Introducing New Guest Builder: Guy Le Tatooer
Guy (/ɡiː/) is a world-renowned tattoo artist celebrated for his powerful, timeless tattoos executed with unparalleled precision, skill, and speed. As a second-generation tattoo artist who grew up in a tattoo shop in New Caledonia, Guy has spent most of his life traveling the globe, drawing inspiration from the diverse cultures he has lived in across Asia, Europe, and the Americas.
Throughout his journey, Guy has specialized in large-scale work, known for his ability to cover substantial areas quickly while minimizing healing time for faster recovery. His unique approach to tattooing led him to modify and build custom machines that run at higher voltages—allowing him to work rapidly while delivering the strength needed for extensive pieces.
In collaboration with Guy, we’ve had the privilege of updating his Om machine, optimizing it for his intense style. By incorporating mini coils and reducing its size and weight, we have maintained the speed and power crucial to Guy's technique, while enhancing efficiency to run the machines in a more reasonable voltage range.
Whether you’re familiar with his work or experiencing it for the first time, Guy Le brings a fresh and formidable approach to tattooing that embodies both artistry and innovation.
