Horiasa was born from a simple observation: it’s hard to find reliable, neutral, and up-to-date information about tattoos. Too many sites repeat the same promotional lines without real analysis. We set out to build an independent, precise, and genuinely useful space for anyone who wants to discover, choose, and care for tattoos with confidence.

Our mission

Help you understand, compare, and choose the best artists, studios, styles, and aftercare practices — without jargon, bias, or time-wasting.

What you’ll find here ?

At Horiasa, we publish regularly updated content designed for both first-timers and seasoned tattoo lovers:

  • News & trends: regulations and hygiene standards, style trends, notable artists and studio openings
  • In-depth reviews: detailed, hands-on evaluations of studios, booking platforms, and aftercare products
  • Comparisons: pricing, hygiene protocols, booking experience, aftercare options, inks and needles
  • Guides: style primers (Traditional, Neo-Traditional, Blackwork, Fine Line, Realism…), placement tips, pain scale, healing timelines, and scar care
  • Analysis: safety and sterilization practices, ink ingredients, allergy risks, legal frameworks, and consent policies
  • Practical resources: glossaries, checklists, comparison tables, and answers to frequently asked questions

Our goal: useful, human, experience-based content that actually helps you make good decisions.

A team that knows the craft

Behind every article are hours of research, interviews, real-world testing, and conversations with artists and clients.

Nicolas — Writer & reviewer
Nicolas dives into studios, products, and workflows with a sharp, practical eye. He tests, compares, and explains clearly what you can (and can’t) expect from a studio, a style, or a product.

Claire — Editor-in-chief & editorial strategy
With a background in tech journalism, Claire drives our editorial line: clear, useful, sourced, and always proofread. She coordinates publications, tracks regulatory changes, and makes sure each guide stays accurate and current.

Our commitments

100% independent: no brand or studio dictates our editorial choices
100% tattoos: no casino, no betting — here, it’s ink, skin, and artistry
100% useful: everything we publish is built to help you decide with confidence

We fund the site via affiliate links and advertising (e.g., Google AdSense). If you make a purchase or booking after clicking one of our links, we may earn a commission — without changing our opinions or the price you pay.

About AI

We sometimes use AI tools to speed up structure or formatting. Every article is validated by a human editor, with special attention to accuracy, clarity, and relevance.
