Oh My Ink, a Hong Kong company that builds AI Tattoo Try-On Machines for the tattoo industry, has begun deploying its machines with tattoo studios in the United States, its first market in the Americas. The launch makes the United States the third market for the model, after Hong Kong and France, in which a studio loads its own artists’ designs into an in-store machine and walk-ins preview a tattoo on their own skin before booking.
Each machine carries the host studio’s own artists’ designs rather than generic flash. A walk-in or client can directly browse Noble Art tattoo artists’ designs and preview any design on their own skin through the try-on machine in the store before committing. Clients can compare several designs and placements in one visit rather than choosing from paper or a screen. Studios use the machine to convert walk-in interest into booked tattoos while keeping every design tied to the artist who made it.
The first US machine is live at Noble Art, a tattoo studio in Miami, the States.
“A tattoo is one of the few purchases a person cannot return, so the decision carries real weight,” said John Ip, founder of Oh My Ink. “Letting a client preview a studio’s design on their own skin before booking removes the guesswork, and it sends a more confident client to the artist.”
The company frames the try-on step as a way to send more confident clients to artists under its “See Before You Ink” approach, not as a replacement for permanent tattoos or tattoo artists. The US tattoo market is projected to reach $1.25 billion by 2032, according to Fortune Business Insights, driven by a rising number of studios.
“Our Hong Kong machines already carry designs from more than 40 local tattoo artists, and the model now runs globally across three markets after this US launch,” said Ip. “Every design a client tries on links back to the artist who drew it.”
