It all starts with a single idea. One day, you wake up and suddenly have a clear vision—a calling. For me, that vision was to create a sanctuary. A space where both clients and tattoo artists could feel not only comfortable, but also valued, respected, and at home. Blue Lagoon is the embodiment of that vision—a place that has been built through years of hard work, determination, and personal growth. Behind the walls of this studio lie countless stories, both joyful and heartbreaking, tears of struggle and moments of triumph, and even more than a few moments of panic. But every challenge along the way has been worth it, because the result is something truly special.

Blue Lagoon Tattoo Studio is not just a place for tattoos; it’s a well-established sanctuary for art, creativity, and self-expression, nestled in the heart of Napier’s vibrant Art Deco district. Our location allows clients to explore the charm of Napier’s streets, indulge in the delicious food at local restaurants and cafes, and discover unique New Zealand-made crafts in our surrounding stores. Whether you’re here for a tattoo appointment or just passing through, there’s so much to enjoy before or after your visit.

The heart of Blue Lagoon lies in our team—a group of passionate, skilled, and genuinely kind people from all corners of the globe. We’ve become more than just colleagues; we’ve become a family, constantly growing, learning, and pushing each other to be better. This environment of collaboration and support extends beyond our immediate team, as we also invite talented professional tattoo artists from around the world to work with us as guests throughout the year. If you’re an artist who shares our values and vision, we’d love to hear from you.

For those of you still searching for the right place for your next tattoo, Blue Lagoon might just be what you’ve been looking for. Whether you're looking for intricate designs or something bold and striking, we take the time to understand your vision and work with you to make it a reality.

I am truly excited to welcome each and every one of my clients to this studio—this is not just a space; it’s my heart and my home. Upon your arrival, you’ll be greeted with a warm welcome, and we’ll offer you a refreshing drink, whether it's water or tea, as you settle in. You’ll have plenty of time to unwind in our comfortable guest area before we begin your appointment. At Blue Lagoon, every detail is considered, and your experience with us is as important as the tattoo itself.
