Get inked at Bali ink

www.getinkedatbaliink.com

 
As oldtimers on the island of Bali, these twin studios have a range of full-time professional artists. With more than 50 years of experience combined, these guys know what they are doing. Each studio adheres to Australian medical standards for sterilisation and hygiene to ensure your health and safety.

When you visit “Get inked at Bali ink” you can choose studios one or two, on either Jl. Kartika Plaza 21, or in the Badung regency in Kuta. The second location arose because in 2008 their first studio was overflowing with new and repeat customers, so they duplicated themselves to keep up with the demand. If that’s not a statement of high-quality work, we don’t know what is! Go and vist their IG page @getinkedatbaliink or see their Facebook page for more examples of their work.
