Mantle Tattoo

Fantastic experience: I'll go ahead and give five stars because is a good nature wolf tattoo. A wolf is one my favorite animals!!:) And I was glad to have something done before starting my new job later at Yosemite national park!:)

Fantastic experience: very good service couldn’t even feel it and it came out amazing

Fantastic experience: Very professional and responsive tattoo shop. They will match you based on the style you’re looking to get and it’s a pretty seamless process. Very clean shop and fun playlist - not a lot of people or distractions making it easier to get in the zone for the discomfort. Artist Jun is very talented with fine lines and detail exceeding expectations in the best way.

Fantastic experience: I treated myself to my seventh tattoo as a birthday gift this year, and I had an idea in mind for a fine line piece that I wanted Jun Kr of Mantle Tattoo to spearhead. Not only does Jun work with passion and gravitas, but he’s also effective and efficient in his approach. An incredible tattoo artist. Mantle Tattoo’s facility is spacious, clean, and welcoming, and in a cool, walkable part of DTLA. The office manager was very helpful in answering my questions and making me feel comfortable throughout the entirety of my appointment. I love my tattoo and love Mantle! I hope to return again soon, and if they release merch, I’ll be sure to represent!

Fantastic experience: Jun does great work, he took my concept and made it even better. I'll be back in a month for color work

Fantastic experience: got my very first tattoo here with Jun, and now I have five pieces done by him. Jun is absolutely phenomenal his work is incredibly detailed, and you can tell he truly cares about what he does. He always takes his time with each client and makes sure you’re 100% happy with the result. I’ve always felt comfortable and taken care of here. I’ll definitely be coming back soon. I highly recommend this place. I’m a very happy customer!!

Fantastic experience: I just had the best experience with Irina. She was very calm, knowledgeable, and enjoyable to get tattooed by. She is SO talented. I let her now what I wanted and showed some examples of work I liked, and she completely blew my mind with what she created. Very happy with this beautiful piece. Will definitely be coming back!

Fantastic experience: great experience, i got my tat done the next day with no trouble and communication was easy :)

Fantastic experience: Courtney was an excellent artist! She was funny, talkative, & very gentle. Im in love with her work!

Fantastic experience: Artist Jun Kr did an excellent job. He took the time to understand my idea and offered helpful input that shaped the final outcome. He never rushed the process, and throughout the tattoo session he was very careful and precise.

Fantastic experience: Cleanest tattoo spot I have have ever been to! Amazing work by my artist Jun! All around quick and easy great professional work I will definitely consider Mantle again for my next tattoo! ( tip: give yourself ample time for parking!!!)

Fantastic experience: They were very patient and worked with me in finding the perfect styling match for my tattoo request. The tattoo came out looking amazing!!! I look amazing my artist was Jun Kr. Amazing coverup.

Fantastic experience: Saw me on short notice for a realistic tattoo. Jun did great work!

Fantastic experience: Very fast and fun process, i highly recommend recommend this place for tattoos :)

Fantastic experience: Lina was freaking awesome! When we couldn’t find what we wanted she turned a template into something perfect.

Fantastic experience: I love Mantle. This is now my fifth straight tattoo and I wouldnt go anywhere else or with anyone else. Amazing communication, clean and prompt, and excellent skill.

Fantastic experience: I scheduled my tattoo a week in advance. I arrived at my appointment. My tattoo artist, Courtney, was awesome. She tatted and chatted. I paid and went about my day. I’d come back

Fantastic experience: Courtney was AMAZING! She was so welcoming, fun & just wonderful to have as a tattoo artist! Her work was beautiful & everything I wanted. My experience was a 100/10! Highly recommended!

Negative experience: Not a great experience. I was recommended this place from honorable society and gave my $100 deposit. When I went in to describe what I want for my cover up tattoo they said they would consult another artist to see if it was possible and if it wasn't they would give my money back. They ended up saying they can't do it and didn't give my money back. I went to other artists for a recco and they all said they could easily cover it up with what I want so idk. Scammy. They also said it would be like $1000 per session and would take multiple sessions...... So, super pricey spot

Fantastic experience: Mantle Tattoo was amazing. First and foremost, the artist, Iryna, was incredible, and I could not be happier with my new tattoo!! After I sent over my deposit, I met with her virtually to go over ideas for my design, and she worked up the art before my appointment. She even moved the appointment up an hour to give us more time to finalize the design and placement. As for the work itself, it's amazing. Iryna is clearly a very talented artist, and it shows in her work. She was also very attentive to making me feel comfortable throughout the 6+ hour appointment, which was really great. The shop itself was very clean, and my interactions with the staff and setting up the appointment were professional, smooth, and easy. I mostly corresponded through the shop's email, and they were very accommodating with scheduling and answering my questions. They also took my photos and general intentions for Iryna to be able to access during our appointments. I really appreciate them scheduling the virtual consultation before I came in-person. They also gave me a very reasonable estimate for the work! All in all, it was a super pleasant experience. My final note is only to do with payment. Mantle offers several methods to pay your balance, like venmo, zelle, and they have a credit card reader. Through no fault of the shop, Zelle blocked my transfer attempt, so a piece of advice to clients is to have backup payment methods available to save time. The credit card option was a nice backup, but the credit card terminal does charge a service fee.

Fantastic experience: Jun did a great job! Fast and great line work!

Fantastic experience: Nice and clean shop and Jun kr was kind enough to get me in in such a short notice. Overall good experience and would go back for another visit

Fantastic experience: Jun did a really good job with my fine line tattoos despite the tattoos being on the smaller side. I’ll definitely be coming back to fill out my arm :)

Fantastic experience: I took my daughter here for her first tattoo. We worked with Jun. He is Korean speaking, so they had an in-shop translator for the consultation, but the dynamic was so endearing- we loved it! We brought in a couple of images for inspiration. Se had some examples of the object she wanted, the shading style, and other inspiration. The consultation was fast and efficient. The tattoo was wicked efficient, knocking out exactly what she wanted in a short amount of time. The price was totally reasonable, the art and tattoo were perfect - absolutely worth it. It. All in all, this is a fantastic tattoo shop and deserving of my highest recommendation. In fact, I may come back here and get some work done. Loved them!

Fantastic experience: Great color and fine line work by Irina!! Shop is nice, clean, and professional as well!

Fantastic experience: I love the fine line tattoo they did on my hand, it came out so good

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience for my first tattoo. Staff was extremely cordial and actually helped in calming my nerves down before my first tattoo.

Fantastic experience: I found Mantle Tattoo in Germany after doing extensive research online. Since I wanted a fine line tattoo, Mantle was the perfect fit for me. Today was my appointment, and even though I arrived early, I was immediately greeted in a friendly manner. After providing my personal information, Jun started planning my tattoo with me right away. As a huge California fan, I wanted to get the word “California” tattooed. I placed great importance on beautiful lettering and delicate, precise work. Together with Jun, I designed my perfect tattoo, and I am now very happy to carry California with me forever. Thank you so much, Jun. Amazing work.

Fantastic experience: I have 13 tattoos by Jun! They all look exactly the way I wanted them to look (he helped me so much with placement) and I ALWAYS get compliments about how clean they look! He’s so talented I won’t go anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: Came in with an idea...but it wasn't going to work the way I wanted...but ended up with something cooler! Great place! I parked at Pershing Square!

Fantastic experience: They were from the word go. Easy to secure and appointment, they will require a deposit, but rightly so. Irina was excellent. I will be back for more work, and to get a tattoo touched up.

Fantastic experience: This was my 1st tattoo & have been a little worried that I may not love it. Lina was my artist & she was not only very talented & amazing at her craft, but she helped me figure out the perfect placement, size & font. Lina is also kind, compassionate & personable. She made it a wonderful experience & I love it so much!!!! Thanks Lina❤️

Fantastic experience: Extremely nice front office staff. Tattoos artist was very polite and willing to work with me. I wanted a fine line tattoo in the memory of my dog I had lost due to sudden illness. He was able to use my pictures to trace my dogs paw for the outline.

Fantastic experience: This was my first tattoo and it was a great experience overall. The artist was gentle and quick and his line work is top tier too!

Fantastic experience: I have nothing to say except for… great job. The staff was super kind and they reached me out for everything I needed. If you’re around I do recommend to go there if you want to have a tattoo. Nice guys, nice place, Lina (the girl who tattooed me) was super sweet and her touch was incredibly light when doing the tattoo!

Fantastic experience: Jun did a phenomenal job on a fine line tattoo he did for me. I showed him some inspiration photos and he seamlessly incorporated the best aspects of each into his design. I'm in love with it and thank him and Mantle for such a great experience. From making the appointment to the final product, 5 stars all around!

Fantastic experience: Jun kr: worked on my cover up! fast professional clean and almost painless, I think I found my new personal tattoo artist in LA thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: Responded quickly via text about my needs and I had an appointment basically the same day. I had a small but pre-designed tattoo, it was printed to my requested measurements, and it was done in under an hour. My appointment with Stas was perfect. Will definitely be back the next time in LA. Much love from the DMV

Fantastic experience: Maciej did a great job! I got my second tattoo, again on the top of my foot, and I had very little discomfort through the whole experience! I'll be back again!

Fantastic experience: I just wanted to take a moment to shout out this shop for an absolutely fire tattoo experience from start to finish. The customer service alone deserves five stars — everyone was welcoming, patient, and made sure I felt comfortable the entire time. They really took the time to walk me through the design, placement, and aftercare, which I appreciated a lot. The pricing was fair and completely worth every dollar, especially for the level of detail and professionalism that went into the work. No surprises, no extra fees — just straight honesty and quality. Now the art… man, the tattoo came out insane. The linework, shading, and composition are on point. The artist captured exactly what I wanted — powerful, clean, and bold. You can tell they’re passionate about what they do because the final piece looks even better than I imagined. I truly appreciate the time and effort that went into this tattoo. I’m proud to wear it, and I’ll definitely be coming back for more work. Highly recommend this shop to anyone looking for top-tier art and a great overall experience.

Fantastic experience: Jun did excellent work re-shading in three of my color tattoos that had significant fading. Will be coming back to have some new tattoos done by him!

Fantastic experience: Great experience! Super easy online process, the place was super clean and Daniel did an amazing job. He took my concept and idea and made it exactly what I wanted. Im so happy with my tattoo. Daniel's line work and shading is great, I highly recommend him. I may try to get another from him in the future. Parking sucks but given the location it could have been worse.

Fantastic experience: My stylist for my tattoo was Chris, he did an amazing job on the tattoo that I chose for Halloween. The ambience and vibe were great, I enjoyed the process of getting my tattoo no pain at all. Especially having a conversation and learning a little more about tattoo.

Fantastic experience: Mantle is a beautiful, CLEAN shop. Not a single creepy vibe either. My artist, Jun, listened to my request, tweaked my chosen design as necessary and created a perfect design. The tattoo means so much to me as it is a small tribute to my favorite band, Twenty One Pilots. I teared up when I saw the design. I will share a photo once the tagaderm bandages is off. Great shop! I was visiting from another state and will definitely go back!

I highly recommend this shop for cleanliness, service and product for anyone who might be debating it!

Fantastic experience: This was an incredible experience with talented and dedicated artists. Kristen is exceptionally talented and I could not be happier with the half sleeve she created for me.

Fantastic experience: Stas was great! The design he put together is beautiful, and he was really interesting to talk to while he did my tattoo. The shop itself is clean and comfortable.

Fantastic experience: The ease of the scheduling, communicating my desired tattoo ideas with quick responses, being assigned an artist who could make my vision come to life…I really thought it was all too good to be true. But Irina, my artist, did phenomenal with the details I provided her. They gained a loyal customer, for sure; I will absolutely be back to get more done!

Fantastic experience: Jun did a good job with my tattoo both with realism and minimalism. Very efficient and professional. Everything was done in no time. All the guys at the studio are nice and helpful.

Fantastic experience: I booked an appointment on a whim here and could not be happier with my experience!! The shop is so clean and the artists are super friendly. I got a fine line piece done and it’s flawless. Daniel is awesome. I requested an appointment online through their website and they almost immediately contacted me to set a same day appointment. If you’re in DTLA go to mantle!!

Fantastic experience: Walked in there needing help with a few ideas. Everyone was so friendly, amazing service from everyone, including Jun who is an amazing and passionate artist. So glad I went here for my first tattoo and wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. Thank you Jun and everyone else who works there! Will definitely be back for more.

Fantastic experience: Courtney is the best! I was able to get in same day. You just have to message them and they'll let you know if they can accommodate the process was really smooth. I'm looking forward to going back soon getting the rest of my tattoos!

Fantastic experience: Easy to schedule, fast and smooth communication, fast and smooth tattoo experience - all around totally solid. I had the artist Jun do my work. $200 total.

Fantastic experience: did three tattoos with Iryna today and she was absolutely amazing. It was my first tattoo ever and she made me feel safe and comfortable. Would highly recommend coming here. Clean and friendly environment! :))

Fantastic experience: I’ve never left a review before, but this place is amazing. Had to write a review for these guys. Scheduled an appointment online and was in there 1 week later getting my piece done. My artist Jun was too good. I thought it would’ve taken 4-5 hours, dude had it done in 2 and it looks so dope. Drew up my tattoo in roughly 30 minutes and it was spot on. Exactly what I had envisioned in my mind. Wish there was a 6 star option. Also, the prices are great. Thought I was gonna get charged around $700-$800, only ended up paying $450 after the $100 deposit. Highly highly highly recommend this place. Without question will be going back to finish up my sleeve. These guys are highly skilled and fairly priced

Fantastic experience: Incredible shop filled with even more incredible humans. I was visiting from out of state, had very limited availability, and they were able to get me in quickly. Communication was quick and very clear. The quality of the work was amazing! I had gone to a number of shops that wouldn't attempt the tattoo in the desired size due to the detail. The artists here didn't bat an eye, and even offered multiple options. Highly recommended if you're looking for work to get done!

Fantastic experience: Wow! My tattoo artist was sooo kind & brought my exact imagination on my skin. The stancil was already done when I arrived & it was just perfekt.. We only communicated per mail before and I tought it was a miracle how perfect she prepared the stancil for me! Even the tattooing itself was great, she talked a lot to me & she was so nice.. The tattoo ist sooooo perfect!! I love it!! Thank you so much Kristen!! :)

Fantastic experience: I got a tattoo done during my trip to LA. Courtney was very welcoming and did a beautiful job. She was diligent with her work, and got it done swiftly. The tattoo came out better than I imagined! I definitely recommend and would go back next time I’m around.

Fantastic experience: I got a tattoo here from artist Jun Kr. I already knew what I wanted, and he did a great job figuring out the size and location with me. Tattoo was applied perfectly with great line work!

Fantastic experience: Iryna was great, helping me design the perfect tattoo as well as the tattooing.
