How to Design a Tattoo Stencil for an Ongoing Tattoo

An oldie but goodie!

Check out Tattoo Adam designing a stencil for a customer in this video shot in our Waikiki tattoo shop 434 Tattoo.

He starts with tracing the arm to design the stencil to fit in the space that the tattoo is going to go.  Once the space is determined, he will begin drawing the stencil out.

In this case, the customer provided imagery to Tattoo Adam.  While that is not necessary, it is helpful when someone has something more specific in mind to the tattoo artist.

Our Tattoo studio in Waikiki has a library of books covering all styles of tattooing, as well as tattoo flash, and our own archive of past works.  Please feel free to swing by and ask for a free consultation.  Our goal is to give you the best tattoo and experience in a Hawaii tattoo shop ever so we’re here to help!

Need a Tattoo Cover Up in Hawaii?

America’s Got Talent Host Nick Cannon covers up tattoo!

The former Mr. Mariah Carey, recently got a new tattoo to cover up old one on his arm, which once honored the now defunct marriage.  He also had another piece about his ex on his back tattooed with a cover up as well.

While people suggested laser, it is reported that the entertainer did not wish to erase the history from his life, merely he wished to put something new to symbolize that he was over what had occurred and was moving on.

Not everyone’s story or reason for getting a tattoo removed or covered up is the same but it’s fairly common for people to get ex-lover’s names, faces, etc. removed or covered up with a new tattoo.

If you are in need of a cover-up, consider coming to 434 Tattoo our Waikiki tattoo studio.  Led by Tattoo Adam and his 20 plus years of experience, our team has seen just about everything and has experience working in multiple styles of tattooing.

We specialize in Custom tattooing, which provides the client with a totally unique piece, and our work is perfect for doing a cover-up.  We are open 7 days a week from 10a-10p.  Come on by with your chosen picture or design or feel free to look through our library of books and tattoo flash.

Tebori Tattoo Artist in Hawaii

Screen shot 2015-03-01 at 1.38.11 PM

Tebori tattooing is the traditional Japanese style of tattooing by hand.

It was how the masters of old created intricate bodysuits and more depicting Japanese legends and beliefs.  Though the tattoo machine has grown in popularity over time, tebori is still a meaningful and relevant practice, with far fewer artists practicing the tradition.

Guess what?  Though it would be cool if you did, you don’t have to go to Japan to get tebori because Tattoo Adam, also known as Horiyume, practices tebori in 434 Tattoo our Waikiki Tattoo studio!

A few years back, with the help of some members of 434 Tattoo Ohana, a private space (pictured) was created to allow for traditional japanese tattoo sessions.  If you are interested in tebori and would like to learn more about getting a tattoo in this style, please feel free to contact us at the number or email below.  We’d be more than happy to assist you with any and all of your tattoo questions and needs!
