Our Story

Born on Lincoln Ave,
Made for San Jose

Pura Tinta Tattoo Studio opened its doors in the heart of San Jose with a simple belief: everyone deserves a space where artistry and comfort coexist. We're not a chain, not a franchise — we're your neighbors, your local studio, your ink home.

Whether you're coming in for your first delicate piece or a full-sleeve commission, our artists treat every session like a collaboration. We listen, we sketch, we refine — until the design feels exactly like you.

Every piece starts with a conversation. We sketch, revise, and perfect your design until it's exactly what you envisioned.

Client Love

What San Jose Is Saying

Real words from real clients who trusted us with their art.

I walked in nervous about my first tattoo and left feeling like a million bucks. The artist took time to understand exactly what I wanted and delivered beyond my expectations.

Maria K.

First-Time Client

Pura Tinta turned my old faded tattoo into something completely unrecognizable — in the best way. The cover-up work is seriously next level.

James R.

Cover-Up Client

Not just a tattoo shop — the beauty and hair services are incredible too. Got my brows done and a fresh cut in the same visit. So convenient!
