Fantastic experience: Got a tattoo from Shawn. Would absolutely recommend and come back next time I’m in HI. He was very consultative, knows tattoo processes inside and out, and has done a fantastic job with the tattoo itself. Very clean lines. Nailed exactly what I wanted. This is my 20th tattoo and I don’t think I've had anyone better at their job.
Thanks for the awesome review, Zaid! Shawn really appreciates your kind words, and we're stoked you loved the clean lines on your tattoo. Swing by again next time you’re in Waikiki!

Thanks a ton for the awesome review! So glad you loved your tattoo—bringing visions to life is what we do best! Swing by anytime; walk-ins are always welcome at our spot in Rainbow Bazaar!
Negative experience: Tattoo was shit and didn't heal well due to malpractice, I had the owner himself (Tim) do a full sleeve. In short, wouldn't recommend any locals to get their tattoo here, they would prefer non locals. Also the owner has a bit of an anger issue. I hope he gets better, if not then I only hope the best for him.
Erik, I’m very sorry your sleeve didn’t heal properly and you felt treated poorly; we hear you and take complaints about technique and staff conduct very seriously.
Please DM or email us so we can review photos, offer a complimentary correction or refund, and explain the steps we’re taking, including staff retraining, stricter quality checks and improved aftercare guidance to make this right.

Negative experience: It’s been a few weeks since my wife and I visited and at first we were super stoked, it was good work and it’s healing nicely. However, after seeing some of the listed prices on other tattoos, I feel like we severely over paid. I understand it’s Hawaii and a tourist attraction but I ended up paying $360 in total for a tattoo that took 45 minutes and is strictly line work. To be fair I should have asked about pricing before hand but I still feel like I was severely overcharged. My wife’s piece is more detailed and justifiable for the price but was still a bit overpriced as well. I wouldn’t go back simply because of that. Updated to add- poor customer service.
Mahalo Kiana, we appreciate you choosing our studio and your honest feedback — glad the piece is healing well and sorry the price felt high.
Our rates reflect island operating costs, experienced artists, and strict single-use sterilization; we should have reviewed an estimate up front, so please contact the shop to review your invoice and we’ll work toward a fair resolution, Mahalo
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience getting my tattoo here! Ivan was my artist and he was experienced and quick! I would recommend Aloha Tattoo to anyone in the area looking to get a tattoo.
Thanks, Cierra! We're so glad you had a great time with Ivan at Aloha Tattoo. Your recommendation means a lot! Hope to see you again next time you're in Waikiki!
Fantastic experience: Awesome dudes! Ando did an amazing job on my tattoo! Couldn't be happier! If yiu have the time and want a lasting memory of your trip go to Aloha Tattoo!

Fantastic experience: Kaina was an incredible artist. He gave me the cleanest tattoo ever and specializes in tribal work. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
Aubtoshi, so stoked Kaina gave you the cleanest tribal piece. We treasure feedback like yours and are committed to continuous improvement for every guest.

Fantastic experience: I had Tim as my artist. He was great in everyway. Very light hearted attitude, easy to talk with and he really cares about the quality of his work with over 21 years of experience. I would recommend him to anyone
Thanks, Mike! We're so glad you enjoyed your time with Tim at our spot inside the Hilton Hawaiian Village. His experience really shines through! Hope to see you again in Waikiki!
Fantastic experience: Awesome tattoo. Ian did a great job with my last minute tattoo request! Looks amazing and service at this shop was incredible, everyone was very friendly and made the experience worth it.
Thanks, Kelcey! We're so glad Ian nailed your last-minute tattoo request. It’s awesome to hear you enjoyed the friendly vibe here at the Hilton Hawaiian Village. Come back anytime!

Fantastic experience: Scheduled short notice and made it in for a same day appointment with Leo. Leo was awesome, making sure everything I wanted was lined out properly before starting. The session went very smooth. This is my second tattoo and the first one in 11 years, I couldn’t be more satisfied with the turn out.
Aloha Caleb! So stoked to hear Leo hooked you up with an epic tattoo! Can't wait to see your new ink – mahalo for sharing the love!
Mahalo
Fantastic experience: Leo took me in as a walk-in and made the experience super easy, welcoming, and fast. Very professional.
Aloha Shane!
Eh brah, Uncle Kimo here—still doing my rounds, still talking story, still making sure folks don’t miss the good stuff in Waikiki
Big mahalo for the five-star review and for choosing Rob to do your tattoo while you were here in paradise. That’s how you turn a vacation into a memory that sticks. Sun, ocean, maybe one plate lunch too many… and a fresh tattoo from a top-notch Waikiki tattoo artist
Rob’s one of those artists who keeps things smooth and solid, whether it’s a walk-in tattoo in Waikiki, a clean custom tattoo, or someone finding us the old-fashioned way—by typing “tattoo shop Waikiki,” “tattoo near me,” or “best tattoo artist Waikiki” into their phone while standing on the sidewalk.
I always tell visitors: Waikiki has plenty places to shop, plenty tours to take—but not every place gives you something you’ll still be smiling about years later. That’s why our tattoo shop near Waikiki Beach stays busy, and why people keep calling us the best tattoo shop in Waikiki.
So mahalo again, Shane. From your friendly Hawaiian uncle with the local tips and questionable jokes—heal that tattoo right, enjoy the rest of your island time, and when someone back home asks where you got it done, you tell ’em:
Best tattoo shop in Waikiki. Guaranteed.
A hui hou!
Fantastic experience: Good Experience over all. Tim is a very nice and professional artist . Very satisfied with my Tatoo.
Mahalo, Kalos! We are thrilled to hear that you had a good experience and are satisfied with your tattoo. Aloha!
