Usually as a tattoo studio, we would be offering Halloween flash for the month of October, however nothing is scarier than having your rights taken from you.
Our team have decided to donate 10% of the cost of any flash tattoo to the PCRF and WAGEC.💪🏼
Thistle and Fae is an all women studio, we want to do our part to stand for what we believe in and call out injustice!
To support this, book a flash tattoo this October from any of our artists. They have a range of work to choose from on their page. Contact the artist directly for bookings!More designs to come.
We appreciate your support 🤍

That’s a funny looking arm?! 🤭

Over the weekend I got to tattoo this sweet tile flash piece for a gorgy lil surfer girl, couldn’t suit her more! I was able to do this placement with the tick of approval from my mentor.

While I’m still booking majority of my flash for arms & legs only at this stage in my apprenticeship, it’s exciting to expand into other areas soon! (No hands, necks, ribs anytime soon - sorry 😝)

New flash coming this week 🫶🏽 taken in Thistle and Fae by @jax.tatu
