capture the essence of what I wanted. Just by the outline alone, I was floored and astound by what I saw, it was waay more than what i expected. I literally cried when i came home and looked at it. He is truly an amazing artist. He's warm, funny, and easy to get along with, right off the bat! I owe a lot to him because he changed my life, literally, with his artisitc vision he brings. I now carry a piece of artwork from him for the rest of my life, and I am very proud of that.
- Pros: Great People, Great Service, Very Professional
- Cons: none

I just got my 1st. "tat" from Art & Soul. I am a 44 year old male and have wanted at tattoo for over 20 years. I saw at tattoo on someone and it really looked good. When I asked them where they got it from they recomended A & S. I'm not artistic but, had an idea of what I wanted for my tattoo. The tattoo atrist Scott drew me a black and white sketch on paper...I said "cool go for it"! I also, wanted it colored with green, red & yellow. I didn't even look at it untill it was done... It has six colors! Awsome!!! I will get another one form!

Amazing Artists!!!

Art and Soul Tattoo is the best Tattoo shop around!! I've gotten 3 tats from Joby, including a full chest piece, and his work is amazing!! I get so many compliments on his work and will only go back to Joby for my future tats! Although I've seen Danny, Erika, and some of their other artists at work too and would probably let them do work on me too if for some reason Joby wasn't available. These artists really know how to lay down some serious ink!!!! You're seriously selling yourself short if you don't check these guys out for your next tat!!
- Pros: Great artists, nice clean shop, friendly
- Cons: you should probably schedule your appt in advance although they do take walk ins, whenver I'm there it seems like they're too busy to fit in a walk-in
Best Tattoo I Have

I went to Art & Soul for a tattoo of the Meejay Dr. Gonzo illustration by Ralph Steadman (Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas). Danny Chan did it and it's the best tattoo I've got, and probably will ever get. It's perfect down to the last detail, and exactly like the actual illustration. Even the signature (R.ST.) is exact. The price was insanely good and Danny kept me more than entertained. Go here. Trust me. I've dealt with alot of shops and artists. This one wins. GO HERE.
Matter of fact, if you check out Danny's online portfolio at the shop's website, you can find my arm in there.
- Pros: Everything.
- Cons: I experienced none.
Simply put: amazing work by great artists

I spent years waiting to find the right artist to do my first tattoo, and when I saw Erika's work, it was easy to know my search was over. She took the idea in my head and made it a reality. Not that I was asking for the most complicated image or anything, but I had a specific style and feel that i was going for. From our consultation, she captured all the nuances of what i was looking for... and did it freehand! yes, that took trust, but what can i say... she nailed it! I get compliments all the time on my ink. she and her crew are awesome! I would highly recommend this place to anyone.
The best Tattoo place I have ever been in

Art and Soul Tattoo Co. is one of the finest shops in the country. I wish I lived closer so I could easily get more work done by them. Erika and crew are top notch artists and some of the most professional people I have come in contact with. I was absolutely blown away by their willingness to work with my schedule as the artist who did my work was no longer with them and I was in town from Michigan for only a couple of days. I highly recomend them and will be scheduling an appt. for some new ink the next time I am in L.A.
They brought my idea into reality with style and heart

Okay first of all I?m a very picky person when it comes to tattoos, because you never know what is out there. Besides it?s on your body for LIFE! So when my grand father past away about 2 years ago December, I wanted to get a tattoo that would remind me of him and honor him. So I came up with an idea that I wanted but I really couldn't describe it very well, considering my art talent is less than a special person on a short bus. Any ways, a couple of good friends are pretty heavenly inked up so I asked them for ideas on great artists and great tattoo artists. they both recommended Art & Soul, so one day I met them at Art & soul tattoo and watch Erica perform magic on there backs. As I was there I wanted to watch and observe each artist and watch what type of safety and health practices they use. I was very impressed on how clean and health cautious they were. So then I was talking to Erica and my design and she referred me to her Boy friend Adam Kliss. He came in about an hour after I was there and I sat and talked to him for at least a good half hour. It was like talking to an old drinking buddy I insatiately felt respected and welcomed. so needless to say I gave him a shot at drawing up my ideas, he presented me with about 5 different variations of my idea on paper and explained each one, and what his inspiration was for doing them differently. I choose one and we corrected a little color change and after that he started to work on my arm. Now I understand maybe waiting 1 month was tough but it was worth it. I rather somebody take there time to put there heart into a piece then someone that just rushes it, and doesn't care. Adam showed me that he cared about each and every piece he puts on somebody.
I highly recommend Art and Soul Tattoo Co. There worth the drive them time and the money. Not only are you getting a great piece of art, your getting some great friends!
- Pros: Great people, great artist very healt and safe cautiouas. They take the time to respect the client
- Cons: There far away from my home ;-( but i make the drive. There Worth it.
ART & SOUL IS L.A.'S BEST TATTOO SHOP!

I discovered Art & Soul about 10 years ago by chance as I was driving down Robertson Blvd. one day. When I went in for a consult, it was Erika Stanley who greeted me. She was very easy going and professional in discussing my tattoo design with me. I liked the fact that she was a true artist and appreciated the art of tattooing vs. some of these other artists in town who are just looking to make a quick buck. You get what you pay for and I'm happy to say that Erika gave me my first tattoo and I've been loyal to her ever since. Her shop is clean, the staff is extremely cool, and they do exceptional work. Other than Erika, the only other artist I've trusted and had the honor to tattoo me is Manu, the best tribal tattoo artist in the world, who I met as a guest artist at Art & Soul. I feel fortunate to have found this awesome group of artists, and highly recommend them to everyone I know.
perfection! highly gifted artists, comfortable, non-pretentions atmosphere.

this is the only place i would trust for tattoos. Its clean and orderly. they are strict about not tattooing minors and that tells me that they have integrity that will carry into their attention to hygene. Adam Kilss has done most of my work. People stop me on the street to ask who on earth did this amazing work. adam uses beautiful colors and is just all around a gifted artist. i show him a photo and the day of my appt he is ready with exactly what i want, yet willing to change if im hesitant, yet I never have had to change a thing. he listens to me and i can tell he pays attention to "who i am" because he comes up with art i love. danny chan gave me my first tattoo and he was great. the owner, erika stanley is great and i look forward to having some of her sought-after work, too. the other artists are highly talented and friendly.
- Pros: talented, down-to-earth artists, clean shop and strict attention safety
- Cons: none
