The Illustrated Man

Thanks for the great tattoos guys. Walked in totally out of the blue while on holiday and were welcomed into this really cool ,almost historic, tattoo art shop and luckily they had time for us. I was lucky enough to be tattooed by Tony, who I've later learned is a legend within the industry, and my girlfriend had a gorgeous rose drawn by Juanito. They made us feel so welcome and didn't overcharge us.Thanks so much guys, next time we're back in Sydney we'll be back for more.

Absolute legendsCustom work I had done turned out amazing, Stef the artist was great, didn't take too long, didn't hurt as much as I thought and the music they had on was a great selection.Price was very reasonable for the size and intricacy of the piece.Will 100% recommend them to anyone who asks

Awesome welcoming and calm atmosphere, very professional and so inviting! Piecer was fantastic, quick and painless process and I barely even noticed I had been pierced from how smooth the process was. Loved a good chat too! Would definitely go back

I walked in without an appointment for a piercing. Zoe was fantastic. She explained the procedure carefully and took time to make sure I was getting what I wanted. She was also very friendly and professional. The studio was clean and had good energy. Not at all intimidating. I would happily go back, and will in time once my piercing has healed and I can change the jewellery. Thanks for the awesome work!

I will continue to put all of my trust into these guys! the whole team at Illustrated Man is in great at what they do.I got my first ever tattoo with Stef almost 3 years ago and she was so friendly & calming and she did a great job.returning a couple of days ago for my second tattoo with Wayne who also did an amazing job, I can confidently say that I will be returning and I’m so pleased that their standards are still the same as should be. If you want your tattoo to turn out exactly how you ask for it, friendly service and honesty then this is your place to go!

zo did a double nostril piercing for me and was absolutely incredible, so kind and patient and took the time to make sure everything was symmetrical and absolutely perfect. literally the sweetest piercer i have ever had and i can’t recommend them enough xx really appreciate their customer service !

Stef is one of the best tattoo artist of all time. She has done multiple pieces for me including this one. Conversations so good that honestly don't feel anything. Best, most friendly, nurturing and calming energy's ever. Highly would recommend.

Friendly and professional artists. Extremely helpful admin/receptionists. Unfortunately right before my 3hr tattoo session (which I went through), I saw a page from their portfolio containing confederate flag designs (image attached below).
