I came to Perpetual Roots to get a half sleeve tattoo done by Keoki. What I first noticed was how clean the studio was when I walked in. It smells nice and everything looks and feels sanitary. Keoki also has a lot of interesting cultural decorations in his office, mostly Hawaiian but some others as well. The process as far as booking and getting necessary forms signed was quick and painless, really professional. Keoki himself is a very personable people person. He will try to get to know you and form a connection, it's not a business-as-usual vibe. With over 20 years of tattoo experience I knew I could trust him and I was right. He worked very efficiently and his designs are artisan level. I made one maybe 2 requests about what I wanted as the centerpiece of my tattoo and then he totally took over the rest of the design. Trust me, I was worried at first because I had never done that and it's a permanent thing but let me tell you Keoki will only put on you what he thinks is going to look sick as hell!
If you're on the fence about getting a tattoo here forget that and just go DO IT!! It will be worth your time and money! read more
