  • Natan Tattoo Artist / Shop OwnerNatan Alexander, Shop Owner & Tattoo Artist
    HI! I’m N^T^N, a hard working tattoo artist with 16 years experience. I have three shops in Boston, Saugus, and Salem Mass. They are called Darkwave Tattoo, Lightwave Tattoo, and Witch City Ink. At my shops I employ only the finest artists and professionals in the business. I also produce the Boston Tattoo Convention now in its 9th year. Tattooing is my passion, not just my profession. As a tattoo artist, I do strictly custom work that challenges me and reflects my interests and those of my clients. I love all types of tattooing and my work has an easily recognizable style that features bold lines and strong color. I travel abroad several times a year in Europe and Japan to broaden my knowledge and understanding of tattooing. My goal is to bring this knowledge and commitment to excellence into every tattoo that is done in each of my shops.

    Micah is the resident apprentice of the shop. Also here to help with front counter and managing the shop, he’s the go-to-guy for booking out your time, scheduling consults, whatever other organizational tasks may need to be delegated. With a penchant for punk rock and puppy dogs, oil paint and sandwiches, black coffee and skulls, you may recognize Micah from the staff down at Darkwave Tattoos in Roxbury, although he is now part of the Witch City crew full-time.
