Best Japanese Tattoo Artist in Hawaii

The allure of the East has long held the West captive.

In the world of tattooing, it is no different.

At an early age, Horiyume Tattoo Adam, Owner & Lead Artist here at our Waikiki Tattoo Shop 434 Tattoo discovered a love of art and from there was drawn to Japanese tattooing.

Specializing in custom tattooing and able to tattoo styles ranging from old school, new school,  & Americana, to Hawaiian & Polynesian, Horiyume’s Japanese tattoo work is one of a kind.  I

nspired by and having learned from the Master Tattoo Artist Horiyoshi III, Horiyume even practices the traditional tebori tattoo in Hawaii.

If you are looking for as authentic an experience of a Japanese tattoo without going to Japan, stop by.  We’re open 7 days a week, from 10a – 10p.

Appointments guarantee your slot but walk-in appointments are always welcome!

Looking forward to inking ya!

Have Tattoos, Will Travel… to Japan

Tatto Adam, Owner and President, of Waikiki custom tattoos studio, 434 Tattoo, enjoys travel because of the benefits it has for the Soul.

Recently Tattoo Adam took a jump across the Pacific Ocean from our Hawaii tattoo shop to the alluring Asian Pacific country of Japan.  Not a travel newbie by far, Adam has journeyed to the Land of the Rising Star on many an occasion to get custom tattoo work from the well-known and widely respected, Japanese Tattoo Master Horiyoshi III!  Horyioshi has done much of the work on Tattoo Adam’s body and this trip is particularly special as when he returns, Tattoo Adam will nearly be suited!

Check out these images from his first night on the trip:

Befriended a bloke from New Zealand, Mark, who would go on to act as an interpreter along the way!

 

“From the bars all evening to the tattoo session in the morning, Sensei recommends no drinking before a tattoo…”

 

Sleep is the cousin of Death and there is a reason we call Home, Home.  Tattoo Adam was back out later that evening to discover…

A suprise!  Oh, the tattoo lineage and relations that you find!

 

Tattoos might get flak here and there from people but they serve as meaningful symbols that unite people from all walks of Life!

With that, if you’re looking for something to do in Waikiki, come and get a tattoo while visiting Hawaii!

Recently Tattoo Adam made his way to Yokohama, Japan, to get work done on himself by legendary Japanese Tattoo Artist, Horiyoshi III. The picture above shows Adam as he is going through the experience of getting tattooed himself while there.

“The way I see it, if you dish out that kind of pain, you have to be able to understand it yourself.” He remarks as we go through the process, watching sped-up versions of the experience in Adam’s Waikiki Tattoo Studio, 434 Tattoo.  A total of six sessions later and we have an image that Horiyoshi III drew up in the past that Adam wished to add to the piece.

“My goal this year is to be suited.” Adam comments as he enters his 22nd year in the tattoo industry.  “The fourth session was the most intense.” He says going back to the tattoo session with Horiyoshi.  “He went over the same place.”  He points to the fine details of the figure’s hair that Horiyoshi  created on his torso.

“You learn more and more the correct approach on how to do a big tattoo.”  He says with a reverence for the Master Tattooist and Teacher.  To this day, Horiyoshi spends time drawing and painting, ever perfecting a craft that he is already considered one-of-a-kind and a true Legend.

When asked how he learned of Horiyoshi’s work, Adam replied, “I saw his work in of a magazine while still an apprentice in Milwaukee.”  Adam later sought out the Japanese Tattooist and the rest as they say, is history…
