Definitely the best in the Illawarra. Wouldn't go anywhere else. Sometimes there is a few weeks wait but it's worth waiting for. I get compliments all the time on my tattoos.
Not just the best tattooists in the Illawarra , but the Rand family are known as some of the best tattooists in Australia . Dave does really beautiful traditional Japanese sleeves , his son Chris can do just about anything and his colour work is amazing . Chris's wife is also a tattooist and did a really beautiful half sleeve for me , which I get compliments on everyday . They do great Tribal work as well as custom designs at no extra cost . Sue Rand is an amazing artist and does a lot of design and will spend a lot of time on research and coming up with the perfect piece of art for you . It can take a few months to get an appointment , but this just shows how popular they are . I would be suspicious of any tattooist that can you fit you in right away . This is a piece of art you will have on you for the rest of your life . They meet all the required health regulations for both tattooing and piercing . The environment is spotlessly clean , plenty of work to look at , and friendly service . Amazing tattooists without the attitude you often get in other places . I think because it is a family business it is a relaxed atmosphere , as well as being very professional . These guys are at the top of there game and people travel from all over Australia to get ink done here. You will often see there work in Tattoo magazines . The Rand family are all amazing . Not into piercings myself but cannot imagine that they would hire anyone that did not meet there standards .
The best tats n piercing studio in the Illawarra.
I swallowed my tongue bar outside of store hours, Sven has happy to open up early so he could put another bar back in before the hole closed.
Cheers Sven :)
