Heart & Dagger Tattoo , @Conniewestgatetattoos

Heart & Dagger Tattoo- established in 2016, by its owner and head artist Connie Westgate . A custom shop with a main focus on producing beautiful , original pieces for each of her clients. Connie enjoys creating custom neo-traditional pieces; colourful, cute tattoos  as well as black and grey , black work pieces. She also does re-works and cover ups of unwanted tattoos. Tattooing since 2008, Connie brings her love of art  and people together in the exciting medium of tattoos. A life long artist , ( painting in acrylics, sculpting, ) Connie enjoys getting to know her clientele as well seeing them return for more carefully crafted, unique pieces. 

Connie developed the shop with the mantra of creating a creative community of enthusiastic, dedicated, tattoo artists . Community is a big part of the ideology behind Heart & Dagger Tattoo. This has resulted in Connie developing a program of scar cover ups for women recovering from cancer . Fighting for your life is one thing, looking at the scar after the fact can be a painful reminder for some women. The same goes for surgical scars. If you , or anyone you know is looking to rid themselves of their cancer/surgical scar please contact Connie directly via this email and she will schedule a consult at your convenience.

Heart & Dagger Tattoo also does a yearly fundraiser for animal rescues, this year we partnered up with SCARS Second Chance Animal Rescue . Keep an eye out on our social media IG @heartdaggertattoo for designs and dates! Usually held the first weekend of October ( we may be adding more due to need in 2024!), it’s a great event and a fun way to give back for the Heart & Dagger Team .

Connie is always taking on new projects and clients and her books are open for 2023/2024.
