Ink & Water Tattoo

Ink & Water has a reputation for being the best of the best, and truly lives up to it. I found my artist, Ola, on Instagram and waited what seemed like forever for her books to open (it was only a couple of months, but when you know you know). I jumped at the chance to have such a talented artist for my first piece.

The shop itself was a little challenging to find. Since the signage hasn't been updated, I wondered if I was at the right place.... Walking in though, you know. Whoever was the concept designer for the shop - major kudos to you. You walk in to what looks like a street market at night, it's dark and has that old school grunge feel. Even the front of the shop is meticulously maintained, just spotless.

Huge plus that the water comes in tetra packs. Such a small change to help save our environment!

Walking to the back of the shop, you'll notice how drastic the change is from the front of the shop to the back. I was tattooed mid day, and walking back was like walking into a neon cathedral. White walls, concrete floors and massive sloping white lights on the ceiling, it was truly gorgeous. Definitely calming.

Front desk was kind and patient while I took ages to sign in (nerves), as well as when I was asking questions about a design for my husband afterwards.

I would recommend this shop to everyone.

Had a fantastic experience here getting a new tattoo done. The studio is super cool and well kept and everyone I interacted with was so nice and professional. Sasha is an AMAZING artist and I'd highly recommend her—she took my vague and mismatched ideas and turned out a stellar tattoo.

Got my tat here as it was recommended by a friend. I went to have it done and Sasha is a very great artist to work with. She is patient and very artistic, she was able to suggest ideas that I didnt know would help make my piece pop out even further. Amazing shop, great atmosphere and I highly recommend this place.

That is one amazing place to get tattooed! Love the location, love the ambience and also the cleanliness. I got my tattoo from Gianina and she showed great dedication. She let me take my time with deciding as it was my first tattoo!
Definitely recommend eyes closed!!

Probably the friendliest, and most welcoming tattoo shop I’ve ever been to! I would highly recommend this tattoo shop. I went to Ink & Water to have a tattoo done by Rye. I got a sternum tattoo done, and Rye was so professional, always made sure that I was comfortable and talked me through the whole process. He also answered any questions that I had very openly, and I could tell that he really cared about my experience. I will definitely be going back in the future, and am looking forward to it!
