“I got my tattoo done by Adam and I absolutely love it. He freehanded it and it came out amazing. He was so patient and didn’t mind redoing the stencils to make sure it was perfect for me. During the tattoo I got lightheaded since I didn’t eat before and he was so patient and comforting. He made sure I was alright and did everything he could to help. It’s truly a cool and safe place. You guys should definitely get your tattoo here!“

“3 of us went in for tattoos. Artists Kris & Brian were absolutely amazing! While my daughter & SIL were experienced, it was my first time getting a tattoo. Kris was extremely chill & understanding & his humor made the experience more relaxing & enjoyable. Brian must have been just as great as my daughter fell asleep. Staff’s explanations were detailed & thorough throughout the entire process. I highly recommend this shop. If I were to ever get another tattoo, I’d definitely come back here.

Specialties: They listened to our requests and provided professional opinions to help elevate the look of the tattoos.

Cleanliness: 100% sanitary

Stylist: Kris and Brian“

“Stopped in to check out the only APP studio out here in Honolulu and I was so impressed. As the manager of an APP studio back home in New Jersey, these guys definitely know what they’re doing. I met their piercer Bronson and what an absolutely sweetheart. The studio is incredibly clean and has a beautiful selection of jewelry. 10/10 recommend this place if you’re looking for a piercing or body jewelry in Honolulu!“

“Go see Lindsey! Me and a friend was at Ala Moana shopping around and we randomly decided to get our piercings that we've been wanting to do. Me and my earlobes and her helix. We walked in and Lindsey greeted us and we told her what we wanted. She had us fill out paper work and looked at and chose earrings that we wanted while she set up the room. She led us into her room and I decided to go first. She looked at my ears and showed me where she would be piercing, walked me through everything that would be happening, and I was pierced! It wasn't painful at all, it felt like a scratch. After that, my friend got her helix done and she informed us of the aftercare. After our visit Lindsey texted us and sent us a Piercing Aftercare pdf file and to let her know if we had any issues or questions. A month later we saw her again to let her look at our piercings and resize our earrings. Lindsey is amazing and I am happy I got my earlobes pierced by her. She is very professional, friendly, and very clean. I would definitely recommended her and I cannot wait to get more piercings“

“Love love love this tattoo shop. Last year I found this gem and artist Megan Jones. I got a half sleeve last year and came back to get it finished this year. I live in Ohio and waited until I could travel across the country to get my piece by this amazing artist. Meeting this woman and talking with her is an inspirational and uplifting experience.
Myself, my daughter and my husband now all have Megan Jones tattoo. I’ll be back for more next year❤️❤️❤️❤️ Be sure to check out their instagram page to see her beautiful work @meganjones808tattoo

Requested style: I wanted a Polynesian tattoo, she is THE BEST!!!!

Cleanliness: Very clean. Sterile packaging. Hand washing. Gloves. The works.“

“Michelle was communicative from the very start. I showed her the images that I wanted in my tattoo, and she created a beautiful masterpiece. She has a gentle hand and is very attentive. She warned me to prepare myself when certain spots were going to be more painful. She was very personable and funny! We talked story and learned about each other She is fantastic and loves what she does. And it shows in her work! You won't be disappointed. Make an appointment today! Mahalo, Michelle! This was MY happy ending! Haha“

“"I'm wearing short sleeves, I don't want to expose my tattoos." -Jerry Seinfeld Well now I DO wanna wear short sleeves to let my new honu peek out a bit! Been wanting to get a honu ink'd to remind me of where I came from... where home really is. Everytime I go back, I run out of time or just didn't want to give up the beach day. This time the whole fam was IN... when I explained my design concept, both my wife and daughter wanted their own version, still honu themed. da Scene: Determined to get this done done during the 16 day visit back home on Oahu, I did my research early and narrowed it down to 3 spots initially. After some dm's, email exchanges and finally some voice calls, it was Lai @ Tattoo Hawaii who I connected with most, so we scheduled an in-person consult and then our sessions, with 2 days left on our trip - only lost 1 beach day (it was a perfect one too). da Service: Every contact before our session was courteous and replied to promptly. I did have to be insistent on Lai doing our work, even if it meant spanning multiple days. His work on social media and Yelp! most connected with me. At our consult he explained how he would approach my design concept and adapt it to my wife and daughter. Lai was confident he could get us all done in one afternoon/evening session. The shop is tucked away on the 2nd floor of a little building on the corner of Kapiolani and Piikoi... parking is a challenge, so arrive early to wait out a spot. The shop is comfortable and can accommodate 3-4 artists working, with friends looking on in support. da Work: Kai was up 1st as hers would be the least complicated. She went with 3 petroglyph style honu, each about 3.5" diameter, ink'd fairly heavy - vertically on her upper arm, pretty classic design. She has several tattoos already and was surprised that Lai didn't work with a stencil... he simply free-handed the design with several pens, directly on your body. He's a very cool, confident cat, laid back and within minutes has you chatting it up like you went to high school together. I went next as my wife wanted to see how mine's worked out to help solidify her concept. Lai drew a honu/dragon/shark tooth design on my upper arm and I said "go for it". 2.5 hours later I was stunned at the fine details he added to the shark's teeth encircling the honu shell, as well as tribal accents in the honu, while incorporating the dragon profile. It really was satisfying to see my concept executed closely, while adding style and depth, bringing it to life. Carla was last up and really wanted to stick close to what I had done... just smaller and wanted the dragon to "pop" more. As you can see, Lai nailed it... however subtle, the dragon does appear more prominent on her piece. da Wrap: Really happy all-around, already thinking about how to add to it, maybe add color, grow it further down my arm, how to add to the story. It's a very personal thing and I really suggest you take your time to research and find the right artist. I'm confident that you'll find the right one at Tattoo Hawaii. We were there most of the day and saw several folks and artists' work, there was actually one guy there the whole time getting a large whole body piece worked on with a manual tattoo tool, that's an investment! HUGE shout out to Lai for making our sessions so enjoyable and comfortable... When he found out it was my and my wife's 1st work, he said he was honored to be 1st... such a humble guy, great disposition. We'll see you soon brother!“

“Lisa and her crew helped us today with piercings. Lisa was amazing and fast and it didn't hurt! She's awesome with customer service and very personable service. I was impressed by everyone's courtesy and positive attitude. I highly recommend ink pit for your next tattoo or piercing!“

“The owner is the best tattoo artist on the island. Hands down. If you're on Oahu and are considering a tattoo, you must go see Mike.“

“My wife and I took our first trip to Hawaii and obviously decided we had to get a tattoo while there. We got so lucky to have Anna Paige as the owner and our artist! She is btw a palm tree aficionado. Which is what I wanted. Anna was just a beautiful pleasure and so personable. She is smart, talented, and wildly entertaining. I definitely recommend this as a great place to visit and get ink! The price was more than fair for such perfectly skilled work. The memory and experience cannot be bought. We just loved the whole spirit of the place and staff. We even bought a t-shirt. We miss you Anna and hope to see you again!

Requested style: I wanted a palm tree and picked from a selection but Anna made it perfect with her own amazing touch. We call it junk in the trunk lol. My wife also got a plumeria and Anna added such unique artistic splashes of beauty.

Specialties: You’ll love the atmosphere and definitely get a better version of what you intend.

Cleanliness: Very clean and they kept cleaning while we were there. Watch out for the haunted wall that throws pictures, or maybe Anna blamed the ghost.

Stylist: Anna Paige! She has to be the best I’ve ever had! Thank you so much and you sure showed the rest who’s the boss?“
