    Came here for a tattoo with Desmond. I love the work and love that he listened to what I wanted and made changes to the piece while drawing it out to make sure I was satisfied with it.

    New tattoo by Desmond at Sacred Ties Tattoo.

    5 days ago I got a new lower sleeve from Desmond. To say I love it would be a huge understatement! I am over the moon happy with how it turned out!! This piece was done free hand with some input and stories I provided to Desmond. Free hand requires a certain leap of faith, but with Desmond, his skill and artistry speaks for itself. I fully trusted in him and his ability, yet still, I could not believe how good the final result turned out. I seriously cannot wait to go back and continue working with him on this sleeve. Oh, and this piece was done in about 5 hours. He was able to finish this in time for our flight later that evening. That said, when I see him next time, I will book my appointment with at least a day or 2 in between our final day in Maui. Thank you Desmond and I hope you enjoyed that Salmon! Aloha from Vancouver, Canada.

    We're from Oahu and my cousin was getting married on Maui. The moment i found out we were heading to Maui i booked my appt with Ku'u. I've followed her on Instagram for a long time now and knew i just had to see her. My husband and I decided to get matching tattoos and he agreed that Ku'u was the one to do them. She's super sweet, nice and such a great artist. Her work is beautiful and you can tell she really puts time and dedication in what she does. Will definitely come see her again!

    What an awesome experience!!! Desmond is an absolute artistic genius!!! He created an beautiful piece based on the shape and contours of my arm. The atmosphere was chill and comfortable. Desmond is the best!!! Can't wait to go back and finish the rest of my sleeve!

    Desmond was awesome! I texted him on a Monday, got my appointment for Thursday, and he quickly knocked out a beautiful piece for my thigh. He was super cool and I would highly recommend him. The shop was super clean and I'm glad I was able to add to my travel tattoo collection with Desmond

    Amazing art work!! Deserves more then a five Clean and very friendly staff. We went and got tattoos on our honeymoon so accommodating and reliable. Would recommend this to everyone, especially since it was my first tattoo. Prices very affordable compared to some! It's on the second floor of the mall, shop is clean and easy to find. I did a lot of research for lines, writing, hand work, drawing etc and I am so pleased I went with Sacred Tattoos Please if you are in Maui do not look any further go here!!

    I went to Ku'u and she was AMAZING!!!!! Totally made me feel comfortable and relaxed during the entire time. She was knowledgeable about the work she was doing and made every attempt to make sure I was getting the design I wanted. Her process is very well organized and she managed her time very well. The end result in my opinion was EVERYTHING!!!!! P.S: Will totally come back for my next piece

    Koi fish by Desmond

    This tattoo place is located in Kaahumanu Mall on the 2nd floor next to the elevators. It's super convenient if you're bored at the mall and want to do something spontaneous! The place is clean, has great atmosphere and good vibes. The staff are always friendly and helpful. They have 2 tattoo rooms so I suggest you book an appointment just in case the tattoo artists are booked, since they also take walk ins. Anyways, I was itching for another tattoo and I'm so glad that my cousin recommended me to get it done here. I wanted to do a half sleeve with a koi fish and some lotuses but didn't get to do the lotuses because I had enough pain from the koi fish. Lol. I was booked to do my tattoo with Desmond. Let me say, his work is AMAZING! Not only he was amazing but he is pretty fast with his work. He's fast but super detailed and efficient. I'm in love with my koi and I can't get over on how beautiful it is. I can't wait to add the lotuses next. If you're itching for another tattoo or if it's your first tattoo definitely check this place out you won't regret it! Again, thank you Desmond! I love your work!

    Polynesian mix tattoo by Ku'u

    Ku'u did a spectacular job on my tattoo! Super patient with me and listened to what I wanted, even moved things around so I could finish the piece before I flew out. Very talented artists! Clean and sanitary shop with great vibes and a great playlist, definitely recommend to anyone. Thank you!

Piercings are permanent, and something I believe should be one area you invest in! I frequented Maria Tash & boutique piercing studios in Manhattan, and have been waiting for that level of service here - and Kenna is IT & beyond! Look no further, I do not have enough positive feedback on my experience. Vibe was top notch, calm, aesthetic - and Kenna's calming & warm energy just adds to the experience.

    I got my first Tattoo from Rachel when almost 4 years ago. I love it more everyday. She is always…read morepatient and invested in each tattoo being a work of art that me and her love. She always shows genuine interest and care for my piece, while other tattoo artists will sometimes give me the impression that they really could care less what goes on my body, Rachel certainly does care. She has always gone out of her way to make sure I am comfortable and excited. Her line work is lovely even when I used to ask for small and tedious lines. Watching her art work transform over the years has been a magical process as I get to watch it unfold on my very own arm. Seeing the mermaid from 4 years ago when she was painting the female form very often, and now moving into geometrical shapes around my mermaid as she is now drawing and creating in a different style. By far my favorite artist that I have received a tattoo from. Her art as well as yoga have helped me love and appreciate my body in a way I never could before. If you are lucky enough to get time with her in either Maui or Alaska or somewhere in between you will not regret it.

You can tell she is very grounded and loves what she does; her travels and interests center around her art and yoga practice. I love when people who specialize in something are always willing to learn more and be open to new concepts. By far the best tattoo artist I've ever worked with. Rachel came highly recommended to me by a friend of mine. I heard she did great cover ups and that's exactly what I wanted done. I emailed her and she responded quickly. With very little explanation and a very poor sketch I did, she took my vision and made it into something beautiful and exactly what I wanted. Her cover up work is amazing as well as her original/custom art. Her line work, use of color/shading, and understanding of dimension and placement made my tattoo stunning. Thank you Rachel, you're the best!

Right when we arrived to Maui we went to the tattoo parlor first so we can schedule our appt for the day before we were leaving. Unless you do your research beforehand, the shop is a little hard to find. We walked passed it a few times before we saw the sign. You have to walk up some stairs to get to the enterance. The atmosphere was very professional and artistic. It is deffinitly our style place. We were treated by the shop girl. She was very knowledgeable and helped us get our appts set up. They weren't busy. Idk if it was the time of year we went but they seemed to have pretty open availability which is good when your in the situation we were in and needed to get the tattoos done right before or our flight back. Gabe did my tattoo and it turned out amazing! The colors he choose complimented each other perfectly. I would deffinitly get another tattoo by him if I ever had a chance. They had bathrooms. It looked like they might of shared them with another business. You have to go down some stairs and out the back door and in another door but they weren't too hard to find. The shop is located pretty much in the heart of Paia which is great because afterward you can hit up the nearby restaurants or go grab some ice cream from Roselani.

    Lyric is the BEST in the business in HI, and we are lucky to have her on Maui (she travels to other…read moreislands too though). Her studio is located in Wailuku, where she has opened a second specializing in tattoos. Such a switched on business woman, a professional artist, and sooo lovely and easy to talk to, she really puts you at ease during whatever beauty upgrade you have chosen. I had my fine blonde brows microbladed by Lyric 2 years ago and even though there is still colour and shape I wanted Lyric to improve the line and give it a bit of oomph again. Lyric numbed my brows with cream and I had brows to slay with in minutes, in a custom blonde shade and absolutely no discomfort whatsoever. I can't get over how great they look. I won't leave it as long next time. Lyric kindly also only charged me for a redo rather than a new session even though it was over 2 years which I appreciate. Easy to book online, free parking outside, and funky decor with panache inside, along with a warm welcome. The studio offers a range of upgrades for self care, different types of brow treatments, lip lining and filling, teeth whitening and tooth gems, etc plus the tattoo studio. All the staff are friendly and the best in their field. Lyric teaches classes and also attends them to keep up to date with fashions in the beauty industry so she can offer bang on products and services to her clientele. Do yourself a favor and visit Lyric's studio to get some 'me time' and self care upgrades ;) I won't go anywhere else!
