A custom tattoo studio at 3/149 Great South Road in Manurewa, South Auckland, registered in 2018. The studio says it designs every piece to be custom and unique, and works closely with each client on the idea before the tattoo. Consultations are booked by enquiry, and the website says it replies within 24 hours. The studio says it opens fresh needles in front of the client, and that anything that touches the skin, such as ink caps, gloves and razors, is used once only. The website describes a variety of music and a relaxed, comfortable room. Cover-ups and half sleeves are also done, according to customers.
Customers mention first tattoos most often. One customer had a first and a second tattoo done there, and felt comfortable and looked after from the moment they walked in. Another says the artist was skilled, patient and made them feel confident. Customers praise the hygiene and say the studio feels clean, and one customer calls the prices competitive. Not every experience has been good. One customer says a booked appointment was not kept and the studio did not reply to calls or messages. Of the two nearby tattoo studios with 10 or more reviews, none rate higher than this one. The other nearby studio is Ravens Ink Tattoo Studio, 0.6 km away.
