The quickest way to reach Tattoolicious is to call (808) 949-8287 during business hours or submit the contact form online. Our Waikiki tattoo studio team responds to most emails within 24 hours and can help with appointment questions, artist availability, pricing, deposits, and consultation scheduling.
Tattoolicious accepts walk-ins for smaller tattoos when artists are available, but appointments are recommended for larger custom work. If you want a specific resident artist, a detailed design, a cover-up, Polynesian work, realism, or a multi-session tattoo, schedule a consultation first. A non-refundable deposit is required to reserve your appointment and is applied toward the final cost of your tattoo.
You can schedule a free tattoo consultation through the Tattoolicious consultation page. Share your tattoo idea, preferred style, placement, size, reference images, travel dates if you are visiting Hawaii, and any artist preference so our team can match you with the right tattoo artist.

Tattoo prices at Tattoolicious depend on size, placement, skin type, detail level, color, and artist. Smaller tattoos are usually quoted as a flat rate, with a studio minimum of $100-$150. Larger custom tattoos are quoted by design, session time, or the artist's day rate. Payment is due at the time of service, all transactions include Hawaii state sales tax of 4.5%, and card payments include a 4% processing fee while cash payments do not.
Deposits are required to schedule tattoo appointments at Tattoolicious and are non-refundable and non-transferable. Your deposit holds your appointment time, compensates the artist for drawing and preparation, and is applied toward the final tattoo cost. Rescheduling or canceling within 48 hours of the appointment results in loss of the deposit. Cancellations within two weeks but more than 48 hours before the appointment may receive a 50% refund. No-call/no-show appointments automatically lose the deposit. If the artist cannot complete the project for any reason, Tattoolicious will honor the deposit and transfer it to an artist of equal or higher classification at no additional cost.
You can purchase a Tattoolicious tattoo gift card in person at the Waikiki studio or order a gift certificate online with help from the staff. Gift certificates are a strong option for birthdays, Hawaii trips, wedding parties, and clients who want to contribute toward a custom tattoo appointment.

A selection of Tattoolicious artists may tattoo 17-year-old minors with parental or legal guardian consent, but no younger. A parent or legal guardian must remain present for the full tattoo session. The minor must bring a valid state-issued photo ID or current school ID with photo, and the parent or legal guardian must bring valid state-issued photo ID. The original birth certificate is required; photocopies are not accepted. Names must match across the birth certificate and IDs. Legal guardians must also provide the court order granting guardianship. No exceptions.
Compliance note: Hawaii Administrative Rules section 11-17-7 states that tattooing a person under 18 requires written consent from a parent or legal guardian. Keep the studio's stricter "17 only, no younger" policy visible because it clarifies Tattoolicious' own operating standard.

Yes, tattoos can hurt, but the discomfort varies by person, body placement, tattoo size, and session length. Tattoolicious artists work carefully to keep clients as comfortable and relaxed as possible throughout the tattoo process. If you are nervous, tell your artist during the consultation so they can explain what to expect.
A new tattoo can become infected if bacteria enters the skin, but proper studio safety and aftercare greatly reduce that risk. Tattoolicious uses fresh single-session supplies that are disposed of immediately after use, and your artist will wrap the tattoo and provide detailed aftercare instructions. Follow those instructions closely to protect the color, black and grey tones, linework, and healing quality of your tattoo.
For best tattoo healing, follow your artist's aftercare instructions first. Keep the bandage on for the recommended time, usually 2-24 hours. If the bandage sticks, soak it with warm water before removal. Wash the tattoo gently with lukewarm water and mild unscented antibacterial or antimicrobial soap, then pat it dry with a clean towel or paper towel. Apply a thin layer of ointment for 2-3 days as advised by your artist, usually twice daily, then switch to lotion when instructed. Continue washing and moisturizing until the tattoo is fully healed. A cloudy "onion skin" phase is normal and should clear as the tattoo heals.
Do not swim or soak a fresh tattoo for at least 2 weeks, and avoid the ocean, lakes, rivers, and other natural water for at least 4 weeks. In Hawaii, warm ocean water can carry bacteria, and sand, sun exposure, and saltwater can irritate a healing tattoo. Avoid bathtubs, hot tubs, pools, sunbathing, and abrasive beach sand while your tattoo is fresh. After 2 weeks, swimming in a clean chlorinated pool may be acceptable if your tattoo is healing well, but ask your artist first.
Yes, you can travel by plane with a new tattoo, but keep the tattoo clean and protected during the trip. Ask your artist for travel-specific aftercare advice before leaving the studio, especially if you are flying shortly after your appointment. Your artist may provide a bandage or guidance for keeping the tattoo covered until you reach your destination.
