About Us

Ink’d Chronicles has been serving Downtown Pomona since 2007.

Ink’d Chronicles started with the idea from Terry Dipple and a tattoo artist who said, “if you can open a tattoo shop in downtown Pomona, it’s a great location”. Ink’d Chronicles opened in the Arts Colony of Downtown Pomona in Nov 2007 alongside his daughter Tess, who owns Ink’d as of 2015. 

Tattoos for the Cure was founded by Terry when his fiancé, Michelle was diagnosed with breast cancer. As of 2021 she is cancer free but Tattoos for the Cure is still part of Ink’d Chronicles which has donated more than $32,000 in the 12 years of hosting the breast cancer charity event. 

Tess quickly learned to pierce within the first year Ink’d opened. She’s been the head piercer ever since.
