I had my first tattoo here and definitely not my last! I am very satisfied with my tattoo, Noriel did an amazing job! He was very patient and very attentive to details! A true artist indeed 🔥 . I recommend him to do your tattoo! The experience was 💯 worth it! The staff were very friendly and accomodating. The shop is new, clean and cozy. The needles are disposable, the materials are clean and working area is sanitized before and after every tattoo session, so safety is highly prioritize. If you consider having a tattoo, then "Needle Z tattoo and piercing " is 💯 the place to be!

Simply the best in Ph. My wife came up with the idea for the leg wrap tattoo. The artist took all her ideas and did this free hand design better than I could have imagined. Very accomodating to foreigners. Also, they gave me chocolate cake, which was nice!
