About

A custom tattoo studio on Sunset Cliffs Boulevard with more than twenty years of combined artist experience, Clementine Tattoo works across large-scale Japanese, American traditional, fine line, geometric, black and grey, miniature, illustrative, and permanent-cosmetics formats. Cover-up and repair work is a named specialty, taking old, faded, or regretted tattoos and redrawing them into the client's current preferred aesthetic — a multi-appointment process where post-session healing protocols overlap with the retail and treatment lines at The Rooted Fox a short walk away. Custom design is the default format rather than stock flash, with the consultation treated as the primary first step rather than a fifteen-minute walk-in decision. Permanent cosmetics including brow and lip pigmentation sit alongside the body-art service, drawing a different clientele into the same appointment calendar. Large-scale Japanese back pieces run eight-plus-hour sittings across multiple sessions, a physical endurance format where the bodywork services at Kuba Uchi House of Massage Ocean Beach fit naturally into the between-session recovery window. Multi-session Japanese back pieces with full traditional composition are the studio's most complex project type, structured as a years-long relationship between artist and client rather than a single-appointment transaction.
