Not A Cool Tattoo

10/16/2026

Sometimes the simplest pieces carry the heaviest weight.

​Looking back on Hurricane Isaias, it’s a quiet reminder of what we can endure when everything around us feels like it’s being tested. For so many people, healing isn't just about rebuilding what was damaged—it's about marking the moment you made it through.

​Tattoos have a unique way of being part of that healing process. They don't always have to be massive, intricate pieces; sometimes a small, simple symbol is all it takes to anchor a memory, honor a lesson, or remind yourself of your own strength every time you look at it. It’s a permanent nod to the fact that you weathered the storm and kept going.

​Whether you're looking to honor a story, close a chapter, or carry a daily reminder of what you’ve overcome, our studio is always a safe space to turn that process into something meaningful.

​Stop by Not A Cool Tattoo whenever you're ready—we're here for you. 🖤

We are back! We want to say thank you—it was simply amazing how many of you reached out to see if we needed help. The shop and all our neighbors in the plaza survived with minimal damage. So, if you need to unwind, vent, or just sit in silence for some ink therapy, we are here for you. ❤️

​Santa Rosa is our home and always will be. We love each and every one of you and are sending all our strength to you and yours.

The local legends at 850 Barbecue need our help clearing out their inventory tomorrow before the storm hits. They will be set up here at Not A Cool Tattoo from 9:00 AM until they sell out!

​If you want some of the best BBQ around—and, more importantly, want to support a local family—swing by anytime tomorrow. Grab some incredible comfort food to stock up and help calm those pre-storm nerves!

Ok everyone we have a solution! We will setup tomorrow morning at 9am at Not A Cool Tattoo in Pace until we are sold out. Bulk purchases or order from the menu. Either is fine! We will see you tomorrow I hope and pray! Come sell us out! If you have already made a bulk order today that is fine, you are already taken care of! Don’t forget, we have Brunswick Stew available for pickup as we speak, $20/Quart!!!!
