Our Story
Primal Tattoos was born out of a love for art, rebellion, and self-expression. Founded in 2007 by lifelong friends and tattoo enthusiasts, Jim Jones and Alice Smith, the studio began as a small, one-room shop on the outskirts of the city. Both Jim and Alice had spent years honing their craft—Jim specializing in traditional designs and Alice in bold, modern styles. They shared a vision: to create a space where creativity knew no bounds and every tattoo was as unique as the person wearing it.
From its humble beginnings, Primal Tattoos quickly gained a reputation for high-quality, custom work that pushed the boundaries of tattoo artistry. What started as word-of-mouth soon grew into a bustling business, attracting clients from across the city and beyond. As the demand for their unique styles grew, the studio expanded, bringing on a team of skilled artists who shared Jim and Alice's passion for innovation and excellence.
Today, Primal Tattoos has evolved into a cornerstone of the local tattoo scene. With over 15 years in the industry, the studio is known not only for its world-class tattoo work but also for its welcoming atmosphere and commitment to making every client feel at home. Despite its growth, Primal Tattoos stays true to its roots—blending traditional techniques with modern artistry, and always keeping the spirit of rebellion and self-expression alive.
