UFF Tattoo & Piercing
About us

A tattoo shop that's actually easy to walk into.

Sterile shop on 6th Ave run by people who treat first-timers and sleeve veterans the same. We'd rather lose a sale than do a tattoo we don't believe in.

First, we design it with you

You start with a free consultation with a designer — someone whose whole job is to listen, sketch, and get your idea right. No deposit, no pressure to commit. You leave with a custom design you actually love (or you walk away, no hard feelings).

Then an artist brings it to life

Once you love the design, one of our artists does the tattoo. Two people, each great at their part — that's how you get a piece that's both well-designed and well-executed. Piercings? Just walk in.

The shop

We're at 1043 6th Ave, San Diego, CA 92101, in the Gaslamp Quarter — open 11am–9pm every day. Single-use sterile needles every time, tools sterilized in a hospital-grade autoclave, and a studio registered under California's Safe Body Art Act. Walk-ins welcome, first-timers especially.
