Black Rose Tattoo Parlo

*WARNING* If you want a great experience getting a tattoo this is NOT the place for you. I love art and especially the art of tattooing but the problem is there are zero artists in this shop! I can’t believe that they have a spot on the Venice Boardwalk. They are simply a disgrace to tattoo artists everywhere!

I love my little tattoo :) I have quite a few tattoos and have been to a lot of shops in the inland empire area only. I stopped in here as a walk in and wanted a small memorial piece for my dog ! They were so nice !! Very professional! Good prices. I am always impressed with customer service ! This shop was great !! I live about an hour away but I would go back for sure.

this place is awful. absolutely awful. please don’t ever go here, the tattoo artists are the creepiest people ever, especially the owner, Carlos, and paco. let me just tell you my story.
so me and a couple friends went to Venice for the day because it was my bestfriends 18^th birthday. we were looking to get tattoos, but black rose was too over priced, so they offered us to come back at 9, and they’d do everything for free. we’re young, we don’t know better. we came back, and they were all very high and drunk, they kept offering and pouring us shots, keep in mind that we are 18. they pierced my friends nipples, and she passed out, they didn’t do much to help her, they were very rude to her and kept saying she was being over dramatic and just wants attention, first off, if someone is passing out, I don’t think it’s because she’s looking for attention, they didn’t even pierce the nipple, it was half nipple half actual boob. they are idiots here, don’t ever go, go to Venice beach tattoo! they’re amazing!

so it wasn’t our first time being in the shop but it was our first time getting something done my sister and I decided on getting our Septum and the piercer was the sweetest, very patient and educated on her work my little sister went first and it was like cake and then i did and the same she knew what she was doing 150% of the time and we love them. The others were sweet too we are most definitely coming back
