Studio 21 Tattoo Gallery

I walked in on a Sunday afternoon with an idea in mind for an ornamental piece on my forearm and their receptionist was able to schedule me that same day with Zaynah. She was so kind and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. The whole experience was amazing and Zaynah is such a talented artist, I love how my tattoo turned out! I would definitely recommend going to her and I will be back to fill up my arm with more designs like this.

FRANK Oh. My. God. Where do I even begin with this absolute fever dream of an experience. I went to frank for a tattoo thinking I was about to embark on a meaningful, spiritual journey of self-expression. What I actually embarked on was a psychological thriller directed by someone who once saw a tattoo machine in a YouTube ad and said, “Yeah, I can do that.” First of all, this man’s studio looked like a storage unit that lost a custody battle. The “vibe” was somewhere between abandoned dentist office and haunted vape shop. There was a single folding chair that sounded like it was begging for mercy every time I breathed. Now let’s talk about the tattoo. I actually had to take a lap around the studio because WHAT DO YOU MEAN THAT’S ON MY BODY FOREVER AND IT’S PERFECT??? The lines are so clean they look AI-generated. The shading? So smooth it feels illegal. The placement? Spiritual. Cosmically aligned. If I stand at the right angle I’m pretty sure it unlocks inner peace. I keep catching myself staring at it like it’s a new pet. I have shown it to strangers. I have adjusted my outfits to make sure it’s visible. I moisturize it like it’s royalty. If it asked me for rent, I would pay it. The pain? Worth it. The adrenaline? Elite. The emotional attachment? Concerning. This tattoo has changed my personality. I now say things like “yeah, my artist…” as if I’ve been part of an underground art collective for years. I have zero chill about it. If you make eye contact with me for longer than two seconds, I will show you. Five stars for talent. Five stars for making me question reality. I walked in mildly nervous and walked out feeling like I had just been branded by a mysterious but benevolent art deity. Would I go back? Absolutely. Would I understand him any better? Probably not. Do I care? Not even slightly. Anyway, 10/10. No notes. I would absolutely let this happen to me again.

I am absolutely blown away by the cover-up tattoo Josh did for me! I had an old piece that I've wanted gone for years—it was faded from multiple laser removal sessions, and I thought it was completely unsalvageable. Josh worked a true miracle. ​ ​From the initial consultation, Josh was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited about the challenge. He spent time understanding what I wanted in the new design while also expertly assessing the best way to hide the old tattoo. He talked me through his strategy, including color saturation and line work, which immediately put me at ease. His confidence is well-earned! ​ ​The final result is simply stunning. The new design is vibrant, perfectly saturated, and the detail is incredible. The old tattoo is completely invisible. Seriously, you can't even tell there was anything under it. It’s not just covered; it’s been transformed into a beautiful, brand-new piece of art that I am proud to show off. ​ ​If you have an old tattoo you regret or one that is dark and you think is impossible to cover, you must go see Josh. He is a phenomenal artist and a true master of the cover-up. The studio environment was clean, comfortable, and the entire experience was fantastic. ​Thank you, Josh, for giving me a piece I truly love!
