Dermafilia Tattoo and piercing

Wilson is such a great guy, I highly recommend checking out his shop and getting a tattoo! I initially found his shop on Unilocal one day when I was looking for a nearby place to get a small wrist tattoo. The shop is clean and inviting, and Wilson (the owner) was super friendly and got the tattoo done in about 15 minutes. I would definitely get more work done by him just because of his friendly demeanor. After the tattoo healed I went back to get a small touchup, which he did for free, and it was once again a very pleasant experience.

Wilson is a super nice guy and helped thread a new banana bar into my closing eyebrow piercing free of charge, only reason I’m rating 4 instead of 5 is because the bar was $ 30, which to me (having moved here from a small town) seems pretty pricey for a plain bar

I went in when they where open on 18^th St mission loved everything about it they where mad nice loved it that I went back for a second piece. the owner Wilson charged me 400 $ for the piece I didn’t care because I wanted it so I went in for session 1 I wanted to go back and finish up and he kept telling me to come back and other time that the artist was on vacation this was in ²⁰⁰⁷⁄₈ i can’t really remember well is 2015 and my 400 $ piece is still unfinished. I tryed reaching out to him and he said I would have to pay MORE money to have someone else finish it. so he basically stole my money. So unprofessional he does tattoos himself him as a owner should have offered his skills and finished it every time I look at my arm mind u this is a 400 $ piece I payed for so is big I get so angry!!! If I could go back I would ask for a photo copy of what I signed that the tatoo was going to get done and of what I payed for.

AMAZING!!! Mary and Wilson are so chill, down to earth and SICK tattoo artists! Mary has done my entire right upper arm and she is amazing. Definetly check them out!!!

I stumbled upon this shop in the Mission while taking pictures. The vibe is really cool in there. The place is super clean and organized. They were very friendly and professional. Over all great experience.

My fiancé and I were out and about in mission district last night and we decided that we wanted to get piercings, nose for her and septum for me. We stopped in a liquor store before heading to another piercing shop (grabbing a little liquid courage) when we ran into Wilson. We had a short conversation when he mentioned he had a piercing shop next door, it was fate! We finished our purchase and headed over to dermafilia. Wilson was so professional and made us feel very comfortable. My fiancé went first and he placed her nose ring perfectly! Not too high like a lot of places. I’ve had my septum before so he tapered it to reopen the piercing, quick and painless! Her gave us great jewelry my septum sits perfect it isn’t too big or too long. To top it all off he was affordable he charged me $ 40 for the septum tapering including jewelry (he even gave me a second closed septum ring) and my fiances was $ 50 for her nose ring and jewelry. Needless to say we will be back for all our piercings! Also they are a new shop so that’s why they don’t have many reviews yet but Wilson has 15 years experience in piercing!

Mary Kalcic and Wilson Posada are a dream team. Wilson is the owner and a straight up OG. I had one of the best experiences with a few dermal piercings I got. I was pretty nervous initially, as I had quite a few awful experiences with dermal piercings. It wasn’t surprising when I later found out he’s been piercing for 15 years.
I also came in for a BIG cover/​fix up on moon phases down my back. Mary Kalcic turned (what looked like) cookies disproportionately placed down my back, into beautiful moon phases. Mary is an art goddess. Besides the fact that she is unbelievably talented she actually listens, cares, and goes above and beyond to match the vision of her clients. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case with most tattoo artists these days.
I happened to stumble upon this hidden gem while walking around The Mission. Dermafilia is newly opened, and is sill in it’s opening phase. Wilson (the owner) told me that they art working on creating an art gallery in the shop, as well as displaying jewelry and other creations by local artists for sale.
