Gary Sampson Tattooist

Welcome to Gary Sampson Tattooist! Located in Northbridge on James Street, our establishment is not just your average tattoo shop. As the owner and artist, I offer an uncompromising and methodical approach to tattooing, providing a comprehensive service that goes beyond just creating a design on your skin.

When you visit Gary Sampson Tattooist, you can expect a personalized experience. I take the time to sit down with each client and discuss their ideas in detail, carefully examining any references they may have. Your satisfaction is my priority, and I will make sure to understand exactly what you do and don't like about your desired tattoo. By the end of our consultation, you will feel confident that I have the right impression of what you are looking for.

My focus as a tattoo artist is to create bold and solid designs that are not only visually striking but also long-lasting. I want your tattoo to be easily readable from across the room, making a statement wherever you go. Unlike other tattooists, I do not provide quotes for tattoos. Instead, I ask clients to provide a budget, as every artist has their own limitations and pricing structure. Rest assured, I am completely transparent with my pricing, and in most cases, your budget becomes my most limiting factor. You'll quickly see the value in choosing quality over cheaper alternatives.

At Gary Sampson Tattooist, I work in a private one-on-one space to ensure your comfort and undivided attention. To help distract you from any discomfort, you'll have access to a 75" TV with Netflix, YouTube, Spotify, and any direct streaming service you may have on your phone. Additionally, I use a premium topical ointment with a mild numbing agent to help ease any pain during the tattooing process.

To provide the best possible experience, you will be my only client for the day. This means we have no time constraints, and I won't rush any part of your tattoo just to accommodate another client. Your satisfaction is my priority, and I want to ensure every detail is perfected.

Aftercare is just as important as the tattooing process itself. That's why I spare no expense when it comes to aftercare. Your fresh tattoo will be wrapped in a protective medical-grade breathable film that not only shields it for up to 5 days but also shortens the healing time and enhances the ink retention for a bolder black and smoother shading.

As an artist, I continuously strive to improve my level of detail with every tattoo I do. I am particularly passionate about recreating photos, pushing the boundaries of what can be achieved with ink on skin. Correctly sizing and balancing the contrast in your tattoo is crucial to ensure it is easily readable and long-lasting, avoiding any confusion about its meaning.

To inquire or schedule an appointment, please message me on 0403576534, as I won't be able to answer calls while tattooing. Rest assured, I will call you back at my earliest availability. Choose Gary Sampson Tattooist for a tattoo experience that goes beyond expectations.
