🌵 Born in Massachusetts, raised in New Mexico, and settled in San Jose, ⁠Daniel Dagones⁠ is a tattooer with a unique perspective on his art. He learned the craft in his hometown of Las Cruces in the early 2000s. But in 2011 when he moved to the 408, he was inspired by the quality of tattoos here and his work truly became his own.

🫟 He's been tattooing at ⁠Current Tattooing⁠ for over a decade now and he's also a co-founder of San Jose's own tattoo ink company, ⁠Magic Pigment Company⁠!
