I go to Cory at Lucky 7 TaT in Kings Beach. Great place and great people. He has a great eye for color and has a great hand for not making it feel as if the tat gun is beating into you.

I have had all my work done by Pinky Yun of Dragon Tattoo in San Jose on West San Carlos.

Been going there for 20 years not, and he is GREAT. I have some pix at the office I will post up when I get in later today.
