About Khali
My name is Khali Davis
I
I am a professional black and grey tattoo artist in Gahanna, Ohio and I am the sole owner of Goth Girl Tattoos LLC!
I’ve been an artist since I could hold a Crayola crayon (start ‘em young.) I took every art class in school that I could and even attended The Ohio State University for a year where I studied the greats like Caravaggio and Gentileschi.
I didn’t know what I wanted to do for a living until I was 17 years old watching an episode of Miami Ink with my mom in the living room. I had a lightbulb moment and it clicked. I looked at her and said “I could become a tattoo artist” and she said…
Absolutely not.
My family was not a big fan of tattoos at the time but I’ve loved art my whole life and what better way to make a living than doing what you truly love? I’ve always been the black sheep and I’ve always been stubborn, so I pursued it anyway knowing my family would always have my back no matter what. Fast forward to now, as a business owner, I’ve tattooed my mom, multiple cousins, and even my grandfather when he was 72! Following your dreams can sometimes be scary and uncertain but, when you have a family like mine, you’ll always be taken care of.
I may seem outgoing and bubbly at your appointment but I’m really an introvert at heart who loves her sweatpants and the couch! I have a handsome black cat named Bertram Thackery Binx and his favorite things are cuddles and forehead kisses. When I’m not at home or working, I’m either hanging out with my mom and brother bowling, watching movies, or just chillin, or I’m at a concert or music festival! I love deathcore, metalcore, hip hop, rap, rock, and pop and my favorite band is GHOST who I’ve seen I think eight times? And their movie twice! I even have a Papa Emeritus II tattoo and it’s one of my favorites on me! My favorite movie genre is horror. My favorite horror movie franchise is Terrifier (Saw is a CLOSE second). When you walk into my loft, it’s always spooky season and I can’t wait for you to check it out for yourself!
