Spooky season is upon us!

With lockdown hindering us from opening until Level 2 resulting in canceling out tattooing for most of September, it has got us thinking about Halloween!

Bats, skulls, reapers, and all of the creepy crawlies in between!

Here are some spooky black and grey tattoo favorites done here at Sunset Tattoo!

Please email info@sunsettattoo.co.nz to book!

Peachy keen

The peach is a very popular tattoo all around the world.

Not only do they look sweet they also carry a significant meaning.

In Japanese culture, a peach symbolises immortality and long healthy life.

You also often see peaches combined with objects and other life forms, for example, a fish.

Peaches have a huge amount of health benefits too and did we mention they taste delicious?

Here are some peach tattoos that have been created in our tattoo studio!

To book in, please email info@sunsettattoo.co.nz.

Hold the nipple covers!

The pin-up girl has been a hugely popular subject matter in American Traditional tattooing since its conception.

Sailors would get an image of a pin-up girl before, or during, their time serving off-shore in the navy. This was because the sailors did not get to see their wife or a woman for, sometimes, years on end.

Here are some recent pin-up girls from our tattooist, Milky.
