Elite Airbrush Tattoo

Elite Airbrush Tattoo Exclusive Design

Just arrived, our custom made “Shooting Star” tattoo design. We have been eagerly awaiting this new addition to our collection. If you have read any of our previous stories, you know how popular Star Tattoos are. We think this one will be a winner. I would like to say Congratulations to “Gabby”, she was the first person to get the “Shooting Star” tattoo. I just know you will get lots of compliments. In all we had 3 customers get this new design (on the arm, on the back, and on the foot). So if you like this design, just ask for it by name. Special Thanks goes out to “Mai” for allowing us to base this design off a real tattoo she hand sketched for herself.

Today was a nice sunny beautiful day and there we lots of people at the flea market. We had quite a crowd surrounding our booth, watching our work and at the same time had people waiting to get their very own tattoo. We did meet lots of people, some from as far away as South Africa (Hi Athea), well actually she now lives in Redding, CA, but that is still 4 hours away. I would also like to thank all those people who were very patient and waited their turn. I am happy to know that what I do will bring a smile to your face. All I can say is “What a great day at The Flea”.

We also had a lots of customers ask if we are available for parties and events. Of course we are. Just check our our Services page, get the details, and drop us a line. Remember, availability is limited so please book in advance. Don’t forget, we are not scheduled to return to the San Jose Flea Market until Aug, 22-23. The reason being that next weekend we will be at the San Jose Jazz Festival followed by a much deserved weekend off. So there is plenty of time to get your friends and family excited about getting their own tattoo. Check our Event listings for where you can count on finding us next.

Family Tattoo Fun

What is your favorite tattoo design?

Today, by far the most popular tattoo was the “lip smack” or “lips”. A simple design, yet widely popular. I must have done about 6 today. Even green ones! Most if not all were applied just behind an ear on the neck. Very nice.

Another popular design people could not get enough of was just about anything with stars. People love having that “Star” look and you just can’t go wrong with stars. Most choose black or a particular color (red is popular), or have it applied in alternating color combinations.  I do have a couple of ideas related star tattoo designs that I am having created and can’t wait to share them with you. So check back soon.

Either way, we were glad we got a chance to meet all of you and be given the opportunity to put a little color on your skin. I also wanted to give a shout out to my nephews Caleb, Joshua, and Noah. So whether you are from Daly City or San Jose, thanks for stopping by.

Today was also our first day wearing our new Elite Airbrush Tattoo branded T-Shirts. Now it’s easier to learn our names as each are printed on the front of the shirt. Not only does it look professional, but think being a walking billboard will definitely get the word out.

We will return to the San Jose Flea Market again tomorrow. Our booth will be at the same location, 6th – G201, under Expo Center 1 awning. Don’t forget to say hello and perhaps just maybe you will be mentioned in an upcoming story.

Large colorful rainbow butterfly tattoo

Butterflies, butterflies, and more butterflies. In fact Butterflies, Lettering, and Dragons were the most requested tattoos today. The Flea Market did not start to get busy until 12pm, at which time customers started to flow in. Everyone wanted to get an airbrush tattoo and were willing to wait in a line for their turn.

I am a very detailed oriented tattoo artist who in turn is very particular and wants to make sure each and every tattoo is a quality product. Today I got some assistance from my step-son Robert and my mom Irene. They were invaluable and helped to ensure all questions were answered and things went smoothly.

How do you make a temporary tattoo last forever? Get your photo taken. If we don’t ask to take a photo of you and your new airbrush tattoo, let us know. All photos will be posted. Check out today’s pictures on our Photos page.

There are also a few of you that requested if we are available for private birthday parties. The answer is Yes. Please visit our Services page for additional details. Remember to reserve you date early.

So we will see you next weekend, same Flea Market, same location. Also see our Events page for a listing of appearances.

Thanks Everyone.

Dice on Fire. Great tattoo!

We are back at The Flea this weekend (“La Pulga” is Spanish for “The Flea” in case you were curious). Although things got off to a slow start, business did pick up and before we knew it the was a line of anxious people waiting to get temporary tattoos. I believe that attendance was slightly lower in general due to the Gilroy Garlic Festival going on this weekend.

Thanks to all our customers and we hope you take the time to tell all your friends and family about us. You each got a small card with our website and contact details, please feel free to pass that along to a friend. We are thankful to get the word out any way we can.

We also want to thank all the Flea Market employees for stopping by, expressing their individuality by getting an airbrush tattoo, and then spreading the word to other customers. We were also told by one employee ”Elite Airbrush Tattoo will definitely be kept busy as this is something new and different and will be a big hit”. This is good news to us! We love happy customers.

If your would like to see today’s photos, they are on our Photo page.

See you tomorrow.
