LUXE INK TATTOO — Local services in Temecula

All I can say is wow. After being denied time and time again by other shops about a cover up on my hand, I was beginning to think all hope was lost. Then my wife and I were at chick fil a on Saturday and figured why not try Luxe. We walked in and we’re immediately greeted by Patrick (the owner/artist). Genuinely a class dude. As I was describing what I wanted he immediately displayed genuine confidence in what everyone else in Temecula wanted nothing to do with. He was even able to schedule me for less than a month out.

The day of the tattoo I walked in and was expecting to have to wait like at most other shops for them to print out the stencil and get their station ready etc. Not here. Again we walked in and there was Patrick with release waivers in hand ready to go. He walked me back to the room (not just a table in a room full of weirdly nosey other artists) and we went over the plan. I brought up an idea he had and without hesitation altered the tattoo to fit my idea while still making the cover up work. Then we started the tattoo.

There’s a decent sized TV with every streaming service you can think of to make the time pass. I’ve had 5+ hour sessions in the past that made me feel like brain dead ground beef but at the end of this it hadn’t even felt like close to 5 hours.

And on top of all these great service quality’s, the tattoo came out GREAT. You can tell that he is very experienced and cares about his craft. I would recommend anyone to go to this shop and visit Patrick whether it be an 18th birthday present or someone who’s completely covered but just wants to fill in that last...

AMAZING! Absolutely amazing experience! The best tattoo experience I've had thus far and I have about 15 tattoos all sizes and styles from many places around the world. This studio is not only clean and beautiful, but the rooms are private, they offer water and snacks, let you pick out whatever you want to watch on their smart TV, and they give you these sweet little after care satchels with lotion and oil and piece of candy. I mean they really go all out! And it's not just the studio...it's the energy of the staff, the artist and his wife. What an adorable, kind, and compassionate couple! Patrick took his time with my drawing and made all the changes I wanted with an attitude of providing a service, making sure I got what I wanted. He was very professional and like I said the studio is very sanitary and the tattoo process from start to finish was as well. I could not be happier with my experience and I only wish I lived closer so I could go back for more art. Patrick did a great job with the dot work and the fine lines. He was extremely thorough. And lastly his wife Athena is such a sweetheart! You will not meet another tattoo host that's kinder than her. She is so down to earth and we had great conversations while I waited. I highly recommend this studio to any and everyone. You will not be...

Terrible communication and follow through. I originally had an appointment scheduled for March 12, I went in a month prior for a consultation and to give a $100 deposit. Morning of March 12 I texted my tattoo artist, Patrick to confirm the appointment. He then texted me back to tell me that unfortunately my appointment for that day was going to have to be canceled due to supplies not being delivered. I completely understood and agreed to rescheduled for a later date, I waited a week and a half before he even attempted to reach Out to reschedule me I was the one that had to text him and ask again, still nothing finally after a third attempt to schedule I politely asked to receive my deposit back and cancel the appointment, he proceeded to apologize and asked to make it right I agreed again because I know life happens. But here we are it is now officially June, three months after my original appointment and not a word from Patrick or an attempt to return my money, it’s not about the money it’s about the lack of communication and...
