About Me

Welcome to the Nathan’s Anthems myspace. Please allow us a moment to introduce ourselves. We are professional Piercers and Tattoo artists. That means you are going to receive the utmost level of care when getting your next body modification. Because Nathan’s is a professional shop, all employees are Bloodborne Pathogens, CPR, and First Aid certified. We view our profession as an art form and with great reverence, This also means we do not carry or sell any form of drug paraphernalia as we feel it has no place in our industry. We hire people with good ethics and a great value system so that our clients will be treated kindly.
Nathan’s Anthems has an APP (Association of Professional Piercers) Piercer at the studio full-time. The APP demands very high standards to grant membership, and this is something we are very excited about! This means we use only the best jewelry available. Plenty of shops claim they do but in reality carry low-grade jewelry. We also have a studio set up to APP standards with a separate bio room, non-porous surfaces in all work areas, and more.
We believe that only through continuous education of both our customers and ourselves will we be able to provide the highest quality piercings possible. All of our Piercers and Apprentices take advanced training courses and attend seminars year-round. We learn the newest techniques, proper jewelry and aftercare, as well as interface with our colleagues who are looked upon as some of the best Piercers in the world. Our walls are covered with certificates of these training seminars, which cost a lot of money to attend, but in the long run we feel it’s best for our clients.
Our artists are just that-artists. Nathan’s Anthems is the only full-custom shop in Shasta County, meaning every tattoo is a one-of-a-kind, custom piece, tailor made with your personal taste and best interests in mind. Our artists focus on what’s important. You won’t find intimidating attitudes or egos here. Drop by for a free consultation, all designing and customizing is free of charge. We also have plenty of reference material including technical manuals, art reference books and thousands of pieces of flash to get you started on the way to your custom piece. We are also more than happy to work from your own reference-books, paintings, photographs, t-shirts, comic books, virtually anything in the world can be used for reference, or even just to spark an idea! Our artists take the utmost pride in their work, and want it to look as incredible as it can conceivably be. Though uncommon, we offer free touchups within the first 6 months, except in the case of aftercare negligence on the tattooee’s part.
One last note: None of us at Nathan’s Anthems would be here if not for Nathan Peterson. Nathan is the proprietor of "Nathan’s Tattoos and Piercings" in Canoga Park (LA), CA. He is also the driving force and “Godfather” of all of us. He is considered one of the best Piercers in America and he ranks among the most admirable people we know.
