About
Hey, I’m Jayden.
I’ve been tattooing for a few years now, and I still get the same feeling every time someone hands me an idea that actually matters to them. That’s the whole job to me — taking something that lives in someone’s head and putting it on their skin properly.
I tattoo at Studio Sashiko in Langley — the original location, out in the Fraser Valley — mostly in fine line, blackwork and black & grey. I take a limited number of bookings so nothing gets rushed: I’d rather draw one piece well than three pieces fast.
If this is your first tattoo, say so. I’ll walk you through everything — how it feels, how long it takes, what it looks like while it heals. Nobody should be nervous about asking a basic question.
Portrait of JaydenHow I work
Four things that are true of every appointment.
Custom only
I don’t copy another artist’s tattoo. Bring references for mood, style and subject and I’ll draw you your own version.
Built for the body
Placement changes the drawing. We’ll pick a spot that suits the design and how it will move and age.
One client at a time
Appointment only, in a licensed professional studio. Single-use needles, fresh setup, no shortcuts on hygiene.
Honest answers
If a design won’t hold up at that size, or isn’t my strength, I’ll tell you before you pay a deposit.
Aftercare
The short version. You’ll get the full rundown in person, and you can message me any time while it heals.
Leave the wrap on as long as I tell you. Then wash gently with unscented soap and clean hands, pat dry, thin layer of ointment.
Wash twice a day, moisturise lightly. No pools, hot tubs, ocean, saunas or gym sweat sessions. Don’t pick or scratch the flaking.
It’ll look dull and shiny for a while — that’s normal. Keep it moisturised and out of direct sun.
Sunscreen is the whole game. SPF 30+ on the piece keeps the black black for decades. Touch-ups on my work are free within the first year.
