Bronson Hagihara Founder & Owner
Let's make something just for you.
Aloha, my name is Bronson and I've been a tattoo artist since 2014. I specialize in many different styles. I was apprenticed to do asian influenced tattoos, then I moved towards a more neo-traditional style, and now have been doing a lot of black and grey realism and fine line work. I also specialize in lettering. If asked what my style is, I would say that it is a mixture of the stlyes that I have listed. I love to make unique pieces of art that take the best of each style and to combline them to make a one of a kind of piece.
I take a lot in consideration when designing a tattoo. I love to design a tattoo that compliments and expresses that person's personality. Along with the usual art knowledge of contrast, complimentary, shadows, light-source, weight of lines, texture, and a lot more.
Look below to see tattoo procedure, pricing, and healing process.
I do not believe I am the best nor the best tattoo artist, but I strive to try my best in all I do.

Picasso was at a Paris market when an admirer approached and asked if he could do a quick sketch on a paper napkin for her. Picasso politely agreed, promptly created a drawing, and handed back the napkin — but not before asking for a million Francs. The lady was shocked: “How can you ask for so much? It took you five minutes to draw this!” Picasso replied, “No, it took me 40 years to draw this in five minutes.”

Healing Process
The healing process is very important because if not taken care of properly it will cause your tattoo to not heal properly and will cause ink to come out or even cause keloids, which will not allow any ink to keep in that area.
Post Tattoo Healing (2 weeks):
- shower regularly (do not scrub your tattoo but just lightly rub it)
- keep your tattoo clean and if it does get dirty, then promptly wash it with antibacterial nonodorous soap
- do not scratch or pick at your tattoo
- do not let it soak in any water or liquid for a prolonged time (so no beach, pool, jacuzzi, or baths)
- put on unscented lotion one to three times a day or whenever it gets itchy (recommended lotion: aquaphor)
- avoid any skin damage such as sunburn or scratches or burns
- avoid working out for at least the first three days
