Steve Sims
Steve is one of our owners and an extremely experienced tattooer, clocking in at 18+ years. He has been drawing his entire life, even creating flash as a teenager.
Spending 7 days a week at the tattoo shop, he finished his apprenticeship in just 9 months and has worked at several well know shops throughout Chicago, Elgin, and Carpentersville before opening Lost Lagoon Tattoo.
Steve is extremely versatile and can tattoo almost anything, free-handing a lot of his work. His main focuses are Traditional, Neotraditional, and Geometric/Mandala styles. In his spare time he hangs with his two sons, travels, or works in the garage!
