Mehmet Ali Yağmur
Mehmet Ali Yağmur is the founder and lead artist of MAY Tattoo & Piercing. Since 2016 he has practiced tattoo art in Gaziantep with a foundation of hygiene and originality.
He specializes in black & grey realism and blackwork, alongside fine line, minimal, geometric and custom design work. Every project begins by listening to the client's story, and a personal composition is prepared before it ever touches skin.
His top priority in every piece is health, hygiene, and a result the client is fully happy with.
In the Studio
Real moments from real sessions at our studio.
How a Session Works
Every project follows the same four steps. First a free consultation, in person or over WhatsApp, where we talk through the idea, the placement and what the skin in that area allows. Then the drawing: a composition made for you rather than a design pulled from a catalogue.
On the day itself, the stencil goes on first and the session starts only once you are happy with its position and size. Needles and cartridges are sterile, single-use and opened in front of you. Afterwards we go through aftercare together - the first two weeks decide how the piece will look for the rest of its life.
Styles Mehmet Ali Works In
Black & grey realism and blackwork are the core of his work, alongside fine line, minimal, geometric and fully custom compositions. Larger pieces are planned across several sessions with healing time in between, and that plan is agreed with you before the first line is drawn.
You can see finished work in the gallery, read about the studio on the tattoo studio page, or check the frequently asked questions before you write to us. How the studio started in 2016 is told on our about page.
