Meet Grace
Hi, I’m Grace. I’ve been tattooing in Derby for over 12 years, creating everything from delicate blackwork to colourful, nerdy and completely bespoke pieces.I’ve loved tattoos for as long as I can remember — including being fascinated by my grandad’s slightly dodgy old Navy tattoos! I love fantasy, art, Star Wars and anything a little unusual, and I’m always happy when a client brings me an idea they’re genuinely excited about.My studio is friendly and relaxed, and my section is private, so there’s none of the hustle and bustle you get in a multi artist room. You’re welcome to chat throughout your appointment, bring headphones and zone out, or anything in between. There’s no pressure to make conversation — I want you to feel comfortable while you’re here.
FAQ
How do I book?
Send me a message on Instagram or email me with your tattoo idea, some inspiration images, roughly where you’d like it and the size you’re thinking. We can chat through your ideas from there.Do I need to pay a deposit?
Yes. A deposit is required before your appointment goes into the diary. The amount varies depending on the length of the appointment, and I’ll let you know how much when we arrange your booking.Can I bring my own design?
Absolutely. You’re welcome to send me your own design or reference images. I may need to make some changes to make sure the design works well as a tattoo — for example, adjusting the size, level of detail or layout so that it tattoos and ages well.Can I bring someone with me?
Yes. You’re welcome to bring one person with you. There’s an extra chair and space for them to sit while you’re being tattooed.How should I prepare for my appointment?
Please make sure you’ve eaten properly before you come — getting tattooed on an empty stomach is never a good idea! You don’t need to put anything on the area beforehand; just arrive with clean, product-free skin.Where are you based?
I’m based in Studio One, 40 Iron Gate, Derby, DE1 3GA
