We are Horseshoes and Handgrenades
Horseshoes and Hand Grenades Tattoo is Western Massachusetts' eminent tattoo studio, located in Chicopee Massachusetts.
Our artists, Andy Barrett, Eva Huber, jeff and alex rojas are extremely passionate about their artwork. They put the quality of their tattooing long before their egos, and would prefer to make a great tattoo rather than nickel and dime their clients.
We take health pretty seriously around here,
so Hs "&" HG Tattoo practices the highest standards of cleanliness, using exclusively medical grade equipment, from the single use instruments used to apply the tattoo, to the barriers used on every surface during the tattooing process, to the scale in the back room to keep our pants fitting right.
Horseshoes and Hand Grenades Tattoo's friendly staff is here to answer any questions or concerns you may have during the tattooing process, from choosing the right artist, the design that will fit best on your body, to any safety and aftercare concerns you may have.

Alexander Rojas started tattooing in early 2009 and has been a proud member of the HS&HG crew for two years now. He is a junior at Massachusetts College of Art and Design, where he studies both painting and art history. Rojas is heavily influenced by the American traditional style of tattooing but is also strongly inspired by Medieval Christian artwork. He enjoys using complex line work and decorative compositions to create unique and bold tattoos. When Alex is not tattooing, he practices fine arts in other mediums such as oils, watercolors, aerosol and sculpture.
