-THE CULT OF SAMMA-
As the great spiritual leader, Samma Charles, once said “…the only way to be happy is to get tattoos of cool shit…”
And so following this doctrine, the Acolytes of Samma bring forth cool shit, under the guidance of the Father Superior himself, Samma Charles.
Like Every good cult we have the four pillars of cultdom. We have sex, violence, drugs and an unstable leader!
(We actually don’t have any drugs, and the sex and violence are just tattoos)
-RITUALS-
Achieve enlightenment with a soul cleansing and body augmenting Ritual.
Now listen. A “Ritual” is just the branded and culty way of saying “Tattoo Appointment”, with some sill pseudo-religious undertones and fitting Samma’s Erotica and Erotic Horror.
WHAT IS A RITUAL?
Rituals start at 12pm.
-
You’ll be lead to the alter of Acceptance.
(An iPad with your design on)
-
You can invoke a changening, allowing the the design to contort and change and bend to your will.
(You can make changes to the design. This typically lasts around 15 minutes, but we set aside plenty of time for changes)
-
You will be prepared for the ritual
(Samma’s assistants will shave and clean you, get you a soft drink, and hang out with you while he fights the printer)
-
You will receive a blessing.
(You’ll get the stencil applied all ceremoniously)
-
THE RITUAL BEGINS
(We start tattooing. During the tattoo process, Samma’s assistants will look after you. They’ll feed you, make sure you have enough water and sugar, and generally keep you distracted from the pain)
-
The sealing spell
(Samma’s assistants will help with photos and video, and dress the tattoo, and provide you with aftercare)
-
Rituals start at $1,200 (4hrs) and average $2,100 (7hrs)
This includes food, drinks, and aftercare.
(Member discounts are available)
COLLECT A NEO-NOIR EROTICA MASTERPIECE
Drawing inspiration from movies like Drive, Blade Runner, Ghost in the Shell, and Mute (criminally underrated movie. And Samma will gladly tell you why) and shows like Cyberpunk: Edge Runners and Altered Carbon.
Neo-noir portrait tattoos take the dark, futuristic, and mysterious atmosphere of the genre, capturing that essence with intricate designs, dramatic lighting, and meticulous attention to detail, these tattoos emulate the style and themes found in neo-noir cinema, transporting you into a world of intrigue, sex, violence, cyberpunk aesthetics, and enigmatic characters.
tl;dr
Think High contrast images and neon. With blood and boobs.
PRINTS
From time to time, private rituals are held for Samma’s own enlightenment.
The resulting images are Issued in print
(Sometimes Samma draws shit for himself. You can buy prints below)
The ethos from the beginning has always been to make you, the client, feel as comfortable as possible, while making you as uncomfortable as necessary. Cos you know, tattoos hurt…
We don’t like to use the word ‘inclusive’, it is definitely over used to sell you stuff, but if you want cool tattoos and are the right kind of dick, we want you in our studio.
And I mean… we’re still trying to sell you stuff…

WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING
“These guys are honestly fantastic in every way! They are easy to talk to, funny, welcoming, all that jazz- but most importantly, they care. They care about what they're putting on your body and they care about their customers. Couldn't recommend them more.”
— Chloe Fillary
"…means the world to my wife Christine and myself. Can't really put on here why because it's not finished and can't wait to get back in there for some more double days. Could not of gone to a better studio you all make the experience of getting a tattoo from day one fun and and yes there is lots of pain but no pain no gain. The comments I've had so far even though it's still unfinished have all been positive and people think it's amazing but not telling them the story behind it until its finished. The best thing about it is it has made Christine happy. She still kisses Bill at bed time 🤣🤣 so thank you Samma.”
— Dave Kemmett
“Gave me a lot more body confidence, I hated wearing shorts until you coloured in my leg, now I love getting semi-naked to show off all the awesome tattoos”
— Robert Knowles
"I waited over 30 years to find the right tattooist to do a realistic Phil Lynott portrait, not only is it amazing, but after all those nervous years you and Bryony made the whole experience of having a tattoo again such a pleasure.
The cover up you gave me of a stunning Ox Skull has given an old man such a boost in confidence. You have this uncanny ability to take what I think is already a good idea for a design and then create something f***ing amazing! How do you do it??? Eh!!!
Samma, I'm so proud to wear and show off two designs your art.......when people admire them i say with a knowing grin, 'thats a Samma Charles'."
— Collin Webb
"I came to you with a horrible tattoo and went home with an incredibly great cover!! You made it possible that i like to look down at my body again, Thank you soooo much!!."
— Aneka W
"He is good!"
