CHRIS HAWKES

CHRIS HAWKES

Chris has always been a keen artist, avidly drawing from a young age, with a love of comic book artwork. In his teens he designed advertising flyers for Rock and Roll clubs, also designing several album sleeves and labels amongst other projects. Chris has been tattooing since 2003, setting up Buzz Tattoo in 2006 working from a small private studio in Lancing. With the growing popularity of Buzz Tattoo, larger premises were required. In 2009 he relocated to East Worthing, but wishing to expand again & solve parking problems Chris has moved to Brighton Road on the Lancing / Shoreham border.

Wurzel

Wurzel

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away… Wurz left the building industry to seek a life that enabled him to read comics and sit around drawing weirdness all day long. Happily he fell into tattooing and spent the next 25 years colouring in the good denizens of Hove and Brighton, plus the surrounding areas, along with tattooing at a few international shows where he won a couple of awards for his black and grey comic book style stuff. Still firmly in love with the art of tattooing, you can find him working happily at Buzz, where he will be only to pleased to make your tattoo ideas a reality.

What they say about Buzz, best tattoo services in Lancing & beyond!

approachable, reassuring and professional

One word sums up the whole experience… FANTASTIC! This was my first tattoo (probably not my last now), so was very apprehensive. Chris was great; approachable, reassuring and professional. He’s also very
talented! He made me feel very at ease and was the nicest guy I could choose to hurt me for 3 and a half hour! The end result was amazing and I have had so many compliments about my beautiful fairy tat. Thank you.

Chris designed a really gorgeous scrolled double butterfly for my wrist, really beautiful, 10 out of 10, cheers Chris, I love it…he is very talented.

Simone

the work is outstanding

I first met Chris at his private studio I was nervous due to a bad experience. Chris made a fantastic job out of a cover up. I have since been to his new shop where it is clean friendly and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Chris makes you feel at ease and the work is outstanding.

Louise

Highly recommended

Highly recommended. Chris is a great, down to earth and funny person, who is easy to get on with. He makes you feel welcome whether you’re having your first tattoo done like me or whether you have had a few done from Chris. It’s easy to feel relaxed and he puts your mind at ease.

Kirsty

I would not go anywhere else

Great,friendly and very clean. I had my first tattoo done with Chris about 6 and a half years ago and since i have had another 5 done by Chris. I would not go anywhere else, I have taken my mother in law to his shop twice and she is now looking forward to going back for another one. I have recommended him to a lot of my family and friends.
