This place was amazing such a great and friendly staff and the atmosphere was inviting. This was my first tattoo experience so I was incredibly nervous but I had the great opportunity to have Ben as my artist. Ben is the greatest! A true artist that took my design and brought it to life exactly how I had pictured it. What an amazing job I’m so incredibly happy with my experience with this team.
Just had my second tattoo done at Mission Ink today. Another great experience. The environment is mostly pretty chill, especially with the artists. It seems like the artists are happy there and have a good community vibe together which is part of why Ill be back. Happy, well taken care of artist=better quality tattoo. Its also in the Mission District which is a special place.
This place was great! This was my first tattoo and i’m so glad i chose them to get it. it was very clean, the artist that worked on my tattoo, Ariel, was super sweet and very helpful with recommendations and i love the work she did! Everyone there was also very welcoming and nice! will definitely be coming back again:)
I got an upper arm tattoo with Guillerme that took the majority of the day, around 6 hours. I got a customized piece based on a double exposure photo art print. The design he came up with was amazing and he was super professional and relaxed, making the time fly by. The pricing was very fair, especially for the high quality work. I’m thrilled with the end result! Would definitely recommend this place, great business.
Went In for a Halloween flash tattoo special and the staff was fantastic! Everyone was super nice and friendly, can’t wait to go back! Great experience from start to finish.
Started coming here a couple years ago for a fix up on a tattoo and have been going to G ever since . Highly recommend good dude and very clean work . I’ve gotten a lot of different style tattoos from him and they’ve all come out incredibly. I constantly get compliments on my tattoo and recommend G ever time!!
Mission Ink has personable and professional staff that are incredibly talented at what they do! Ive had the pleasure of being tattooed by Indy and pierced by Salomé and both experiences have been nothing short of delightful. Everyone there is amazing, and the place itself is rigorously, scrupulously clean while still having each station being personally decorated by its occupant. Hands down the best tattoo/piercing experiences Ive ever had, Ill absolutely be back.
My friend and I got love piercings from Salomé. She was incredibly nice and professional. We didn’t have an appointment but she found time in her busy day to pierce us. The atmosphere of the shop was also very cool and very comfortable, and I would definitely go back again!
Indy is the best! she’s so sweet and gives great advice about the tattoos, you can tell she puts a lot of care into the work she does. i’m definitely getting my next tat from her! the shop itself and all the other workers are super cool, highly recommend
This place not only has an amazing environment, but everyone there is so nice! I got my tattoo done by Ariel, and they are absolutely amazing and I am in love with the tattoo they created for me. I couldnt recommend Ariel and this place more, I hope to return sometime!
It’s an awesome and relaxing place the person van who did my tattoo did a fantastic job he was really concerned that the person he was tattooing didn’t feel pain offered to stop at any time if I needed to so polite and friendly and very businesslike fantastic service everyone there was very happy and pleasant it’s a wonderful place to go get a tattoo it so you can go wrong
I got my conch pierced by Salome and honestly the experience was so much better than I expected. Salome was super chill, I was pretty nervous so she made me feel really comfortable. She was really knowledgeable about like aftercare and healing periods of course. Most importantly, it looks amazing!! Oh and Covid protocol was 💯👍🏼 Highly recommend, thank you! 💯
Jesus had the softest hands, didnt feel a thing. Very polite and would recommend to anyone😁
My sister and I got piercings with Salomé. She was amazing and so incredibly accommodating. The place is clean and professional.
I loved my tattoo from Mission Tattoo and Indy was a great artist and so kind and patient. Will definitely return for another tattoo!
Amazing!! The piercer was extremely booked and was able to accommodate me as the birthday girl!! She called her customer that was running behind and took great care of me! I was so nervous but she made me feel comfortable. Thank u! I will return!!
I really like the environment and treat here. I am absolutely in love with my tattoos Indy made for me💖. I absolutely recommend this place to get a tattoo or piercing.
Not only was everyone in the shop welcoming, it was fun too! Good music, clean environment, and Ariel did an AMAZING job on my tattoo!
I went with 2 of my closest friends and to do a last memory since one is moving here to SF and we are from Santa Ana. We decided to get matching helix ear piercing and the service was PERFECT and memorable. Salome explained everything to us and had such an amazing vibe. I totally recommend this place. In love with my piercing ♥️🥺🌉
Salome is amazing, Got my nose repierced and it was not at all painful, highly recommended, Book your appointments with her👌
I had a great experience here! The studio was clean and staff was incredible. The prices are reasonable and very much worth it for the quality of work. Shout-out to G for giving me an amazing tattoo. I am looking forward to returning for more tattoos.
Got a tattoo with Indy and ohhhh my god Im so happy about it! Thank you so much for your work and amazing talent. Definitely getting my next one soon!
Guilherme did an incredible job on my tattoo! Quality was just fantastic. Would totally recommend and will definitely come back.
Indy was very nice and made me feel comfortable I am going back to her for sure 😌 I LOVE MY TATTOS so worth it and she welcomed me for a WALK IN that was so dope😝
I got a walkin tattoo and they were able to do it. Super friendly and clean. Bankcy (Ben) did wonderful work and is a super cool person.
Love this place! The staff was awesome. I’m super grateful to my piercer, Salomé. She made the experience super fast/easy and her hands were steady. Overall, a really sweet person. Would definitely get pierced here again!
The best vibes and everyone there was so nice, my tattoo turned out great
Salome was very friendly and informative. She made me feel comfortable throughout the process of my nipple piercings. She was also very professional and made sure everything was sterile.
I had Indy do my first tattoo and they were really friendly and professional!
Indy is amazing. She turned my concept into a beautiful tattoo. She is a professional. Mission Ink and Indy was recommended to me, I also recommend Mission Ink for a tattoo and highly suggest to ask for Indy.
This place is awesome! Please go book yr appt.with Salome!
I went in to get two piercings on my ear and replace some jewelry. Christian did my piercing and he was awesome. I am pretty squirmy and he was really helpful in making me feel comfortable. The piercing was done before I knew it! I LOVE my new jewelry and overall am very happy with my experience.
Very pleasant and accommodating, I was a walk in and took me in, very quick and easy piercing..love it..
Had a great first tattoo experience with Ben!
I got my septum piercing done and Salomé was very sweet and helpful on helping me choose what size jewelry would best fit my nose. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely come back when I’m in SF again🤗
Ernie is super dope! She was light handed, patient and exceeded my expectations by far!
Guilherme went above and beyond want I wanted. Beyond satisfied and happy with the work. Made me feel at easy and welcomed. Definitely coming back and will recommend to friends and family
Indy was so talented and nice! Will definitely be coming back for more
Been seeing Bruno off and on for the last 6 years for a sleeve. Amazing artist. Great guy to talk to. Shop is cool. Happy to have found him.
I was pierced (for a second time) by Salomé; shes excellent at what she does ! very easy and smooth processupdate : got a third piercing, this time on my left nostril. loving it
Today I went in for my first piercings ever! Everything about my experience was a positive one from the minute I walked in till the moment my ears were done and we were leaving. I highly recommend Salome wether it be your first peircing or looking for a new piercer - she’s your gall!
I had wonderful experience at Mission Tattoo and Piercing. The staff was kind and welcoming, the space was beautiful, eclectic, and incredibly comfortable, and Indy took my idea and turned it into a lovely work of art.
Friendly, skillful and good prices.
They were able to squeeze me in quickly and I had Indy! She was so sweet and did a great job on my pieces. The pricing is super fair, I definitely recommend you check them out!
Great work at reasonable prices.
I’ve been wanting a rook & belly piercing for so long and Salomé did her thing! She is amazing, if you are thinking of getting pierced, go to her! She made me feel so comfortable & at ease. So fun to talk to as well. It’s very clean & they have hand sanitizer on deck.
Love my tattoo and Indy was super chill and nice. Already planning my next one. Thank you Indy!
Great experience. I had Indy for a simple latin quote. Great experience all around.
I like there customer service really nice an respectful
The people who answer the phone said I could take in my own jewelry for piercing but did not mention it takes an extra day for them to sanitize, which is fine, but they wasted my time and money going to the appointment because of that.
The piercer was really nice! Highly recommended!!!
I had a great experience yesterday and Indy did a fabulous job with my tattoo. I LOVE IT!!!! Also, I want to say thank you for getting back to me so promptly and in scheduling my appointment.
Amanda was amazing! She did a beautiful job on my tattoo. She worked with me ahead of time and subtly updated the design I wanted to make it a better tattoo, while maintaining fidelity to the original artwork. She made me feel comfortable and continually checked in with me to see if I needed a break while we were working (it was an inner bicep tattoo; fingers tend to get tingly after a while).And Mission Ink is a great studio! Awesomely decorated, clean and comfortable place. All of the staff I saw and interacted with were friendly and helpful. 10/10 would get inked here again 🤘
I happened to stop by and they had time for some piercings! Super cool people working there and I loved the art work vibe. Most important it was safe, (temperature checks, sanitizing, spaced out, ventilated) and the work was great! I’ll probably be back for more this week.
I went there to get a piercing. The customer service was fabulous. They walked me through the entire process. Very professional staff. Very clean place. I highly recommend this place.
I got my nipples pierced by Christian. He made me feel so comfortable instantly! The shop was very clean and he was very professional. It wasn’t as painful as I thought it would be. I highly recommend this shop and if you know what’s good for you ask for Christian! His energy is amazing and will put you at ease 😊
Amazing place, artists and atmosphere! Go see Indy!
I love indy! she’s so cool and nice! her work is wonderful! :)
The shop is great with covid precautions and a really cool space.Salomé did an amazing job with my piercings. Super helpful and kind! They had great suggestions for jewelry and ideas for future piercings. Highly recommend.
Great experience, Indy did a great job on my boyfriends tattoo.
We came in from out of town so the initial planning happened over the phone. The staff was phenomenal with getting us an appointment and a quote.The second we walked in we were warmly greeted and had a wonderful conversation with the staff as we waited for our appointment.Amanda was our artist. She is amazingly talented & I am so glad we got the chance to work with her. Definitely visiting her creative mind again next time we are in the San Francisco Area! I wish we could find someone like her near home!
I scheduled an appointment the day of and they took me in. The front desk didn’t seem to be interested in working and had a little attitude. My artist was Guilherme he was very welcoming and gave me the right tricks and tips for my first tattoo. I would 10/10 recommend the shop and forever come back for more tattoos.
Really friendly professional staff. Everything very clean and sterile. Got a piercing there that came out great and is healing better than any piercing I got at a kiosk at the mall. Would definitely recommend.
Very professional folks. They ensured to take all precautions during the pandemic. G is really talented. Strongly recommended!
Awesome service. Talked me through getting my nose piercing back in since they cant do that work with COViD. Very knowledgeable and clear instructions! Also got new jewelry Im really happy with.
I had a great experience here.I got a cover up tattoo from G and despite changing the original idea to something different twice, G was patient,professional,easy to talk with,made the entire experience comfortable and did an amazing work on it and my tattoo looks brand new,hard to tell it’s a cover up!I’d definitively come back for more tattoos!
G was super professional and nice, plus his art is amazing. I definitely recommend going here and getting a tattoo done.
Brooke is wonderful for piercings.
Excellent customer service. They’re very clean and careful during Covid. I was eager to replace my cartilage piercings and I’m not disappointed. I was assisted with the best size and fit, and they look beautiful.
Guilherme was so awesome to work with and has a personality that immediately puts you at ease. My design was pretty simple but G was great about checking in with me about it. Awesome little shop!
Today was my first tattoo. I was nervous and scared to go in, but the tattoo artist Indy was very calming and through her words calmed me down with her stories about when she got her first tattoo. I came in the tattoo shop thinking that the process getting my first tattoo was going to be painful, but it wasn’t. I barely felt any pain. I believe that is because I have a high pain tolerance, but everyone is different. The tattoo came out AMAZING and I would definitely recommend Mission Ink Tattoo & Piercing and Indy to an individual who is considering getting a tattoo. Well done!
Indy was great. Super accommodating and knowledgeable.
Amanda did an amazing job with my first tattoo! I am still in the healing process as I just recently added this lovely flower lady to my life (and my ribcage), but I love her so much already! Considering it was my first tattoo experience, I was fairly nervous about everything, from reaching out and to, later, the actual process (I heard plenty of stories of pain), but Amanda was compassionate, kind, and warm, which relieved any anxieties. I am so happy I found Amanda and definitely plan on reaching back out to her at Mission Ink when Im ready for the next! All of the staff I encountered were welcoming and inviting. The location was beautiful, comfy, and clean. I know there are some reviews with concerns about the surrounding area, but even though I, myself, am usually and understandably weary of walking around cities alone, I had no problem parking in the nearby garage and walking to Mission Ink with a sense of safety on my own (for anyone with any similar or related concerns).All-in-all, what a great experience, truly deserving of all 5 stars and an honest review (I usually dont review places, generally speaking). Thanks, again, Amanda!
I got a cover up tattoo from G. He made the whole experience comfortable and he is very professional. I loved his work so much I made a second appointment for a couple other tattoos I wanted. Def recommend!
Bruno is amazing. I’ll definitely go back.
Christian saved my new piercing after I traveled 3000 miles. I lost my ball to my tragus piercing and it started closing up! 5 minutes..what an impression.
Christian was great !!!! Super nice and friendly- comforted me when I shed a tear !! Overall great business !
Hey all, just wanna say thank you to my tattoo artist today Guilherme he was so kind and fast, i loved his artwork and i will be back soon . Really clean and concentrated work . Professional 100%!
I never leave reviews online but felt like G deserved that I do. G was awesome throughout the whole experience. Super friendly dude. I had a complete design change the day of my appointment, and he did not complain at all. We sat down and looked at designs online together, he drew it up and 20 minutes later got to work. Ended up with the coolest angel tattoo on my back. Couldn’t be happier with it. Would highly recommend G. And his price really can’t be beat.
First time getting my earlobes pierced here. It was a great experience having to work with Christian for the day. Hes well informed about the piercing procedure and makes sure to keep you relaxed as your ears get pierced. Great place for first timers and at an affordable cost!
Replaced my nostril and septum jewelry here. I liked their choices for jewelry. Christian was super helpful when it came to decision-making, and a good listener when adjusting my piercings. Planning to get my other nostril pierced here once they reopen.
First time getting ears pierced! Everyone was really nice and the experience was cool. There were no complications and it was really quick because there was no line. Its walk ins only and cash only so remember to bring cash. Pretty cheap compared to other places. People there were really professional and it I could definitely tell they knew what they were doing.
These guys are awesome! My friends and I came in as walk-ins for 3 tattoos and 1 piercing and Guilherme mocked up three awesome tattoos based on our descriptions and got us all in in about three hours! Christian pierced my friends conch and we agreed that he was the friendliest, most professional piercer wed been to.Would definitely recommend, thinking of going back for more extensive work!
Got two black minimalist tattoos (J initial and rose) by Guilherme and was very impressed. He’s a really nice guy, professional, makes you feel comfortable and overall a great artist. Pricing is also fair, studio is clean and very relaxing atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back!
The artist was very sweet and I loved how my tattoo came out!!
My husband and I saw Amanda. It was his first tattoo and my second by her. She is so great! She’ll take your idea and improve upon it with her ideas to get you a great tattoo. Her lines and shading are both incredible, I have no complaints. And she always makes sure you’re comfortable and are doing okay. I can’t recommend her enough. I don’t have experience with anyone else in the shop but they were all friendly.
Mission Ink is my absolute favorite. G is the best and will always bring your vision to life!
Guilherme (G) is the man... he did a great job on my piece. He’s a really cool dude, took the time to explain everything and was patient beforehand to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. Thank you boss, I’ll see you again soon
Guilherme did my tattoo and I absolutely love it! Its exactly what I wanted. The people there are extremely friendly and fun. The place has an amazing atmosphere with great artists! Would definitely recommend it
Suwen is very friendly and experience artist. Provide good advise as is my first time and beautifully done. Really love her work and will definitely go back for my next one soon.
First time coming to this tattoo shop. I chose Guilherme as my tattoo artist and he is so friendly and listens to what you want. Hes very gentle and makes you feel at ease for those like me who gets nervous and anxious about the pain. Ill definitely be coming back here more tattoos!
