Tattoo shops in Manila
Manila, Metro Manila has 27 tattoo shops on the map. All 27 are mapped as tattoo studios proper, and each one is worth a portfolio browse before you commit — style varies more between shops than towns. Walk-ins are worth asking about, but the good custom work everywhere books weeks out.
This guide covers every tattoo shop we could verify in and around Manila (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include Fuse Tattoo and Needle Juice, plus Tattoo Project by Sayko Torres. If a studio's missing from Manila's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet — the scene is bigger than any single dataset.

What the map tells us about tattoo shops in Manila
3 of the 27 list their opening hours on the map, which is genuinely useful — tattoo studios often work by appointment, so posted hours can be more of a guideline than a promise.
There's a cluster: 4 of them sit on Aguinaldo Highway, so you can string those into one walk and drive between the rest.

Tattoo tips for Manila
First tattoo or fiftieth — the rules don't change in Manila:
- Small first tattoos are smart at Fuse Tattoo. Your first session teaches you how your skin takes ink and how you handle the pain. Start modest.
- Bring sugar and water at Needle Juice. Sessions run long and blood sugar drops. Candy and a water bottle are standard kit for regulars.
- 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.
- Walk-ins mean flash, usually. If you want custom work, book ahead. Walk-in slots are for flash designs and small pieces.
Good to know
We searched about 40 km around Manila — 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 Manila can take a while to appear. Spotted a closure among the 27, 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 27 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.
