Went to Paul Egan for my very first tattoo and wasn't disappointed. He's a friendly, professional tattooist and doesn't mess around, can't wait for my next.

Hi Paul, Just to say a big thank you for the work done to date. Polynesian tattoo coming along nicely. Paul has a very steady hand and great attention to detail. Unfortunately the first artist was not so good and Paul has had to fix it in many places. A great lesson to those reading is do your research before getting something permanent. Wish I had found him to do the full tattoo. See you soon!! (Tried to type this earlier but the site would not let me add it 🙂 )
