Custom tattoos
Custom tattoos in Barrie, drawn just for you
Bring a clear vision or just a feeling. Your artist designs it with you, one-on-one, and nothing gets tattooed until you love the drawing.
How it works
From idea to ink
Bring a clear vision or just a feeling. Either way, nothing gets tattooed until you love the design.
Consultation
Share your ideas, inspiration and story with your artist.
Design
Your artist develops the drawing and refines it with you.
Approval
You sign off on the final design before any tattooing begins.
Sessions
Simple pieces take one sitting; detailed work may take a few.
Semi-custom
Start from a reference
Have a reference image, a sketch, or an existing tattoo you'd like adapted? We'll refine it into a piece that's personal to you.
Styles include realism, geometric, bold tribal and neo-traditional.
Colour
Bold and vibrant. Colour tattoos need sun protection to keep their brightness over the years.
Black & grey
Timeless depth and shading that softens gracefully while keeping its contrast.
