Located in Setapak, Kuala Lumpur, Thug’s Tattoo Studio is a professional tattoo studio which provides high-quality custom made tattoo in a very reasonable price. Open since 2008, Thug’s Tattoo Studio maintains a quiet and comfortable private environment where quality and hygiene are seen as the number one priority.

Thug’s Tattoo Studio is an “All Disposable” studio, meaning that they use disposable plastic tubes instead of reusing their steel tubes during the inking process. This helps to eliminate any possible skin fragment contamination or debris commonly associated with steel tubes. Though they do allow walk ins, customers are strongly encouraged to call and make an appointment ahead of time.
