2nd Skin
I have wanted a new tattoo for a while now. I went to see Sergio when he was based at Shiva in Greenwich with some ideas and he created my own bespoke piece. I think he is an amazing artist and I thoroughly recommend him his new studio 2nd Skin is amazing and I will definitely be going back for more!

Thank you Sergio! I was blessed to find Sergio without a lot of searching, for some reason I had no doubts I was at the right place with the best tattoo artist. And so it turned out - he did EXACTLY what I wanted if not even better. I'm loving my tattoo (which took 8 hours but Sergio respected my wish to do everything at one go even though it was hard work)!

I could honestly write an essay about how great this place is, but I'll keep it brief. I've had a few piercings and a tattoo from here and every single time I go in everyone is extremely friendly, warm and helpful. I'm a really nervous kind of guy and I've been to piercing shops where the energy in the place just feels grey and anxiety inducing but 2ND SKIN is the complete opposite, breath of fresh air.

Wow what can I say spoke to Sergio about what I wanted etc. He came back with his own design which ticked the box.
Was so meticulous when setting everything up and was amazing what he created will definitely be coming back for more

I have been recently at 2nd Skin and was impressed by how clean the studio is. The tattoo artist Sergio was tattooing me is perfectionist and paying attention to details. I have been in many shops and have big number of good art work on me. However, this shop is deserved 5 stars.

The whole experience was excellent! The studio is super clean, entirely in accordance to all H&S regulations, warm, stylish and comfortable.
Sergio did an amazing job recreating a hyper realistic image, I couldn't have asked for more.
