  1. 222 was THE shop that changed everything for me. I didn't know it then, nor did I know just how monumental of a shop it was at the time. I was super new to SF and I wanted to get more tattoos. So I was told I should stop by this shop my roommates had printed shirts for (which I still have).... I got tattooed by Jeff and Juan. In fact getting tattooed by Juan made me want to get into tattooing... he also scared the crap out of me, just by how care free he drew on me, and could tattoo while being on the phone. I thought for sure he was going to mess it all up. It was also the first place I got my taste of "tattoo shop humor" Juan was tattooing 1976 on the back of my arm and Scott came up and said, that looks good but what is 1982 suppose to mean? I also got to see the great "after hours" aspect of tattooing there, that I will keep between me and the parties that were present.... all in all, 222 changed my life.

  2. Welcome Greg.It must have been an experience getting tattooed at such a great shop.What artist did you get work from.

    I had the pleasure to get my wrist done by Jeff Rassier and 3 other from Juan Puente. I was so new to tattooing at the time, but I had to keep going. I use to try and hang out there, but I felt bad being there and not getting tattooed. Torture!!!!!

  3. Hello, my name is Greg De Hoot. I am an Apprentice at Flying Dutchman Studios in Antioch, CA. I love tattooing, and have been on a crash course to where I am at since I got tattooed at 222 in SF. I would love to use this as another place for me to learn. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
