La Thành Tattoo Studio Hanoi - Vietnam Culture Tattoo Studio

though they do not speak very good english they made sure they exactly know what I wanted and also know what looks good. Also great service (gave us some icetea) and the final result looked perfect.

My third time coming back to Art Song. Can’t recommend him and all the staff enough. Best tattoo shop in Vietnam!

I highly recommend this tattoo parlour. Pooh has done 3 of my tattoos exceptionally well. Colour has been great and the designs were absolutely fantastic. His skill and workmanship is unmatched with fair pricing. I will complete all of my planned tattoos here. If you want transparent pricing and a truly collaborative experience, pay them a visit!

Really nice & talented people! Love the tattoo felt very comfortable here

Really nice people. Love my tattoo!!! :)

I had a really great experience. Pooh and Pac are very skilled tattoo artist. Would definitely recommend coming here.

Awesome shop! Super friendly and skilled. BAC did my piece. He had a sketch ready when I came, and I had no changes or complaints.

I had a very warm welcome in the shop. Anny my artist ( i hope i spel it right) was a very talented and friendly woman. She ask me couple times if i was okay. Recommended this place for sure.

Phoo is an absolute superstar! He has been incredibly kind, patient, and extremely professional throughout the entire process. I genuinely enjoyed getting my tattoo done with him ~ he listens and delivers it with perfection. Thank you, Phoo for making the experience so smooth and memorable.

Got my first tattoo here, and I couldn’t have asked for better experience. Pac is super sweet, creative and passion about his work. Loved my tattoo, highly recommend.

Amazing experience getting my first tattoo from PAC. Very understanding, patient, and highly skilled. He made the whole process smooth and comfortable. Strongly recommend.

EDIT: DO NOT BELIEVE THIS SHOP'S REPLY. I politely confronted them during and after the tattoo, but left disappointed and a little sad. TL;DR: I was unknowingly tattooed by an apprentice despite asking for an experienced artist, asked about it halfway through the tattoo, and they lied about his experience and skill. I also asked for black ink and shading, no colour, and was tattooed with light grey ink anyway. I want to impress on future customers of this shop to be careful, clear, and double check EVERYTHING. The full story is that I found La Thàn on Instagram while searching for a specific tattoo style. At the shop, I showed pictures on my phone and pointed at designs, requesting the artist responsible. When they brought an artist over, I assumed they were the one I’d asked for. I didn’t double-check, which is on me, but I thought I had been clear. I paid full price for what should’ve been a high-quality, professional tattoo, but quickly became suspicious of the artist tattooing me. Here’s why: - The artist seemed nervous and clumsy with the tools. - There were some hygiene concerns, like that the artist never once changed or even disinfected his gloves while handling his phone, drawers, and grabbing non-sterile materials. - When I asked for the artist’s Instagram, the reception team didn’t know it and had to check, which felt odd. - A tattoo of this size should not have taken 5 hours. 3 hours into the tattoo, I thought we had finished, but only the line-work was done. I asked the receptionist if the artist was an apprentice. She told me he was a professional with a lot of experience, just new to the studio (this should’ve raised an alarm, since the artist I requested appeared long-established on their Instagram). Later, I visited the artist’s personal Instagram and found the quality of their posted work — clean lines and polished realism — didn’t align with my tattoo. My lines were shaky, inconsistent, blown out in spots, and shading and filling were also missing in multiple places. I didn’t notice while he was working on it, but the artist also used light grey ink, despite me specifically asking and confirming multiple times that I wanted only black ink and shading. Two days after the tattoo, I reached out on instagram, clearly stating the bad quality of the tattoo and that I believed my artist, despite being told otherwise, was an apprentice, and they agreed to let me come back to the shop for a touch up. They never denied him being an apprentice again. The artist I originally requested came and apologised, then worked on this already fresh tattoo for another 3 hours to fix it, significantly improving it. However, it still isn’t what I had hoped for. So in short, although they helped fix the problem, I was tattooed with ink I had specifically asked not to use, by an apprentice without being asked or informed, and they lied about it when confronted, which made the overall experience pretty upsetting as far as getting tattooed abroad goes.

Wonderful experience getting a half forearm Polynesian armband tattoo. I messaged the studio at night on WhatsApp, came in the next day and met with Pooh. He was free that day and was able to design the tattoo and tattoo me that same afternoon/evening! Pooh was very kind and listened to my vision, he was very meticulous with cleanliness and ensuring the tattoo was as clean as possible! Even with the language barrier, we were able to communicate through Google translate 👍🏾

Such a nice tatoo shop! We come from France . And the work here is very clean and beautiful. With nice people ! Thanks again !

Great tattoo and Service

I’m currently on holiday in Hanoi, Vietnam, and dropped into La Thành Tattoo & Piercing where Booa did an awesome job on a tattoo of Africa on my triceps. Booa is a proper professional: skilled, focused, and easygoing. The lines are clean, the placement is spot-on, and he really knows his craft. The studio is clean, well-run, and has a relaxed vibe. If you’re in Hanoi and thinking about getting inked, I’d definitely recommend Booa at La Thành. Quality work, no fuss, an awesome experience all around.

I had a truly amazing experience at this tattoo studio. The artists are not only highly skilled and professional, but they also bring a deep sense of Vietnamese culture into their work. Every detail, from the studio’s design to the way they communicate, reflects warmth, respect, and cultural pride. It’s more than just getting a tattoo – it’s a meaningful journey through Vietnam’s traditions and human connection. Highly recommended for anyone looking for both quality art and cultural depth.

Do NOT book here if you’re getting anything more than a tiny, simple tattoo. I paid for 3 tattoos and was promised they’d all be completed in one sitting. Instead, the artist only completed 20% of ONE — and wanted me to sit for over 8 hours straight, into the night, in pain. I cried during the session because it wasn’t even the kind of “fix” I asked for — he just went over the same lines again without making any real improvements. When I explained this, they refused a refund, even though they didn’t deliver what was promised. I later spoke to a professional studio, who told me the work should’ve taken 3 hours max — this artist dragged it out for 7+ hours with just one small break. Poor communication, bad time management, and zero understanding of proper tattoo practices. Not a safe or supportive space for cover-ups or larger pieces. Avoid if you value your time, money, or mental well-being.

My friend and I had such an amazing experience at La Thanh Tattoo Studio. Phuong and Tam were so kind and made our time so enjoyable. Their attention to detail and care was 10/10 and we are so delighted with our tattoos. Thank you so much, we will be back when we are next in Vietnam! 🥰🥰

An amazing tattoo experience! Phuong and Tam were so accommodating and we felt so comfortable! I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking to get a tattoo in Hanoi!

Very detailed, Pooh was great, turned out to be one of my better tattoos

What a fantastic tatoo experience. I came here for my first tatoo and they looked after me fantastically from first to last of the 10(!) hours I was there. Tho, my tattoo artist was amazing. She worked with me to create a design that was exactly what I wanted using her amazing artistic skills. The finished piece is incredible and I’m so happy with it. Throughout they day Tho and the manager there looked after me really well, feeding me and making sure I was comfortable and well looked after. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.
