Ohuhu is a newer brand that produces all sorts of art supplies, from paints to markers.

Gaining traction in the early 2020s, Ohuhu quickly became popular for their lines of alcohol based markers. This article will be a quick review of all you need to know about these markers, and if they’re worth the money.

Ohuhu alcohol markers come with three choices of tips: chisel, fine, and brush. Each artist has their own preferences on which to use, and each set of markers purchased are double sided, including two of the three tips. My personal favorite is the brush tip doubled with the fine tip, which falls under Ohuhu’s Honolulu B Series. The combination of the brush and fine tips allow for easy coverage of larger areas, yet include the option of a smaller tip to fill in smaller details.

The quality of these markers are incredible. Coverage is smooth and consistent, and the life of these markers is impressively long. In addition to the long lifespan of these markers, Ohuhu also sells ink refills separately for about $5 each. These refills last even longer, and are a good investment if the markers are in use frequently.

The color options include a wide range of neons, grayscale, pastels, and more. With hundreds of colors to choose from, there isn’t a shade you can’t buy. The pressure control of the markers is also a big pro, creating an easy way to shade and blend colors together.

Price wise, Ohuhu markers are a good investment. Packs of markers are sold in wide ranges, from just 48 markers to up to 320 markers. For a pack of 48 colors, the price comes out to $39.99 (before shipping) from the Ohuhu website (but this pricing is consistent across retailers), which is about $1.20 per marker. Each pack comes out to around that same price per marker, which means buying in bulk doesn’t save money.

Overall, Ohuhu alcohol markers are a worthwhile investment, whether you’re a beginner artist, experienced artist, or just trying to learn how to use alcohol markers.
