① Please send the following information: ・ Design, motif, image ・ Size and session location ・ Works you like by Shiko Tattoo or other reference materials ・ Photos of other tattoos if they are near the session area ・ Proof of age (you may show it on the day of your session) ・ Approximately 3 preferred dates It's okay to provide what you know! / Consultation is also possible in advance, so please inquire. ⸻ ② Design creation leading up to the session date Shiko Tattoo will send the design in advance. First, you will confirm the composition and design with a rough sketch. After that, it will be: final drawing → confirmation → revision → session. I do most of the designs by hand. Therefore, confirmation may be at the last minute. However, please understand that I will always allow time for revisions after receiving your feedback. ⸻ ③ Time for your session!! Please come on the day in perfect physical condition! It would be appreciated if you could avoid drinking alcohol the day before and after your session. If you are concerned about your condition or pain during the session, please let me know. We can also pause and continue later, in which case we will reschedule the tattooing for another day. This studio is home to many unique and interesting tattoo artists, so I believe you can have your session in a relaxed state without feeling stressed.

About

I am Shiko from Syrup Wrap Studio in Tokyo. My work is characterized by making images emerge through dot work in a broad sense (dot shading, stippling, circles). While responding to client requests, I strive to create pieces that showcase my individuality, not limited to dots. I would be delighted if you seek me out for designs, ideas, and textures that are unique.

Concept

I often create designs that blend my sensibilities with elements reminiscent of post-war avant-garde manga, surrealism, folk art, and more.

History

After graduating from an art university and working at an advertising design company, I knocked on the door of Syrup Wrap Studio, where Yabejan is, and have been here ever since.

Message

I value picking up on subtle nuances. I explore what clients are looking for within my art. Because I constantly feel the weight of creating a lifelong piece, I take ample time to work with each client.

Booking policy

Please do not cancel once the design has been drawn, as I will draw as many as needed!
