1st Amendment Tattoo

Came in with a poorly aging tattoo and requested an improvement. I wanted a tree. No added color only simple ink. Anthony Tellez designed really pretty art that I will have for the remainder of my life. The shop was fun and respectful. I am adding my pictures to the other photos. Thanks!

Rob is amazing! He has done two tattoos for me and not only is he a true artist but his use of color is incredible. He did a piece on my back almost 3 years ago and I still get compliments on the color. I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else to immortalized a family member in a tattoo for me.

Will is amazing and his shop feels like home. Best experience you will have and only artist my boyfriend is willing to trust. Come to 1^st amendment and you will not be disappointed.

Amazing artwork being pumped out of this shop. Been going to Will for years, not a single regret on anything he has done (2 sleeves, plus a few large pieces). All the artists are talented, unique and will design you a custom tattoo, applied properly with clean work. Thank you 1^st Amendment tattoo — cheers

Will and sailor are both awesome guys. My husband has had work done by sailor. And I have had work done by Will. Both experiences were great! First the shop is clean. The tattoo artists are knowledgable and also very friendly. I have had two pieces done by Will. My first piece was a «sisters» «best friend» tattoo. He did exactly what we wanted. And after it healed without any problems we both look at it every day loving it. We went back and my sister got a Hummingbird on her foot she adores it and he listened to her wants and did such an amazing job. My second one was a purple rose on my wrist I get compliments on it every day! Everything has healed so well and me and my family are extremely pleased!
Thanks Will
Ps I’m already back again for more rose work

Best shop in Simi by far. Artisits do excellent work. Clean strait lines, superb shading and vivid colors. Four of us all left 100% satisfied. Don’t waste your time checking out those other girly shops. 1^st Amendment is the only place I trust.

I was shocked that my tattoo was so affordable because Riq did such an amazing job :) I receive compliments on the details very often.

1^st amendment is a top notch outfit. Rob and Will are both very proficient in all forms of tattooing ! I have been going there for over 6 years and have always been totally satisfied every time ! Great pricing and the best atmospher in town.

Don’t typically write reviews, however after my experience and reading the two negative reviews, I felt compelled to write this one.
I was recommended to Rob by a friend, and have also heard good things about the shop in general through word of mouth.
First off, to the MORON who got a lip tattoo, WTF were you thinking, you got a tattoo in a moist area and you expected it to not fade away??? Do some research, the majority of people who get lip tattoos don’t have good results and they typically don’t last long with MANY of the people getting them experiencing the SAME THING YOU DID. Then you expect a free touch up? Please pass me whatever the hell you’re smoking because it MUST be some good stuff.
Secondly, Steven, they are free to charge what ever they want, I have seen plenty of their work in person and in their portfolio’s and it’s quality. Is it the best out there, no, but it’s damn sure a notch above average and NOT $ 100 dolar art.
People, PLEASE keep in mind, this isn’t about what YOU think they should charge, you’re paying for artwork, price is very much so based on quality of the work along with sit time. Sure Stephanie probably could have gone somewhere else and paid less, maybe even less then $ 100 but would the quality of her work be near as good? I can assure you not. There is a few other places in Simi that garner much attention, I will leave them unamed, but two in particular pop into my head and they would NEVER get my business, when you get a bad vibe just by looking at the people in a shop, that’s never good.
Now, onto Rob and Will, great dudes. Rob is very much BLUNT and straight forward, he doesn’t mix words and will be flat out honest with you. I prefer this over someone who sugar coats something as to not «hurt my feelings». Some may call this being an asshole, I call it being honest which I applaud. Rob took his time to explain to me the ins and outs of the tattoo I was thinking of getting. After making up my mind a deposit was put down and an appointment made. Even though I changed my mind the last minute of what I wanted done, Rob couldn’t have been nicer. Granted I just wanted some simple text and it wasn’t like I changed my mind after he spent hours drawing something up (which I would not recommend doing). We sat down and he got to work. He was easy to converse with and was professional during the sitting. Will had a customer while Rob was doing my arm and I observed Will to be just as accomodating to his client as Rob was too me.
Overall the experience was a great one, and my tattoo turned out great. Both Will and Rob were great to deal with. Should I decide on more ink, I will be back to First Amendment.

I went here yesterday to get a tattoo on my arm. I had made an appointment with Riq the weekend before. There was only 2 guys in the shop the two times I went in, but each time everyone was really friendly and helpful. I got the silhouette of 7 crows on the side of my forearm, and Riq did an amazing job and I got exactly what I wanted. He’s got 2 new customers with my husband and I. I will go back the next time I have the desire for a new tattoo. Nice, talented people work here and the price is very reasonable for the quality of work they do.

Got my first tattoo done here! ROB IS AMAZING! He did a quote on my ribcage, and did a GREAT JOB! I would recommend anyone, but if i go back i’m definitely asking for Rob. Only reason I am leaving out the last star is because it was pricey. $ 150 for «Not all those who wander are lost … «but I was really nervous and wanted to make sure i recieved quality work on my first tattoo, so I decided to go here and pay the price and I SURE DID receive excellent customer service!
Great skill and quality. If you want professional work that will turn out EXACTLY like you want it too, come here! A+
