Self expression tattoos in London

“So pleased with my tattoo. The service from Mary and the team was fantastic. She took her time to make sure I was 100% happy with the piece that she created for me, and has an extremely gentle hand. This line work and flower are beautiful! Thanks Mary!”

“Thanks Izzy for eyebrow piercing, almost painless. Recomended. Also just had tattoo done by Conan, nice job. The nicest thing is all the people working here are so friendly with great atmosphere.”

“Got my forearm piece done by Sin and had an older tattoo fixed — couldn’t be happier with how it all turned out. Sin is an incredible artist and really hands-on throughout the whole process. He took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, gave solid advice, and delivered clean, detailed work. The vibe was chill, professional, and you can tell he genuinely cares about both the art and the client. Highly recommend if you’re looking for quality work and someone who knows what they’re doing.”

“Took my daughter here today and I can’t thank them enough she had the best experience, the man and lady that did her ear piercing was so lovely and put my daughter at complete ease and her ear piercings are perfect Would highly recommended them to anyone My daughter and me couldn’t be happier”

“Absolutely love Brendan and his work! Absolutely lovely guy and his artwork is brilliant couldn’t recommend enough!!”

“Kami is an absolutely amazing artist! I only had a little idea of ​​what I wanted and she came up with exactly what belongs to me. I like her work because every piece is original. It was my first tattoo with her and certainly not my last. I highly recommend it.”

“I have had Aimee-Lou tattoo me for hours! She is currently working on my sleeve & is one of my favourite tattooists around. She has beautifully designed every tattoo I have asked for to a higher standard & with more creative ideas then I could ever imagine. My favourite thing about Aimee Lou is... She designs everything for me & will never copy any other work. You can leave with the comfort of knowing that she will not give your designs to anyone else so you can stay unique! (This is from experience of someone requesting a tattoo of mine. She changed the design up & gave them something new & I get to keep my unique tattoo!) She is also a dream to be with & chat to whilst tattooing! She’s also got a very gentle touch & I don’t think I could have got through my elbow tattoo with anyone else! I have recommended her multiple times & will continue to see her for years to come! FULLY RECOMMEND VERY PROFESSIONAL CREATIVE TALENTED ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Go see Aimee Lou!”

“I've been to InkFact three times now to get about 15 tattoos, building up my patchwork sleeve on my arms! I love all of them! It's such a welcoming studio and they are so accommodating to what I want and getting the size & location perfect! Giuseppe and Carlotta are super. It's a really positive and nice atmosphere - will def be going back for more in 2023! One of the best tattoo studios in London for sure :)”

“Very friendly,clean,great tattooists,highly recommend,Lotti has fone a few of mine,exactly as i wanted them”

“I had the pleasure of being tattooed by Bex, it was such a good experience! I got 3 tattoos in one session, but I felt very relaxed the whole time. She was very professional in her work, and I love every piece, will definitely be getting more from her!”

“Excellent work on my full sleeve, couldn't be happier with the result - so many people who "aren't fans of tattoos" have changed their mind when seeing Richard's work. Richard is a superb artist and having spent many, many hours in the studio, I can definitely say that they look after you superbly and everyone is great to talk to about anything!”

“Max has done 3 pieces of work on me and I can safely say he has some of the neatest lines in the industry, I’m really over the moon with his craftsmanship. All 3 pieces of work have a very sentimental meaning to me. Whilst he was working on my sons name, we got chatting and I found out this dude trains Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (so do I), so we had plenty of story’s tales and techniques to chat about. What a cool dude!!!”

“Had my 11 year old daughter’s ears pierced here and Holly was absolutely fantastic with her. Loved that she put her at ease with her kind and friendly manner and that she explained the whole process so nothing was at all scary. Took the time to check the ears were all lined up, and the actual piercing was done quickly and professionally, my daughter barely felt it. Great selection of earrings and we will be buying some more when we return in six weeks to get the ears checked. Thank you so much Holly for making this such a good experience!”

“My daughter had her ear lobes pierced today and the staff here made her feel so special. When we arrived Rose explained the process really well in a non-scary way, she was really friendly and so easy to chat to. Amy pierced my daughter’s ears and she was clam, patient and just lovely. We received lots of advice on cleaning the piercings and when we left my daughter was given a bravery certificate and stickers. I would definitely recommend and we will be coming back!”

“Went and got my first tattoo here by guest artist Don Braga. Was a little nervous, but everyone I met was friendly and welcoming, really made it a great experience! The studio itself is good as well, very clean and loads of great flash from different artists to look at while you wait.”

“I have been going to Tattoo 13 for more than twenty years and to tattooist Sharon in particular. None of my tattoos have faded over this time. The colours are still vibrant and the line work still sharp. I would highly recommend a visit if you are considering a tattoo. A first class service.”

“My second tattoo from this studio. Very happy with the detail to hygiene and extremely happy with my tattoo. Price very good as well. Will only use this studio for the next one I get.”

“Lepa is incredibly talented, so welcoming, and a lovely person. She did an incredible job with my tattoo, easily the best session i’ve had yet. I can’t thank you enough, this tattoo means so much to me and i couldn’t have asked for a more positive experience and more beautiful end result !!!”

“I visited the studio for my first tattoo and had a fantastic experience. The studio is aesthetically pleasing, clean, and welcoming. Claudia did an amazing job with my tattoo—it looks incredible! She took the time to ensure I was completely happy with the design and even did a 'test dot' beforehand so I knew what to expect. I highly recommend this studio and will definitely return for future tattoos! The photo attached is of my healed tattoo, one year after it was done.”

“Absolutely in love with my new tattoo from Holly at The London Social! From the moment I walked in, Holly made me feel completely comfortable. She took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, added her own artistic flair, and brought it to life even better than I imagined. The atmosphere at The London Social is so welcoming and relaxed – it felt more like hanging out with a super-talented friend than a typical tattoo appointment. Holly’s attention to detail is unreal, and her linework is so clean and precise. You can really tell she cares deeply about her work and her clients. I left feeling empowered, inspired, and already thinking about my next piece. Highly recommend Holly to anyone looking for meaningful, beautiful work in a chill, professional environment.”

“I had a bad helix piercing at Superdrug 2 months ago, and today I called and asked for help. I knew nothing of this business before pain and mistrust in where I had the original piercing done drove me to Dr. Google. The reviews for here are excellent and inspired confidence. I called, explained and was told to come along when I could, which I did as soon as I finished work. I was met with kindness and extreme gentleness.”

“THE best tattoo experience I've ever had, the studio is absolutely beautiful, and everyone there was super friendly! The studios had great vibes, if you like dogs this studio would feel like heaven for you. I got my tattoo from Jodie who was absolutely amazing. I love her tattoo style and she created a tattoo for me that was better than anything I could have ever envisioned. She is extremely talented and the best at what she does. I will definitely be going back to get another tattoo from her.”

“Had my tattoo done there today, very helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend Dharma tattoo to anybody. Mie was the artist who tattooed me and she was brilliant couldn’t be happier”

“My wife and I came in for matching tattoos today and we are over the moon. Our artist Jay was fantastic as were the rest of the team. It’s my first ever one and I’ll definitely be back again. Thanks everyone!”

“My son just got his first tattoo Terry is a top quality tattoo artist polite helpful and above all very talented the price was very reasonable I wouldn't go anywhere else”

“Had 3 piercings done with Garth today and cannot recommend enough. He talked me through everything, made sure I was happy before proceeding and really took his time. Didn't once feel rushed. Great experience. Previously had my tragus done elsewhere and had no end of problems with it... Turns out it was in completely the wrong place! Super happy and cannot wait to get the next few booked in!”

“me and my wife got our wedding bands tattooed here. Fantastic service and they look great!”
