ABOUT:
Greetings! I’m Justin Ford. Known by the moniker Kurohebi (黒 ヘビ), I am dedicated to the intricacies of traditional Japanese and American traditional tattoos. With an illustrious career spanning 8 years, my heart beats for the art of traditional Japanese tattooing. I strive to uphold the essence of this craft, offering clients an experience that is timeless, profound, and genuine.
Whether crafting breathtaking bodysuits, intricate back pieces, or mesmerizing sleeves, my work speaks volumes. While currently based in the vibrant city of Los Angeles, my yearly pilgrimage to Japan ensures that I continue to hone my skills and deepen my connection to this ancient art form.
LOCATION:
I work full time in Los Angeles ,CA. I travel 1-2 times a year to Japan .
HYGIENE:
Needles, ink, ink caps, gloves, razors, etc. are all disposable.
PRICING:
For tattoos, I charge a set price per piece. If it's a big project, I charge by the hour. Flat fees for tattoos are determined by the design complexity, size, and placement on the body. Additional factors such as color saturation and intricacy may also influence the final cost of the tattoo. Each tattoo is unique, and pricing is tailored to ensure fair compensation for the time and effort invested in creating your tattoo
