On July 14, Miami Ink tattoo artist legend Kat Von D opened up her new rockin’ tattoo spot, High Voltage Tattoo, to the public. The LA based shop is also the focus of TLC’s new Miami Ink tattoo shop spin off series LA Ink, starring Kat Von D.

For Kat fans who have been dying to see their favorite tattoo artist since her departure from Miami Ink, walk-ins are welcome at High Voltage: Monday through Friday, 9pm to midnight, and Saturday and Sunday, 2pm to midnight. So, skate up the hot mini ramp and sit down in Kat’s tattoo chair for some new ink.

Unfortunately, during the filming season, the shop will be closed to the public on weekends until 9pm. But, hey why not try getting cast on the show by stopping lainkcasting.com.

(Update: Season 1 filming is complete, the shop is open for business from noon until midnight [Story])

The shop is located at:
1259 n. La Brea Ave.
W. Hollywood, CA 90038

    Ahoj! Jmenuji se Michaela a jsem z České Republiky.Váš pořad sem poprvé viděla na Discaveru a moc se mi líbil.Jsem veliká faninka Kat Von D..jeji styl je FAMÓZNÍ a její kérky NÁDHERNÉ.Zkrátka má můj velký obdiv,a je mím velkým snem se s ní někdy sejít a nechat se od ní tetovat.Před časem mi umřel malý brat a chtěla bych jeho portrét.. A v tom je Kat jednička.Jenže to nebude tak jednoduché…ale snad se mi to jednou spní.Neumim moc dobře Anglicky,takže píšu Česky i když je tu to ryziko,že si to ani nepřečtete,protože vy neumíte Česky,ale snad se tam najde někdo kdo Česky umět bude.Hezký zbytek dne!

    Kat, all i have to say is u r an awesome artist. I have sent u comments for awhile. The only thing i would like is for somehow get a signed photo of u for my son, Skyler. He has posters in his room of u and thinks u r the sexiest woman on the planet. He is 16 will b 17 Feb. 27, 2010. That would b an awesome gift for him to receive. He tells me that u r going to do his 1st tat. My husband, me and my oldest son already have them so his dream is to get his 1st from u. If u r able to send a sign photo to Skyler u can e-mail me and let me know. Thanks a ton. O we love ur show. U all r awesome artist, but now ur new shop helper (blondie) she really needs to go. Thanks Kat u ROCK!

    Hey Kat! My name is Monica and I just wanted first of all to tell you that you are an AMAZING artist! I have watched you from your days in Miami and love your work. Your portraits are RIDICULOUS! I love them! So for my 44th bday in March I would love to go to LA and would be honored if could make an appt with you.
    i remember my 1st tattoo on my 30th bday my sister Lisa told me to becareful because they would be addicting, hmm I told her No way. Well she was right, unfortunately she is no longer with us. Her and my niece her daughter Sarah were killed in a car accident and I would love thier portrait on my back (perfect place) because I know they have my back always. So with all that being said, I have a question as to what a portrait of my sister and niece about 5-6 inch would cost? Thank You for the opportunity to listen o a fan.

    My name is marcela, I watch your show and seen alot of the work that you do. I was writing yoi in hopes of getting some info about getting a tattoo. My two and a half month old son had passed away from sids. I was just wondering if I could get the one and only thing I could have to remember me of him done in your honor as well as mine. I have a year clean from methephedimines and I am ready to do what it takes to do what I have to to be a women. I know that you get alot of request to do alot of work done on other people but it would really mean so much to me if you could do this perticular tat on me. I have alot of things that I would want to do but this is the one thing I know that I haveto do so take your time and please consider it yours true marcella zomara.

    hi kat im mike from maryland and ive got many tattoo ideas in mind. i already have two (my initials MAG on my neck and and a sword on my right arm) that im not completely satisfied with. i would either like to get one or both of those improved or just get an entirely new tattoo. if i get a new one im interested in either a memorial for 4 recently deceased loved ones or a some type of very unique cross, and i also like dragons and any japanese art. above anyone else both me and mother believe that you are by far the best chance and worth the distance to travel. i know your really busy and probably will never read this but i really would like to get your ideas or opinion it. look forward to hopefully hearing from you.
