Full disclosure: I am not a customer. With that being said,… This establishment is made with love, passion, blood, sweat, and determination that came from its owner, Jori Lakars, aka Hott Mama, aka The Mama who always gave herself goals and standards that benefited the world to the fullest and implemented the highest standards possible. A quick glance at her path shows that she has been successful in the industry well known in a way that the number of 5 reviews or social media followers will not reflect. I met her personally only once before she moved to England about 17 years ago. She was working in a popular tattoo shop in Wicker Park that I won’t name. ( if you know, you know) the had long ravenous hair and substantially fewer tattoos. Although I had met many women who were in the industry, few were celebrated by their peers. The shop posted a large banner in the front window that said ‘we have a female tattoo artist.’ I had never seen that before even in a liberal city like Chicago. Soon after that, every shop in the area had at least one ‘female.’ She went on to work at many of the best rated shops and worked on the best artists in the business as clients. When she moved, we were sad yet proud to see that she was following her passion overseas. She would wonder up one of the top artists anywhere she worked. She finally got her own place and put every ounce of work into it. Sadly, she had just acquired two young brilliant talents just recently. A couple of weeks ago, she passed away in a car accident without any warning. I t is a shock that she is gone and her energy is eternally resting. I have known her half of my life and I have never known anyone like her. A true inspiration and individual person who is driven to create. If you are lucky enough to have had a moment with her, you know what I mean. Love to her local community from Chicago. We were all lucky enough to be together for as long as we could,…… Cheers to Jori.

Could not have been more welcoming. It has taken me 40 years to finally get a tattoo and my kids booked me in as a surprise. Friendly and professional service. I felt very at ease. Everything was explained and I am extremely happy with the end result. I would definitely recommend Kewpie Tattoo Studio. A very comfortable and pleasant experience. Thanks Rylan.

Got tattooed here yesterday by the apprentice Teddy, an amazing experience, and a wonderful tattoo, the staff are friendly and very professional. The studio was clean and tidy but had a very cosy feeling, I can definitely recommend going there for some ink. Teddy did an amazing job and I couldn't be happier with my new tattoo

I looked at their page on Facebook by chance and saw this design up for grabs. I had to have it so I booked in and I'm so glad I did. Rylan was great, easy to talk to and everything went smoothly. The tattoo is even better than I expected and I don't have a bad word to say about the experience. Definitely going to return as soon as I've saved a bit!!

I visited Jori to make an initial enquiry and was advised to email with details. I had a pretty vague idea which she developed and came up with a stunning full colour artwork within a couple of days. A week later I was booked in and the job done. Her time guesstimate was spot on. Very relaxed, very professional and to my amazement the end result was even more detailed than the original artwork. She exceeded all expectations, I cant recommend her highly enough.
