Kim Long — Tattoo Artis

With a background rooted in Nha Trang, Vietnam, Long's remarkable journey has taken him from owning three flourishing tattoo parlors to starting anew in Pensacola, Florida, less than nine months ago. He is married to Carmen Nguyen, and together they have two children. With an illustrious twenty-year career in the tattoo industry, Long has cultivated a mastery of diverse styles, recognizing the value of adaptability in bringing his clients' visions to life. The heart of Long's passion for tattooing lies in its potential to inspire, heal, and empower individuals, offering a unique platform for self-expression and storytelling. He derives immense satisfaction from knowing that his art has a lasting, positive impact on those he has the privilege to work with.


Looking back on his journey, Long says it's easy to dwell on the negativity and the doubters instead of the successes. But that same humility - the ability to acknowledge both the highs and the lows- is what keeps you learning and striving for even greater achievements. Long is eager to take his passion to new heights, growing his clientele in the States with a tattoo studio in 850 Salon & Wellness Spa, starting August 2025.


FUN FACT - In his spare time, he loves to paint and sell his artwork. Some paintings are showcased in local coffee shops.
