Tattoo studio in New Zealand

“A family member visiting from Germany looking for an addition to an existing tattoo that had been done in Aotearoa New Zealand about five years ago ended up booking with Jaco in his new awesome studio. Not only was Jaco super responsive, his advice on the design of the tattoo was A-grade and he even took the time to redo the original tattoo (done by a different artist) to make sure everything looks amazing. Harald says: “Thank you Jaco for the fabulous, first class artistic work. I am extremely happy with it. I’m taking a beautiful tattoo back to Germany with me.” Awesome experience, highly recommended!”

“Jarna does such beautiful work + is so lovely in person. Studio is so pretty too! Will definitely keep coming back for more!”

“Would definitely get another tattoo done here if I am back in Auckland. I only had about 1.5 days here in Auckland on my trip and wanted a tattoo while here. I saw Jinny had some really cool new flash and quickly messaged. She was quick to respond and was able to fit me in the next day. I had to book and pay a deposit and being international Jinny and Panda were very patient while I figured that out on my app the evening before. The shop is easy to find and everyone is very nice. Dude their dog is so tiny and cute, he kept me company while waiting for my stencils. I absolutely love my new tattoos and the style they are in. Definitely a great way to remember the kick off of my New Zealand trip :)”

“Fantastic studio with amazing artists. Alvina made me feel instantly welcomed and at ease. She was so kind and patient and made sure to work with me to make sure my tattoo was exactly what I wanted. The fineline is so perfectly delicate and beautiful. I couldn't be happier with my tattoo it's healing so well”

“I stumbled upon this studio by doing a quick Google search, only place that had the most 5 star ratings and I was not disappointed. I went in to get my first tattoo,with the intention of getting just one but ended up getting 2 instead. I was rather apprehensive but Jigs and the team made me feel so comfortable and it was a wonderful experience. Made me realise that just being artistically gifted is not enough to be a great tattoo artist, you need to be personable, approachable and welcoming and these guys tick all those boxes.”

“Tian was helpful throughout booking my tattoo as it had to align with our travel plans. Friendly and extremely talented. I’ve been lucky enough to leave with a beautiful new leg piece. Thanks”

“Had the best experience! Carol is amazing at her art and i left the tattoo studio with a big smile on my face! The studio looks very cool and professional. Would definitely come back for more tattoos in the future ”

“Very friendly and welcoming staff. Joe was an amazing tattooist and am extremely happy with what he has done for me. I can highly recommend Sacred tattoo if anyone is considering getting a tattoo..”

“Adrian was a great tattooer he made me very happy with this 2 new tattoos, what i love so much is work. Thank you again”

“I had a great experience being tattooed by Lindsay at the Tattoo and Art Convention. Her technique meant pain was minimal and she was great to interact with. Thanks Lindsay!”

“Booked online which was very easy compared to other places. Jai was our artists and he made us feel comfortable and made conversation with us. Their studio set up is very nice and private. We went in for the October flash sale and I chose a very basic design which he then gave it detail which I absolutely loved and definitely think it looks better. My partner doesn’t like the pain but Jai was very patient and good with him and his tattoo also turned out amazing.”

“Julie was amazing from the very start. She listened to exactly what I wanted and we spun a twist on it and she came up with the most perfect tattoo! It was a whole relaxing and great experience over 2 days for the full sleeve. I am so happy with my new tattoo and I have heaps of complements on it. Julie and I got on so well, I could imagine being great friends with her!! Thank you so much Julie - I am currently planning my next one!!”

“I just got my first tattoo, and wow – what an incredible experience from start to finish! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and warm, easing any first-timer jitters. Braden was absolutely brilliant. He took the time to understand my vision, offered ideas, and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. They say you always remember your first time, and this is certainly true for my tattoo. I honestly can't stop looking at my new ink, and it's already got me thinking about what my next one.!! If you're considering getting a tattoo, especially your first, I can't recommend this studio enough. Prepare to be amazed – and prepare to want more!”

“I came in today with my best friend to get matching tattoos. We both had tattoos before, this was my first tattoo with colour. This is handsdown the least painful tattoo that I have gotten so far. I couldn’t recommend Ricky enough, I felt faint after the tattoo and his constantly checking to make sure I was okay. The level of professionalism and excellent Customer Service is outstanding. I’ll definitely be returning”

“I am so pleased with the piece I had done at DreamHands Tattoo! Daniel was amazing - very thorough, professional and kind. I absolutely love my tattoo - would highly recommend!”

“I had the absolute luck(and my pleasure)to have Ayla as my tattoo artist after a lovely talk with Simon(who was so helpful with my design as I had NO idea!). Ayla was the absolute BEST to be spending an hour or more with in a close environment, she’s so considerate and kind and I’m so glad I had the privilege of having her as my tattoo artist! Thank you Ayla with the beautiful ‘aura’ you were a delight and I hope to see you again and I would ABSOLUTELY HAVE NO HESITATION IN RECOMMENDING YOU to anyone and everyone! One very special young lady who should be so proud of herself her professionalism and her talent! Stay well Ayla I LOVE the tattoo you did for me…”
