The reviews speak
for themselves
"Can't recommend this place enough and made to feel welcome every time. They're professional, take every precaution and most importantly have some of the best artists in the country."
Steff Morgan"Rick is a real craftsman. I couldn't be happier with his work and customer service. A great friendly atmosphere in the shop. I will be back soon."
Simon Rosas"Zoe listened to what we wanted, looked at our ideas and came up with her own designs which were perfect. The atmosphere was upbeat and the whole experience was relaxing. We'll be back!"
Amanda Morcombe"Simon is honestly one of the greatest tattoo artists I have ever seen. He can help you come up with a design from just a small idea. Everybody needs to book in with this shop."
Ryan BridgetPodium Finishes at the London Tattoo Convention
Two of our resident artists brought home trophies from this year's London Tattoo Convention, one of the most competitive stages in the industry.




Breaking Bad Habits in Tattoo Art
Rick was invited to host a seminar at the London Tattoo Convention, sharing two decades of experience with artists from across the industry. Breaking Bad Habits in Tattoo Art looked at the technique and thinking habits that quietly hold artists back, and how to unlearn them.
It is the same knowledge behind The Tattoo Apprentice book, brought to the convention floor for a room full of working artists.
"We don't just tattoo, we create art designed for your body."
