Where to get a tattoo in Los Angeles?
April 7, 2019 12:55 PM

I want to get another tattoo when I visit LA in a few weeks. I know what I want, it's a line drawing. What artists in LA are good at line work? Or, what are some good tattoo shops to research?

A friend got her lovely tattoo done by Natalie Hall and had good things to say.

I can't say enough about Mekaya Martinez in Venice/MDR. (Instagram)

I went to her for her line work. I gave her a photo of a embroidery sampler my mom made as a girl and she created this wrapped vine. People actually stop me on the street to ask about it! (I'm hoping to continue the vine in the next couple of months.)

I'm not sure if you can get an appointment with only a few weeks but she might have a cancellation or an open time.
