Tattoolicious

I got my first tattoo ever here. The place was very clean and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I met with Heather who was FANTASTIC! I knew a general idea of what I wanted and with my consultation with her, she helped tweek the idea into something perfect. On tattoo day, she was so friendly and so understanding about my fear of getting it done. She explained the whole process, what I would feel, what was to happen, etc and she was right on target. She kept up conversation to help keep my mind off of everything and when she was done, I couldn't have been more pleased. It was BEAUTIFUL!!! The price was also the cheapest in Honolulu!!! I highly recommend Heather and Tattoolicious whether it's your first or 10th tattoo.

11 years ago when in Hawaii I wanted to get a tattoo as a reminder of my trip there and I decided not to get one after all, I always regretted that decision after returning home. Going back there in 2008 I decided that I would not allow the same regret so I set out to find the right place to acquire my Hawaiian souvenir. There were many sites to choose from in Waikiki but there was only one place for me, Tattolicious! Not only was it the cleanest Tattoo place I had ever been to they were very helpful to all of my questions and concerns! I would highly recommend them to everyone looking for a safe clean place to acquire body art! I am very pleased with the overall experience and the finished product that I look forward to returning to them someday for more! Jason was the artist that did my work and all I can say is Jason you rock bro! If you're looking for a tattoo in Waikiki there is only one place to look, Tattolicious! Tom Davis

Pros: Everything was awesome!

Cons: No cons!

HUNT & HUNTINGTON tattoo shop on Kuhioi Ave Waikiki is the worst shop I've been to. I had a tattoo done when I arrived on the island of Oahu and had a small item included in the design which was this exact size..."o" < < exact size. A few weeks later I decided I didn't want it and I went in to have it colored in. First I was asked IF I LIVE HERE OR NOT...being a snowbird it soon became apparent I received the special TOURIST PRICE because they wanted their minimum of $140.00 dollars to color (one color) the cirlce in. I checked all over town and the highest minimum I could find was $60.00 The artist who did the original tattoo never spoke one word during the process except to mumble a grunt whan asked a question. This lack of customer interaction...the super expensive minimum to fix such a small item and their total lack of concern for customer service appears to be based on the concept of "Gouge n' wave bye bye to tourists" Highly recommended to stay away from this place. My two friends and I have lots of ink left to get and it will certainly NOT be at this shop.

Pros: Clean

Cons: Expensive, poor after-service, impersonal, exists on tourists.

I was in hawaii tattoo shop and this place was awesome. The tattoo waikiki shops were not all the best I've seen until I went to this waikiki tattoo shop. Man, artists were cool at Tattoolicious and the tattoos were awesome. Next time in a tattoo hawaii shop I'm going to Tattoolicious. Also, the hawaii piercing here is great! I got my tounge pierced and it was very clean and basically no pain. Next time I'm in hawaii for a tattoo I'm going to Tattoolicous. Very clean and professional. I highly recommend!

Pros: Best hawaii tattoo shop on island

Cons: A little hard to find, so call them 808-949-TATS

Before going to Honolulu on business, I checked out the Tattoo licious website and was impressed by Amy's portfolio. They took my appointment by phone and the experience was great. This was my fourth tattoo in as many shops, but this was by far the best work and atmosphere of any of them. Amy is an amazing artist and a great person. She is very knowledgeable and easy to work with while designing the tattoo. The shop is very clean and all of the staff are exceptionally friendly (especially Sean and Jason). Prices are very reasonable too. I cannot recommend Amy and Tattoolicious enough. I would definitely go back again.

Pros: Amazing Tattoos, Great Artwork, Reasonable Prices Friendliest Staff Around, great parking

Cons: A little hard to find, one of those special find it places.

I decided to get a tattoo while recently in Waikiki. I have a couple other small ones, and my friend wanted a small one too, so we visited a couple of shops in the area and did some online researching. I chose Tattoolicious because the shop was open and clean, and it seemed more like a hip salon or spa than like some of the more old-school sailor or biker tattoo places you find in other areas (there is an Aveda salon in the space too). Not that those types of shops are bad, but Tattoolicious' space was more inviting for me. We made our appointments and came back a few days later for the tattoos. My artist, Sean, helped me work out a great design that he drew up for me. He was unfailingly kind, polite, and knowledgeable. If I choose to get another tattoo, I'd go back to Tattoolicious and/or Sean without a second thought. The space was clean, I was comfortable there, and Sean was terrific.

Pros: Artist's skill and personality, atmosphere, cleanliness

Cons: Small flash collection, but the artists will help with designs

I recently went on vacation to the island of Oahu and I wanted to get my first tattoo.I did not know what shop would be the safest and make me feel most comfortable.I opened up a Best of Oahu magazine and there was Tattoolicious!!They had a 10% off coupon for tattoos so I decided to check them out.The second I walked in,I was blown away by their beautiful shop and the impeccable sincerity of their employees. The front desk staff answered my every question and the artist that tattooed me,Sean, went over the extensive sterilization process with me and he listened to my every comment I had and he designed my tattoo around my exact directions.When I was finished,I had a beautiful tattoo that was EXACTLY what I always dreamed.I would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants to get a tattoo in Hawaii and have a positive experience.

Pros: AMAZING staff, Great prices, Beautiful and Clean

I got a tattoo at this parlor on March 11th, 2006. When I called for info/appointment the receptionist blew me off. I had to call the next day and talk to someone compitent to get the info I needed. My tattooist was talented and fast, but she didn't draw up something custom for me like I wanted. She also didn't seem to care when I asked her to give me a break. She also told me that I could not have color in my tattoo because it was too small, which I later found out was untrue. I recieved very little information on how to take care of my tattoo. I had to look that information up online. However! I think this was just a fluke, because everyone else seemed great and the place was gorgeous and clean. Overall I'd go back again, I'd just get a different artist.

Pros: Clean, Beautiful

Cons: Some Staff, Apoints. made on site

Im so glad my first experience getting a tattoo was with tattoolicious in waikiki. I had gone to other tattoo shops in waikiki but I felt uneasy with the other shops staff and I had issues with their levels of cleanliness. At tattoolicious they dont reuse needles and their equipment is autoclaved, which really put me at ease. Thank you tattoolicious!

I was staying in Waikiki Oahu in Hawaii. I went to tattoo licious in waikiki. This tattoo parlor is beautiful. They have body piercing and a whole tattoo gallery. I stronly recomment tattoo licious. If you're in honolulu Hawaii, you have to go to this tattoo shop. I checked other tattoo parlors in waikiki and the whole island of oahu and tattoo licious is the best. Aloha hawaii.
