Apparently this guy is very good. He did my one and only tattoo and it looks fine. But it was not what I asked for, I gave him a clear picture of exactly what I wanted but he decided that his way was best and without communicating with me started the tattoo which was not what I asked for. Looking back this was somewhere between arrogance and abuse, I was young and in that situation now there would have been a very different outcome. I'm sure generally he is ok but I would never recommend him to anyone who does not have strong boundaries. And I would never trust this person. Read Less

I had my first tattoo done by Ian on my 18th birthday, he was very nice and made me feel welcome. I am still so so happy with my tattoo.

Got my tattoo on Monday, of a tiger on my lower right arm. I have to say, I really wanted this tattoo, I went to other places in Reading to have a look and they charged ridiculous prices, some of which didn't even have work to show me and some even said having the tiger on the lower arm wouldnt be possible. Ian made it possible and I came out with no regrets just happiness, bloody fantastic artwork, looked exactly how i wanted it to + more! He doesn't mess about! Got my tatt...oo done in 2 hours and it's healing brilliantly. I consider this guy the best tattoo artist in Southern England and possibly in the UK from what ive heard and what ive seen him do. Hats off. Will be coming back soon! - Olly Ver más Read Less
