    Japanese Tattoos in Las Vegas

    Japanese tattooing is built on centuries of iconography — dragons, koi, hannya, peonies, waves, wind bars. Done right, an irezumi piece tells a story that flows with the body. Our Las Vegas artists honor the tradition while making the work yours.

    About this style

    Japanese (irezumi) tattoos use bold black outlines, saturated color, and traditional motifs framed by wind, water, and cloud elements. The style scales beautifully to half-sleeves, full sleeves, back pieces, and body suits.
