    was in london on holiday and decided to finally bite the bullet and got my first tattoo.. it was a…read moreconcept i was thinking about for two years. ange was my tattoo artist and couldn't ask for anyone better. she is so personable, INCREDIBLY talented AND knowledgable - it was like i was speaking with an old friend. i never felt rushed during the process and the attention to detail in my tattoo was amazing (diet cokes IN the pumpkin basket? amazing). i will definitely be going back here for my future tattoos :')

    Very long story in a short story: after 1.5 hours waiting for Michele (he was extremely late)…read morefinally he showed up COMPLETELY UNPREPARED. He hadn't even had the decency to check the email, so HE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TATTOO I WANTED. Since it was already very late, he lied, saying that it was not possible to apply the print of my background's tattoo on my skin and that therefore HE WOULD HAVE DONE IT HANDMADE. I reminded him that the amount of red was excessive and that the main tattoo was the Japanese writing. After 3 hours and £ 280.00 ( I was meant to pay £ 250,00, but they asked for more money even if I waited for 2hours because he was late and he had to try to prepare my tattoo in 30 mins) I found on my leg something that was not even comparable to my idea. I contacted George, the store owner, and he told me that it's normal that my tattoo was different because they are artists and they want to do something unique (OF COURSE I HAVE EMAILS TO PROVE EVERYTHING, EVERY SINGLE WORD). When I told him it was my 4th tattoo he changed his mind and decided to meet me to find a solution. After our meeting he promised me to talk with the others tattoo artists to try to fix my tattoo. After 13 days I decided to send him an email (he din't contact me at all) and George replied: "Hi Mike I just had the chance to talk with my guys"- what a coincidence!!! And guess what: NO ONE was good too much to sort the problem out. So Geroge's offer was to GIVE A CHANCE TO Michele (the one who made my tattoo). Guys would you ever let someone who did something wrong, put his hands once again on your skin? And then...a CHANCE??? GEORGE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT MY SKIN. THIS IS NOT A JOKE!!! I WANT PROFESSIONALISM, NOT CHANCES!!! During our meeting I said to George I wouldn't let Michele touch my skin once again and he promised me that for sure one of the other guys would be happy to help me. For two months George promised many things and at the end...nothing!!! Suck a shame cause I got my 1st tattoo in his store (AMAZING JOB MADE BY LUKE) To sum it up: Delay of 2 hours Michele didn't have any clue about my tattoo Paid £ 280,00 instead of £ 250,00 George (store owner) promised me to sort the problem out....how? Asking me to GIVE ANOTHER CHANCE to Michele (THE ONE WHO MESSED UP WITH MY TATTOO) to see if he could make it up. THANK YOU VERY MUCH CLOAK AND DAGGER FOR THE AMAZING NIGHTMARE. MONEY ARE NOT EVERYTHING!!! Persons before money!!! Good luck guys!!I hope none of you will go trough my bad experience Best Mike

    I've been on the fence about a tattoo for years- I finally decided months ago what I wanted but…read morehadn't found I place I felt comfortable with in my hometown of Nashville, TN. On my way into London I decided I was going to go for it and find somewhere to get my first tattoo! As soon as I walked in I knew that I was in a great, professional, and friendly parlor. I walked in and was able to get a consultation and tattoo all in about an hour! Stuart did my tattoo. I showed him a picture of a rough sketch I made and he came back with a design even more perfect than I could have imagined! He was very kind, friendly, and did an AMAZING job with the fine details on my tattoo! If you are in the London area and need a tattoo- GO HERE! You won't regret it!

    For years and years I wanted to get a tattoo, but being unique, just like everybody else; I wanted…read moresomething that was for me. Not just another warrior tattoo, or something out of a catalogue that hundreds before have had. Some time ago I narrowed what I wanted down to either a Griffin or a Dragon, both mythical creatures carrying a lot of symbolism for me. Then I sort of did nothing, I wanted a bespoke design, by a good tattooist; and had no idea where to start. So there I am wondering along Exmouth Market and saw this rather interesting shop front. Turns out to be a Tattoo Parlour. Wonder in and chat with Dave, the retro looking front of house man, about what I am looking for. He invites me to look at some pictures of the work the different artists do to try and choose a style of artist I like. This is tough, they all look really good. Eventually I settle with a Japanese artist called Mie Sato, not because she has loads of Dragons or Griffins in her portfolio, in fact I do not remember seeing any. But, because I like her work. Have a chat with Mie about the design and make an appointment to come back in about a month to review. Book a series of 3 hour sessions around three months from the date I am in the shop!! That is how busy they are. Anyway Mie comes up with a wonderful design, her work is brilliant, and now I have an excellent tattoo I love to bits. A nice relaxed place, that create brilliant bespoke art.
