Great work starts with a real conversation

You don't need to arrive with a finished design or know every tattoo style by name. Bring a reference, a memory or simply an idea you keep coming back to. Our team will talk through the look, placement and scale with you. Explore our tattoo services, then tell us what feels right for you.

Founder-Led Studio

Maddy founded Apex Tattooz and leads the team. His portfolio brings together black-and-grey realism, portraits and Japanese influences. Start with the work, then meet the artist behind it.

Different Artists, Distinctive Work

A fine-line tattoo and a detailed portrait ask different things of an artist. Compare Maddy, Sahil and Tanmay's portfolios, or speak with the studio about Rohit's work and availability.

Questions Are Welcome

Ask about the process, the studio setup and how to care for your tattoo. You should feel comfortable asking questions before choosing an artist or booking a session.

Your Idea, Thought Through

Love a reference but want to make it personal? Talk to us about what you want to keep, what you'd change and where you'd wear it. That's where a useful design conversation begins.

Plan Your Visit to Delhi

Travelling from elsewhere in NCR? Share your references and preferred dates before making the journey to our Delhi studio, so we can discuss your tattoo and artist availability first.

Know the Next Step

Show us the pieces you connect with, your preferred placement and an approximate size. We'll help you narrow the direction and discuss the next step with the studio.

Notice whose work you keep returning to. It might be a particular expression, the lightness of a line or the way a composition follows the body. That is a useful starting point; we can help you turn it into a clear brief.

The Work, Up Close

Three Tattoos. Three Creative Approaches.

Real Apex work, with a closer look at the design choices that give each piece its character.

Black-and-grey Hannya mask, skull and coiled snake tattoo by Maddy
Hannya mask, skull and snake. Tattoo by Maddy at Apex Tattooz.

Maddy: Three Subjects, One Flowing Composition

A skull, a Hannya mask and a snake each carry enough detail to stand alone. In Maddy's black-and-grey composition, the snake connects the subjects through the length of the tattoo. Pale teeth and facial highlights break through deep shading, making the two faces distinct even within a dense design.

Look at the broad shapes first, then the smaller details: the mask has its own silhouette, while the snake's scales add texture around it. This is a useful reference if you love intricate work but still want a clear main subject.

For your own tattoo: decide which subject should lead and which elements should support it. Bring that priority, your preferred placement and your comfort with darker shading to the consultation.

Jack Sparrow upper-arm portrait tattoo with a red bandana by Sahil
Jack Sparrow portrait. Tattoo by Sahil at Apex Tattooz.

Sahil: Character in a Cinematic Portrait

The red bandana is the first colour accent you notice in Sahil's Jack Sparrow portrait. Beneath it, the sideways gaze, moustache and braided hair make the character recognisable. Much of the face stays in softer grey tones, while darker eyes and strands of hair provide definition.

The portrait fills the upper arm vertically. The head remains the focus as braids and supporting detail continue below the face, rather than competing with the expression.

Choosing a portrait reference? Start with the expression you actually want to wear. Compare the eye direction and head angle in your favourite images before choosing the size. A small colour accent, as seen here, can give a mostly black-and-grey portrait a very different character.

Shiva above Nandi in a black-and-grey forearm tattoo by Tanmay
Shiva and Nandi forearm composition. Tattoo by Tanmay at Apex Tattooz.

Tanmay: Shiva and Nandi, Connected on the Forearm

Shiva's closed eyes set a calm tone at the top of Tanmay's composition. Nandi sits below, framed by intersecting geometric lines. The two faces have separate areas to occupy, with beads, drapery and linework carrying the eye between them.

Notice the contrast between the curved facial shading and the straighter geometric framework around Nandi. Those different visual textures help organise the design along the forearm without giving every element the same weight.

Planning a mythology tattoo? Choose the central figure first, then decide which accompanying symbols matter to you. This project is an example of giving a second figure its own space. Explore more mythology work in Tanmay's portfolio before deciding what to include in yours.

Vikram Negi's Maori tattoo at Apex Tattooz

Got my Maori tattoo done at Apex Tattooz, and honestly it was one of the best tattoo experiences I've ever had. The detailing, the linework, and the overall flow came out way better than what I had imagined. We worked three days back to back — the artist actually understands pain. Truly worth it.

Service Area

A Destination Studio for the Entire NCR

Apex Tattooz has become a reference point for quality tattoo work across the National Capital Region. Our GTB Nagar studio draws clients not just from Delhi, but from Gurgaon, Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad, and beyond. Many tell us they researched studios across multiple cities before making the decision to visit—and that the result justified the journey.

We understand that choosing a tattoo artist is a significant decision. For clients in surrounding areas, we offer preliminary consultations via WhatsApp to discuss concepts, share reference work, and answer questions before you make the trip. Our goal is to ensure you arrive confident and leave with work you're proud of.

Before We Begin

Let's talk through your questions

Choosing your artist should feel exciting, not confusing. Here are a few things you might be wondering before we meet.

Ask us your question

Match the work to the tattoo you want. Maddy's portfolio covers black-and-grey realism, portraits and Japanese influences. Sahil works across fine line, minimalist designs and realism. Tanmay focuses on portraits and mythological compositions. Rohit is also part of our current team and is available for consultation through the studio. Compare the project stories and individual portfolios, then share your idea and placement so we can help you choose.

Contact us via WhatsApp or phone with your tattoo concept and preferred artist. We'll arrange a consultation—either in person or remotely—to discuss design, placement, and sizing. Once your custom design is finalized and approved, we schedule your session. Walk-ins are possible for smaller pieces, though advance booking is recommended.

We maintain medical-grade protocols. All equipment is either single-use disposable or autoclave-sterilized. Needles, ink caps, and barriers are opened from sealed packaging in front of you. Our inks are certified and sourced from established manufacturers. The studio is thoroughly sanitized between sessions. Your safety is fundamental to our practice.

Pricing depends on size, complexity, placement, and estimated session time. Smaller pieces start from a base rate; larger custom work is quoted after consultation. We provide clear pricing with no hidden charges. See our tattoo pricing guide for an accurate estimate. Quality work is an investment—one that stays with you permanently.

Cover-up work is one of our strengths. Transforming an old or poorly executed tattoo requires both skill and experience. During consultation, your artist will assess the existing piece and design custom artwork that effectively conceals it. Send photos via WhatsApp for an initial assessment of what's possible.

Our GTB Nagar location is well-connected by metro (Yellow Line) and road. Clients regularly visit from Gurgaon, Noida, Ghaziabad, Faridabad, and across the NCR. The studio is a short walk from GTB Nagar Metro Station. Parking is available nearby for those driving. We're happy to arrange remote consultations beforehand to make your visit efficient.

Clients from across the National Capital Region choose Apex because consistent quality matters more than proximity. Our decade of focused work, specialized artists, and professional standards have built a reputation that extends beyond Delhi. Learn more about our story and why clients tell us they compared studios across multiple cities before deciding—and that the experience confirmed their choice.

Arrive well-rested and hydrated. Eat a proper meal before your session. Avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours prior. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the tattoo area. Bring reference images if you have specific ideas. Our team will guide you through everything else once you arrive.

Your artist will provide detailed aftercare instructions specific to your tattoo. Generally: keep the bandage on for 2-4 hours, then wash gently with mild soap. Apply a thin layer of recommended moisturizer 2-3 times daily. Avoid swimming, direct sunlight, and picking at scabs for 2-3 weeks. Visit our FAQ page for complete aftercare guidance, or message us via WhatsApp if you have questions during healing.

Our pricing starts from a base rate for small designs and scales based on size, complexity, and session time. We believe in transparent pricing—no hidden charges or surprises. For an accurate quote, share your design concept via WhatsApp or visit our pricing page for detailed information. Remember: a quality tattoo is a lifetime investment.
