Thanks a lot 123.kloot we're really excited about it! Yes we absolutely do small tattoos and are very beginner friendly. We have a short series of videos on youtube with advice for first timers so you might want to check them out here starting with the first one which answers the question 'do tattoos hurt?': tomdhu, Assuming you had a good, experienced tattoo artist in the first place the best and most effective thing you can do is to properly take care of the tattoo while it is healing. That means for the first 6 months keep it out of direct sunlight and treat it with kid gloves - don't go swimming for the first month for example, chlorine isn't going to do you any favours. Beyond this the simplest way to extend the life of your tattoo is to continue to protect it against exposure to the sun. The higher the spf the better as far as tattoos are concerned. It's worth bearing in mind that certain colours do outlast others, the rule of thumb is the darker the ink the better it will last. You might be interested in another of our videos: We hope to see you in the studio at some point!

Hello all. We're thrilled to announce that our bespoke tattoo studio is opening this Saturday at 11am. We made East Dulwich our family home many years ago and have been quietly working away for some time searching for the perfect location for Storyville Tattoo. We were tired of the old trope of a macho, intimidating street shop and wanted to provide an alternative. A peaceful, welcoming, grown up space with the highest standards of work and care - we hope you like it as much as we do. Website will be live very soon but we'd love you to pop by, say hello and maybe share a glass of fizz with us in the garden. You'll find us tucked behind lordship lane, entrance via the blue ornate gates on Ashbourne grove.. just follow the signs on Saturday! For more info find us on instagram, storyvilletatto. . or contact us at info@storyvilletattoo.com In the meantime attached is a sneak preview pic. Hope to see you soon, Nick and Clare
