Good to know before you book
- Realism and portrait work depends heavily on reference quality — clean, well-lit source photos make the biggest difference.
- Colour-heavy pieces benefit from a structured touch-up visit 4–6 weeks after healing.
- Walk-in availability isn't always posted online — a quick phone call is the fastest way to know if they can fit you in today.
- Calendars tend to book several weeks out — reach out as early as possible if you have a target date.

I had the best experience at Fig Leaf recently. Rob made the booking process so easy, was prompt with responses and worked with me to figure out a time in my crazy schedule. Rob recommended Sheli and she was fabulous with bringing my simple and vague vision into life. I have gotten so many compliments and friends wanting to travel to LA for an appointment. The shop is gorgeous with beautiful murals and just a really loving and calm vibes. Super clean too. I don't want to go anywhere else! I hope to be back soon!
I can’t speak highly enough about this studio. The shop is impeccable, the staff are talented and the interiors are beautiful. The work space is clean, sterile and comfortable. I made a group reservation with one of the owners, Rob. He was flexible and helped coordinate our specific date and times with Esther Kim on 11/11. I told my Dad how much I love this studio and he too wants to get tattooed from The Fig Leaf Tattoo. We’ll be back!
I got my first couple tattoos here this past week, and I couldn’t be happier! Becca and Esther did an excellent job and brought my (admittedly kind of vague) ideas to life in such a beautiful way. The interior of the shop is super clean and honestly pretty gorgeous, and everyone at every stage of the process was welcoming and helpful. This was a wonderful way to start my tattoo journey, and I hope to return for years to come! (also super excited about getting my chest piece colored in!!)
