Isabel Kendal crushed it with these walk-ins 😎

As August is coming to an end, here’s a throwback to when Isabel came down to Kauai this month to guest spot! She’s super talented and her second time back at Happy Yokai Tattoo 😍 So next time you’re on O’ahu or if she’s back to guest spot with us, definitely book your next tattoo session with her 🔥

And if you’re a tattoo artist looking to guest spot at Happy Yokai Tattoo, DM Brian Sveniker Shay 🤙

Thank you to rochelle 💟 for the photos 📸

Happy Yokai Tattoo is looking for guest artists to fill the third station! Work with Dani and Brian in a shop that cares. Artists must be licensed in the state of Hawaii, have a couple years of tattooing under their belt, and be willing to learn and grow in an environment that can be pretty high-paced. Clean tattooing, good attitude, and great customer service are required. This is the perfect opportunity for younger, hungry artists, who want to gain a lot of experience quickly and are ready to take their walk-in skills to the next level.

We offer competitive rates on shop cut and unlike other shops, we actually supply what you need to tattoo, and do it cleanly, safely and with some class, so all you need to bring are your machines and needles (and if you use special inks, bring those).

Residency opportunity IS available for the right artist after a guest/ trial period! Send a DM to Brian Sveniker Shay for further information.

Come in, get what makes you happy!
