Just got my second tattoo from City of Ink today, on my fingers, clean shop, lady on the desk is super helpful just a shame about the attitude on the guy tattooing. Happy with what I got done, just wish I had been treated with a little more respect as a client. Nothing against the shop itself though, first tattoo healed well after a touch up, we'll see how these ones go. Read Less

It wasn't easy to find a tattoo studio, if your are not in New Zealand. But you can definetly trust all these good reviews! I made my apointment via mail and the service was perfect with fast reply and lot of information. As i arrived in the studio everything was prepared and my tattoo artist Ra is an amazing guy. He got a lot of experience the years before and is an expert in Maori styled Tattoos. Everyone in this studio is very friendly and they arranged a spontaneous tattoo for my wife. We are both very happy with our new unique piece and can highly recommend "Steve Johnsons City if Ink"!!!

Aggie created an awesome design from it, that was spot on right away!... Made an appointment and the whole experience was amazing, staff was super friendly and informative. Im very happy with it, and it's a shame I'm from the Netherlands or else I'd know for sure where I'd get my second one....but never say never ;-) A big thanks to city of ink!

As a 50 something bloke wanting my first tattoo it was a bit daunting walking through the door at City of Ink but I had seen Ra's work and wanted his advice. He was brilliant, friendly and knew straight away what I wanted. Tattoo now done and not only do I love it, but so do every single one of my friends and family. Huge thanks to Ra and the team.... already planning my next one so see you soon! 😎 Read Less

My experience with Steve Johnson's City Of Ink has been an amazing one! Initially due to past dealings with other shops I was apprehensive of getting a new piece started, however this time I did my research and finally paid the team at City Of Ink a visit! I started my Bernini themed thigh piece with Josh, who took a loose concept of mine and helped develop and refine it to a point where we are now years down the track nearing completion a half suit! With a diverse range of artists covering all styles from Japanese to Tā Moku and everything between, City Of Ink definitely has an artist who can create the tattoo/s you want,and at the highest standard. A big thank you to everyone at City Of Ink! You guys are epic! Can't wait to get started on my next piece!! P.S If you're not sold yet head down and meet Lucian the shop dog, he's a real lady-killer!

I typically follow my instincts regarding my tattoo artists and these guys (and gals) hit the nail on the head as soon as I walked in the door. Ricky ended up taking on my tattoo idea and came back with an incredible, and exceptionally unique, draw up. He, and the rest of the staff, were incredibly professional and really easy to converse with, which always makes the process of getting what's in your head onto paper much easier. Ricky's talented ability shone through in his application and the results speak for themselves. I only imagined I could be this happy with an aged tattoo's semi-coverup. He seriously rocked it!! All around a really genuine, talented studio. Let these guys work on your body art. You won't be disappointed.Read Less
