My name is Lex. I’ve been in the industry for over 28 years I tattoo in any style, but my favorites are realism, micro-realism, portraits, fine line, black and grey and Chinese ink watercolor. I believe that tattooing is more than art, it’s connecting with the client and providing good vibes. I strive to make their experience and feelings last forever.
Hello! I’m Mila, the dazzling queen of all things spooky. I’ve been tattooing for several years. I started with designs I’d do on my classmates’ arms with a sharpie at school. My work is mostly Blackwork, but I like to add color details. I’m inspired by all things cute and scary – the best of both worlds!
Tattooing, practicing and developing my art is my greatest satisfaction.

My name is Laura. I began my piercing journey in 2022, building my skills at several studios before finding a home at Whetū Tattoo. For me, piercing is more than a job; it’s an art form and a powerful way for people to express themselves. I love witnessing the boost of confidence my clients feel when they see their new piercings. I take pride in delivering an experience that’s both quick and smooth, with a focus on minimizing pain. My approach to customer service is centered around respect and openness. I’m always ready to answer questions without judgment, ensuring every client feels comfortable and informed.
My name is Yan Rodriguez. I began my tattoo journey in 2022, developing my technique and style in local studios before continuing to refine my art independently. My focus is on creating pieces that are not only visually impactful but also align with each client’s vision.
I specialize in fine line and black and gray work, always aiming for precision, subtlety, and detail. I’m passionate about delivering high-quality tattoos and meeting the expectations of those who trust me. For me, every tattoo is a collaboration and a reflection of trust.
I strive to provide a comfortable, professional, and transparent experience where every person feels heard and confident in their decision.
My name is Tanya, best known as Kurai and I love to do illustrative designs. I do fine line, black work and color.
I used to always draw on my free time but I didn’t pursue it thinking I had no future in the arts. I had always been interested in the tattoo industry and it’s not until I turned 21 when I was able to get my first tattoo that I realized I was really fascinated by it. I wanted to give it a try and without knowing, it became a passion. Now I have been tattooing for 2 years and a half and I love it so much I don’t even feel as if it were work. I am so blessed with everyone that gives me a piece of their skin and with all the connections I’ve made with people since I started doing this, wouldn’t change it for the world.
I’m a tattoo artist based in San Juan with a growing appreciation for micro-realism, ornamental designs, and botanical elements. With a little less than two years of experience, I approach each piece as a personal collaboration, dedicated to creating thoughtful, precise artwork. Still discovering my unique style, I work diligently to infuse each tattoo with intention and care, making every tattoo a meaningful experience.
