A private second-floor tattoo, piercing, and Reiki studio run as a women-owned, LGBTQ+-owned single-artist room, Goddess Temple Tattoo Studio operates behind the red door at 1039 University Ave Unit A in Hillcrest. The one-client-at-a-time model keeps sessions on a private-studio schedule with no walk-in bullpen and no shared booth rotation, the same solo-artist operating structure that defines the custom-work chair at Buju Tattoo. Beyond custom ink, the studio cross-trains the same practitioner in body piercing and energy work, layering a Reiki practice onto what is otherwise a tattoo bench — a modality blend uncommon for Hillcrest ink houses. Gender-neutral restroom, transgender-safe-space policy, and appointment-only access shape the studio environment to protect client confidentiality during multi-hour pieces, a private-room protocol aligned with the consent-forward workflow at Inkedbloom Tattoo Studio. The most complex project the studio handles is long-session custom blackwork and fine-line pieces paired with pre-session and post-session Reiki as a grounding protocol for clients tattooing through grief, transition, or trauma recovery.
