COLTON BRANCH
For as long as he can remember, Colton needed to have tattoos. Growing up, he saw a spectrum of tattoos between the bikers his parents rode with to the old heads at the skate park.

Colton has been tattooing for 11 years and is the owner of Lucky Horseshoe Tattoo Co. in Manassas VA.
Colton can’t live without Druid Disposables waterproof drape sheets and any 32mm Lineage disposable tubes.

Through gratitude, James works every day to give back what he’s been given by the craft.
James relies on his Grid Destroyer power supply paired with his favorite liners from LNC (5RL, 7RL, 7TRL) to create a streamlined set up that he can trust.
