Mr. Siego

I’ve been tattooing for six years at Blind Side Tattoo Studio in Austin, Texas and have used HUSH anesthetic for the past year now and I’m very impressed with the results. Applying HUSH anesthetic on my clients prior to tattooing allows me to work on them longer with less pain and discomfort. When the client is calm and relaxed, I can relax and let the artistic vision take over and accomplish more work in less time. As all tattoo artists know, being able to accomplish more work in less time means more money for you. HUSH anesthetic has been an instrumental factor in achieving the depth and quality of detail that has won me so many awards in the tattoo industry. visit gallery for artist portfolio

Legion Avegno

Award winning tattooist, and co-founder of Fallen Sparrow Tattoo Co., Legion Avegno, began tattooing in October of 2006. Since a boy, Legion remembers being artistic, which later would turn into a career choice and graduating from Full sail University with a degree in computer animation. During this time, he'd draw tattoos for his friends and refer them to a local parlor called Rob-G's Tiger Tattoos. A few referrals and a few tattoo drawings later, the artists of that shop saw a potential in him and approached him with an apprenticeship opportunity. Legion learned the art thru tattooist Spooks Joya, and says he was lucky to have had two other great artists, in addition to his mentor, in that shop (Joey Arvelo and the late Rob-G) and that he'd often stand and watch over their shoulder at any down time he had. Since then Legion has gone on to win numerous awards, media coverage, and has received recognition by his peers as a respected tattooist. After the unexpected passing of not only a friend, but of someone he admired, Rob –G, Legion and Spooks decided to open Fallen Sparrow Tattoo Co. in Kissimmee Florida. Rob's favorite holiday was Halloween, so Fallen Sparrow's opening day was October 31, 2009- the shop is dedicated to, and in loving memory of, Rob-g.

Hush Gel is opening the door for the people who were afraid to get a tattoo before because of the pain. I definitely believe that a tattoo (specially the first one) should be earned, but let's face it, not everyone- or anyone for that matter- enjoys pain. I have clients that are close to a full suit that say they feel they've earned the right to have a pain free tattoo. I've personally tried in on a portrait I did on myself, not because of the pain, but so that I can concentrate on the portrait without losing focus due to the pain. NOW, hush isn't a miracle gel, you won't have a painless tattoo for 45 min of numbing to 2hrs, it does take the edge off, and even when it does ware off, it eases you into the tattoo feeling we all love and enjoy so much. It also helps with the clients who won't sit still and squirm in the chair, that's my work and reputation leaving that chair, Hush allows me to finish my job with both, the client and I, happy with the work. I and all the clients that have used the numbing gel at my parlor fully recommend Hush gel. visit gallery for artist portfolio

Don Taylor

I learned to tattoo in 2006 in Okinawa, Japan while stationed there with the Marines. Since then, I have made it a point to learn something whenever I get the opportunity to work with any other artists. I currently work in Columbia, SC, at 8 Sins Custom Tattoos. I really enjoy doing color tattoos, whether they be traditional, new school, or portraits. However black and grey tattoos are becoming more and more interesting as I get to do more of them. No matter the style, I'm always up for doing some cool work on cool people. The only thing that has always bothered me as a tattoo artist is being able to get the job done without the client squirming around the chair, or just avoiding getting worked on in that area all together. Being able to do interesting pieces on uncommon or sensitive areas is where HUSH has really helped me as an artist. Even with clients who get work done on the "easier spots", but can't take the usual pain, HUSH makes it easier to get the tough job done. And in addition to making painful tattoos painless, some of the tattoos that I have done with HUSH seem to heal slightly faster than those done without it. This may be just a coincidence, but nevertheless its an amazing product that will stay in my toolbox. visit gallery for artist portfolio

Cuzin Mick

Cuzin Mick, tattooist for over 16 years, specializes in neo-traditionalism to portrait work. He is a custom artist who prefers to draw the artwork on the skin versus stencils. He uses a Hawk machine on most of his tattoos, which allows him to cover large spans of skin with saturation in a timely manner. When covering large spans of skin, it nice for Mick to be carrying a helpful weapon against pain in his arsenal by using Hush gel to reduce or completely relieve our clients of their pain. He has been using Hush for almost a year, and has even used it when receiving a tattoo. Originally from Long Beach, he works in Tulsa, OK out of Inner City Ink, which he has owned for over 5 years now. visit gallery for artist portfolio
