Welcome to June Bug Tattoo

Hello,

We have found a new home! June Bug Tattoo will now be located in Eagle Rock, CA. We feel so grateful to each and every one of you that supported us through the tragedy of the fire and we are so happy to be able to get back to work tattooing all you fine people. Our new address is:

4315 Eagle Rock Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90041

(Info about the fire below)

My name is Isabela Livingstone and we lost our beautiful tattoo shop in the Eaton Wildfire. I opened June Bug Tattoo in Altadena in April of 2023. Having a tattoo shop run by women was a dream of mine. I wanted to create a space for people to feel safe and comfortable in a tattoo environment. June Bug became that and so much more—a safe haven for trans, queer, and people on the spectrum who wanted tattoos. I'm so proud of the legacy of this place, and I am so devastated to have lost it in the Eaton fire. I spent my life savings building this shop, and to see it as a pile of ash is incredibly painful.

The support from women in the tattoo community, the Altadena community, and our community at large has been heartwarming and overwhelming. We know that the path forward is to rebuild and keep this vision alive.

It's hard to ask for help in this way, but I know it's the right thing to do since we lost everything in this fire. We plan to find a space and rebuild what we have from the ground up, and to do that, we will need some help. We plan to use the donations for finding a space, permits, licenses, necessary renovations, furniture, POS systems, office supplies, and many other things that are necessary in the building of a tattoo shop.

Thank you for sharing. Thank you for helping.
