My husband and I were visiting the island from California. I yelped tattoo shops, as soon as I came across Aloha Tattoo, Ricky's work by far stood out as someone I want to do my work. Unfortunately, Ricky was completely booked several weeks out, also a great sign. He referred us to the other artist in the shop who would be in the next day, we passed on the offer because we really wanted Ricky. Although Ricky couldn't do any work for us, he graced us with his time and good conversation. A true genuine soul. May God continue to bless you. We will definitely be back and book well in advance with Ricky!

Look no further, Ricky Murillo is your go to guy. He's busy, so expect 2-3 weeks from consolation to actually getting into the chair. Went to him with zero tattoos, 8 hours later walked out with a complete sleeve done, took one five minute break to eat that was it. The man doesn't mess around. Super easy to talk too, and always ask what you think of the stencils before getting to the needle. They were 2-3 times where I didn't love the way the stencil came out and he wiped it off, revised it and crushed it. No joke, he's got a wide range of talent. Check him out. $1K for it all. SUPER NECESSARY

I am so happy with how my tattoo came out. Ricky was amazing and made sure I was in love with mines. From the consultation all the way til the end of the tattoo I was so comfortable. Ricky was nice and professional and made me feel welcomed. I sent him a few ideas of what I wanted for a chest and underboob tattoo and he drew out a one of a kind design for me. The shop was so clean and I just felt welcome and he was so kind and we just talked story the whole time I was getting my peice done. His prices were definately affordable and I will for sure come back again to get a tattoo from Ricky again.

Since the Covid Scam, most businesses have found ways to get around working, reducing services and hours etc. Not this company. Try to get an appliance repaired these days...............never mind a specialty piece of tattoo equipment that is detrimental to our business. These guys brought a mobile workshop to our location and did the repair on site. Not even a wrinkle in the daily operation here, they showed up, assessed the piece of equipment, disappeared to the work van, and reappeared with what was once thought of as a piece of garbage, worked like new again. Who does that anymore? Who actually fixes things? I have a feeling that there might be some serious value in someone that can repair items, instead of letting you add to a landfill and fill a Chinese factory's bank account.

I purchased my first tattoo machine from HI HEAT in late 2015 and it’s still up and running. From then I purchased 2 more and they all continue to produce me clean crispy Lines and solid work. Definitely recommend their tattoo machines to anyone that wants solid clean work.

I bought my first tattoo machine from HiHeat almost two years ago, and I have been using them exclusively since. I work in a big shop full of artists, they all use these now. Best thing is the fast production and doorstep delivery. I recommend Tim and his HiHeat team for any tattoo machine/parts related matters.

I usually have this place service my tattoo machines and buy parts because they do on site repair and delivery. I went into the location and learned that thy are doing tattoo laser removal on premises. Ive been getting my old work removed to make room for the new work!! I recommend hiheat team for both tattoo machines, parts, accessories and for their tattoo laser removal. .
