1 – Room 13 Tattoo
With three artists under its roof, it’s located in a cool independent retail and creative hub of Dalston: @thefactorydalston.

2 – Vaporwave Tattoo London
Formed by five artists, this studio will not only dazzle you with its designs but also with its decoration and interiors, creating a space with a mix of neon lights and plants. Besides the fact that the artists have a very varied and original style, they have the option of doing hand poke tattoos in case you were thinking of trying them out.
3 – The London Social Tattoo
With a studio located in central Soho, they also have a YouTube channel with several videos talking about tattoos in interviews. You could take a look at and expand your tattoo knowledge. Thinking of getting an improvised tattoo? Walk-ins are welcome, perfect if you’re on a short trip to London and fancy a tattoo in the city.
4 – Tattcity
We all know that tattoos can be quite expensive, although it all depends on the design, the location and the artist. Still, if you really fancy a tattoo but don’t have a big budget, Tattcity offers a range of small or simple tattoos for the price of £25. It’s a great option for something simple and quick, and small tattoos are on trend.
5 – Fifth Dimension Tattoo
Last but not least, Fifth Dimension Tattoo. With their 100% vegan conduct, you won’t find any product or item that comes from or has been tested on animals. This is a very good alternative, as many people are not aware that some traditional inks contain ingredients that come from animals, but with this vegan studio, you can be sure that there is no trace of these components in their material. The site is also popular for its geometrical art.
