Ryan Foster owns Moxy and he still works the chair. Black and grey realism, color realism, Japanese style and new school, plus the big pieces and sleeves that take more than one sitting.

  • Custom from the first line

    Every piece starts as your idea and gets drawn for you. You see the design before anything touches skin, and you can ask for changes before it goes on.

  • Built to read years from now

    Size, placement and contrast get planned together, so the piece still holds up long after it heals. That is the part people notice later.

  • Every style under one roof

    Between the artists here there is usually a good fit for what you are after, from a small piece of fine detail to a full sleeve. Tell us the idea and we will point you at the right chair.

The Process

From Idea To Ink

Four steps, and you are in all of them. Nothing goes on you that you have not already seen.

01

Share Your Idea

Call or text the shop, or send a DM. Tell us what you want, where it goes on the body, and roughly how big. Photos of work you like help a lot.

no idea is too rough to start with
02

Bringing It To Paper

Your artist draws it up as a custom design. You see it before anything touches skin, and you can ask for changes then.

bring a reference, it helps
03

The Tattoo Session

Clean station, fresh needles, and your artist with you for the session. Eat something first, bring water, and get comfortable. Big pieces get booked across more than one sitting.

the fun part
04

Keeping It Sharp

Follow the aftercare your artist walks you through. Keep it clean, keep it out of the sun while it heals, and do not pick at it.
