"Hi all.
Any recommendations for a local tattooist?
Looking to get a Japanese themed sleeve.
Thanks in advance "
Depends how far you want to go; there's Gavin rose in Cardiff amazing work, frontier tattoo in Cardiff have done some good japanese stuff.
But if you're willing to travel (London is a super easy trip Megabus or train) then you've got my personal favourite Stewart Robson at modern classic where I had my thighs done or 9 tails tattoo in London or Ian flower just outside - all great artists.
Oh and if money isn't an object Alex Reinke the ex apprentice of horyoshi III works in london too but super $$.
I got my sleeves done here in France but that's probably pushing it for traveling  |

Anybody got any experience with physical graffiti in cardiff? Have heard good things about it, but all our stuff has been done abroad so not sure what's best over here. Money not an issue as it's my skin! |

"Traditional sailor type tattoo next. Was going to go in and have a chat with them but obviously didn't want to go somewhere completely unknown. Appreciate the feedback"
In that case frontier might be a bit better for trad stuff. |

Website looks good, may try that as a first stop then.
Thanks "
I had one of my tattoos done here by Morgan, lovely guy, I'm waiting for operation scars to heal now and then we are looking to get them covered |

"Thanks for the feedback guys. I'll probably stick to one in the Rhondda.  "
I'd definitely recommend traveling to the best artist you can, 5-6 hours traveling is nothing when tattoos tend to last a while |
