Big Island Tattoo has been Kailua-Kona's tattoo shop since 1994, when owners Becky and Rockwood moved to the Big Island of Hawaii and opened their doors. The studio operates by appointment only out of a private space, with Becky handling client communication and booking while Rockwood focuses on the artwork itself. As a state-approved tattoo studio, the shop uses single-service needles and tubes to prioritize client safety and hygiene throughout every appointment.
Rockwood's tattooing spans a wide range of styles, including Polynesian, watercolor, black and grey, and color work, and he is also recognized as a cover-up specialist. Clients booking a session are asked to share details in advance, such as placement, size, color preference, and inspiration imagery, allowing sessions to be planned thoughtfully before the client arrives. Portfolio photos of his tattoo work are available for those exploring the shop's style and range. Rooted in Kailua-Kona for decades, Big Island Tattoo continues to serve returning clients and referrals with a personal, appointment-based approach to custom tattoo artistry.
