Tattoo shops in Hiroshima

Thinking about ink in Hiroshima, Chugoku? Start with the studios: 1 are mapped here. There's just the one mapped studio in Hiroshima right now, so the portfolio check matters more than ever. A consultation costs nothing and tells you everything about how a shop runs.

This guide covers every tattoo shop we could verify in and around Hiroshima (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. The one to know is Tattoo Art Studio Dragon. If a studio's missing from Hiroshima's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet — the scene is bigger than any single dataset.

Tattoo tips for Hiroshima

Picking a studio in Hiroshima? A little homework pays off:

• Small first tattoos are smart at Tattoo Art Studio Dragon. Your first session teaches you how your skin takes ink and how you handle the pain. Start modest.
• Keep the bandage on as directed. Second-skin or cling wrap timelines vary by artist. Follow theirs, not a forum's.
• Aftercare is half the tattoo. Follow the artist's instructions, not your friend's. Keep it clean, keep it moisturised, keep it out of the sun.
• No swimming while it heals. Pools, lakes, hot tubs — all off limits for two to three weeks. Fresh tattoos and bacteria don't mix.

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around Hiroshima — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new tattoo shop in Hiroshima can take a while to appear. Spotted a closure among the 1, or a tattoo shop we missed entirely? The map is the source of truth here — one OpenStreetMap edit corrects it for everyone.

We don't rate studios or artists, and we never list prices — those are between you and the shop. What we list is the where and the how-to-find, from places real mappers have verified.

If you run one of the 1 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
