Sergio Reynoso, owner of Tattootlan on 1860 S. Main St., sits in his small shop, which is covered in skulls, Santa Maria icons, crucifixes and other relics of his Mexican heritage — a core style of tattooing in which Tattootlan specializes, though they can ink any kind of style. Reynoso began tattooing at the age of 12 in 1976 while in Mexico, using tools he built and taught himself how to use. “Back in the days, there were no suppliers,” Reynoso says, “so you had to improvise your tools.” He came to Salt Lake City in the mid-1990s, started at ASI Tattoo & Artistic Skin Illustrations, and opened Tattootlan in 2000.
