Dermagraphink

I was misinformed that Heather was no longer tattooing, that is not correct. Heather just did a ½ sleeve on me!!! She still is putting out some AWESOME tattoos, working at Electric Pen in North Hollywood. I am glad I found her again!

Teddy Bear is amazing. He helped fix a piercing another piercer did in another establishment. He was thorough, clean and very informative.

It’s hard to know where to start with this review as there are so many positive things to write about Justin, and all the great people who work out of this studio. The second you walk through the door it is clear you are in a safe and friendly environment. Good energy is literally pouring out of the place.
Long story short I went in to Dermographink with a pretty shitty cover up of a tribal design. I had been demotivated and upset for months trying to work out what to do. Within minutes Justin had design ideas in front of me. Within hours he had started A FULL COVER UP of my shit cover up. I have to be honest — I never in my wildest dreams thought I could end up with the beautiful piece of art that is still under construction on my arm. I will post pictures when it’s completed. Justin reassured me when I had initial doubts –due to bad experiences with other ‘tattoo artists’ — that he could give me something I’d be proud of, and I’m so happy to say he was right.
CAN NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE ENOUGH — it is wonderful.
They also do piercings, and the studio is full of eclectic artwork and creative spaces. All his work is displayed in the reception are — digitally — I am so so impressed and will not go anywhere else.

Husband and I came in for our first tattoo! We were lucky to have Steven as our artist. He is a very talented artist! Very professional and super chill. He is OCD and a perfectionist which are 2 qualities I want in an artist! Definitely recommend this shop and Steven! We know where we’re coming for our next Tattoos

Justin and Heather are two of the finest artists I would trust and have mark my skin for eternity.
I have known Justin for a very long time and have been nothing but pleased with all the pieces he has done for me. Heather is a true talent as well, and trust that honestly anyone working at their shop has been approved by them, are of the highest caliber of talent, and will work with the customer to make sure their ideas and work are nothing short of amazing. I travel great distances and wait long periods of time just to see them, catch up, and get fresh ink.
I can honestly say that they are the best I have had the pleasure to sit for, and to consider and call them friends.
If you are in the Los Angeles area, and are considering a tattoo, please take the time to look them up, get in touch with them, go visit them, and let them bring your ideas to reality.
You will not regret it…

**Five stars for high quality work **
My review is for Steven O’connor, I came in for a cover up tattoo along with new ones. I had no idea what I wanted as a cover up and Steven worked with me patiently from start to finish.
He made me feel comfortable during the entire time, talking and laughing. He is so informative in the tattoo art. He pays close attention to detail and this was so important to me as I can be so picky! He really cares about his clients time and comfort level. I’ve gotten 3 tattoos from Steven and we’re working on 1 more cover up for my arm. I trust him with his ideas and I know he always puts my perspective as priority. Dermagraph Ink is a great company to do business with. They are all so nice and you go in feeling right at home.
I would recommend them to anyone considering getting a forever art on your body!

Great place to get work done. Steve took care of me and is already working on my next tattoo. Thanks guys, I would highly recommend this place to my friends and fellow Unilocalers

I’ve been to this place twice now, and it’s become my exclusive LA shop. The ambiance is chill and the artists are friendly, welcoming and quick to create a stencil out of your imagination. I’ve only had work done by Steve — with whom I highly recommend — but I’ve seen work by Justin & Heather and it’s all killer. From shop entry to the drive home, it’s a pretty sweet experience and one I recommend to anyone looking for a top-​tier tattoo.

Steve is my current tattoo artist here. He’s awesome and I love his work. He always does exactly what I want and is very good with placement. He is currently working on the bottom portion of my sleeve so more pics to come… Check them out!!!

I came here to get my first tattoo and was feeling a little nervous. As soon as I came in, Steven was super friendly and immediately made me feel at ease.
Even though it was a really small simple tattoo, Steven took the time with me to make sure the placement and size was perfect. The vibe of the shop is very cool and artsy– I will definitely be coming back for more tattoos in the future :)

I was only in the LA area for a few days and wanted to get a tattoo. I was very impressed by the place and my artist, Steven. He sat down with me and helped me decide the size and exact placement of my tattoo. He was very precise and seemed like he actually cared about how the piece would look. He even asked the other two artists that were there to come look at the stencil placement and give their opinion. They were very clean and changed gloves anytime he touched something that wasn’t clean. I would actually travel back here to get another work done.

Extremely disappointed! My husband went back to get a little bit of shading added to the inside of the feet. Justin basically did the exact opposite of what he asked for. He shaded areas my husband didn’t want shaded and made the toes on the feet so dark you can no longer see any of the detail. I just don’t understand how an artist would ruin their own work (maybe he was offended that he asked for a touch up). The feet look terrible, you can’t even see the creases of the toes anymore. We now have to go somewhere else in hopes of fixing it, if not he will have to be stuck with a tattoo he’s no longer excited to show off. Just really sucks that you put your trust in someone and ask them to make one tiny change and the Artie decides to add a bunch more color u didn’t want. Bummed

My wife and I wanted matching tattoos in honor of our first born. We checked out a bunch of tattoo shops. This was by far the best we found. The place was exceptionally hygienic and clean with a cool vibe. Owner, Justin, and all other artists were super chill and extremely talented.
For my first tattoo I wanted something special. Justin really delivered. The design and freehand talent displayed made for an awesome tattoo and a most memorable experience to go with it.
Will absolutely be going back to Dermagraphink

Justin Lewis is by far the most talented tattooist out there. His ability not only as a tattooist, but his work as an ARTiST is remarkable. I highly recommend Justin it’s so worth the drive and the time!

Mike was so patient with me and did a beautiful job not only once but twice, he did a sun/​moon on my ribs and roses on my hip, he took so much time to make sure everything was perfect and that everything was ready when I got there, he is always so nice and I am huge on customer service as it is part of my job as well and he provided the absolute best, my first tattoo was the sun and moon right on the ribcage a tough spot but he really put me at ease, and for the roses well I cried like a baby but he got it done took his time and made sure it was really beautiful, and I am so happy with the results of both tattoos, he gave me every bit of advice to help keep it clean and to heal it told me to call with any questions/​concerns and Because mike is so awesome I wouldn’t go anywhere else!!!

After spending a really long time searching for just the right place to get my first tattoo, I finally came across this amazing gem! I got my first tattoo from Justin yesterday! He took my idea and turned it into a beautiful work of art! It is so much better than I had imagined! I couldn’t be happier with it!
The shop has a really great energy and is full of great art! The whole place is really clean and very professional-​yet comfortable and a great place to hang out! Everyone there was so nice and my nerves were immediately calmed when I first walked in. Justin was great to talk to while he was working-​like an old friend:) He is an amazing artist, and made the whole experience really wonderful.
I’m already planning to go back for more:)

Amazing place, man. Best in NoHo by FAR; take it from someone who lives around the area and has gone to all the shops in the area. Don’t go anywhere else! Dermagraphink has great atmosphere, not like those small, stuffy shops. This place is big and comfy, and they have a nice little outside patio behind the shop where you can chill while your tattoo is being drawn, or while you wait for your appointment. The artists here are highly professional and have great, friendly attitudes. They’re happy to help you out to make sure that you’re happy with what you get tattooed. reasonable prices, too.
So far, I have being going to Justin for my tattoos. He has an extensive amount of skill and experience with tattooing. I think this guy can handle any tattoo, lol.

I was a 40 + year old tattoo virgin until my bday on ³⁄₁₅. I have been wanting a tattoo for awhile so thought why not on my bday! I am glad I decided to get my tattoo here!
Everyone was so cool and amazing! Heather did my tattoo, she was super sweet and supportive. I felt at ease and comfortable. It didn’t hurt as bad as I thought it would.
When I am ready for my next tattoo, guess where I’m going!!!

Best tattoo artists around! Justin and Heather are artists first and foremost, they want to get your ideal tattoo just right. I got my second tattoo here by heather and love it! She was super nice, even when I whined about it a little. And she’s a perfectionist, which is exactly what you want with tour tattoo artist. She asked if I liked it when she was done, and I thought it looked great but asked what she thought. She ended up shaping and shading even more and made it look even better! Everyone that works here is friendly and they’ve always got some cool artwork on display. Go here!

Went to the shop two weeks ago and got my 1^st tattoo!
I really love it! Adam was my artist and he really did a great job.
I’m a SF Giants fan and when I saw the SF tat on the calf in the photo section that had me sold!
