Best studio EVER!
Getting a tattoo can be very nerve racking expirence, but my nerves were immediately calmed as soon as I walked through the door of Kraken Queen Studios. It is very clean and has a relaxing vibe. The artists are extremely nice, patient, and accommodating, which just added to my relaxing expirence. Eliza did the most amazing tattoo on my entire thigh, and the line work is just perfect. Ethan did a fine line tattoo on my cousin the same day, and his work is just as amazing! They go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable in every aspect, and I really appreciated how friendly everyone was. Please go here to get tattooed! You absolutely will not be disappointed!

EXCELLENT tattoo studio. Eliza has done a couple of my tattoos (photos of them fresh below) and I have one scheduled with Ethan soon. The studio has a wonderful vibe: super clean, plants, & a fish tank! My tattoos are gorgeous and healed great. I let Eliza run with the design and I only gave general ideas. She blew my thoughts out of the water. I plan on getting all my future tattoos from Kraken Queen Studios. I’ll post again once I have my next tattoo by Ethan to give more info! Highly recommend!

Ethan was fair, professional, talented, and lovely to work and with. He was very mindful of keeping me safe and comfortable and had great ideas to capture my favorite plant. His skill really enabled the subtle beauty of this tattoo to come thru and I am so happy with the piece and the experience overall.
This studio is a welcome addition to the local spots and I am so happy Humboldt has this studio and these artists. Go to them for all things plant, skull, aquatic, and anime.

Best tattoo experience I’ve ever had. Eliza, Ethan, and their business partner Thomas are incredibly accommodating and thoughtful. And their artwork is simply beautiful. Couldn’t be happier with my tattoo.

Travelled almost half the state just to get my first tattoos here and it was worth the wait! Eliza is absolutely wonderful and I wouldn't have trusted any other artist with the level of detail they have for fine-line illustrations. They do their best to make their studio calm and relaxing while also being communicative if you have small last-minute changes you would like to mention. The ripples for my Flamingo weren't included until the very last step before inking and I think it really brings the whole thing together.
I've already booked another appointment and I can't wait for future ones after!

The studio is very clean, professional, and comfortable. Eliza was great at communicating with me through the whole process. I never felt like I was compromising on the design or on the placement of the tattoo. She checked in with me frequently about how I was doing during the tattoo process. The after-care sheet they provide was extremely helpful. Overall, the studio feels like a tattoo spa...
I have gotten tattooed by Eliza twice. Each tattoo healed with no complications. I am still in love with them! I will no doubt be getting another piece done. Highly recommend!
