From Jason Metka- Owner, Tattooist
“I began Tattooing in 2005, out of a small shop, in Cincinnati, OH. Over the years, I have been very fortunate to travel the world and work with world class tattooists. These collective experiences have not only helped to diversify my skill set, but also instilled in me a great appreciation for the craft. Although large scale/full body tattooing is what I am most drawn to, I am proficient in all styles, large or small. Versatility has always been an important foundation of my career. I strive to give the client the best possible result, whether it be Japanese, fine line, traditional, or black and grey.”
Black Swan Tattoo Care
Heal your tattoos without harsh chemicals
Clean and natural aftercare, made locally
We’re proud to introduce Black Swan Tattoo Aftercare, a new line created by our owner/ artist, Jason Metka, and developed and made locally here in Austin, Texas. After years of seeing clients struggle with products that were too harsh, heavy, or full of unnecessary additives, Jason set out to create a simple, high-quality alternative designed specifically for healing tattooed skin. Each formula is made in small batches using clean, biodegradable ingredients at an ATX licensed manufacturing facility —free from petroleum, parabens, and synthetic fillers—to support the healing process and protect your tattoo investment. This line reflects the same care, craftsmanship, and attention to detail that define every tattoo we create in the studio.
