Classic Tattoo

My name is Tim Hedricks. I'm the owner of Classic Tattoo in Fullerton, California. I'm actually a Fullerton native. I was raised here in Fullerton, in West Fullerton, and I used to drive past this shop when I was a kid and just think it was the coolest place on earth, This is actually the first tattoo shop in Fullerton. It was opened in 1989, and this gentleman named Charlie Moore, he opened this place. He used to work for Kerry Barba. He opened Classic Tattoo in Fullerton, and it looked a lot different from how it looks now than it did then when Charlie Moore owned it. He sold it to Eric Moskey later on, and Eric redid the entire shop and made it look Right when you walk in the door here, you just feel the vibe, because people here, we're not just coworkers, we're actually a family, and we get to tattoo with our friends. I mean, I get to come in every day and tattoo with my friends, and that type of environment is inspiring, and you can feel it right when you come through the door. So ever since I bought this shop in 2014, I have hand-picked and meticulously made sure every artist in here is of top quality. I mean, there's not an artist in here who can't do every type of tattoo that there is out there, and do it well. There are artists who specialize in specific things, but man, you can't get a bad tattoo at Classic Tattoo, and that's one of the things that I'most proud of at the shop. It's people walk in and they're intimidated, the moment they come in, and a lot of older tattooers were, they kind of fed on that, and So I always pride myself in making people feel comfortable the moment they walk through the door, and the moment they enter my shop. You don't get cool guide, you don't get attitude, you get nothing but kindness, and I think that's just, that's why it sets us apart from any other shop. So this is Classic Tattoo in Fullerton, California, where you come as a stranger and you leave as a friend.
