Established in December 2009 at 55 Maginhawa St, Quezon City, 55 Tinta has been a pioneer in the art of tattooing for over a decade. Our journey began with a shared passion for ink and creativity, brought to life by our visionary founders: Jason Astete, Ferdinand Jay Contreras, Led Zeppelin Tuyay, and Paolo Bernaldo. In 2010, we experienced a change as Marcie Sañez joined the team, only to be succeeded by Kharen Santia in January 2011.

Our dedication to the craft, unwavering commitment to quality, and a growing family of artists and clients have led us to expand our horizons. In September 2017, we proudly unveiled our second branch in the surf capital San Juan, La Union. This marked a significant milestone in our pursuit of making exceptional body art accessible to a broader audience.

Two years later, in October 2019, we embarked on a new chapter by opening our third branch in the heart of Makati. Our presence in this bustling urban landscape allowed us to share our passion with a diverse and vibrant community.

As we stand on the brink of November 2023, we're thrilled to announce our upcoming venture in Cavite, a testament to our enduring dedication to our craft and the community we serve.

At 55 Tinta, we are not merely a tattoo studio; we are a canvas where your stories come to life, a hub for creative minds to flourish, and a community that embraces diversity, innovation, and the transformative power of art.

Our journey is a story of evolution, growth, and the unwavering love for the art of tattooing. We invite you to be a part of our story and let us be a part of yours. Whether you're looking to etch your tale in ink, explore the world of tattoos, or join our talented team of artists, we're here to help you embark on your own tattoo adventure.

Join us on this remarkable journey. Visit our studios in Quezon City, La Union, Makati, and soon, in Cavite, and let your story be written on your skin by the skilled hands of our artists at 55 Tinta.
