From the business
"West Seattle Tattoo is a new shop in the heart of West Seattle on California Ave SW. We do not offer piercing services at the moment. We are currently a smaller but very experienced team of tattoo artists with a wide range of styles between us. The two owners (Daniel & Julie) along with the third artist (Woods) that make up the team all worked right here in WS before COVID-19 started closing down shops. We are picking up where we left off.

I've gotten two tattoos so far at West Seattle Tattoo, specifically from Julie. Everyone at the shop is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Julie's incredibly talented with color, and her designs are super cute. She's great to work with, and the tattoos heal very well over time. I 100% recommend WST for getting a tattoo and will definitely be returning myself in the future. Included tattoos are fresh.

I had a tattoo done with Julie and it's amazing! Such bright colorwork and tons of detail. It's healed really well so far, the picture is the fresh tattoo. The shop was clean and everyone was very friendly. Julie was able to do the entire tattoo in one 5-hour session. I would highly recommend this shop!

I had such an amazing experience with Julie here! She is a talented artist, and I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by how fast, professional, and gorgeous my tattoo turned out. She was willing to talk about color changes from the original flash which was so nice and very helpful in getting everything just how I wanted it. Highly recommended!

Julie was so welcoming right from the start. She has a great spot with a chair in the front window. The place is easy to find using google maps. I came from out of town and it was well worth the hours of travel from CA to Seattle. Julieβs tattoos look exactly like her virtual drawings - itβs crazy! She has a gentle hand so it doesnβt hurt too bad. She was able to make a couple quick color revisions on the spot. I loved my experience and my tattoo has healed beautiful. Itβs been over 6 months and still looks fresh. The colors are vibrant and pop, she even put a glitter sparkle effect on some of the hearts.

If you live in West Seattle or just visiting and looking for a great place to get a tattoo, well look no further! My best friend and I were walk-in customers on a beautiful Sunday afternoon and both walked away very happily satisfied with our tattoos! Professional, knowledgeable, and friendly artists! The atmosphere was great! IMO the playlist of music was amazing! Highly recommend!!

I had such an amazing experience at West Seattle Tattoo and with Julie. I'm a few months out from getting my tattoo with her, and everything from getting the tattoo itself to the healing experience was fabulous.
I came in as a walk-in to get my very first tattoo, not really knowing what to expect, and Julie graciously worked with me on adding her personal spin on a design I had in mind. She was patient with me on deciding placement and walking me through what to expect throughout the process. In the end she did a wonderful job that was quicker and much less painful than I expected. I also followed the aftercare instructions to a T, and my tattoo healed wonderfully - it never even got itchy as it healed! A few months later my tattoo has settled nicely. The colors and lines are still bold and crisp, and I (still!) can't stop admiring it. I highly recommend this shop, especially Julie. I can't wait to come back again. Thanks for a great experience!

Had a very pleasant experience here! Julie was amazing and has given me a beautiful piece. I am quite happy that I decided to get one of her flash designs! Itβs super cute and I love how she was totally ok with my suggestions about color. I am already looking at her other flash designs. I appreciate that she was patient with me and my embarrassing twitching leg, even though she was tattooing my forearm. Love the tattoo shop aesthetic and style! Every one was super friendly. The atmosphere here is what every shop should be.

Daniel and Julie are amazing people and incredible artists! Iβve been good friends with Daniel for many years and heβs always stood out as an outstanding artist. I have a lot of work from him.
I highly recommend this shop and I would trust any artist here to do my tattoos because I completely trust Daniel and Julieβs standards and professionalism.

My boyfriend and I went in for some walk in tattoos. Super cute place! And a great staff. I ended up getting faint and sick, I was so embarrassed, but they were lovely and patient! They also sent me home with a little care package which I have never received at another tattoo shop! Oh, and I love my tattoo!! Great line work.

I had an excellent result from working with Woods Bramble at West Seattle Tattoo. He deeply understands Japanese tattoos and worked with me to produce an outcome that met all my expectations. He's very fast, precise, and has a great sense of artistry. I wholeheartedly recommend him and will definitely go to him again for future tattoos.
