Simply put, black tattoos are created using only black ink. No colour, no grey, just bold, unapologetic black. At Blue Lady Tattoo, we don’t just use black ink; we use the darkest black ink available, up to three times darker than regular ink you might find at other shops. The scope of black ink tattoos is huge. Whether you’re drawn to the classic, bold lines of American Traditional, the intricate and delicate detail of fine line work, or something more abstract, illustrative, or even dotwork, black ink consistently holds its depth and contrast beautifully over the years. From classic motifs like skulls, eagles, and daggers to soft florals, lifelike portraits, or meaningful script – just about anything looks sharper, stronger, and more striking in black ink. At Blue Lady Tattoo, we pride ourselves on our diverse team of talented artists, many of whom specialise exclusively in blackwork and black-only tattoos. Their portfolios are bursting with incredible examples, showcasing both intricate flash designs ready to be tattooed and breathtaking custom pieces tailored to individual visions. You’re welcome to bring your own idea or browse our available blackwork pieces for inspiration. The elegance and power of a strong black tattoo is hard to match.
