Hi! My name is Amber Rosie, aka Tats by Rosie (but you can just call me Amber).
I have been tattooing since March 2022, and enjoying every moment. My specialties are mostly black fine-line designs and florals, but I also do a lot of colour and dabble in other styles now and again. My favourite themes to tattoo are anything whimsical, magical, or pop-culture.
I am the co-owner of Hair & Ink alongside my partner, Kate Hutchings who is a licensed hairstylist. Together we built a cozy workspace that provides us each with our own private room for our clients to enjoy a more quiet environment than your typical tattoo parlour or hair salon.
I also like to take my business on the road and frequently tattoo at expos across Ontario or attend small local events.
A litte bit of my personal background: I grew up in Courtice, ON, and moved to Lindsay in 2018 with my spouse. I previously worked at Lakeridge Ajax Hospital as a clerk for 6 years before completing nursing school and working as an RPN at PRHC. I started tattooing at the end of COVID when health care became too overwhelming and I needed a fresh start.
Fun fact about me… I’ve been in the local news twice! Which isn’t a lot, but still cool that it happened more than once. I was in the Peterborough Examiner on Nov 10, 2022, and again in Kawartha Lakes Weekly in the Oct 9, 2025 issue.
