So for starters...I started at 831 ink up the street from this shop and was recommended by Josh to see X because I wanted something quick that day. No big deal because I just wanted simple line work, I googled them and had issues finding them in the first place. Finally found them, I wasn't greeted other than a glance my way and I went up to them and X had no idea who Josh was so I was hoping by the slight chance he could fit me in. He seemed busy and rushed me along with a "we can take a walk-in tomorrow," okay, I walked away kind of disappointed with the service but can understand a busy schedule and frustrating time. So I come in the next day and emailed my design to X and came back in like an hour and got in...he had me sign the waiver but never gave me care instructions as the waiver said he would and rushed me along to pick a spot and seemed irritated when I asked him to move the stencil from the original spot he placed it. I felt intimidated the entire time, like the slightest set back would annoy him. So a quick 10 minute tattoo and I was done, simple small talk but not much else. my tattoo looked fine in the shop as I felt rushed to leave...he never gave me care instructions or told me anything. I had to ask for a+d ointment and some simple worded instructions. Even though this is my second tattoo, I needed a refresher but he seemed annoyed at that. I got back to my hostel and noticed how terrible the line work was and how some of the lines didn't even properly connect...its a small tattoo but really? I still love it but am overall really disappointed with the service and line work of this SIMPLE tattoo. It looks fine from a distance but up close it's a nightmare. Please pick a different shop like 831 INK, they were inviting and wanted to hear out every single one of my details and seemed to know what they were doing. Only giving them 2 stars for the easy walk-in availability but that's it. CHOOSE WISELY.

Got my tattoo over a year ago but I blocked this place put it my memory till now since I'm getting another tattoo. I was a walk-in customer. Waited to be seen. No big deal. But when it came to my tattoo....ugh. the guy needed an exact picture of what I wanted. He put in on the computer and printed it out. I asked for lettering to be wrapped around the tattoo. He said he couldn't do that since the computer couldn't do that. ??? He refused to do ANYTHING free hand. I asked for a few details and he said no, he can't do that either. Very unhappy with my tattoo. Don't remember who I saw. Today I'm getting a new tattoo and this one is being fixed as best it can.

Had a celestial compass done. Thanks work was on point in the sense that all the lines were super straight. In the really simple black outline detail some of the lines were suppose to be thicker. After getting to a mirror and having a look I noticed that wasn't the case. I went back to the shop 15 minutes later and the artist said it was indeed done that way I'll see it when it heals. I had to go to another artist to add that. Dishonest and reckless !

It took me awhile on deciding if I should do this review or not. But, I have finally decided to talk about it. I came in to the shop at the end of June and talked with a gentleman who was very informative and helpful. I told him I would come back the next day if I decided to get the tattoo. So the following day I came in as a walk in, and the gentleman ( a different one from the prior day) there squeezed me into his schedule. I was getting a piece that would remind me of my Great Grandma who passed away. (This was my first ever tattoo) The artist who did my tattoo made a sketch that I loved and it was great. I got on the table and the experience wasn't that bad, the artist didn't talk much but I'd rather him be able to focus than mess up on the tattoo.It was finished and I loved the look. A few weeks later and it is healed, and unfortunately I am devastated. The tattoo lines are not even, some are thicker than others. Also the lines bled through and I had a blowout on my tattoo. The obvious artist may have not been informed on different types of skin, so that could be why; and the ink has bled through deeper into my skin and some of the designs looked mushed together. Now I am stuck with a tattoo I do not want, and I'm very disappointed. When you go to a professional tattoo shop you expect them to know what they're doing and you trust that you'll be happy with the masterpiece. I now don't like to look at it and am contemplating on getting it removed.

I got my first tattoo here and could not be happier with it. X was very straightforward and professional. He had my design drawn up perfectly in 2 days. The work took about 2 hours, and he was so funny and easy to talk to the entire time. He was extremely aware and made sure everything was clean and sterile. The work he did is immaculate; I've had countless compliments for it. I think the pricing was fair and reasonable. Everyone at the shop seemed really nice and welcoming. I've had multiple people ask where I got my tattoo done, and I can easily recommend they come here for theirs.

I wanted to get a tattoo in memory of my brother after he died a year ago and had to look at a bunch of shops since I am new to the area. After looking on Yelp for months and talking to about 40 people who got tattoos done in the area, I finally decided on this one. I went into the shop and started talking to Jose Carranza, who is a very friendly person and enjoyable to talk to. He agreed to do my tattoo, which is a bear with fur that fades into trees. Jose is very skilled at shading and gave me exactly what I wanted in this tattoo, while chatting the whole time, making sure I'm comfortable. He also had a great playlist of 90's rock music playing to make the time go by fasterIf you're looking to get a tattoo done, and want it to look great without a risk of it looking horrible, go see these guys at Wave Street Art Collective. You will not regret it.

My husband shopped around to basically every shop in the area and settled here with Raul. Over the course of a year he got a full sleeve (with cover up) and he fixed and added to the other arm that already had a full sleeve. He did such good work and was SO reasonable I ended up getting one before I left as well.He is super reasonable and uber talented! I recommended him probably 15 times while we were there and still would.

I've known Morris for a while, since his days at Indian ink. He is an amazing artist. I've had a few pieces done by him but yesterday was the first time I've had him work on me at Wave St Art Collective.. I was impressed. Aside from the amazing skill that Morris has, the shop was impressive as well. Everyone's work space was clean and neat, they take great care in providing a clean studio. Another awesome benifit, they're basically right across the street from a large parking garage.. Easy to find a spot. Evertone is very friendly and welcoming. One of the artist that shares a work space with Morris was in the shop hanging out. Super nice guy, very welcoming! I know a lot of people think tattoo studios are full of bikers and gang bangers.. This couldn't be further from the truth. If you're looking for an artist/studio to get some work done, I strongly suggest you give Wave St a shot.

The shop is perfectly situated on Cannery Row - within walking distance of the shops, but not close enough to cause a problem with traffic. The shop itself is filled with art created by the tattoo artists themselves, which gives one an opportunity to peruse through each of their unique styles. I was tattooed by Raul and thought he was very professional. He listened to my idea and gave suggestions on how to make it look it's best. While I was there I met Morris and X , who were both comfortable and laid back in their setting, which made the overall experience a good one. This is certainly not my first tattoo and will not be my last, but I know that when I do get my next one I will definitely be heading back to Wave Street.

The shop is perfectly situated on Cannery Row - within walking distance of the shops, but not close enough to cause a problem with traffic. The shop itself is filled with art created by the tattoo artists themselves, which gives one an opportunity to peruse through each of their unique styles. I was tattooed by Raul and thought he was very professional. He listened to my idea and gave suggestions on how to make it look it's best. While I was there I met Morris and X , who were both comfortable and laid back in their setting, which made the overall experience a good one. This is certainly not my first tattoo and will not be my last, but I know that when I do get my next one I will definitely be heading back to Wave Street.

Great place to get a tattoo done. The people definitely make you feel welcome and it was a fun experience. Estevan really listened to what I wanted and then delivered. I'm very happy with the work ...
Great place to get a tattoo done. The people definitely make you feel welcome and it was a fun experience. Estevan really listened to what I wanted and then delivered. I'm very happy with the work and chatting with him was great. Did I mention he is hottt?! Ok, I guess that shouldn't be part of the review, but I couldn't help it! Seriously though, if you are looking to get some art done, check this place out, you won't be disappointed.
