The artist

An entirely fresh approach to body art.

Jack is the artist and owner behind Jacks Tattoos. Working exclusively in black and grey, he specialises in large-scale custom work — pieces that flow with the body and are built to last. Every design is drawn from scratch, tailored entirely around the person wearing it. No flash, no repeats.

Jack has spent years studying under and learning alongside some of the most established black and grey artists working today — absorbing techniques, approaches and standards from the very top of the craft. That foundation shows in every piece, from the depth of the shading to the way a design sits on the skin.

Every project starts with a conversation. Bring a clear idea, a few references, or just a feeling — Jack will shape it into something you'll be proud of for life.

Good to know

Questions, answered.

I have an idea but I'm not sure how to explain it — is that okay? +
Completely. Most people come with a feeling more than a finished concept. A rough idea, a few images you've saved, or even just a vibe is enough to start. Jack will take what you've got and build something around it — that's the whole point of a consultation.
How do I get started? +
Message Jack on WhatsApp — it's the quickest way to reach him — or use the enquiry form on this page, which sends straight to his WhatsApp. Jack will get back to you to arrange a consultation where you can talk through your idea before anything is booked or drawn.
Will Jack draw something completely original for me? +
Always. Nothing at Jacks Tattoos gets repeated or copied. Every design is drawn from scratch around you — your idea, your body, your piece.
How many sessions will my tattoo take? +
It depends on the size and complexity. A large back piece or full sleeve is typically planned across multiple sessions spread over time. Jack will give you a realistic idea of what's involved during the consultation so you know exactly what to expect before committing.
Where is the studio and how do I find it? +
The studio is in Crowmarsh, Oxfordshire — a private space, not a high street shop. The full address and directions are shared once your appointment is confirmed.
Aftercare

Looking after your tattoo.

Follow Jack's aftercare sheet to keep your tattoo healing cleanly and looking its best.

After leaving the Studio, leave clingfilm on for 2-4hours, after take clingfilm off.

Thoroughly clean the Tattoo using lukewarm water & fragrance free soap.

Dab the Tattoo with fresh clean towel and after let the tattoo air out for the first night keeping in mind it is a fresh open wound.

Going forward make sure to clean and cream the Tattoo 2 / 3 times a day with the cream your tattoo artist has recommended.

Do's

  • Wear loose clothing to avoid rubbing or irritation on the tattooed area.
  • Keep the tattoo clean and gently wash it with mild, fragrance-free soap.
  • Let your tattoo breathe.

Don'Ts

  • Don't scratch, pick or peel off any scabs or flakes.
  • NO Gym for 24H
  • Don't shave over the tattoo until it's fully healed to prevent irritation and infection.
