Kat Von D Biography

Katherine von Drachenberg was born on March 8, 1982 in Monterey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. Though her father (Rene Von Drachenberg) is of German descent and her mother (Sylvia Galeano) has Spanish-Italian roots, both her parents are native Argentinians. Kat has two siblings, a sister named Karoline and a brother named Michael.

When Kat was four years old, her family relocated to the US and settled in Colton, CA. She was just 14 when she got her first tattoo, an old English "J" on her ankle. It wasn't long before Kat realized her natural artistic ability and picked up a tattoo machine herself. Her first effort was a Misfits skull.

Kat began working at Sin City Tattoo, her first professional shop, in 1998. Throughout the next few years she moved around to several other shops, gaining experience and perfecting her art, before finally settling at True Tattoo in Los Angeles. That is where Kat can be found today, working alongside her husband and fellow tattoo artist Oliver Peck.

In addition to her love for the art of tattooing, she is also a fan of Beethoven, and has several tattoos dedicated to or inspired by him.

Kat resides in Los Angeles and has opened up her own tattoo shop which is featured in the series, "LA Ink."

permanent makeup

permanent makeup is basically a tattoo. you can get eyeliner, eyebrows, and lip liner tatted.
is the same process as any other tattoo, the ink still goes in the dermis layer of the skin, but you may need to redo the makeup as it might fade overtime, specially on the eyebrows. This system is well for athletes or very bussy people that dont have time to do their makeup.
