Brandon Castillo AKA Sixer

Tattooing and running the shop and tattooing, Sixer has been handling both for over 15 years. Most shop owners understand how hard it is to just run the shop, but tattooing at the same time? You can tell Sixer’s puts 100% effort into both. His tattoos come with crisp, clean lines, saturated blacks and colors to create contrast throughout his work.

Had a custom piece designed in honor of my father who passed away. My brother got a matching one. Kristine did a phenomenal job. Both of us couldn’t be happier with the outcome. When I get more tattoos, I will definitely be booking with Kristine at Golden Child!
