    "Amazing tattoo shop! You really feel welcome and feel the love as you get your work done. Drew was so great with working with my accommodations and being so great while giving the tattoo! I will definitely be back for future ones!"

    "I had an absolutely incredible experience at Sanctuary Inc in Chandler, Arizona. As a 63-year-old getting my very first tattoo, I’ll admit I was pretty nervous walking in — but Cesar (CJ) immediately put me at ease. The shop has a genuinely client-friendly culture, and you can feel right away that they take pride in creating a welcoming, comfortable environment. CJ was fantastic from start to finish. He was calm, patient, and incredibly accommodating. He explained the entire process in detail — every step, every sensation, and everything I could do to stay comfortable and minimize any discomfort. His professionalism and kindness honestly made all the difference for me. And most importantly, I was extremely pleased with the detailed quality of the tattoo — it met my expectations in every way. Sanctuary Tattoo has done a phenomenal job of building a space that’s both fun and relaxing. If you’re considering a tattoo, especially if you’re a bit nervous like I was, I can’t recommend them — and especially CJ — highly enough."

    "I can’t say enough good things about this shop. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. Devin took great care of me from start to finish. I sent him my ideas, and not only did he go above and beyond, he made the design even better than what I had in mind. He kept me updated throughout the process and was very patient with me even when I asked him to swap the colors around several times. He made sure we were both happy with the final look. He’s very light-handed, and I had almost zero pain even after eight hours. He was extremely clean, had amazing attention to detail, and really took his time. I can’t thank him enough for his hard work and dedication. I’ll definitely be back for more work in the near future."

    "Cesar really snapped on this tattoo. The detail, the shading, the way everything flows together came out even better than I pictured in my head. You can tell he actually cares about what he is doing, not just getting you in and out. What I liked most is how chill the whole process was. He listens, gives solid input, and makes sure everything is lined up perfectly before he even starts. He is super easy to talk to and just a good dude all around. I walked in for a tattoo and left feeling like I made a friend. I am seriously proud to wear this piece. Appreciate you bro, you killed it."

CJ is a pleasure to work with and a consummate professional who takes extra care and concern every step of the way. His work is stunning and I’m so proud to have my newest piece from him! Coverups are NOT easy and he has given me a tattoo I will cherish for a very long time. I’ve gotten many tattoos at shops all over the valley and I’ve got to say, this one is my favorite.

    "Phenomenal Experience with CJ at Sanctuary Ink, Chandler AZ! I cannot recommend Sanctuary Ink enough. From the minute I walked through the door, the entire team was incredibly welcoming and accommodating. They immediately set a tone that was both highly professional and completely comfortable. The studio itself is top-tier. It is impeccably clean, which instantly puts your mind at ease. It's clear the staff takes great pride in maintaining a sterile and organized environment. My artist, CJ, was absolutely fantastic. Not only is his artistry truly outstanding. I am thrilled with the final piece. Everyone was also wonderfully accommodating and patient throughout the entire design and tattooing process. CJ listened carefully to my ideas, offered great suggestions, and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. CJ is a true professional and an amazing talent. If you’re looking for a new tattoo in the Phoenix/Chandler area, book your appointment with Sanctuary Ink!"

My artist ceaser took the time to listen to what I wanted, gave honest feedback, and ended up making it look even better than I imagined. The place is spotless, the vibe is creative, and the work speaks for itself clean lines, solid shading, perfect placement. Definitely my go-to spot now for tattoos."

    "Thank you Sanctuary Ink. For giving my "neighborhood" tattoo some new life. Couldn't be happier. Still needing one more session. Thank you again CJ Huge shout out to Drew. He took a pic from 1982, and helped capture a flower that was on my mom's blouse. She'll forever be with me. I couldn't imagine what this flower would look like... but I believe he did something amazing. Im forever grateful"

Cesar made sure I was comfortable and consistently asked if I needed a break or anything to make my experience better. The prices were more than reasonable for what I got. The finished tattoo turned out amazing! Will definitely be using Cesar as my go-to artist from now "

    "CJ is always friendly and professional. He takes pride in his work, and his goal is that you do too. He listens to your ideas but will also tell you when something may not work how you envision it and the why around it. He will then take the time to work with you to achieve what you have in mind and I always trust in his artistic judgement. I will continue to go to and recommend CJ and the team at Sanctuary Ink."
