About This Site
This site is for people who don't mind reading. This site will not define symbols nor give you tattoo designs. A consultation is highly recommended with the tattoo artist of this site. Although there a few Filipino descendant tattoo artists out in the cuts, we welcome the opportunity to work with you on a personal level from start to finish.

Due to an overwhelming schedule, translation only requests can not be made unless you have a deposit commitment for a tattoo or design. Sorry! :(

Please contact for more info and availability. For a quicker/better reply, please include your contact info, what you're interested in getting tattooed (and where on your body), and your location (residence) for follow up. Currently, most tattoo assistance requires scheduling and will be done with deposit only.
