I got my first tattoo of my dogβs paw print with his name by Rebecca. He passed away October 29, 2017 π. Rebecca was great. She is sweet and friendly and a professional. I love my tattoo and it was a great experience. Everyone there is really nice and friendly. Itβs a clean place. I plan on getting another tattoo to represent my brother who passed away. If you plan on getting a tattoo I highly recommend Salvation South Tattoo Gallery in Long Beach. Read Less

If you're in the market for a tattoo - RUN, do not walk to Salvation South!! And make sure you ask for Rebecca...This shop is clean, reasonably priced, and the staff has a good vibe. I had two tatts that were done years ago way out east. I'd been toying with the idea of a third and started following this shop on social media a couple years ago - since I pass by it just about everyday in July and August. When I finally got myself together I called asking for Taryn - but with a wait of over 6 months, I happily set up a consult with Rebecca and WOW, best move ever!! Rebecca is talented and professional. She worked with my ideas - and made them better with her abilities. My piece only took an hour but it felt like about 20 minutes, as Rebecca was kind, funny, and personable as she worked. I couldn't be happier - this tattoo is now the favorite of my three and I can't wait to back for another...THANK YOU Rebecca and Salvation South!! Read Less

I have been going to Salvation Tattoo for my tattoos since they opened their first shop in Oceanside, NY over 10 years ago. It is a family affair, my wife gets her tattoos there and my son gets his tattoos there. Their prices are reasonable and the work is always top notch. No matter where I go people stop to ask me about my ink and where I got it. My first tattoo by the owner is over 10 years old and looks like it is brand new. It is the most professional shop I have ever been in and I have been getting tattoos for the last 30 years. I would recommend this shop to anyone looking for impeccable artwork and a professional experience. Go see Ryan and the gang. Read Less
