Every piece here is drawn entirely from scratch, with a strict policy against flash sheets and replica designs. Resident artist Kenneth focuses on fine line work and bold blackwork, collaborating directly with clients to refine concepts through a free initial consultation before committing ink to skin. Tattoos are priced by the piece rather than by the hour, and once the skin has healed, touch-ups are provided without charge. It is one of two tattoo studios within a kilometre, and none nearby rate higher.
Visits are by appointment only, running Monday to Sunday from 10am to 6:30pm on Huron Street in Takapuna. Initial enquiries and reference imagery are handled via Instagram direct message or email, with appointments confirmed by a deposit that comes off the final bill. Our pick on the North Shore for thoughtful, bespoke blackwork designed to age cleanly.
