Your story becomes art—a reflection of who you are, shaped with intention and brought to life through timeless design.

When we created UPSIDE, we saw the need to re-cultivate the tattoo experience; to place focus on the client and their transformation.
We envisioned a getaway where people can have full creative expression of their body.
Our mission is to create tattoos that lead to a meaningful experience and conversation. By providing a calm, meditative environment, we are able to minimize the noise and distractions we face on a daily basis and offer the opportunity for our clients to take care of their body, mind and spirit.

Hear what our clients have to say about the artwork and experience at Upside Tattoo.

"I don’t even know where to begin. I have had 45 hours of tattoo work done from a handful of shops. My experience with Andy Pho and Upside Tattoo is beyond superior to any other time spent under a needle. I can’t even call Upside a tattoo shop. This is a full-blown facility. This is an experience. It’s a masterpiece work of art. Andy Pho and his team have done something that I believe has never been done before and Andy has set a new standard for the tattoo industry."

"My experience at Upside Tattoo tops every shop I’ve been to. I can’t recommend this place enough, especially if you’re looking for an artist to really understand the concept you’re going for, while also searching for someone to connect with. My artist is Andy Pho. He has the most efficient way of tattooing, and will be most thorough with the details of your idea."

"It was a grueling 8-hour session (my first that long), but the artwork is spectacular!! I also really enjoyed the zen atmosphere of the shop! "
