If you haven't to the shop since my last post, then you'll find some major changes at The Collective.

Right away, you'll see "Lana and the Blue Fish" our center-stage mural by tattooist/muralist/artist Bethany Georges. You may also enjoy Bethany's work at Kalaheo High School along Mokapu Drive. Read more about Bethany and Lana here.

Sidewalk chalk has covered the lanai -=- which is what happens when ICE CREAM is being served! We welcomed Perfect Day Ice Cream this month and the public approves -- New Zealand style real fruit ice cream with delicious toppings, the best bagels anywhere, and cold brews and pour-overs featuring Traditions Coffee Roasters beans. OPEN DAILY 10:30am until 8:00pm, we hope you bring a friend for ice cream as part of your Perfect Day!

Our laser business continues to grow thanks to strong reviews and client referrals. Many clients have trusted us to lighten a tattoo followed by a cover up. Laser treatments are safe and effective -- contact Brett for more information about laser tattoo removal.

We're happy that Lau Mestre is here to continue her tattoo career. We have a small page about Lau, and you can read more about her work at her website found through IG @delamartattoo. Highly detailed Sea Creatures are her specialty!

Stay Friendly!
