Tattoo Gallery by Luiz Segatto

What an amazing artist, got both my tattoos with him and couldn’t be more pleased, true works of art!

Luiz is AMAZING! He’s done two tattoos for me so far. One was a horse skeleton on my ribs that took 3 hours. I, oddly enough, remember those three hours as a fun experience. He’s my go-​to tattoo guy, not only in Miami, but in general! He truly knows what he’s doing!

Came back for my second and love it again. Thanks Luiz once again as always a very satisfied customer.

Went here for my first Tattoo so I was excited and nervous. The owner Luiz was there when I arrived and asked what I would like. I told him, he drafted it, Cool! I asked him how much and he said $ 120. I’m thinking, «are you crazy», for a simple 5 letter name on the inside of my wrist? The other shops avg. $ 60-​$ 80 so I was really shocked. This shop is not in a tourist area, it is located where the locals hang out so I was even more surprised at his prices for something so simple. Needless to say I got him to do it for $ 100 (still too much) but it was my friend’s birthday so we just decided to suck it up and pay. Everything turned out OK but if this is your first tattoo I would not recommend this shop. The owner was not sensitive to this fact and in all honesty I felt rushed and that he wanted to hurry up so he could get to his girlfriend (she must have called 5 times during the 30 minutes that I was there, and yes he answered every time). Good: The place is clean and he followed proper protocols in regards to safety. Bad: Overpriced, desensitized to Newbies, non-​attentive, overrated, and did I say «Overpriced»!

Luiz moved, but his ink is better than ever.

I have been wanting a tattoo on my wrist for a while and while visiting Miami my husband and I decided to try Luiz after reading some great reviews. I went in with a few ideas on paper that I wanted and Luiz sat me down, grabbed a pen and began to create art. He freehanded a beautiful Ganesh, smallish but loaded with detail. When he started work with the «needle» he took what he had already drawn and embellished it. It is loaded with detail and color and I cannot take my eyes off of it, nor can those who see it.
His shop is located in the Design District and parking was easy in a lot next door (I think it was free parking in the afternoon). We didn’t have an appointment, and when we arrived he was busy but told us to come back in a couple of hours, which we did and he was ready. Luiz did my tattoo and his daughter did my husband’s tattoo (which was great as well).
This was my second tattoo, my first in Miami (we live in the Caribbean) and I will say, I wish he had done my first. He has a gentle spirit and made the entire experience almost blissful. Luiz Segatto creates more than tattoos; he creates works of art.

Do you want to come to Miami and get tattooed by a real tattoer? You shall come here…
He is the one person who has been tattooing in Miami longer than any other. With over 30 years of experience on this business, is a specialist in free hand tattoos and is, most importantly, an amazing human being. If you want something that will be forever good on you, and have a great experience while your at it, making something memorable, this shop is the place to go to. You will not only get a rad piece of tattoo but also will meet this one of a kind artist who is VERY good at what he does and will treat you just as nice as he will treat a long time friend.
Before reality shows, tattoo competitions, and schools were even thought of, Luiz has been pushing ink on people’s skin, when there were only 2 or 3 tattoo shops at the beach, and now, years later, he has his third personal tattoo shop, with a great setting, clean equipment and not the craziness from South Beach.
So please, if you are coming to Miami and want to get a good tattoo, and have a good experience, not some guy that’s gonna ‘sell’ you the design, and rip you off, please go see Luiz, you will come out of there happy, and be tattooed by one of the last of a dying breed of tattooers!

The shop has moved to
5582 N.E. 4^th Court Suit 6C
Miami, Fl 33 137.
I took my sister there the other night for a tattoo and it was great. Very clean and the place is really nice. Luiz Segatto did the design on the spot and had it done in 20 minutes.
You cant see the shop from the street but it is located in the courtyard walkway thing.

PEOPLE: we went to this location during our trip to Miami, but we realized after the fact that this was NOT Tattoo Studio Luiz Segatto. There’s some kind of mistake on Unilocal.Perhaps Luiz Segatto moved to a different location, however, the store front did say Luiz Segatto. Anyhow, my review of the place we went to, called Circus Tattoo (we discovered this upon leaving and getting the business card from them… like we were gonna come back!!!) is below:
If you could give no stars, I’d award it here. $ 450 for a shitty tattoo. The guy was a total hack and refused a credit card at the end… we weren’t expecting to have to scramble for cash at the last minute. Go across the street.

Best on the Beach!!! Louis did my sleeve. It’s so Good he used it on the cover of his website. Very Personable and gives great artistic ideas to add to Ur design if Ud like. I give Him three thumbs up even though I only have two. Oh, plus he let my dog sleep onda floor while I got chair time. And yes it was Super Steril!

I actually decided on this tattoo shop from the Unilocal reviews on here!
Me and my friend were on vacation to Miami and decided to get our very first tattoos here. The shop is very clean and the staff is friendly. They really tried to help us figure out what tattoo to get, but weren’t pressuring us to get something we weren’t happy with. I must have had my artist draw out my tattoo like 5 times and he did with no complaints. He was so patient (I wish I got his name… but we were there on a monday night a week ago).
The whole process was fast and clean. They showed us how to take care of it and told us if we had any questions to please call them. With it being our first tattoos, we didn’t know what to expect! I also felt that the prices were reasonable.
Overall, my friend and I had a great experience, and if I am ever back in Miami and ready for another tattoo, I will be getting it here!

Ahhh i got my very first tattoo at this place. It will always hold a special place in my heart. THANKS Unilocal! I’m so happy Unilocal led me to this place and better yet… my hotel actually ended up being a block or so away from it. It was destinyyyyyy…
So on the last day of my stay in Miami Beach I walked over to Luiz Segatto’s shop and I think, Jose (?) greeted me. He was happy that I had a design ready and he sketched it really quickly. It was PERFECT when he drew it out. Then, I had the lovely and gorgeous, Jessica tattoo me. She was very fast and proficient. She gave me some artistic direction as well on what could’ve been a really gaudy tattoo. I just love how fast it was (well my tatt is about 3 inches on my wrist). NGL this place may be a bit pricey but that’s probably for location. I don’t think it was overpriced (Love/​Hate had a fuckin $ 200 min. pshh), but I do wish I didn’t pay as much as I did lol. I was a newb, what can I say? Anyways, I would definitely recc this shop. It was VERY clean. Loved the décor and the employees seem very caring and attentive.

Visited a couple days ago and am really happy I chose them. It’s my third tattoo and it was the best experience so far. Pablo was super nice, took care of me when I started feeling faint and did a great job without taking too long. The vibe here is friendly and welcoming which can be difficult to come by on Miami Beach and in tattoo shops, so if you’re going to get a tattoo on the beach, go to Tattoo Studio.

After a long, three week business trip to Brazil I stumbled upon Luiz: s shop during a much needed break in South Beach. I had walked over to the «other — as seen on tv» tattoo shop and was immediately disenchanted with the customer service experience.
On my way back to the hotel, I came across Luiz. I stepped in and was instantly pleased with the no hassle, welcome to my home attitude. The drawing was done without a deposit and there was no feeling of obligation or pressure.
Luiz and his staff were utmost professionals and I would have no hesitation in recommending him.

Wonderful staff! Great hospitality (especially when my sister fainted)! Came in with a tattoo idea and the artists spiced it up. Very happy with tattoo #2!

Not long after my first and second tattoos I was longing for another one. I remember when I got the first one, someone said, «are you sure, they’re addictive». Boy was that person right?
I love lizards, love them! so after already having two butterflies, for fear of flying away, I decided to ground myself a bit, and get a gecko on my heel.
I don’t need much convincing, but when I’m with someone who does, I could definitely be the worst influence. In my ignorant credit card lead youth, I told my friend Mabel that if she wanted a tattoo, I’d pay for it — so we got off our butts and headed out to walk the streets of SoBe in search of a clean looking and friendly tattoo parlor — and that my friends is how we stumbled upon Luiz Segatto’s newly opened studio (back then), it even had a peaceful zen-​like waterfall in the back (not sure if it’s still there).
There was no wait, so we walked right up. Luiz was very attentive and super nice. My friend (who now has two more — told you it was addictive) feared for the pain, so he was pretty gentle, she only broke two of my fingers squeezing as opposed to the whole hand. I, on the other hand, died of pain — had this been my first tattoo, addiction or not, it would still be the only one — but that’s what I get for wanting ink on my thin skinned heel.
Back then getting tattooed at the beach was not as expensive as it is now. Mabel walked out with an awesome sun/​ying/​yang thing going on her lower back, and I had a really cool little lizard. We were given the star treatment and were even well received at other times we returned just to look around the shop.
** years after my belly piercing I removed it. Then came back to this parlor to get the piercing reopened — hurt like crazy — but it was quick and the piercer was friendly.

I knew before setting foot in Miami Beach that going to see Luiz was going to be a fantastic experience. He has done a lot of work on my uncle who has always spoken highly of him. Luiz is super friendly, very easy to talk to.
I brought him my idea but no images or drawings. He drew the idea as we talked about it I was thrilled to see what had heretofore been only a bunch of images in my head become reality on the page. I absolutely love the work and can not think of a better way to commemorate my trip to Miami (I am from Philly) than this new ink that I am now proud to show off!

I’ve been to Lou’s three times on the beach now: nose piercing, a friend got the cartilage in her ear pierced, and my brand new ink. I’m really happy with this place. They are really nice guys over there and there isn’t a lot of hoopla going on, just some people doing their trade and doing it well.
Eddie not only did a great job with piercing my nose, when I came back – after I lost my clear retainer (couldn’t leave it in all day with my profession) he essentially had to re-​pierce it at no charge. I had talked to him about getting my second tattoo which I have been wanting for years and when I was in there a couple weeks ago when he pierced my friends cartilage (she said the heal time was amazing) he talked to me about their work.
I finally decided on a piece of art and location and knew just where to go for my tattoo craving yesterday afternoon. I walked in and they did a beautiful job drawing my piece free hand and making it perfect. The shading and color is amazing. I’m so happy. The design is small with a surprising amount of detail and the ink is sharp and clean. Well done friends, and thank you.
