Saigon
Ink
every mark means something
The studio
Ink is a
language.
We speak it.
Saigon Ink opened in 2008 as one of Ho Chi Minh City's first tattoo studios. Nearly two decades on, it is home to twenty artists working across Oriental, blackwork, fine line, geometric and realism — every piece custom, drawn for the body it lives on.
Founder Danis Nguyen is counted among the Top 100 tattoo artists worldwide and is one of sixteen Asian artists featured in The World Atlas of Tattoo. The studio's standard is his: original design, uncompromising hygiene, and work that still looks deliberate in twenty years.
The hands behind it
Six of twenty
Danis Nguyen
Founder · Master Artist
Founder of Saigon Ink and a pioneer of the Vietnamese tattoo scene, blending the soulful depth of the Oriental style with a cutting-edge Neo Traditional aesthetic.
Gary
Senior Artist
Black and grey realism with cinematic contrast — portraits, statuary, and dense textural blackwork.
Tuu
Senior Artist
Oriental tradition through a modern lens — flowing brushwork, calligraphic lines, and quiet fine line pieces.
Bin
Resident Artist
Heavy blackwork and precise geometry — bold graphic pieces built to hold for a lifetime.
Julie
Resident Artist
Fine line and micro-realism with a whisper-light touch — delicate botanical work and portraiture.
LilB
Resident Artist
Playful, quirky, avant-garde — Neo Traditional pieces with a wink, and minimal work that says a lot with one line.
Jetlee
Resident Artist
Large-scale Oriental work with serious black density — dragons, clouds and water that move with the body.
Dank
Resident Artist
Old school bones, Neo Traditional muscle — daggers, panthers and roses with modern colour and weight.
Travis
Resident Artist
Cinematic micro-realism and quiet minimal pieces — small tattoos with long stories.
Kennes
Resident Artist
Fine line botanicals, script and minimal design — precise, quiet, considered.
Zane

Graphic blackwork and single-line minimal pieces — high contrast, no noise.
Trung Kiên
Resident Artist
Oriental motifs meshed with geometric structure — mandalas, patterns and ornamental framing.
