Had a great experience with Iro Tattoo. Booking before my trip was smooth and they were very responsive throughout. My artist Thanh Nhan was incredibly detailed and precise, really taking the time to perfect the design and placement. The session itself was relaxed and easy-going, and the final piece turned out exactly as envisioned. Highly recommend!

I went with Chu as she has done quite a few colour tat designs. The overall experience was amazingggg! It was expected to be completed in 7hrs, yet chu was able to complete it in 5! Her colour blending was insane and put so so much detail into it. Thank you Chu and team!

My partner and I got tattoos here as a reminder of our wonderful experience in Vietnam. Iro were helpful, lightning fast at replying to messages, and made the whole process so easy. Our tattoos turned out beautifully and both artists were super gentle: so much so that I nearly fell asleep while getting mine!

I recommend this tattoo studio to everyone! I got a tattoo with Chu, who was amazing from start to finish. She gave great advice and was very attentive! The tattoo quality is incredible, and Chu's style is truly unique. The welcome was perfect, and everyone was very kind. Thanks again to the Iro Tattoo team and especially to Chu for this beautiful tattoo! I can't wait to go back for another one 💙

My design and tattoo experience at Iro with artist Nhi was perfect. From turning ideas into reality, from paper to skin, everything was professional, fast, and warmly supported. The Iro team is very lovely, attentive, and friendly. Shout out again to Nhi, who listened to every detail and small feedback. Thanks to Nhi's technique, the 3-hour session went smoothly with a very satisfying result. Many thanks to the whole team :)!

Amazing experience as always. Got my second piece done by Nhan. Meticulous and attention to detail is a huge reason I return to have another tattoo done by him. I would recommend this studio to anyone if in the HCMC area or traveling like myself.

Loved my experience here at Iro. They were able to squeeze me in as a walk in as I got off a flight and was due to fly home to Australia in a few hours. Was greeted by a lovely English speaking front desk man, who offered cold refreshments and sweets for me and my son. We went through the design I wanted and the size and placement of it and if I wanted anything changed. After I was happy with it, I was walked upstairs to the tattoo studio, which was very clean and looked very professional. I met the tattoo artist Tadpole and we discussed further the tattoo placement before he started. Loved how it turned out. They accepted card payment (attracts a 10% VAT fee) but overall the tattoo was cheaper than what I would pay for in Australia and it has turned out great. Aftercare instructions and ointment was provided. Would come here again. Thank you Iro Tattoo team.

Ultimately, I did end up liking my tattoo, but I didn’t enjoy the process. I would have liked to speak directly with the artist about my idea, which in my case was Nhi. However, throughout the experience, she only came around to look at the scar I was covering and to do the actual tattooing. She was at the shop the entire time, but I had to communicate through her assistant, who relayed my messages and ideas to her. This created a frustrating back-and-forth for me, almost like a game of telephone. The consultation is half of the tattoo experience, but I wasn’t able to speak to the artist directly. I wasn’t 100% satisfied with the design, but I was tired of the back and forth (since every time the assistant went upstairs to relay a message, it took around 15 minutes), so I ended up going with it. Fortunately, I don’t hate it, and the artist is talented, but it’s also not exactly what I truly wanted. The price was also quite high for Vietnam. I believe getting a tattoo should be a personal experience where I can have a direct conversation with the artist who is putting permanent art on my body—not through an assistant (the assistant was extremely kind, no hate towards her), especially when the artist is present at the shop. It didn’t feel personal, and I won’t be coming back. Edit: Responding to the owner’s response- I speak fluent Vietnamese and spoke Vietnamese with the assistant the entire time. When the artist came down to look at my scar, I spoke Vietnamese to her too.

Love my tattoo I got from Chu. Was able to come in for a walk in appointment and they were able to make some on the spot alterations to the tattoo I wanted to make it work for me. Love Chu’s flowing tattoo style! They had someone there that was able to speak English and they all made me feel super comfortable during the entire process.

Very nice team. They took care of everything. The tattoos lasted from 6:30 PM to 11:30 PM: 2 hours for the postage stamp and 3.5 hours for the dog. I only spent 270€ in total.

Couldn’t be happier with my experience at this studio. Nhi is such a talented artist - patient, precise, and genuinely cares about getting every detail right. She brought my vision to life even better than I imagined, and made the whole process feel easy and comfortable. Already planning my next piece when I’m back!

If trendy is paying twice as much here , then you have come to the right place. Owner is often not there and therefore artists lost because the owner is apparently the only person who can overprice their work. Go elsewhere because what they talk about is their flow technique as a point of difference, is what every tattoo artist in the world does. Nothing special to see here people ! Clean ; Yes, professional artist; Yes however poor management : period!

Iro Tattoo is by far my favorite shop to get my tattoos done! I will only trust them with my tattoos from now on! I got my tattoo done a few weeks ago and I absolutely loved it. They have those who can help speak English if you need any help and they are both skilled and friendly! Shout to the team and to Nhân for my amazing tattoo!

So I already had a vision of my first tattoo but I am no artist and I send my sketch to nhi and her team, which they were super supportive in making my vision come to life!! (In short notice too) I absolutely love how it turn out, not just the tattoo but also how they were able to grasp at what I was trying to achieve. They will also have a videographer/photographer on site, which is like damn interesting experience because they are just taking your first hand feelings??? Very cool. And nhi is super sweet. They seem to be one of the most popular amongst the flow /abstract tattoo in Vietnam HCM, so if you r considering, please do reach out. Just that note that only accept vietnam bank transfer or cash, so if you are a foreigner, do prepare with a stack of cash.

I had an amazing experience getting a fine line tattoo with Nhi. She absolutely nailed the design on the first try and it was exactly what I envisioned. Her attention to detail, steady hand, and calm energy made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend Nhi if you’re in Ho chi minh and looking for an awesome fine line artist.

I really had to change my mindset about tattoos. I used to think that as long as a skilled artist made a beautiful tattoo, that was enough—until I experienced this place. From the reception area, the tattoo room, the music, the room temperature, to the complimentary water service, everything flowed seamlessly to create the most complete and smooth tattoo experience I've ever had. Minh Hoàng was my tattoo artist. From how he sketched on my hand, adjusted the design for balance, and asked for my opinion, it made me feel very confident meeting him for the first time. There's nothing to criticize about my tattoo; it's very meticulous and professional. Finished in 3 hours, I was constantly asked, "Can you handle it?" and "Think about it." This is definitely an experience I will recommend to friends who love tattoos—they must have this amazing journey like I did. 🫡

Super in love with the tattoo I got from Nhi! Her and her team made sure that I was 100% comfortable with the design and placement before proceeding. They also explained the aftercare very clearly, and was super thoughtful throughout the entire tattoo process. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to do a tatt in VN!

Got my first tattoo at Iro and it was such a smooth and enjoyable experience! Was quite nervous at first but the receptionist was very warm and helpful and spoke good English. My tattoo artist, Chu, was also fantastic - the whole process was almost painless and done under an hour. I’m also very satisfied with my tattoo. Extremely professional - will highly recommend!

i'm seriously in love with my new tattoos and my tattoo artist. Nhi was so incredible to work with from start to finish. the inquiry, planning, designing, and the tattooing was straightforward and smooth. Nhi was able to take my idea and create exactly what i had pictured in my head. it was an honour to travel all this way to ho chi minh from canada to be tattooed by the greatest. her and her team really made my first tattoo a memorable experience.

Absolutely love their flow style from Chu or Nhi. I would recommend making time to come in for touch up which they include. Mine faded a bit but they happily retouched! I had some trouble with creating a design here but I would love to come back if I have my own design or I’d do their flash again!

I had the most amazing experience at Iro Tattoo Studio during my first trip to Vietnam! I’ve been following Nhi’s work for quite a while, and I was so excited to finally have the chance to get tattooed by her. Nhi is incredibly talented, and she made my first tattoo experience unforgettable. I chose a tiny Leo symbol, and she brought it to life beautifully with such precision and care. The entire atmosphere at the studio was welcoming and professional, and I felt so comfortable throughout the whole process. I couldn’t be happier with the result and will definitely be back for more. Highly recommend Nhi and other Iro Tattoo Studio’s team to anyone looking for a top-notch tattoo experience in Ho Chi Minh city!

My first time getting a tattoo overseas, and it was a very pleasant experience! I found nhi through a random Google search, and I’m so glad I got a tattoo from her because her line work is insane I was initially a little stunned by her quotation especially because I was asking for a very small tattoo and it’s in Vietnam, but after getting the tattoo from her studio, I realise a lot of work goes into her pricing. You’re paying for her skills plus the service and she has a media assistant to help take really nice photos of your tattoo. Honestly, I would come back again in the future to get a bigger piece from her if I do come back to Vietnam again 🙂‍↕️
