I create delicate handpoked tattoos from my peaceful private studio in the Welsh countryside
I mostly make bespoke intuitive designs, drawing inspiration from astrology, nature, paganism, tarot and magic symbolism
Suzie, Trikona Tattoos
I spent many years working full time as yoga teacher, so my care for the physical, energetic and esoteric being is naturally woven into my work. I only make tattoos using the handpoke method, which is machine free, quiet and far less painful than machine tattooing
To me, a tattoo is a beautiful way of expressing creativity, a spark of decisiveness, marking a moment in time or a memory. Even if the actual tattoo isn’t steeped in deep meaning, I believe the experience of being tattooed should be as nurturing and memorable as possible
My newly built studio is a cosy retreat in nature designed to honour this craft, with views of the rolling hills and trees of beautiful mid-Wales. I am located about 15 mins from the small town of Builth Wells in Powys and only accessible by car
Thanks for visiting and supporting my work, it really means the world to me

How to book in for a tattoo
01 Books open
When my books open the booking form will be available here
The form gathers all the details I need about your tattoo
Books opening will be announced via email newsletter and Instagram so sign up and follow if you want to catch the next opportunity to book
I often receive more forms than I am able to book in, so I will reply to tattoo projects which I feel work best with my style. If you don’t hear back it may be that I just don’t have space this time and you’re welcome to put a form through again in the future
If I can do your tattoo then I will email you with an estimated price and details for your deposit. Once deposit is paid I share a virtual calendar so you can choose a slot and book yourself in
02 Creating
Around one week before your appointment, I will be in touch with you via email to ask for more detailed design ideas and inspiration so I can create something unique for you
I also ask for a few examples of my previous designs which you like the look of so I can get an idea of the aesthetic you like. Please don’t send other tattooists’ work as I try very hard to create unique tattoos and not copy other people’s artwork. Photos and your own doodles are very welcome though
There is no need to email this to me, I will contact you when the time is right to tell you how to submit all of this info.
03 Your appointment
Around 3 days before your tattoo I will reply with your design drawing and lots of info for your visit
I am usually working on many tattoos at one time so I really appreciate you being patient and trusting that the perfect tattoo will come through. You can make small changes over email if needed, but I also keep at least 30 minutes spare during your appointment to make design tweaks and make final size and placement decisions
It is so important to me to ensure my clients are always completely happy with their designs and I’ll never pressurise anyone into having something they aren’t completely in love with
I couldn’t be more excited to be creating handpoked tattoos in the most beautiful and peaceful rural location at my home studio in mid-Wales
I hope to make the whole experience special by inviting you to have a delicate custom-designed handpoke tattoo made even more meaningful with a blissful retreat away in nature.
My studio is located in a beautiful secluded location 15 minutes drive from the small town of Builth Wells in Powys. The closest village is Cilmery which is about a 5-minute drive, you can google these places to get an idea of the area. Unfortunately, it is not accessible by public transport so you will need to arrange car transport to reach me.
The studio is cosy and warm with loads of natural light, creating a thoughtfully curated and peaceful experience. I suggest reading my tattoo FAQs if you want to find out more about the experience of receiving a handpoke tattoo. If you book in with me then I will send you very precise detailed directions to find me, and you can make the most of your visit by staying in our luxury Shepherds Hut

Please be aware before purchasing that I only book in one client per day, and that the minimum cost per client is £650 (not including your stay or ceremony). You can potentially have more than one smaller tattoo for this cost.
Due to the time it takes to mindfully book in my clients, I can not process any appointment bookings or give exact quotes for design ideas until my books open on 29 January, but having a gift voucher will guarantee that you are at the top of my list to offer an appointment to when they open

PLEASE NOTE: there are further particular terms and conditions for the use of these vouchers which I’d like you to be aware of so please carefully read below before you purchase
Christmas Gift Voucher – Terms & Conditions
Booking your tattoo
To redeem your gift voucher, you must submit a booking form when my books open on 29 January 2027. This will be for appointments taking place from March 2027 onwards.
If you miss this booking window, don’t worry! You’ll have another opportunity to redeem your voucher when my books next open in 2027. But you must redeem your voucher before by the end of 2027.
Submitting a booking form does not automatically guarantee an appointment. All bookings are subject to availability and approval of your tattoo idea.
Design suitability
All tattoo designs are subject to my approval. I reserve the right to decline a design if I don’t feel it’s suitable for my style of work, or if I’m unable to accommodate your requested size, placement or subject matter.
If I’m unable to offer a suitable alternative and your tattoo cannot go ahead as a result, your gift voucher will be fully refunded.
Costs & payment
Your gift voucher represents a monetary credit towards a tattoo appointment with me, rather than a guarantee of a particular tattoo or design.
Once you’ve submitted your tattoo ideas, I’ll confirm the full cost of your appointment before proceeding with your booking.
My minimum spend is £650 per appointment.
If the cost of your chosen tattoo exceeds the value of your gift voucher, you’re welcome to pay the remaining balance yourself.
If the quoted price isn’t within your budget or isn’t agreeable to you, you’re welcome to decline the booking and your gift voucher can be refunded in full.
Transfers & refunds
Gift vouchers are transferable, so if the original recipient is unable to use theirs, they can pass it on to someone else.
Gift vouchers cannot be exchanged for cash, except where a refund is due under these terms or applicable consumer law.
Gift vouchers are non-refundable if you simply change your mind or decide you no longer wish to have a tattoo.
Refunds will be offered where I’m unable to accommodate your requested design, or where we cannot agree on the cost of your appointment, as outlined above.
Nothing in these terms affects your statutory consumer rights.
