I am posting my 5 star review to say I'm happy with paragon tattoo. I got my piercing by Terry/Cherry (spelling??!!). She made me feel comfortable throughout the process before, during & after my piercing. She answered all my questions thoroughly & patiently. At the time of my review here, I am complete with my 3 month healing process. I had absolutely no problems/complications.I highly recommend this shop & Terry/Cherry (spelling??!!) Read Less

Went down yesterday to participate in their annual toy drive for the first time and it was great. My sister has gone for 3 years and each one of hers is really really nice so I definitely needed to stop by and after yesterday I certainly will be coming back if they have another one next year. The deal was you brought in a toy (I think it said like a $20 value) and you donated it and you got to choose from several pages of pre designed stencils for a $20 tattoo. Emmanuel (Instagram @e.loc.tattoo) did mine and I couldn't be happier with it. Read Less

I've gone to Cherry for the 2 nostril piercings in the past and just went in for my septum on Wednesday. She talks you through the entire process of piercing so you know exactly what's going to happen next. She makes sure your comfortable, and it's awesome that the shop if incredibly clean every time I went in. She keeps you informed with How long it's going to take to heal and after care procedures. If I decide to get a piercing again, I'll only go here for cherry. And I'll continue to recommend her to people that want a piercing. Read Less

I got my tattoo done by Jayvion about 3 months ago on my side and he was very helpful and patient. I was debating placement and size alottt but he really helped me out and all went well and I loveee it! Read Less

Got my tragus done by Cherry and WOW she has got to be the friendliest piercer I've ever encountered. She helped calmed my nerves because I was super nervous and answered all of my questions. She explained how she was going to pierce my tragus step by step and guided me with breathing when putting the needle in which helped a lot! The shop also looked really clean and had tons of cool art pieces (tattoo designs maybe?) hanging around which is a plus :) I am impressed by the service here and I would definitely come back if I want to get another piercing done!! Btw: for payments, they take cash only but there's an ATM in the shop (with a $2 charge) which is super convenient! Read Less

Best experience ever!! I had a hideous tattoo and Old Mike did such a beautiful piece for me to cover it up. I highly recommend this place. The shop was clean and not shady at all. The staff was super cool and made you feel at home. I will definitely be going back for more!! Read Less

Went for some ear piercings with friends. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. Cherry did all three of us. She was beyond friendly and her knowledge surprised me. She could tell I stretched my ears in the past even though they've healed. She takes her time to ensure the placement is right, and that you are satisfied with where she will be piercing before starting. My past experience is getting my ears done at Claire's in the mall so this was like a luxury lol. I got my lobes done and my friends got conch, daith, and 3 on the flat. More daring than me.Cherry was thorough with after care and made sure we knew she was available for any questions are concerns in the future. Read Less

I got an amazing piercing by Cherry! She re-pierced my philtrum and made it look even better than it was the first time I got it done somewhere else.She was super knowledgeable about different types of piercings and after care. 10/10 would recommend this place for any piercings! Read Less

Excellent customer service and very professional. Prices are very reasonable and it's very easy to walk right in and tell an artist what you are looking to get. Me and wife would recommend this shop over all others. Read Less

Came in for a cartilage piercing, got pierced by Fitz. He checked with me to make sure I was satisfied with the placement before he pierced my ear. The piercing was quick and aftercare instructions were simple. My cartilage piercing hasn't given me any problems and is healing well, I couldn't be more happy! Even though they take walk ins, a tip is to call ahead of time to be sure a piercer is in. Read Less

I happened upon this place a few years back when I was looking to get a new tattoo at a quality shop. I was helped by the owner, Julius Vargas. I showed him a picture of the idea I had for my lower leg and foot, and he immediately went to work. I came back a few hours later and was very impressed with his design. It was unique and just what I wanted. The process was easy and I was very happy with my tattoo. Since then I have also gotten a thigh piece as well as an under-breast piece, both which I love. I will definitely continue business with this shop! Read Less

Got my septum piercing done by Cherry about 3 months ago!The process itself was was quick. Since I'm sensitive, it hurt a bit and made my eyes water but it was fast. Cherry did a wonderful job on my friend's nostril piercing and my other friend's industrial. We all had a great experience here.Cherry was very informative about the process and also had papers with cleaning instructions. My septum has fully healed since September 3rd. I totally recommend it here! Read Less

Definitely my favorite tattoo shop! Super chill vibes, great work. The pictures attached are all on my left arm. All done by Old Mike (Michael Johnson.) I have other smaller tattoos, which I didn't attach, that were done by other people in the shop. Those are nice too, just don't have any pics of them. Lol. I've also been pierced by Cherry and she's always so sweet and informative. Prices for tattoos and piercings aren't bad. Always keep in mind that good work cost a lot more than bad work. You pay for what you get. Thank you guys for everything Read Less

Dope spot! If you're looking for a super good piercer, Cherry is the one. She is especially knowledgeable and chill, makes it such a smooth ride. She talks you through the whole thing which is reassuring, and she shares all you need to know to care for your piercings properly. Went in to get nipple piercings today with my friend and I am stoked about how they came out! Thanks Cherry!! Love them. Read Less

Super clean and trendy ambiance, staff was really friendly and helpful with after piercing instructions. Went with a friend for a belly piercing and it came out looking beautiful. The price was $30 so pretty affordable and it included the jewelry. Would definitely go back to get another piercing. Read Less

Went there as a walk-in and Michael was able to complete a tattoo that someone else did at a completely different shop and I am 100% satisfied. The atmosphere was nice and the staff were professional and polite. I asked Michael for his opinion and he was a great collaborator. Im not a person that is really "into" tattoos, but if I get another one I will head back to this studio. Read Less

Had an amazing experience there. My husband got his first tattoo there and Julius was so gentle and patient. Extremely clean and uniquely decorated.  Staff was friendly and very reasonable prices. I would recommend Julius to anyone wanting a tattoo. Read Less

I had to find a new piercer after my old one moved shops and Im so glad I came across this shop thanks to yelp . I had a couple of piercings done by cherry in the same visit. She was the coolest and most educated piercer i have encountered. She gave me a bunch of details and took her time explaining the whole process from start to finish! Deff going back when I want some more jewelry. I felt no pain w her hands lol Read Less

A year ago i went to the paragon tattoo shop with my sister and friend. The shop inside is pretty cool. The tattoo work i got on me was horrible. I got an arrow tattoo and a heart done by Jayvoin. 80 for both. I posted the pics of my aarow and heart tattoo. My aarrow tattoo is so ugly the shading is horrible the lines are cricket. You cant even notice the detail he did on my aarow because he shaded it in too dark. My heart is perfect on the left side nice and round but on the right side of my heart it looks a little square shape.The sad part was i went in to get a cover up of my little red heart i had. I should have let my red heart tattoo alone. Read Less

I had previously went there for a tattoo and I had a great experience..until I tried to get pierced. I went to go get my tongue done 3 days ago and up until yesterday,my life had been hell. The self proclaimed"professional" piercer had me lay down when she did it. Having been laid down,it was put in at an angle so when I talked,the piercing slanted into my tounge. Apparently she also pierced a nerve because my right side of my jaw was also in pain. Be cautious about her! Read Less

Today I got my nipples pierced by Cherokee . She was amazing. I was very nervous but she made it very easy . She was very informative very gentle very nice made it very comforting she made the experience the best experience I have ever had at a tattoo shop. she explained everything to me well  and made sure I understood every step of the process which made me very comfortable if your in the Moreno Valley area and want a piercing done contact her at this shop she is amazing Read Less

Amazing experience getting pierced by Alan. Very informative and made me feel super comfortable in an awkward situation. Super honest and quick. Gave me his input on a tattoo I have to make it really stand out and give it some dimension. I will be returning. THANKS AGAIN!! Read Less

I didn't have the best experience with one tattoo many years ago, so I was apprehensive about coming back, but I did, and Jayvion did a tattoo on my arm in Arabic for me and did such an amazing job. This language and writing isn't easy and has to be done right and he did it so well that my next one will be by him for sure! Also the owner is really nice and helpful, didn't make me feel stupid for coming back and asking a question about my tattoo and gave me good advice. Thank you both! Your shop and people are great! Read Less

Went in last night for my appointment with Julius, the owner. I had sent him a picture of what I wanted prior to the appointment and when I arrived he told me he had drawn something similar to what I had originally wanted and I just fell in love with the design and decided to go with his after a couple minor changes to it. He's very professional and extremely talented. The shop is well decorated, very clean, and the atmosphere and his employees made me feel welcomed and comfortable. Defiantly recommending this shop to all my friends. Read Less

Came here a week ago for a piercing...Cherry was amaze balls. Super gentle and relaxed. Very soft and sweet. I was nervous at first but it was over so fast I didn't even realize we were done. The shop is amazing and fun, I'll definitely be back. Read Less

My boyfriend and I came hear to get piercings. Fitz did my nose piercing as well as my boyfriends industrial. He was very quick and professional. I like that he didn't drag on the process but saying he'll count to three and all that. The quicker the better. Gave us great care instructions and we will definitely come back for more piercings and maybe some tattoos. Place is very clean and staff is amazing. Best shop in town! Read Less

After searching for a tattoo artist found Paragon tattoo shop and when I called I spoke to the owner Julius he went out of his way to schedule me to see him on that same day! He not was extremely professional and made me feel welcomed but he did an exceptional job on my new tattoo. I am extremely happy with his work and will definitely will be returning to get more tattoos. Thanks Julius hope to return soon you're awesome!! Read Less

So I decided to get my nose pierced and got the courage to do it. Went inside of the tattoo shop and was warmly greeted by the body piercer Cherry. Cherry was awesome, took her time to explain the process, and was very gentle. Cherry also explained the after care of the piercing. The shop is very clean and meticulous and you won't be disappointed. All products that were used were new and sterile. I am a wimp when it comes to pain but for whatever reason the piercing did not hurt!! Thanks Cherry!!! Read Less

I get all my tattoo work from Julius, and he is extremely professional and talented.  The shop is cozy and has great design and is spacious.  I really like coming here, because it makes me feel relaxed.  The tattoo artists  are all sick!!!!!  I need to come back soon Read Less

This place is SUPER CLEAN which is a plus, my friends and I came to get matching tattoos and Julius did all four of us. At 1st he was a bit quiet but once he start working he opened up and made us super comfortable. I will be back for more. Read Less

I always book with Emmanuel and he's been amazing every time! He's extremely talented and he's easy to work with! He can do traditional, portraits, color no color or just step out of the box. He's a badass mofo Read Less

I've gotten a touch up and a new tattoo here. Great line work. Reasonable prices. Very clean shop. Friendly, laid back environment. Got the left side of my lower lip pierced and it was over quickly and almost painless. It healed well. I will go back for more piercings in the future and am getting a forearm tattoo sometime in the next week. I will definitely keep going back. Read Less

Fitz did an amazing job on a tattoo concept for me and my wife. We came in with a concept and some art work and he used it to give us a truly unique and beautiful piece. Fitz was very professional and I love the detail with the black and greys. I've FINALLY  found a great artist in Mo Val.Also the shop is very professional and clean. This is important to me to have a location for "grown ups". My wife said, "I finally got my first bad ass tattoo!" Read Less
