Hayley Stokes

Hey, I'm Hayley! I started tattooing in early 2023, after years of painting and drawing as a studio artist locally. I officially joined Altered Ego Studios in October 2024, and it's the kind of space that truly feels like home. 

​

My work leans into blackwork, stippling, and illustrative realism. I love nature, fantasy and witchy themes. I mainly focus on black and grey tattoos, but I'm always open to exploring color or cover-up projects - especially if the concept fits a moodier palette. I love working on big, statement pieces, but the small meaningful tattoos always have a place in my heart. 

​

When I'm not tattooing, you'll probably find me curled up with a good book, lost in a video game, or wandering somewhere outdoors. I'm a bit of a magpie - always thrifting, collecting antiques & trinkets, crystals, and oddities.

If you're into tattoos that are bold and a bit magical, - I'd love to make it happen! Fill out a consult form so we can create together.
