Chroma Tattoo Studio & Laser Tattoo Removal

10/10 scared of my first tattoo removal, but it wasn't that bad! Looking forward to continuing my next 8 or 10 sessions, I'm already recommending Chroma to my friends for their tattoo removals.

I'm also planning to get both my tragus pierced here, I absolutely love the staff. From the viewpoint of a chef, their customer service is top notch and their ability to work with ANY customer is outstanding.

My laser tech told me all the details for recovery and aftercare required, told me what I was going to experience and she was completely on point with everything.

Much love Chroma, I'm looking forward to being a return client for the next year while we remove all my tattoos so I can be a blank canvas for the new artwork!!

I was very happy with my experience. Everyone was so friendly and I felt very comfortable while there. Louis did a fantastic job on my tattoo. He took his time making sure the placement was right, listened to my ideas, and suggested a color scheme that went well with my skin tone. It came out beautifully and I can’t wait for my next one!

We took my 7 year old daughter to get her ears pierced, after a lot of research we found that the piercer, Kim, was a great fit for our daughter. And, boy did she deliver! Kim, was very patient with our indecisive daughter who wanted all the sparkly earrings, we first narrowed it down and after Kim put each earring up to her ear she finally picked the one she really wanted. Kim went through all the steps and showed exactly what she was going to do before doing it. She made sure we all were happy with the placement of the earrings before she actually pierced. She made sure our daughter was calm and comfortable during the whole process. When Kim did the piercing, my daughter did great, didn’t even flinch.
I would highly recommend Kim at Chroma Tattoo for anyone who is looking for getting their next piercing.
Thank you so much Kim!!!

When my daughter was 14, she created a painting for me. This painting was eerie and original (just the kind of thing I go for) which of course my loving daughter knew. I searched all over for just the right artist to bring my daughter's painting to life.
I found Cam Hubel at Chroma tattoo. His portfolio showed me that he had the skills so I sent an email. Cam and the rest of the Chroma staff treated me like family right from the beginning. They were eager to help me express my unconditional love for my daughter and were always professional.
The day I spent (yes the whole day!) at Chroma will not be one that I soon forget, and I will look back on it fondly. Thanks again to all of you for a wonderful experience!

Kim did an awesome job with my nose piercing and My husband’s brow piercing as well. She was so kind and the shop is very clean and organized. I was really impressed and will be back!!!!

I was nervous about getting two piercings during the same appointment, but Kim made me feel so at ease. She did an excellent job, I love my septum and nostril piercing so much. My experience at Chroma Tattoo was wonderful. The staff was professional and very kind. The establishment was quite clean and that was an absolute plus for me. I have already began to recommend family and friends. If you want great service and a great piercer, Chroma Tattoo is your place and Kim's your woman. 😊

Experience:
I chose Chroma because of its higher reviews, despite it being some 35min away from me. I made the appointment for a septum piercing (my fifth piercing over all) on my birthday and was told about the non-refundable deposit. I had not experienced this before with a tattoo place, but have seen it before many times in the art industry, so was un-phased. Unfortunately, I had an early appointment (an hour after they opened), and while I was just arriving, about 15min before, I got a call that my piercer had to take the day off, and because of the non-refundable deposit ($40 for me, not sure if standard), it was either reschedule with them or eat the $40 (and gas money) and go elsewhere. I was NOWHERE near able to just take the $40 dollar blow, so I disappointedly rescheduled for 4 days later. Not my favorite birthday experience.

Appointment-Take 2 went much smoother. The shop is quaint, and though I always hate seeing stereotyped Native American statues, I did my best not to judge (maybe there's a fellow indigenous artist working there?) and kept myself distracted with the art on the walls. The selection of jewelry seemed rather small, but that might have just been that one display case at the front desk. I was welcomed and met with very friendly attitudes, with Kim Johnson being both kind and thorough. For extra thoroughness, you also get an email going over all the after care stuff, which is nice.

The sternum piercing was a breeze. Typical wait for sterilization of equipment and what not, followed by Kim going through the procedure. She explained the reactions to be aware of, which I appreciated in helping me prepare. The only way I can describe the sensation is that it was a kin to consuming wasabi. My sinuses opened and, between my nose and eyes, fluids were just DRAINING. Kim's bed-side manners were great, constantly checking in if the tears were pain induced, or where my pain tolerance was at. Honestly, it's much like any other fatty-tissue piercing, with the addition of feeling like you constantly have to sneeze for a while.

Overall, a wonderful birthday gift to myself. Love the piercing, satisfied with Kim's work, and all around happy, despite the unfortunate start. 9/10, def recommend.

This shop is beautiful and very upscale. Pay attention when driving to it because it sits off to the back somewhat. A little more expensive than your run-of-the-mill shops but this place is worth every dime. Louis Vo is the bomb. I like the fact that he listens and he is very patient to come up with the proper artwork. Don't get so caught up in the fame of those you will see mentioned on Yelp because I almost did and they had no openings. Louis Vo did an awesome job with my yin yang tattoo and he tried to clean up my Betty Betty Boop tattoo that already was on my arm.

I was in Chroma yesterday for a 6-hour tattoo with Louis, and it turned out beautifully - I had a loose idea of what I wanted, and the placement/design he came up with work perfectly. I would 100% recommend him to anyone who is a fan of fine line style tattoos; he’s clearly got an amazing eye for detail and took the time to ensure that every tiny aspect of the tattoo was perfect. The shop itself was clean and professional, and I think the pricing was totally fair when you consider the quality of the tattoo. If you want a beautifully designed, well-executed, one-of-a-kind tattoo I would totally recommend Chroma and Louis!

My first time at Chroma, and I will be back! The staff was friendly and professional. The shop was spotless and everyone wore masks. My artist Cam was fantastic. From my consultation to application he listened, he was creative, and he applied a flawlessly beautiful tattoo. I went in with a vague notion of what I wanted and Cam exceeded all expectations. I have over 10 tattoos and this amazing skull with flowers Is by far my new favorite, not to mention, technically perfect. I can’t say enough good things about Chroma and Cam. Makes me want 10 more.
