I never really thought that Tiki was alive and well except for at our Tiki Bar, aptly named the Lava Lounge, from our small apartment to now our new home. From the humble beginnings as a Tiki enthusiast from my parents visits to Hawaii, my wife and I got tattoos recently to commemorate not only our love for all things Tiki and Hawaiian but to celebrate our 1 year wedding anniversary! We didn't have time to visit a tattoo shop on Oahu for our Honeymoon so we found a place here. The male Tiki was custom and formed to my liking. The female Tiki was completely custom for my wife. So, many thanks to Tiki Central for keeping alive Tiki. To all the companies and artists (of which there are dozens and dozens to mention) who make our dreams possible. Thanks! You are all to be applauded! Mahalo!
