Skin Creation is very good although John is a moody get
If you are after Japanese style or portraits he is your man.Ask for John Treharne.I have had 3 done and all by him.
I wouldn't touch Doc Graham now personally as i have seen some of his work
Send Ely Trendy a pm on here as he has been to a few in Cardiff .
A good artist will charge between 65-80 pounds an hour.If they are really cheap stay away and beware

I got my full sleeve done in a small place opposite the castle in Cardiff. He's only young but the best tattoos I have had it's called silverhand. He's much better then skin creation and doc Graham in my opinion

Ive had a couple done by dai fleet(abracadabra) and chris jones at physical graffiti on city road. Both are shit hot. I had to wait 6 months for dai fleet though.

I know its not City centre but Pleasure and Pain in Aberdare are excellent
Fri Feb 18, 2011 11:39 pm
i got about 14 - 15
difficult to count now as they are blended in to the sleeve
started at docs, done some at skin creation, last work was at bully girl cowbridge rd ely, guy called chris who left was good he moved onto tattoo land in bridgend ? so moved over to jordan in bully girl who has done some great work for me with my star wars and super hero fettish
there are plenty of good tooists around at £50-£60 an hour anyone paying more must have plenty to burn

I know its not in the City but CHAMELEON in Broad Street Barry is very good, if a bit pricey.
Apparently famous for Jonah Lomu coming over from NZ to get work done.

I've just booked in 4 Dai Fleet, may was the earliest app. That Sassykats that some1 mentioned looks good but there seems to be a bit of a waiting list there.

Everyone thinks there's a massive waiting list at Dai Fleet's but the wait is only really if you want him to do it. Yes his other artists also have a bit of a waiting list but they are not as long. My view is he'd only employ them if they were up to the mark, after all it's his rep that would suffer if they weren't.
If your tat is a quick small one then you might even slip in there and get it done there and then between their appointments.
