I’M SO HAPPY YOU’RE HERE

Hi, I’m Perrey! I am a traditional tattooer based in south east Pennsylvania. I am a mom and partner first and foremost, my family is my priority because.. duh. Some fun facts about me? I am easily pleased and sadly gullible. I love to laugh at myself, my life would be unpleasant otherwise given how many things I do and am that are laughable. My relationships with people is what drives me in life. Creatively I love to put a fun spin on something classic, or add a bright unexpected color palette to my pieces. Gap fillers, lady heads and wild cats are some of my favorite things to draw. My favorite thing about my job aside from meeting so many new people is learning what people do for a living. It is still hard for me to grasp just how many jobs exist and how little I know about them. In my free time I love board games, collaging, miniature anything, thrifting, baking, and fashion. I’m easily startled and scared of lots of stuff, so that’s always a fun topic if you want to get into it. My news years resolution is to try to up my spice tolerance, because sometime I call black pepper spicy and my boyfriend Dom and daughter Polly love to tell me just how ridiculous that is.

Above all us, you being comfortable with me and the process of getting tattooed is THE most important part of my job. I understand the fear and apprehension to something as permanent as a tattoo, especially from someone you possibly haven’t met. NOTHING matters more to me than you enjoying this experience. If there are any concerns or fears, please trust that I am a safe space for you to bring those things to me. My job is to make you something beautiful, and for your experience while getting your tattoo to be something that brings you joy when you look down at it for the years to come.

If we’re talking flash that’s easy peasy. I’ll usually snoop a clients social medias to try to get a sense of how they like to present themselves and get a good idea of what color ways will suit their personality and skin tone best. Custom pieces? I’m detail oriented and precise, it’s important to me to get a full grasp on who I am tattooing and what’s most important to them. I may ask you questions to try to get to know you better before our appointment so that I can draw your piece with confidence. I try my best to be approachable so that anyone that works with me feels cozy enough to speak their minds. I don’t give a hoot about my feelings, I want you to walk away feeling cooler and more yourself than you did when you walked in. I genuinely cannot wait to meet you if you decide to get tattooed by me, and I thank you in advance for your trust. Tattoos are a big commitment, and I promise I don’t take that lightly.
