ANDY
Studio Owner/Tattoo Artist
The Clients are what I like most about my job, their stories and personalities. I get to bring their ideas to life and have the honour of being part of their journey. The Industry has always been exciting and it has been great to watch it evolve over the last 16 years, I'm glad I'm part of it.
I'm a YouTuber and gamer so I'd say they're my favourite hobbies, I've also written music since I was a kid so I've got a lot of love for that.
I listen to so much music, Aesop Rock, Otis Redding, City and Colour, Alexis on fire, Counting Crows, as far as a favourite I'm not sure I have one. My list of dislikes is growing with age but mostly cruelty, ignorance and narcissism.
Fun fact... I used to be an adventurer like you, until I took an arrow in the knee.
I absolutely love being able to explode my brain onto people’s skin! Tattooing lets me express myself in a way that’s also personal to the client! That feeling of nailing down a design with each other is priceless! I live for improving my craft — every tattoo is a new opportunity to level up, and that feeling never gets old!
Where do I start with my hobbies!? I play guitar, paint flash sheets, paint Warhammer, and paint people permanently. I love horror movies, playing DnD, video games, hanging out with my son, and collecting rare or totally useless shit that I find interesting. Most importantly though — I’m always finding new hobbies to blow my money on that’ll keep me entertained for about five minutes.
My favourite band at the moment would have to be Architects. I’ve always loved metal, it’s got a very special place in my heart!
I dislike Dickheads
Fun fact: I used to play guitar for a Deathcore band called Martyr Defiled.

Tattoo Artist
I'm truly passionate about tattooing because it allows me to express my creativity and make art that lasts a lifetime. When I'm not in the studio, I love to go for walks in nature and camping. My favourite music to listen to is old school R&B and garage music.
Fun fact: I used to own a pony call Floss the Oss!

Piercer
I love the industry because its a cool mix of creativity and self expression. I enjoy getting to help people express their creativity and unique style through piercing!
I love doing crafty things like cross stitching, crocheting, miniature figure paintings, playing video games, generally old lady and nerdy hobbies. I listen to a lot of random music styles from Hozier, In her own words, Moose Blood, Parkway drive, Ghost inside and A Day to Remember, it varies day to day!
I dislike the texture of a lot of food even if it tastes great (R.I.P Mochi)
Fun Fact: People always tell me my memory is almost photographic because I can remember a lot of (useless) specific things but i'm awful at remembering names.

Laser Technician
I love the friendships that I've made over the years in this industry. My favourite things to do are hanging out with my daughter, Laine, and playing music.
I love all types of music, mainly guitar based bands. If I had to pick I'd say my favourite band are NoFx, closely followed by a lot of other bands!
I have too many dislikes to list!
Fun Fact: I can feel when it's raining before anyone else!
Jaz
Tooth Gem Technician
I'm so glad that I'm able to do tooth gems within a tattoo studio, as I love the environment and I love that I'm able to be surrounded by creative people!
I really enjoy going to see live music and I also studied makeup throughout college and uni, so I still love to experiment with makeup on myself and on models.
My music taste is all over the place, for example in a year I went to see Doja cat and slipknot....
Fun Fact: I can open glass bottles with my teeth if that counts (Do not recommend doing this if you have Tooth Gems.... Just Saying)
