Meet Strawberry
Strawberry is one of Toronto's go-to glow-in-the-dark and UV tattoo artists, working out of Yes Electric on Queen West. Her specialty is blacklight-reactive ink — pieces that read one way in daylight and light up under UV — alongside custom glowing designs and a constant stream of fun, original flash. “Long legs, short ink.” 🍓
From a subtle glowing accent to a full UV-reactive design, Strawberry plans each piece for how it'll look both in the light and in the dark. Books open seasonally — follow along and grab a spot when they drop.

Design for two looks
The piece is planned for daylight and blacklight, so it reads beautifully whether the UV is on or off.
Session

Aftercare
Aftercare so the glow and the linework heal crisp and last.

Yes Electric is one of downtown Toronto's highest-rated studios. Real words from clients about the shop Strawberry works out of.
“My husband and I went to Yes Electric on a whim — we were only in Toronto for the day. So glad we did: the artists were absolutely amazing and accommodating with the designs we brought in, especially as walk-ins. Both our tattoos are exactly what we wanted!”
“I love this spot! Spacious and bright, high energy and artistic — full of tattoo enthusiasts. The manager is super friendly, always offering water or assistance.”
“Yes Electric is legit an art gallery. Everyone is super chilled out and welcoming. I went for my first tattoo and they did such a wonderful job — already planning my next one.”
Strawberry FAQ
What tattoo styles can I book with Strawberry?
Strawberry focuses on UV glow tattoos, colour, cute designs, anime-inspired pieces, fine line, flash, kawaii, glitter effects and small custom tattoos. Bring references for colour palette, placement and how playful or subtle you want the piece to feel.
Can I walk in for a tattoo with Strawberry?
Walk-ins are welcome at Yes Electric when scheduling allows, especially for flash and smaller custom tattoos. UV, colour-heavy or detailed anime-inspired ideas are better booked ahead so the design and colours can be planned.
Where does Strawberry tattoo in Toronto?
Strawberry works from Yes Electric Tattoo at 499 Queen St W in downtown Toronto. The Queen West studio is minutes from Trinity Bellwoods, Kensington Market, King West and the Entertainment District.
What should I know before getting a UV glow tattoo?
UV glow details should be planned like a design accent, not a shortcut around strong tattoo fundamentals. Talk through placement, colour and aftercare before the session, and follow the studio’s healing instructions so the tattoo settles cleanly.
