hey, i've only got one so i'm not an expert by any means. but i got mine in a place on exmouth market called the family business, after having a good look around. i'd definitely go back (and yep, already thinking about my next one...).

Does this not depend on what sort of tattoo you want?

^ hmmm, not really. Most quality tattoo shops like into you and the family business cater for all styles. Certainly if you want some crazy geometric stuff that only a few people can do well (tomas tomas, xed lehead etc) then sure but for the most part any decent tattoo shop (it's amazing how few decent tattoo shops there really are) can sort you out. You won't go far wrong visiting into you or the family business. Frith street is ok too but super commercial, it's the type of place you'll find your arsenal and chelsea players going to.
- might be personal but wasn't convinced when i walked into frith street for a look... vibe wasnt right... no way im getting that done somewhere im not comfortableisakosmo

- I mean, in terms of artistry and finish.detritus
- I'd be exaggerating if I said I liked 10% of the tattoos I seeset

Into You are well moody. Had something done there and didn't enjoy it. Frith street are cool – I have a few pieces there, but the waiting list is insane for the girl who I had stuff done by (Valerie).
Not been to the Family Business before but heard good things.

The missus and I got matching tattoos here.
Nothing extremely fancy, but they are fine.
The chap was rather cocky at first, but they seemed to be ok, and at least I didn't ask for a skull and ended up with a giraffe.
Also, not overly pricey, for being London
