We are getting involved with Tattooers for Japan and Ink for Aid – Raising money for Japan!
Tattooers for Japan
Due to the terrible scenes we have all been witnessing in Japan and the fact that all tattooists owe a great debt to Japan for their history in tattooing. We are proud to announce we will be participating in the Tattooers for Japan fund raising event that is happening around the world in the next few weeks.
So on Sunday 3rd April, we will be opening our doors for a one off walk in day of tattooing with ALL proceeds being given to the Japanese Diaster Fund.
We will be open 11am – 5pm, it will be on a first come first served basis, there will be a selection of Japanese themed designs to choose from (these designs will be posted up in the next week or so). There will be a variety of designs and prices.
We will not be tattooing any torsos, upper inner arm or lower backs as they take a liitle longer to do and we want to get as many tattoos in as we can so it will be pretty much arms, legs and the odd foot here and there.
We hope you will all come and get involved for what is a very good cause and you get a tattoo for helping out! How can you say no to that!
We will update you as the date gets closer. For more info of what is happening around the world go to

New Studio, Guest Artists and 2011 Conventions
We would like to announce that due to the success of our studio in Prescot we are going to need a bigger studio to fit all you lovely people in. Unfortunately this will mean we will be leaving Prescot. However, the good news is we are not moving far.
Our new studio is going to be just 10 minutes down the main road in Knotty Ash, We will be moving to 265 East Prescot Road which is part of the run of shops just opposite the Kwik Fit by the junction between East Prescot Road and Eaton Road. We will be confirming the dates of our move closer to the time but we are looking to be up and running for the first week in December 2010. We will keep you all updated as we get closer to the date.
We will all be working in Prescot until the end of November. So you are still welcome to come down and get booked in and we are also taking booking for the new shop. We will have 3 rooms running in the Knotty Ash studio so this will mean there will be more appointments available for tattoos and piercings.
This means we can bring you more guest artists and the first one we can confirm is the welcome return of international award winning artist Patrick McFarlane, who worked in with us earlier in the year and will be working in the new studio in mid December. If you would like to get booked in with Patrick please contact us ASAP as he will get booked up fast.
Other exciting news from us is that we have now confirmed we will be working the following conventions in the new year.
- Manchester Tattoo Show – March 2011
- Liverpool Tattoo Convention – May 2011
We have a few more that will hopefully be confirmed in the near future details will follow. So if you would like some work done by us at these conventions please get in touch as spaces are already going quick for these.
