Black Crown Tattoo

I have been going to Gaz (Gareth Miller) since he was at Physical Poetry on Hyde Park Corner so it made sense to go back to him time and again. He is amazingly talented, very quick and super imaginative. He knows his art and what will look good and he doesn’t commit to a piece unless he is 100% about it (which helps when it is going on your skin forever… not that some other artists feel the same!) I would recommend this studio highly. From the minute you walk in and witness how clean it is, to the stunning, gentleman’s club décor, this studio fills you with confidence. Looking through the portfolios on display only cements this feeling. Only thing is that you need to book in advance, but if you’re flexible (unlike me!) then you should be fine.

Black Crown is a gorgeous studio with cool décor (Chesterfield couches, chandeliers, good artwork). Chris did an awesome cover up for me that I’ll always be proud of. Incidentally, his website is

If you want a tattoo in Leeds, this is the best place to go. Don’t even bother with somewhere that has an array of Chinese lettering on the wall for you to choose from. Well if that’s what you want, there you go but if you’re looking for original artwork that is custom designed to suit your needs at a perfect cost, then Black Crown is the only place to go.
Black Crown is relatively new to Leeds however, the tattoo artists are a combination of former artists from Leeds’ two top tattoo studios Ultimate Skin and Physical Poetry. The best in Leeds have combined to open up this brilliant tattoo shop. The shop is set in a really nice location, a minutes walk from millennium square and the décor is right on trend.
I highly recommend Chris, he’s done alot of work for me and has great experience as an artists. He puts his all into his artwork, creating something original with all the aspects you want. All the guys in Black Crown are great to talk to and aren’t your typical tattoo shop types, you know tattoos on the face, huge muscles, not interested in anything you have to say types.
Their hourly rate is £70 which is pretty average for fabulous artwork. If you’re paying any less than £60/​hour you’re probably at the wrong place. You pay for what you get at tattoo shops and what you want is something that you aren’t going to regret or dislike.
