Come in, Breath, Relax.
A tattoo experience built on presence, care and quiet intention.
Step into a private room filled with plants, natural light and beautiful artwork. A Japanese tea set ready for a brew, a sound system for you to connect to and play your music. Comfy seating, clean air, and enough calm that you can feel it as soon as you walk in. Located in Colchester, Essex, UK.
Every appointment here is intentional, thorough, and unhurried. I take my time because your skin deserves patience and your idea deserves full attention. No rushing. No detail overlooked. Just grounded, focused work in a space built entirely around you.
This is your time.
The Artist
I’m Sid, the hand behind BAHSI.
I tattoo because I’m fascinated by the ceremony of it. Two people sitting down together. One idea becoming something tangible. An energy exchange that ends with art living on a human body. There’s something spiritual in that, a grounded, intentional act of trust and collaboration. That’s the only kind of tattooing I’m interested in.
My room is a private, plant-filled space with natural light, comfy seating, and beautiful art on the walls. There’s a Japanese tea set if you want a cup before we start, and a sound system you can connect to so you can play music that resonates with you. It’s clean, calm, and built for steady, unhurried work. I want you to feel comfortable here.
It’s your time.
The tattoos I love most sit at the intersection of bold traditional blackwork, floral, ornamental, geometric pattern work, and Japanese and Buddhist influences. I’m drawn to work that feels timeless, handcrafted marks that stand the test of time ageing well with you with you.
I don’t take walk-ins. Everything is by appointment only because I believe in showing up prepared, present, and ready to collaborate, making the perfect recipe for an amazing tattoo. If that resonates, I’d love to hear from you.
The Experience
There’s no rush here.
I work by appointment only, so from the very first message, this is about your time.
-
Reach out via my booking form and choose your preferred method of contact wether thats email, WhatsApp, Instagram DM, or Facebook. I’ll get back to you with a warm, intentional response. No templates. Just a conversation about what you’re after, where you want it, and what it means to you.
-
If you’re local and want to, I offer free in-person consultations so we can talk face-to-face, look at references, and feel out the energy. If you’d rather sort everything remotely, we’ll go back and forth over message or email until the design feels right. This is co-creation. I’ll guide you, but it’s your art and your body. We’ll take the time to get it right.
-
Once we’ve settled on a date, I take a non-refundable deposit to hold your slot. Then it’s locked in. Yours.

You’ll come into a private, plant-filled room with natural light pouring in. There’s art on the walls, comfy seating, and a Japanese tea set if you want something warm in your hands before we begin. You can connect to the sound system and play whatever music grounds you. The space is clean, calm, and quiet by design.
I work slowly and intentionally. We’ll check placement together, adjust until it feels right, and then settle in. You’re welcome to talk, ask questions, or drift into your own headspace. There’s no performance needed here. Just presence.

My rate is £60 per hour. No hidden costs, no surprises. We’ll discuss time estimates during our consultation so you have a clear sense of things before the deposit.
That’s it. Simple, transparent, and built around the idea that getting tattooed can be a beautiful experience, not just a transaction.
If that sounds like what you need, get in touch.
