GED is an absolute legend. Fantastic artist, professional, certified and insurance, spotless studio, amazing attention to detail, after care and customer service is tip top. I would give 10 stars out of 5 if I could. Highly recommended! I've had around 15 hours of work done by him so far, and many more planned.

Awesome. Design was perfect, the actual tattooing is not like you're being butchered, and Ged is just very down to earth and keeps you occupied while he works.

GED is 10000000% the best tattooist i have ever been too. I've been going almost on a weekly basis for almost 6 months. The work he's done is amazing. And the work he's done on most of my previous tattoos to fix and improve them are remarkable. And some i thought he wouldn't be able to do anything with, they was that bad. But they've all come out so good. Luckily he's only a 5 minute drive from me. But he's so worth the travel to get to. He's great to chat and have a laugh and banter with. Makes you feel comfortable and makes sure you're 100% happy before and after tattooing you. And you will not be disappointed with his work.

What a great find. A tattoo artist that listens but knows when to step in and stop you making a bad decision. Had loads of tattoos in many different places and Ged is by far the most gentle. I’ve already booked in for my next piece so that should give you an idea of how good it is. Great job guys

Had a tattoo done today by Ged exactly how i wanted it. Very friendly professional and patient, but most of all gentle with his needles. Would recommend 100%

I had my first ever tattoo with Ged, and I was nervous but he was so reassuring and kept saying I didn’t have to go through with anything if I didn’t like it etc.

I had a design and he adjusted it to make it work to cover a scar I have.
I am over the moon with the end result, but what’s more is he’s such a nice guy, we had a laugh during it but he was also very professional, I felt so at ease. Thank you so much!

Ged has done amazing at Re working my rather large back piece for me. It was very dark and not really how I expected it to look. (By some one else ) GED has brought it alive by adding colour and re-working the whole piece to say I’m pleased is an understatement. Thank you. He also did me a new arm piece of two beautiful roses that I absolutely Love.
Would deffo recommend Ged!

Couldn’t recommend Ged and his talented tattooing skills any more. Made me and my mum feel really comfortable and had a great laugh. Delighted with my first tattoo and will definitely be coming back!
