Steampunk & Industrial

Rex Morrow Industrial Ink & Steampunk Soul

Where gears meet skin: industrial designs, mechanical marvels, and steampunk aesthetics that tell stories of innovation and imagination.

Rex Morrow

The Artist

I'm Rex, and I live where the industrial meets the fantastical. My work draws from Chicago's rich manufacturing history and the endless possibilities of steampunk imagination. I specialize in mechanical designs, intricate gearwork, and industrial aesthetics that blend the real with the surreal.

From detailed engine parts to fantastical airships, every piece is a celebration of human ingenuity and artistic vision.

Tattoo Aftercare

Follow these steps to ensure your new tattoo heals properly and looks its best for years to come.

1

Leave the Bandage On

Keep the initial bandage on for 2-4 hours after your session. Your artist will let you know the exact time based on your tattoo.

2

Wash Gently

After removing the bandage, wash the tattoo gently with lukewarm water and fragrance-free antibacterial soap. Pat dry with a clean paper towel.

3

Moisturize

Apply a thin layer of fragrance-free moisturizer or tattoo aftercare ointment 2-3 times daily. A little goes a long way.

4

Let It Peel

Your tattoo will start to peel and flake after a few days. This is normal. Never pick, scratch, or peel the flaking skin.

5

Protect from Sun

Keep your new tattoo out of direct sunlight for at least 2-3 weeks. Once healed, always apply SPF 30+ sunscreen to keep colors vibrant.

6

Avoid Soaking

No swimming pools, hot tubs, baths, or saunas for at least 2-3 weeks. Quick showers are fine.
