About Lighthouse Tattoo

Lighthouse Tattoo is a St Peters studio in Sydney's inner west, one of two rooms in the Lighthouse group alongside its Surry Hills shop. Set on a quiet Applebee Street corner, it is best known as a heartland for Japanese tattooing.

Its resident line-up is deep, running well beyond Japanese into American and Western traditional, neo-traditional, black and grey, geometric and dotwork, plus fine line and realism. The studio is custom-led and works to a considered, appointment-based rhythm, and it holds a firm over-18s-only policy regardless of consent. Cover-ups typically begin with a face-to-face consultation to trace the old piece and design around it, which points to how much the room values getting the plan right before starting.

For clients after a long-established inner-west studio with genuine depth in Japanese and traditional work, Lighthouse is among Sydney's most recognised.
