Marie is an absolutely brilliant artist. From the beginning, she was responsive, attentive and reassuring. When I pitched my (very basic!) idea, not only did she understand the feeling and what I wanted it to represent, but she expanded it and incorporated other elements and gave it her surrealist tweak. She is also the warmest in person and made me feel at ease on the day (this was my first tattoo so I was rather nervous!). She gave me time to think and did not start until I was happy with how the stencil looked. Seeing her work is such a joy too, you can tell she really cares about what she is doing - truly an artist at work! The healing process has been super easy despite tattoo having a lot of shading, which is testament to her skills and equipment. Thank you Marie for your wonderful piece of art!

One of the most enjoyable tattoo sessions I've ever had, Lauren is very easy to get along with and makes sure you're comfortable with what's happening. I'd get tall my tattoos done by her if I could

Gabriele’s work is incredible. Second tattoo with him and I will be back for more.

I had 7 tattoos done by Jags this weekend and it was honestly such an amazing experience! She was so lovely and incredibly meticulous with all the details and special requests - and gave a lot of advice which was super helpful. Massive thank you again and see you soon for the next ones will definitely be back! Xx

So amazing yet again! Came back for my second tattoo after such a positive first experience and I absolutely love it. Such a lovely and comfortable experience all the way through.

Fantastic tattoo from Lauren. She takes time to help create and refine the design with you, the whole process is extremely relaxed and professional. The work itself is excellent, I’ve had many compliments on the piece and the detail/quality. 10/10 will get another piece from Lauren

I couldn’t be happier with my expierence with Lauren Manners. From the very first conversation, Lauren was professional, attentive, and genuinely invested in bringing my idea to life. The forearm piece of Poseidon and Zeus came out even better than I imagined. The detail, depth, and flow of the design are next level. You can tell Lauren doesn’t just tattoo, she understands art

Lauren is professional, and genuinely so reliable for such a delicate thing of a tattoo, the tattoo she completed for me was such an easy process, and made receieving my first tattoo very smooth, it has healed perfectly - i had recommended 2-3 other people to her who have shared the same impressive result!

Incredible artist, every time I get a piece done I can’t wait for the next one. The detail in her work is amazing. Hands down the best artist I’ve had tattoo me

Honestly what you designed for my cover up is my favourite tattoo, these are the only ones i’ve had where the ink hasn’t dropped or haven’t smudged. I am in love with them and they’re my favourites. Planning to come see you again when i come back to london
