Ka'eo Hawaii Tattoo & Creative Studio

"In October 2023, CHĕ Pilago did a piece on my leg, and I loved it. Everywhere I went for the last few days I was on the island, everyone was like, "Wow, that's awesome," and asked where I got it. I must have shown 10 people his IG account. I appreciate him and his patience with me, and can't wait for him to finish the rest of my leg someday. When I am back on the Island or if he comes to Arizona."

"Pashia did such a good job with my tattoo! Between working together to create and personalize one of her designs and using her magic to help it come to life. To making the whole process so comfortable and easygoing. Ka’eo is my favorite tattoo spots on Big Island the art, music, people and vibes make this spot so special. Highly recommend visiting and getting ink from all the talented artists!"

"Had such an amazing experience at Kā’eo Tattoo. Mehana and the rest of the artists are so welcoming and professional. The space is clean and the staff is friendly and inviting. They take walkins but are also available for appointments if you want something more custom. Such a great time getting my tattoo here!"

"My family vacationed in Kailua-Kona and wanted to get tattoos while we were there. I have been to many tattoo artists but Pashia and Emily made our family feel welcomed and by far gave us the best tattooing experience I’ve had. From the initial scheduling process to the end result, we were very impressed (especially since two out of the four in the group were getting their first tattoos). I went in to my scheduled appointment with Em and came back the next day prior to flying home to get a flash piece by Pashia. If you are looking for a great place to get tattoos locally, or while on vacation, check them out! I met several other artists during my appointments who seemed just as great as the others! My family is already excited to go back within the next couple years for more!! I added 3/5 photos of the pieces we got."
