Sam Walker
Sam is a mother to a remarkable 9 year old boy, who is her whole world. She loves sushi, beer and crafting. You can find some her prints, painted saws and pressed framed flowers at the shop.
Sam enjoys doing black and grey work known especially for doing floral, geometric dot work and her whip shading. She's also known to do micro tattoos, smaller work with detail. She took home a first place award from Oklahoma City for the best geometric / dot work TWICE! Sam is loud and full of puns, with a potty mouth and no filter. This often leads to her clients laughing throughout their tattoos, returning for more and quickly becoming a part of the coven family.

Nikki may seem all business, but don't let that fool you, she loves cutting up with her clients. Nikki makes sure her clients leave with a story to tell and a tattoo they love. Nikki enjoys all types of tattoos and has a variety of favorites. She can knock out some killer black and gray shading, but she also loves to do bright bold color work.
