Fantastic experience: I had not had a tattoo before but was wanting something meaningful to mark a big life transition. Ciel listened to my ideas and incorporated my important elements into an inspirational and beautiful piece. I dozed off during the process and it has been quick to heal. Love it!

Kelsey King Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: Tattooed by Sierra. Love the shop atmosphere.

Kaylyn Gary Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: I was visiting from out of town and wasn’t familiar with the area, and Sham was extremely helpful and kind with me from start to finish! She made me feel calm and welcomed, and took the time to talk me through the entire process. She even waited with me for my Uber and made sure I got in safely. I had the best experience!!!

Owen Zimmerman Published on Google 2 months ago

Fantastic experience: My artist Sham was amazing! She had a great personality and made me feel calm and comfortable throughout the whole process. The tattoo she gave me is immaculate, and I know I’ll treasure it for life!

Fantastic experience: I got tattooed by Sham, she was lovely and did excellent work. The artists were all very friendly and clearly passionate about their jobs. The studio itself was pleasant and had a nice atmosphere :)

Tara Davenport Published on Google 3 months ago

Fantastic experience: I got a tattoo at Tattoo 34 this past weekend and it was a wonderful experience! It was my fourth tattoo but my first time at Tattoo 34. My sister and I had coordinated a time with Ciel to come in for matching tattoos. He was so incredibly friendly and helpful with ensuring we got exactly what we were after - checking out different sizes and orientations. :) The shop is so gorgeous as well and I felt very comfortable the entire time I was there. Looking forward to going back!!

Fantastic experience: Micaeah was amazing. No only did she take the time to really understand my vision for my tattoo, she also was extremely professional, hygienic, and supportive. Micaeah had great ideas and created a beautiful tattoo for me. The shop was gorgeous - plants, lighting, decor - all on point. Clean bathroom and waiting area, spotless and tidy session space.

Wendy London Published on Google 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely recommend! Nisha had great communication pre and post tattoo. Building has a nice design and vibe. Toby is kind, thoughtful, and a very gifted artist. I feel very fortunate to have a tattoo that he created. My appointment turned into a very long day, but a really special experience. And I love my new tattoo. Thank you Tattoo34.

Nicole LP Published on Google 4 months ago

Fantastic experience: This place is great! I’m not a very experienced tattoo-getter, and I was made to feel really comfortable here from scheduling online to my experience in the studio. I got tattooed by Sham! I got one tattoo originally and ended up going back a month later for another one that complements the first one. Sham took tons of time to make sure I liked the design and placement and fully realized my vision. Update: I went back for my 3rd tattoo from Sham and I'm obsessed. I love it so much! She fully brought my vision to life.

Corinne Dust Published on Google 5 months ago

Rose Kaz Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: I had an incredible experience at this Hawthorne tattoo studio in Portland. My artist was an absolute dream to work with — she understood my vision instantly and transformed it into a piece of artwork I’m genuinely proud to wear. Her communication, creativity, and calm confidence made the whole process easy and enjoyable. You can tell the owners truly care about what they do and about the people who work with them. The shop itself is cozy, light-filled, spotless, and honestly a plant lover’s paradise. It has that rare mix of professional and welcoming that puts you at ease the second you walk in. If you’re looking for a Portland tattoo shop that delivers top-tier artistry and a great overall experience, this is the one. Highly recommend.

Addie Mascioli Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Incredibly kind and patient artists! My family and I got matching tattoos on a walk-in day and the experience was amazing. Be prepared to wait during walk-in days as these are pretty popular. Ambiance was nice, they have free snacks and water, a comfy waiting room, and a clean bathroom w/ hygiene products. Great place to get a first tattoo :). Thank you Sarah and Sham!!

Jennifer Greene Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: I love my tattoo by Sierra Luna! She gave me exactly what I was hoping for and the experience was excellent. She was very responsive! She met with me for a consult a couple of months before the tattoo and drew a sketch of the tattoo design while we talked. On the day of the tattoo, she showed me the design and was totally open to a few small changes - only a small change was needed since she had done such a good job of listening to what I wanted. The tattooing itself went very well. She was very focused and has excellent technique. She was great about me taking short breaks during the process. The tattoo healed perfectly with no problems at all. I am planning to return to Sierra for my next tattoo!

Anne MLD Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: The folks at tattoo 34 are incredible! Me and my 2 friends did a random walk in for matching tattoos and they accommodated us like we were family ❤️ We were visiting from Canada and on a time crunch to get these tattoos done. Toby, Sham and Ciel set up three tables and inked us all at the same time. The experience they gave us was amazing and truly an 10/10. When we are back Portland, we are definetly getting more art done by this shop! Thanks again to Tattoo 34! We will be back ❤️

Ivan Palavra Published on Google 7 months ago

Fantastic experience: Great experience with Hanam Mun. Works with you creatively, great time during the session, and responds well to questions. And of course, absolutely amazing artist.

Allison Ella Viaja Published on Google 8 months ago

Negative experience: Eyebrow tinting resulted in severe chemical burns. I booked a consultation for brow tinting with Zuri. During the consult, and on the intake paperwork I said MULTIPLE times that I have contact dermatitis, that I am allergic to dyes and chemicals. I asked about her products, she said that her products are "henna" and "eu compliant". Since she insisted that her product was henna, and I use henna exclusively to dye my hair, plus I've announced my severe allergy 6 times during 15 minutes, I felt she was applying a product that was only henna. It wasnt. After the chemical reaction started to Cook on my face, i asked her to list the ingredients in the product she used on me and it was ALL CHEMICALS, with the minor ingredient being henna. It's been 5 days, I have reached out to Zuri for assistance and her response has been "she's traveling," "her products are eu compliant," to try a "cold compress" which actually makes reactions more severe, and that she wanted me to have a positive experience. It's been 5 days, the chemical reaction will last 4-6 weeks, this morning my eyes are so swollen almost shut, all photos provided to Zuri, to which she has remained silent, that I have to make a trip to the ER. I doubt Zuri will magically find some integrity, she hasn't even offered to refund the $50 I paid for this nightmare this has the potential to blind me, in addition to burn the skin off of my face and ñegatively impact my life for at least the next 4-6 weeks. Instead she will just assure clients who have been quite clear in their communication, that her decade of experience and want for $50 is far superior to their legitimate health concerns.

Matt Conklin Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Sarah is an amazing artist. Her attention to detail is exceptional. I've got a few tattoos from her so far and all were exactly what I envisioned. Especially my dog Tootsie which is perfect. You can see how she translated the picture in amazing detail. I'm working on an arm and leg sleeve with her currently and they're both going to be amazing as well. The shop is great, very clean and professional. Everyone is friendly and welcoming.

Destinie Davis Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: This place is an awesome spot to get work done. I’ve worked with two different artists here, and both were super professional, kind, knowledgeable, and really talented. I especially can’t recommend Sarah enough. I’m not new to tattoos, but Sarah was the first artist who really took the time to explain the pros and cons of using color and how it would work with my skin tone. She walked me through shading, gradients, and how time can affect how a tattoo ages—which really helped me feel confident in the design choices. During the session, she was super attentive to how I was feeling and checked in regularly to make sure I was doing okay. That kind of care is something I’ve only experienced at this shop. The final piece she created totally captured what I was going for, even though it ended up being different from the first image I brought in. I’m beyond happy with the result and would recommend this place to anyone.

Betsy Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Really enjoyed my experience at Tattoo 34, specifically my experience with Sierra. She was kind and thoughtful, and let me have a silent appointment with my noise canceling headphones. My first session was smooth and I'm looking forward to my second! Also, the interior of the building is such a good vibe.

Erik Torell Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Everyone is super nice and incredibly talented. Sham is really warm, a fantastic listener, seriously talented, funny, kind and incredibly gentle.

Tia Williams Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of having Micaeah Ramos as my tattoo artist! She was so welcoming and fun! I loved her energy! She is super communicative, she asked during the session if I was okay, and if I needed to to take a break. Not only that she checked to see if I liked the tattoo prior to it being finished and if I wanted anything different or added! This was a first and I loved it! She listened to everything I wanted and more! 10/10 will only be going to her from now on ☺️. We did a black widow!

Smallgalaxy S Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: This was my first tattoo and Hanam was my artist. He did an amazing job brining my concept to life beautifully and was open to making a couple of last minute changes to the design the day of. I also wanted to ensure I worked with an artist who had experience doing vibrant colors on brown/melenated skin and he delivered. The top picture was taken day of right after, the bottom picture (not the best lighting) is about 4 weeks after and mostly healed. I'm super happy with how it turned out and would definitely reccomend working with Hanam!

CR B Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Came in on a walk-in day with a pre drawn design my little cousin made and everyone was nice as hell. My artist Ciel made a kick ass suggestion for the design and it's already one of my fav pieces. Just good vibes and amazing technique all around ♥️

Mike Malter Published on Google 10 months ago

Fantastic experience: Sierra Luna is one of the tattoo artists working at the clean, bright and inviting Tattoo 34 studio. She is friendly, patient, and professional... comforting and reassuring. It’s clear that her goal is to give each of her clients a great tattoo, and she’s given me two beautiful ones during this past year!! ABSOLUTELY FIVE STARS for both Sierra and Tattoo 34!!!

Frances Perez-Malloway Published on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: This was my first tattoo. I had an exceptional visit. The studio was very clean and inviting. I can’t say enough about Sham! She took very good care of me and her work is beautiful. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a tattoo.

Kelsey McVeigh Published on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: I have gotten 2 tattooes with Sham now. Both of them are amazing! Sham is so sweet and helpful. She's great at her work, especially masterfully mixing my ideas with her artistry

Cherie S Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I had the best experience at Tattoo 34 and was lucky enough to work with the very kind and talented Sarah. I provided Sarah with some details of what I was hoping for with my tribute tattoo to my late father and she turned my vision into the most beautiful piece of art that I will forever get to remember him by. There are no words to describe how special this tattoo is to me and how wonderful of an artist she is. Thank you so much to Sarah and the Tattoo 34 family for such a wonderful experience.

Katie Galang Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Really cool space and waiting area. Sierra was super friendly and I would definitely go back!

Allan Beaudry Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience with Sarah at Tattoo 34. She really listened and communicated with me to make sure the design was exactly what I wanted, even when I didn’t have a clear idea at first. She made the whole process feel easy and exciting. On top of that, Sarah was super friendly, welcoming, and easy to talk to — she made getting my first tattoo an absolute breeze. I couldn’t have asked for a better artist or a better experience. Highly recommend!

Diana Sifuentes Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I had a tattoo done here about a month ago with Sham and it was an amazing experience! Sham was so patient, considerate, and helpful as she worked with me. She explained everything she was doing and told me about every single needle change. She also checked in with me consistently on how I was feeling, and how I was feeling about the progress of the tattoo. I felt so comfortable and at home! The space is also absolutely beautiful and well taken care of. The passion and care of all the artists here is so evident through their service and space. Im already thinking of coming back for my next tattoo!

Cheryl Putnam Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Wonderful walk-in experience! Sierra was thorough and easy to work with-her work is stunning! Will definitely visit again when I’m back in the area.

Mae “Mae” Swenson Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I came in for their Walk in Sunday and was first up. Sham was absolutely amazing and has been the most considerate tattoo artist I have ever had. They let me know each time there was a needle change and that I would feel a difference. We went through a colored tattoo on the fly and Sham stopped each step of the way to let me check it out and give suggestions. I am 100% going to come back when I visit again.

kacy borba spann Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Toby and Nisha are the kind of people you want to support. Amazing small business!! It took me 12 years to find an artist I felt comfortable with for two large thigh pieces. I first met Nisha at an event I was hosting and knew her spouse would be the right fit. Toby did not dispoint, we took many sessions and numerous years to finish these very detailed, spirit-guided medicine tattoos and I couldn't be happier. Tears of joy and gratitude fill my eyes and heart when I reflect on our time together (Toby is easy to talk to during sessions and Nisha makes scheduling so easy). I abSOULutely love my new tattoos! Thank you Tattoo 34!!

Andy Hall Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Stopped in on "walk in's" day to get a little tattoo to augment an existing one. Micaeah took care of me and was completely amazing. She helped me research options, made great suggestions, and her work was amazingly neat. All the stars for my visit here

Erica Findley Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I got my first tattoo in 20 years from Hanam at at Tattoo 34. I'm so lucky that I found someone who was excited about my idea. Hanam gave me a gift and I am so grateful for this Braktoo. Hanam was also thoughtful and gentle durring the session. I felt cared for and listened to. The shop is very calming with lots of plants and natural light. Definitely check out Hanam and Tattoo 34.

Tisha Files Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Came in today for the walk in. My sister and I got matching tattoos. Our tattoo artist was Ciel, he did a wonderful job and was very informative with the questions we asked. I will definitely be coming back again!

Danielle Lopez Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I recently got my second tattoo from Hanam at this location, and I only have good things to say. The location is very cozy, welcoming, and clean! Great spacious bathroom as well. Hanam is super considerate and will check in about both design and comfort through every step. He is very considerate with his clients, and he event made some last-minute design tweaks based on my other current pieces without my having to ask. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Amazing first tattoo experience!! Sierra Scoby was able to take a concept my daughter & I had been imaging for years and turned it into beautiful pieces of art. She made us feel at ease and the whole experience was wonderful. We’ll be back!!

Casper Menson Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Had a fantastic experience! My husband and I wanted matching koi tattoos and we reached out to Hanam and were quickly set up with a consult and then session within a month. The shop is great, and felt very homey. Hanam was happy to make a minor revision on the day of our session, and he was also very patient with us as we figured out the perfect placement. His work is beautiful, and it healed perfectly. Would definitely come back again!

Aidan Lee Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Today was the first time I got to visit Tattoo 34. I’ve been a client of Hanam’s for a handful of years now — I’ve had all my tattoos done by him so far and fully committed to grow my collection of work. As someone who can be almost overly sensitive to their surroundings, I felt a little shy walking in for the first time, but was put to ease immediately as the shop had a very comfortable home-y feel to it. There were healthy plants in just about every corner of every room, and the aesthetic design was well thought out. It really felt like a cozy, upscale artist space that specifically catered to the guests’ comfortability. During my appointment, there was light energetic banter everywhere around us, and I even got to make friends with the neighboring artist and their client as well. It truly felt like everyone was friends, and I can definitely sense that the artists’ supported each other as well. The owners floated in and out of the store but was warm and welcoming, always making an effort to compliment the artists’ work and becoming familiar with the guests. All in all, my experience here has been nothing short of amazing and I’m happy that Hanam has chosen to make this place his new home for his artistry — it truly felt like I had spent the day hanging out with chill, kind friends and I got to walk out with yet another amazing piece of art. I can’t wait to come back, not for just another tattoo but to say hi to everyone again!

Gabriella Kiss Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Absolutely loved my experience at this tattoo studio! From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by the friendly and professional team, and the atmosphere was just perfect. The studio is beautifully decorated with a bright, clean, and relaxing vibe, enhanced by all the lovely plants around. Everyone was incredibly professional, making me feel at ease throughout my visit. A huge thank you to Toby for his amazing work on my tattoo! I was blown away by how well the hand-drawn design came to life — it exceeded all of my expectations. The attention to detail and artistry is truly remarkable. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. This was hands down the best tattoo experience I’ve had, and I’m already looking forward to coming back. Thank you so much for creating such beautiful art for me! Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an amazing tattoo experience!

Nick Niemeyer Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I love that they give advice on ink migration and how the art will look years down the road. Other places seem too eager to get ink on your body. Very professional and friendly. Everyone there is happy to help. Makes the process very easy and fun.

Phil Elcock Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I had my very first tattoo with Toby and I'm glad it was with him! He was attentive and detail oriented and absolutely professional. He answered all my questions and was receptive to feedback as we worked out the final design. In particular, I really liked how he made suggestions regarding certain details that really helped bring the final piece to life. It's like he sees more than just the visual design of the piece, he can glimpse the soul of it, and that comes out as he's working. I'm immensely satisfied with the results and I'm so happy that my first tattoo experience was with him!

Harley Augustino Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: TOBY and TATTOO 34 are FABULOUS- 5 STARS!…. It was my first tattoo, so I had no idea what to expect. I showed up with a vague concept, and Toby had a great way of drawing out my ideas, and then adding to them. It was a very collaborative process that honored Toby’s masterful artistic instincts with my ideas. He has a ton of resources to draw inspiration from, which kept the creative process flowing. Most of all Toby is an extremely kind genuine person, a good listener, and clearly respected by all- as evidenced by all the other artists that asked to come in and take a look, hoping to glean some wisdom from his art, and his process.

Serena K Hart Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This place is wonderful! Toby, who designed and did my tattoo, was great. He took my design idea and created a beautiful tattoo for me. He did an exceptional job. I'm blown away with my tattoo. It turned out better than I had imagined in my head. Thank you, Toby!! I love it!! The other staff were welcoming, friendly, and helpful. The place had a homey feel to it, and it was very clean. I would 100% recommend coming here, and I would definitely go back.

Fantastic experience: Phenomenal tattoo experience! The shop was beautiful & clean with a lovely waiting area and lots of plants. I got my tattoo by Sierra. The whole experience was very professional and educational. Sierra did a great job checking in and making sure I was comfortable. The tattoo came out beautifully and I can't wait to go back to get my next one!

Hanna Howard Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: $150-200/hr Got a tattoo done on walk-in Sunday by Ciel, 10/10 the best tattooing experience I’ve ever had. The atmosphere in the shop and by Ciel was super welcoming and friendly. For the tattoo itself he did an AMAZING job. I came in with a very vague idea of what I wanted and he executed it even better than I could have dreamed of. If you’re in the Portland area and want to get a tattoo you NEED to come here!

Ed Harris Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Had a great experience at Tattoo 34. Micaeah Ramos did an amazing job creating what I was looking from a variety of sketches I shared.

Mustard Tiger Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: When I walked in, I was impressed by the cleanliness, professionalism, and welcoming atmosphere. Hanam and other tattoo artists here are incredibly talented and take the time to listen to your vision while offering their advice to ensure the design comes out perfect. My tattoo turned out even better than I imagined — the attention to detail and craftsmanship are top tier. Throughout the entire process, Hanam made sure I was comfortable and walked me through every step. The shop has a great vibe, with a strong emphasis on hygiene and customer care, which put me at ease. I am already planning something with him again soon. Thank you again Hanam, and thank you Brenda Chi for the design!

Blake Messina Published on Google 1 year ago

Julia Riley Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Just got a small piece done on a walk-in Wednesday with Sham, and it was a surprisingly fantastic experience for how much pain I was in. Sham worked with me to get the design and layout just right and completely nailed the execution. Obviously tattoos hurt, and this one was no different, but the environment at Tattoo 34—from the aesthetics to the artists to the music to the other clients—made the whole process much easier to bear. I felt very welcome to experience my pain wholeheartedly and without judgment. And Sham's personality was a beacon from start to finish. Highly recommend this team and this shop to anyone in the Portland area looking to get a tattoo!

Anagha Varrier Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: My best friend and I went to get tattooed together, we went during one of the walk-in Sundays - both of us are extremely satisfied with our tattoos and both our artists were so personable and sweet. If you live in Seattle, the drive to Portland is worth it since their walk-in prices are so reasonable when compared to Seattle studios.

Alison Wesley Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot believe how amazing my tattoo came out thanks to Micaeah. It's truly beyond what I could've imagined! I was so impressed with all of Tattoo34 as well. The vibe was relaxed and professional (they played amazing music) and I never felt rushed as I was making decisions about placement. I felt so listened to. This was my best tattoo experience ever, I'd highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Was out in the neighborhood with friends and saw the Walk-In Event sign. I am so happy that we decided to give this shop a try. Not only was everyone personable and knowledgeable, but the pricing was great. Aftercare instructions and follow up has been wonderful. I have been wanting to get more tattoos so I feel like finding Tattoo34 was quite serendipitous. Excited to get more work done here.

The culture and atmosphere were amazing. I appreciate the after care emails and texts from Ciel. Will definitely come again when we come to visit!

Zachariah Bazan Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Awful place to get a tattoo. I paid to have a tattoo done. Started out fine, but when I went in for my next session they informed me that the artist no longer works there. So am I just left with an unfinished tattoo? Ceil was very rude regarding my situation. He showed no sympathy or care about the incident. He told me that he would finish it but would treat it as a new tattoo, charging me all over again. I guess expecting me to pay twice for the same tattoo. He then stated that another option would be is to relay the original artists information to me so that I could get it finished by her. He never did so, instead canceling my appointment without warning and then dodging my calls. I've both called and texted many times and have received no response.. To share a bit of my experience and to show the differences in character between myself and the company, I was never charged initially and my first session was done prior to any payment. Upon finishing she made her way to the computer to charge me only to find out that the systems were down and could not accept payments. I could have very well walked out without paying a dime and never went back, but I am a man of my word and not a thief. I'm not that type of person. I went back the next day to pay. The tattoo is pretty much complete and only needs some color touch ups due to leakage from using second skin.. I was promised 2 free touch ups by the artist in a contract.. However, as I stated before she no longer works there. So instead of charging me a reasonable price to add some color that came out, (1 color, very simple. Just center no line definitions) Yes, Ceil wanted to charge me for a whole new tattoo and was rude about it. The company has been dodging me since. Way to treat people who show you loyalty!

Hi Zach, we understand that you are frustrated with your experience. We have let you know that the independent tattoo artist who did your original work is the artist who would give you a free touch up and working with a different artist does require payment. You can find this info on our website under touch up: https://www.tattoo34pdx.com/after-tattoo

You are correct the artist who did your tattoo is no longer at Tattoo 34 and has not been with us for over 4 months, they are at a different shop and we have given you their info. Our current Tattoo 34 artist Ciel was willing to work with you until you didn’t pay a deposit to set up an appointment, which is our artists policy. We appreciate our clients support and we do enjoy working with people who are respectful of our artists talent, time and our shop policies.

Fantastic experience: Very clean and comfortable place to get tattooed. Hanam did both mine and my husband's ink, and we were both so pleased. He worked quite fast and he was very sanitary and considerate. I could tell he was listening carefully to what we wanted, even though we just popped in on a whim during their Sunday walk-in event. I got one of his flash pieces and my partner got a simple custom; Hanam went away for a little while to draw up the design, and when he came back, I could tell my partner was so excited about how it looked. They had various snacks for customers as well as a wated dispenser. I will definitely be coming back to this parlor again.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful atmosphere and experience all of the artists are very welcoming. Our artist Micaeah Ramos did an amazing job on my wife and I's tattoo. Couldn't be happier!

Fantastic experience: This place is DOPE!!! The atmosphere was welcoming and providing (they got water and snacks). My consultation was conversational, direct, and on point. My initial session was AMAZING and completed most of the open space on my Sleeve. The follow-up session (free) was just as impressive, completing the previous project and lasting longer than I expected (the artist even suggested/was willing to do additional touch-ups on work she hadn't done!) My artist was Micaeah Ramos and she was The other artists I interacted with, too, were competitive in quality, each in their own specialties. The atmosphere was so relaxed and open that it opened it up for myself and the other customers to talk freely about our lives and tattoos (some quality therapy ). A little surprise when trying to find the place, as it's not yet boldly branded like most shops, but it seems to be the right of passage. ♥️

Fantastic experience: I got my 5th tattoo here and it was the best experience I have had! Micaeah is a wonderful tattoo artist, I adore my new tat! The space is clean, inclusive, and fun. I will absolutely be back for another!

Fantastic experience: I love this shop. The environment is comfortable, clean, and laid back. The artists are extremely talented and are also just cool people. And I really appreciate that their values drive everything they do. My first tattoo here was a cover-up by Toby Linwood when the shop was still relatively new. He was able to pinpoint my style and then created a beautiful piece of work that strangers on the street are still constantly complimenting. A couple years later I was ready to come back in for a new design and wanted to work with Toby again. It did take a little while to get on his schedule (he's very in demand), but it was worth the wait to work with someone who's talented, who gets my style, and who cares deeply about their work. Nisha, who runs the business-y part of the shop, is warm and super communicative. From the time I first reached out until my tattoos were touched up and healed, I always knew exactly what to expect and what I needed to do. Just such an easy and enjoyable experience.

Fantastic experience: I'd been waiting to get tattooed by Toby for 2 years when I found him during a search for BIPOC tattooers/shops. So worth the wait! 10.5 hrs under Toby's needle was a breeze. It barely hurt, and the results are STUNNING. I'm so happy.

Fantastic experience: Stellar shop with great people. Cannot say thanks enough Hanam for all of the work you have done, can’t wait to come back!

Fantastic experience: Toby Linwood, and the artist at Tattoo are all so amazing, and well conducted. The shop is very clean, the atmosphere is great, with all the artist showing genuine interest with whatever you are getting tattooed. I will absolutely be back, and recommend the shop as a whole to anyone who asks me for a recommendation. Thank you guys for being absolute ballers!

Fantastic experience: To say this experience exceeded my expectations is such an understatement. The shop is clean (rivals the cleanliness of a doctors office), has great natural lightening, and the staff I interacted with were warm and friendly. My appointment with Micaeah was terrific. She took the rough sketch of my tattoo and truly made it a work of art. Micaeah is incredibly talented and a great to work with. She made the appointment fly by with fun, casual conversation and ensured I was comfortable the entire time. I'm already looking forward to getting my second tattoo done by them. Thank you Micaeah and Tattoo 34 for making my first tattoo not only gorgeous but also very memorable.

Fantastic experience: I was a walk-in, surfing on am impulse for a praying mantis. I got matched with Sarah, who pulled an image off google and proceeded to give me stellar linework and good conversation, too. Tattoo 34 has good energy with good people doing good work. I highly recommend Sarah!

Kim D. Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This gem of a shop is hidden in plain view on Hawthorne. I never knew it was even there. It's spacious and clean and everyone is very friendly. They have a great system for scheduling, checking-in, and even follow-up after your appointment which is a great touch. The most important thing is one of the most talented artists in the biz, Hanam inks there. His work is next level! Oh and their minority-owned too!

Laicy Wester Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Sarah made my daughter and my Mother’s Day, matching tatty dreams come true!! I will always look at my rise ink and smile at the happy memory. ❤️

Miri Goldade Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great experience with Hanam! He did a fantastic job on a large thigh piece for me. He was super nice, considerate and frequently asking if I was comfortable. His art and tattoo style are incredible! I'd definitely recommend him to anyone that wants a beautiful, detailed tattoo. Photo is of the healed tattoo. I also loved the shop, cool old renovated house, very cozy!

Ari Castellano Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Went in on a walk-in day, got a quick tattoo on my collarbone by Ciel, communication went well, pricing is good, the tattoo looks great, exactly what I wanted. Would recommend to friends and family, and would go again.

Fantastic experience: Did walk in Wednesday / wonderful environment found my new artist she added to my puppy’s paw with a mirrored name and symbol

mrs Stargazer Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was honestly nervous getting my first "big girl tattoo" in the sense that I was ready to get some real art tattooed on my skin vs just the small line work I had prior to today. Hanam was very pleasant for conversation and detail oriented. I am so happy with how my tattoos turned out. I am glad I trusted him. My trust proved well placed. I definitely look forward to getting more art from Hanam and tattoo 34.

Fantastic experience: After looking in depth for a tattoo artist I wanted to work on me and I found Toby Linwood of Tattoo 34. It took a while to get in to see him (because he's brilliant) but I sensed it would be worth the wait. My experience was incredible. Toby listened to what I wanted and then I completely trusted him to work his magic. We went through some photos so he could get the feel of my design and then it was all him. And so impressive as he draws straight on the skin and then free styled a lot of it. I felt like I got to witness his creative process in action. The atmosphere was super relaxed. He followed my lead with regard to breaks and pauses, but honestly it wasn't nearly as painful as I imagined. We went over time, but he was focused and all in to finish it in one session if that's what I wanted. I met Nisha his lovely wife and his son, and other tattoo artists. The whole studio felt like it was a family affair. So chilled and inviting. We had some great conversations and I learned about Toby's indigenous roots and some of his traditions and love of tribal art. My experience couldn't have been better. AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my tattoo and love having the Oregon coast on my body. I'm already thinking about my next one! I can't recommend Toby and Tattoo 34 highly enough.

Fantastic experience: One of the best tattoo experiences I've ever had! The shop was bright and clean, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and the level of skill Jenny Koll has is unparalleled. Truly top notch! She was able to work with my vision to create a deeply meaningful tattoo that far exceeded my expectations! She even offered to touch up an older tattoo while she was working, which was greatly appreciated. Now both tattoos on my arm look amazing! I will definitely be returning!

Shaniah Haughton Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had a delightful experience getting tattooed by Jenny at Tattoo 34. Her line work is truly remarkable, and I absolutely love the custom piece she created for me! The shop itself is exceptionally clean, aesthetically pleasing, and exudes professionalism. Although I initially opted for a silent appointment, I ended up engaging in a delightful conversation with Jenny throughout the session. She is an exceptional artist and a wonderful person to interact with. To my delight, I also had the pleasure of speaking with one of the owners at the end of my appointment, and she was incredibly kind and welcoming. I'm excited to return next month to complete the shading. Without reservation, I highly recommend Tattoo 34 for anyone seeking an exceptional tattoo experience!

Megan Pearlman Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was fortunate enough to get a custom tattoo from Jenny and can’t say enough good things about the whole process! The space is beautiful and accommodating and everyone was really nice. Jenny is an amazing artist and knocked my idea out of the park. I’m so in love with my tattoo and hope to get more work from Jenny in the future!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely phenomenal experience. I got an upper thigh piece done by Jenny Koll - one of the best shop & artist experiences I’ve ever had. Professional, but comfortable. The shop itself is adorable and has a good amount of space between people. Natural lighting and plants everywhere. Jenny was so accommodating, and matched my energy where I was at. My piece turned out exactly how I wanted, and I most definitely hope to return here for more work :)

Sabrina P Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I went in on a Sunday right when they opened, and I was greeted and helped by Sarah. She did a fantastic job on creating my vision and executing it so quickly and easily. I started as a walk in customer and came out a future regular customer. I’ll def be coming back for my next one (with an appointment I’m sure). I’ll add that the shop is cute, clean, bright, and welcoming!

Fantastic experience: I came in for an appointment with Toby to do a basket design I made. He made my vison a reality and I am ecstatic with the results! The shop is a pleasant Vibe when you walk in, and they are super friendly and accommodating! Definitely highly recommend tattoo34pdx.

Fantastic experience: Came in on a walk in day and received a warm welcome from the shop. I was able to get matching tattoos with my daughter from Micaeah and they came out perfect. Very good experience from start to finish. Would highly recommend!

Tyler Nelson Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Perfect tattooing experience. Micaeah was the best, a great artist and personality. Went above and beyond on the idea I've had for years and made the 9 hours go quick. Very happy with the sleeve and have definitely found my future shop and artist for other pieces.

Damian Moye Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Amelia is by far the dopest tattoo artist I’ve ever had! Really talented artist and one of the most amazing people I’ve ever met, go get some ink from her!

Natasha Lange Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I discovered Tattoo 34 on a Wednesday morning and that afternoon I came in for Walk-In Wednesdays with an idea of what I wanted and a few inspiration pictures. Ciel helped me hone in on an exact image/style I was looking for, then designed a custom tattoo for me on the spot in about 20 minutes. It is absolutely perfect, better than I could have ever imagined. The tattooing experience itself was basically just an hour long meditation. Super good vibes from him and the space in general. I'll be back for sure.
