BESPOKE TATTOO DESIGNS

Every tattoo created at the studio is completely bespoke. Whether you're looking for realism, fine line, colour or a themed custom piece, we work with your ideas, reference images and inspiration to design something truly unique. Our bespoke tattoo service in Stockport is ideal for clients who want artwork that stands out, avoids repetition, and reflects their individuality.

For clients looking for an especially meaningful piece, we also offer the option to incorporate a small amount of a loved one’s ashes into the tattoo ink. This is handled sensitively and professionally, creating a memorial tattoo that carries deep personal significance.

This includes sleeves, small pieces, full-day work, multi-session tattoos and everything in between.

RESCUE TATTOOS

If you have an older tattoo that no longer reflects who you are, or previous work that needs improving, our rescue tattoo service can help. Tattoo rescue focuses on enhancing faded pieces, correcting poor linework, or revitalising tired ink while maintaining skin health and long-term durability.

This service is ideal for clients wanting to improve existing artwork without a full cover-up.

COVER UP TATTOOS

Cover-up tattoos can transform or conceal unwanted designs with a new, bespoke piece created just for you. As a specialist in cover-up tattoos in Stockport, David designs artwork that blends seamlessly over older ink, using advanced shading, composition and colour techniques to create a new piece you can feel confident wearing.

Cover-ups are carefully planned using reference images, consultations and sizing appointments to ensure the best result.
