2

We message you back

3

You get a real price, less 15%

Based on your actual piece, in Australian dollars, with the 15% enquiry discount already taken off the listed price, before you commit to anything.

4

We hold your time

A 20% deposit locks in your artist and your slot. The rest is paid on the day.

Why Aussies and Kiwis pick us

The bit everyone worries about, sorted

Getting inked overseas comes with a few honest questions. Here's how we answer them for every Australian and New Zealand traveller who walks in.

Hygiene you can watch happen

Every razor and needle is brand new and opened in front of you. We only use American or Japanese needles and ink, and the studio is set up to Australian hygiene standards rather than whatever the street next door is doing.

Artists who have won things

Jhony has been tattooing for 9 years and placed second at both Jakarta Tattoo Fest and Bali Tattoo Expo. Yoga handles realism, Japanese, fine line and colour. You're not rolling the dice on whoever is free.

A price, not a guess, and 15% off

Every price is published on this site in Australian dollars. Enquire through the form or message us and we take 15% off those listed prices when we work out your quote. No pressure in the chair, no surprise at the end, no haggling games.

Three ways to get tattooed

Come to us, or we'll come to you

Most people sit with us in Kuta. If you'd rather stay by your villa pool, or you want to be asleep for the whole thing, we can do that too.

Common questions

The things people ask us most

Is it safe to get a tattoo in Bali?

It is when the studio treats hygiene properly. Every razor and needle here is brand new and opened in front of you, we use American or Japanese needles and ink, and the shop is run to Australian hygiene standards. If a studio won't open sterile equipment in front of you, walk out.

How much does it hurt?

It depends on your pain tolerance, the size of the piece and where it sits on your body. Ribs and feet are sharper than forearms. Tell your artist if you're nervous and we'll pace the session, and numbing options are available if you want them.

Can I swim after getting tattooed?

Not straight away, which matters a lot on a Bali trip. Keep fresh work out of pools and the ocean until it has healed over. Plan your tattoo for later in the trip if swimming is the main event, and we'll talk timing through with you when you book.

What about the Bali sun?

Fresh ink and tropical sun are a bad mix. Keep it covered and out of direct sun while it heals, and try not to arrive sunburnt, because burnt skin can't be tattooed. If you're planning big beach days, get tattooed towards the end of your trip.

Should I book ahead or just walk in?

Walk ins are welcome and we'll fit you in where we can, at the full published price. Enquiring first is the better move: it takes 15% off that price, it guarantees your preferred artist is free on the day you want, and it matters most in peak season and for bigger pieces that need several hours.

Can I have a drink before or after?

Not before. Alcohol thins your blood, so you bleed more, the ink doesn't settle as well and the session gets harder. Come in sober and well fed. Once you're done, go easy for the first day or two and keep drinking plenty of water, which helps it heal in the heat.

Not sure yet? Just ask us

Send us a message with what you're thinking. We'll give you a straight answer on price, timing and whether it's the right piece for you, with no obligation to book anything. Enquiries through the site get 15% off the listed prices.

We usually reply within a few hours, Bali time. That's the same time as Perth, 2 to 3 hours behind the east coast of Australia, and 4 to 5 hours behind New Zealand.
