Kustom Kulture was established in the late 1990s in Glastonbury by the pervious owner.  Shortly after moving to Worle, a suburb of Weston-super-Mare, in 2000, I took ownership of the business.

My name is Wendy Thomas and I came to tattooing about 7 years ago after moving to Weston from Oxfordshire.  I was born in South Wales, and did most of my school years in Plymouth, Devon.  I moved to Reading in 1986 (shows my age!!) to study Food Technology at University.  A lot people think it's a weird jump to tattooing, but a degree that focuses on microbiology and engineering comes in very useful.  I've always loved art and I still paint and draw as a hobby, despite doing it every day at "work".

After my degree I spent 12 years in the food industry, mostly as a hygiene inspector so I am a bit of an expert in sterile practices and cross-contamination control.  Told you that degree would come in useful!  From 2001 I also worked here at Kustom Kulture on Saturdays.  When the previous owner decided to move on, I took a deep breath, bought the business and turned my back on the rat-race for good!

I've never looked back - the business has gone from strength to strength I'm happy to say!  My customers include people from all walks of life, in all ages, colours, shapes and sizes!  A lot of my work tends to be cover-ups - sometimes small names (always a mistake!) but mostly larger "first-timer" mistakes like bulldogs, Tazs', devils, etc.

I also do quite a few portraits and I'd like to encourage more as I really enjoy doing them.  Because of this you'll find my portrait prices are extremely keen!

I also do a lot of custom work, where the customer brings me a design or an idea and we work together to develop it into a unique tattoo.  This is a winner for everyone as it's more interesting for me and the customer is more likely to be happy with a tattoo into which they've had an input.

Outside of work I enjoy going to gigs, pubs and travelling round in my campervan! I'm a spicy food addict (though I have Clorets on stand-by next to me tattoo chair!). I'm trying to learn to surf, so far unsuccessfully as I need to lay off the spicy food and the pubs first!  I draw and paint at home in acrylics and watercolours.  I'm an animal lover with a dog, two parrots and lots of fish!   Anything else you'll have to ask me when you come in!

Contact Information

We prefer you to visit the shop to discuss your needs because tattoos are a visual medium and its difficult - if not impossible - to do by phone or e-mail.  Phone for a time for a free consultation. However if you have general queries which are not answered in our advice section, by all means e-mail us or call us.
