Where Art
Meets Skin.
Custom tattoos, cover ups and body piercing by Jay — a 4.9-star rated studio quietly turning out award-worthy work on Dymchurch High Street.
28 years of ink, one obsession with getting it right.
Jay has been turning skin into storytelling from the same High Street studio for 28 years. From freehand Polynesian sleeves and photo-real black & grey to delicate memorial scripts, no two pieces that leave his chair look the same.
Clients describe the studio as "clean, relaxing, professional and, above all, very friendly." Alongside Sam on piercings, Jay has built a quiet reputation across Romney Marsh — the kind where first-timers walk in nervous and walk out booking their next session.
"Jays vision from my original design far outweighed what I was hoping for."

I get all my tattoos done here, he does an outstanding job every time. Always does me proud — I'd recommend Jay to everyone. Fast, funny, quick at the work and always smashes it.
I will 100% recommend Jay — an absolute legend. Sound guy and quality tattooist. I can't wait to get my other tattoos with you.
Had my eyebrow pierced and loved the environment so much I booked my tattoo in memory of my nan. Jay and Sam were so lovely — gave me tissues and made me a coffee. Will definitely be back!
I came into this shop feeling self conscious due to scars on my arms. I came out feeling like a totally different man. The most amazing tattoo shop around.
As soon as I walked into Jay's it felt totally different — clean, relaxing, professional and, above all, very friendly. Best first-tattoo experience I could have asked for.
Jay has done a full Polynesian sleeve freehand from wrist to elbow. I'm so happy with his work — he's done a few tattoos for me and my other half.
Let's design something unforgettable.
