I had a really great experience at Buku. I didn’t have an appointment and at first my friend and I were told to come back much later. The owner, Ray, saw us sitting out front and he took the time to listen to what I was looking for and ultimately decided to do the tattoo a few moments later since it was pretty simple. He took the time to make sure the placement was just right. The whole process was very quick and I could barely feel getting the tattoo. It ended up looking amazing! I am very happy. Ray was very nice and made me feel comfortable throughout the process. I highly recommend this tattoo shop!

I started by going for a piercing from Rachelle, then contacting the shop for a tattoo. Caitlin did an amazing piece on me that completely exceeded my expectations and I've been so happy with the outcome of both my piercings and my tattoo!!! Amazing, skilled artists for sure! Definitely contact them for tattoo or piercing needs!!!

I could not have asked for a better experience for my first professional tattoo! Anya is absolutely amazing at what she does and gets it done right. The vibes in the shop are top notch and you feel like family right when you walk In. I'll be going back for any other tattoos I get.

This is an awesome tattoo shop. All the people that work here are friendly, welcoming, and the atmosphere is great. Ray did an amazing job on my tattoos, going above my expectations. I appreciated how my tattoos were treated like a piece of artwork and time was spent making sure we were both happy with the design before getting started. The shop is run very professionally, but still has a laid back feel and I honestly just enjoy hanging out in there. I have only had work done by Ray, but being in there I see that all the artists are very talented and take their work seriously. Great place!

Searched for a year and a half when I moved to St. Pete for an artist I trusted.. found Anya thru Instagram, and loved her work. I will continue to go back her, to see her for every tattoo I get while down here! She is friendly, awesome, great vibes and music. Amazing quality tattoos all around. Bring yourself and your friends here!

I love this tattoo shop and would highly recommend it. Everyone there is extremely talented, but Anya does the most amazing work and has a very unique style. She doesn’t just give you a tattoo, she gives you art.

Not sure where to start, the studio was clean and gave of super positive vibes. Shaggy was extremely friendly and accommodating. He was able to get myself and two of my friends in at the last minute and stayed pretty late to give each of us the art that we wanted. We are all very happy with our pieces and will be making appointments to go back in the future. Safe, quality art at a very fair price. Thank you Shaggy, for making our girls weekend that much more meaningful!

This place is awesome! Tattooed 5 people in no time!
I've been to a lot of shops, but this was one of the best. Shaggy is a great artist, let alone a great guy. He did a perfect palm tree free machine style with no drawing or stencil. I also left my ID there and he tracked me down and delivered it to me afterwards. 100% great customer service during, and after. I can't recommend this place enough. Shaggy, I'll see you soon man! Get that ink ready!

My friends and I decided to get matching Golden Girls tattoos and we're so lucky to get Caitlin as our artist. She was so sweet and worked with us every step of the way to make sure our designs were exactly what we wanted. The prices we're very reasonable. Highly recommend using her if you're in the area!

Had a great experience at Buku! Shaggy brought my tattoo to life better than I ever expected! His line work is really well done, and the shading is to die for! Buku was the perfect place to get my first tattoo, everyone was super nice and supportive! They also had the best dreadlocks this side of the bay! Thanks for the sick barbed wire, maybe I'll have to come back and get another tattoo soon!

I've been back to Buku twice and have gotten two more tattoos done by the lovely Anya Karuna. She spent a lot of time with me to make sure the tattoos would be pieces I'd absolutely love. I loved the first one she did for me so much that I asked her to do a memorial tattoo for my deceased father. Her linework and shading on both are impeccable and she has great taste when it comes to design!
