VELVET UNDERGROUND TATTOO 103 Whitecross Street, London EC1Y 8JD

"I had an incredible experience getting my first tattoo at Velvet Underground. From the customer interactions to the artist herself, everything was great. My artist was Claudia who was attentive and took her time explaining everything to me in detail to make sure I was as comfortable as possible. We worked on the design and placement before she started the tattoo. She was meticulous and did an amazing job. I couldn’t be happier and absolutely love my tattoo. I will definitely come again for my next one!"

"I had an amazing experience at Velvet Underground. They are an all-female team of tattoo artists who work on custom designs in a range of styles. I was looking for an artist who was adept at fine line/black work/nature designs. I went with a concept in mind and Theresa Vendetta captured exactly what I was hoping for in the design. I went for a consultation beforehand and agreed on the best positioning, then spent a full-day in the studio. I was absolutely thrilled with the result. I went back for a complimentary touch-up in January, once it had fully healed, and now I'm really happy with the outcome. I've had quite a lot of tattoos already, so I'm pretty familiar with the aftercare regime. However, the team provide very detailed guidance on how to look after your tattoo during the healing process. Theresa is an incredibly skilled artist with great attention to detail. I will definitely be going back for more tattoos. She's also incredibly friendly and really good fun, as are the whole team. I really enjoyed my day in the studio. I'd highly recommend exploring the artists at Velvet Underground if you have an idea for a tattoo in mind. Highly recommended!"

"I called them on the day to check for a walk in tattoo. They told me to come as they had an empty slot. The studio is beautiful and cosy. Everyone was super nice and helpful. My Artist was Theresa_Vendetta, she was lovely and super professional. She made a lot of stencils for me to choose from. I couldn’t be happier with my tattoo and with the experience. Will definitely return for more! Dani."

"Incredible service before you are anywhere near the shop. Professional and friendly reception to help you book and email confirmations to remind you. A fully female business through owner to all artists, this should be of no consequence to respectful men but naturally I would imagine that adds a huge layer of comfort for female-identifying clients and I think this is very much a positive. A warm welcome from when you walk through the door, an easy to fill in tattoo form through your own device and when you are in the studio it is spacious and very nicely decorated. To those new to tattoos and have no idea how things are priced you need to factor in a few things, Location: London Reputation and Skill of artists : Incredible, & the Variable is time taken. There will be plenty more factors but I assure you for the Level of service you get here, the price is Perfectly reasonable. Considering your experience is not just the ink going in, but your artist, the welcome and the atmosphere, you are investing in yourself well by using this place. Varvara's Talent and patience seems to be unending and a special mention for her long hours of superb effort to my ongoing project. I've been in over few days and not seen one disappointed face on any other clients coming and going. I don't need to hope your experience here will be as good as mine, because I know it will be!"

"Staff are amazing. Friendly and thoughtful. I was tattooed by Emily whose work is fantastic. I had a very loosed idea of what I wanted and and she was able to design something beautiful. It's so delicate and perfect. Worth every penny and I cannot recommend this studio enough"
