The Stencil

The idea is the first step in heading in the right direction of your custom tattoo.  If you can decide on an idea, share it with your tattooist.

After the idea is determined, then the next thing is for the artist to draw up the design.  The design, depending on detail, size and complexity, can be drawn in a few minutes, or will be sketched out in between the time you schedule your appointment after the free consultation.

When you come in for the appointment, we will go over what we put together with you.  If there are any modifications that need to be made, just give us a few minutes to rework the idea and you’re good to go.  If it’s good to go, then let’s boogie!

From there we get the stencil ready and place it on you.  Of note, relax when the tattoo is being put on you.  One customer had this to share about his first tattoo experience before coming to us:

“I had to take my shirt off to get the tattoo on my ribcage and there were some hot chicks in there so I was flexing my abs.  But I didn’t realize that would change how it laid out on my body…” 

No worries, if you aren’t satisfied with the placement of the stencil, we can wash it off and reset it.   It’s important that you be happy with what’s going forward because you are the one who has to wear the custom tattoo piece for the rest of your life. And while we also specialize in tattoo cover-ups, who really wants to do that?

Looking forward to creating art with you!

The Champ is Here

WWE Superstar CM Punk won the WWE’s most prestigious Championship over the weekend.  The Champ has been making waves in news because of his shoot given, displaying honest feelings about his public disclosure of being fed up with the WWE a few weeks back.  Now, it’s possible he may be quitting the top wrestling organization in the world despite capturing the belt in his hometown of Chicago, playing up the angle that he’s left the organization.

So what does CM Punk have to do with 434 Tattoo, Honolulu’s number one stop for Polynesian tattoos, Hawaiian custom tattooing, and the custom tattoo experience?  Well, we also make waves (of art), CM Punk’s covered in tattoos, and we just won the “championship” title of Tattooing Studio of the Year from Consumer Business Review.  This is our second such award, having captured the organization’s Custom Tattooing Studio of the Year last year.

Check out these blogs of some other champs we’ve tattooed from different areas:

Mike Tyson (Former Undisputed Boxing Heavyweight Champion)

T-Pain (Grammy Award Winner)

Chicago Blackhawks (NHL Championship Team)

What are you waiting for???  It’s time for the next champ, You, to come here!

Celebrity Tattoo Update: Amal Guessous

434 Tattoo has seen the likes of Grammy Rapper T-Pain and actor Stephen Graham get ink done from our team of tattooists here in our Honolulu custom tattooing shop.  And if you check out the pic above (story here), Tattoo Adam had the opportunity to give Iron Mike Tyson a tattoo before his infamous fight with Evander Holyfield

Well, seems like the celebs have also heard about the Tattoo train in the shop and have to see it for themselves.  Amal Guessous, founder of A&G by Amal Guessous Rock’n Roll Couture, stopped in over the weekend to get some work done by Adam.  Marko spotted a bodyguard outside and a quick Google search filled us in on the who, what, where, when, how, know what I mean???

Much thanks to Amal for stopping by.  “He already had many tattoos done by well-known artists in LA and it’s always an honor to see that and give someone a custom tattoo as well.”  ~Tattoo Adam

It’s also an honor to tattoo any and all who walk through our doors.  Stop in today for your free consultation and we’ll be happy to hook you up!

First Tattoo Tips

If you have never got a Tattoo and have been thinking about getting one, then read on!  If you have one or got bit by the tattoo bug and have many then read on as well!

From Hawaiian Tattooing to Asian Tattooing, there is just so much to choose from at 434 Tattoo, our Waikiki Tattoo Parlor.  Add in the unique vision and skills of a custom tattoo artist and sometimes it is hard to know where to start.

When walking into a tattoo shop, you’ll notice many designs on the walls to choose from, which we call Tattoo Flash.  You can also look through our artists’ portfolios to see pictures of work that we have done in the past.  You can find some of our custom work at our website and also learn more about our Professional Staff .

It is a really good idea that you all ready have a concept in mind before walking in to our Honolulu Tattoo Shop, because that way when the Tattoo artist asks, “was there something you were looking for?” you can then reply, “yes i had a dream about a jaguar, but a black jaguar crawling up my arm.”

If you walk in and have no idea what to do or get, that is very common as well.  And if that is the case, 434 Tattoo recommends you look at everything available on the walls and books in the studio. Sometimes a tattoo design will Jump Out at you, as we like to say, and if that happens, tell the artist, and we can start designing your future Custom Tattoo!
