Skin City Tattoo Dublin: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Brilliant experiences here. Awesome facilities. Cant recommend Mark enough. He has been excellent and super professional in every step of the process. I have also been told I'm at least 10 percent hotter with the tattoos, so seems worth the time and money!
Fantastic experience: Bella was amazing. She not only does beautiful work but she is very attentive. She was always making sure that I was comfortable and communicated what she was doing. I would highly recommend Bella and Skin City Tattoo!! Thank you Bella and thank you Dublin!
Fantastic experience: Hi I just had my second tattoo done by tattoo artist Sophie 01/13/2026 It was lions head Sophie takes pride in her work and she's brilliant to work with as well I am really happy with her work I really recommend Sophie to anyone who's thinking off getting a tattoo done Sophie keep up the amazing work Thanks Eric.
Fantastic experience: I’m beyond grateful for this tattoo. The detail and realism are incredible, The tattoo came out even better than I imagined. and it means so much to me. Thank you for bringing my vision to life, I couldn’t have chosen a better artist.
Negative experience: Looked at the flash for about 5 or 8 minutes without a greeting, girl at the desk seemed more interested in her phone. Walked out because I don't really want to get tattooed by people who don't want to tattoo me. Otherwise it did look clean and put together in the shop.
Fantastic experience: I came here for a tattoo in 2019, with a specific design-- had an amazing experience. I returned in 2025 for a cover up of a different, older tattoo because I was so happy/impressed with my previous experience, that I knew Mark + Skin City could do the job. I love not only the work they do, but the friendly and personable way they treat everyone. I recommend them to everyone seeking an artful tattoo in Dublin.
Fantastic experience: Very professional and friendly vibe. First time I got tattoos and I'm very happy I chose your studio. Thank you Nadja for the quality work. 10/10 experience.
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing experience. Mark was extremely helpful in making the design the exact way I wanted it, even with all my changes. Will definitely be going back eveytime im in Dublin!
Fantastic experience: Excellent experience. I got tattooed at Skin City 3 weeks ago and just waited for my tattoo to fully heal to leave my review. Before the appointment: I set my appointment via instagram, the reply was quick, friendly and I was provided with all necessary information beforehand. The studio: Welcoming, comforting, very clean and professional. Friendly staff allover. Minus point for not having a coffee machine. The artist: I was working with Mark which was an absolute pleasure. His calm, relaxed and professional manner made me feel extremely comfortable throughout the whole process. Not only did I feel in very good hands but also very safe to voice any concerns, questions or possible design and placement changes. There was no rush, no pressure and help in decision making if needed. The tattoo: Clean linework, no blowouts, saturated blacks, crisp white highlights and a lovely whip-shade. As any I´d expect from an experienced artist. Overall great quality. Summary: I´ve gotten tattooed all over the world and Skin City is a 10/10, absolutely recommend and would go again.
Fantastic experience: Loved our experience here! We were visiting from another country and they were able to fit three walk-ins into their schedule with short notice (messaged on instagram the night before). We were done in less than 1.5 hours! Special shout out to Yago (@ink_bimbo), we love our tatts! 2 of the 3 were custom, not flashes.
Fantastic experience: Easily booked a tattoo online before my vacation. Mark did an excellent job on my Celtic knot and made sure that I liked the color, size, and placement with efficiency. I'm not one for small talk but he was fun to talk to as well. Highly recommend. Can't wait to come back.
Fantastic experience: I was visiting Dublin from London and made an impulsive decision to get a tattoo whilst I was there. I contacted a few places and luckily Skin City had some walk in availability, and I'm so happy with my choice. I got a plane to represent my love of travelling, and Mark was my artist. Mark was an absolute star and took his time to make sure I was happy with design and placement. He was very chatty which made the experience a lot more relaxing and I'm so happy with my final piece. Thank you to Mark and Skin City Tattoo!
Fantastic experience: Great shop better artist, thanks Bella for the great experience.
Fantastic experience: I asked for a full colour Tree of Life tattoo and Mark did not disappoint! ♥️
Fantastic experience: Travelled from Canada and pre-booked tattoos for me and my wife. We both had 6 hour sessions with exceptional artists and are VERY happy with the results! Highly recommend this place for ink! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Very cool, very clean shop. Sat for a fairly long tattoo with Sofia and it was a great experience. It's a nice, laid back atmosphere. They play good music, and the space itself is very nice. Looking forward to going back!
Fantastic experience: I have the up most respect for Skin City, my girl Nadja is my tattooist for life, she just gets me! I'll get a couple of bits and pieces from other tattoo artists that I love but I'll always go back to her for the bulk of the work because she takes all of my ideas and makes them so much better. Skin City is so chill and all the artists and previous artists are extremely creative legends and inspirations. I 100% recommend dropping into Skin City if you want some banging pieces that are specifically tailored to you ✌❤️
Fantastic experience: Got my first tattoo from here when I was 19 and now they're the first place I go to if I want something new. I've done appointments and walk ins, and absolutely enjoyed every single one. 5 years later, almost 30 tattoos and I don't see myself going anywhere else. Multiple artists of different talents and styles that its honestly hard to choose from. All great staff, all professional and welcoming, solid team. Will definitely be returning for another 30 tattoos
Fantastic experience: Thank you Nadja for the tattoo. It was very well done, very clean shop, and the whole process was very well thought out
Fantastic experience: Did a walk in and was taken in even though they were supposed to be closed. This was my first tattoo and it was made an incredibly special experience. The tattoo is beautiful and I couldn't be happier. My mom also got a tattoo and we are both so happy.
Fantastic experience: Couldn’t be happier with Yagos work. Extremely talented artist and all round gentleman. Highly recommend for anyone looking for their next tattoo.
Fantastic experience: The best place to take a tattoo. friendly and skilled staff. The hygiene is high level.. Strongly recommend!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic experience: I had my first tattoo with Dhara and I was nervous but she did a fantastic job, really delicate design, we chose everything together. I didn't feel any pain. It was a brilliant experience
Fantastic experience: Had a great experience getting my first large tattoo with Sofia, she was a pleasure to deal with and her work is amazing
Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience with this tattoo artist! The work was incredibly detailed and clean, and the atmosphere was very comfortable and professional. They really listened to what I wanted and brought my idea to life even better than I imagined. I’m beyond happy with the result and would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for quality and creativity. Can’t wait to come back for my next piece! Thanks a million ink_bimbo
Fantastic experience: 7th time there yesterday, absolutely amazing work and phenomenally friendly artists as always. Fainted during my tattoo and everyone was so helpful and friendly as they made sure I was alright at the time and afterwards aswell. Sandra is an amazing artist and everybody else seems incredible too so this is THE BEST place to go if you're looking for some new ink in Dublin. 10/10 easily
Negative experience: I was on vacation in Dublin and I walk in to the studio to get a tattoo. It was in the afternoon, and the receptionist told us there wasn’t enough time for a small tattoo for me and my friend when we actually check the opening hours in google maps... We ended up going to another studio where we were welcomed and taken care of right away. It’s a shame the reception here were so unfriendly, especially considering how talented the artists seem on Instagram. You should really reconsider your priorities.
Fantastic experience: Got a tattoo last week and I couldn't be happier how it turned out, the artist Mark went above and beyond. I'll be definitely going back for more and would highly recommend to anyone
Fantastic experience: I was tattooed here recently for the third time and my experience has always been really good. Sandra was the artist this time and she was phenomenal. I loved the design she made but she was very patient with making some changes I requested and even incorporated an old tattoo that could not be covered. We spoke regularly during the process and she ensured I was comfortable throughout. We had a half an hour break which really helped my energy levels.
Negative experience: Visited here last year with my sister and got matching tattoos to only now find out we have been well and truly ripped off. Other family members of ours have just been, same hotel, got the same size tattoo for half the price, per person. We feel absolutely ripped off by them, they seen us coming and completely ripped us off. The guy was also late even though we were on time. Shame cause the studio was nice. To now find out they clearly take advantage of tourists has made us feel pretty disappointed.
Hi Ryan, we've always treated both foreign and domestic customers equally, if you'd like to send us an email ([email protected]) we'd be more than happy to look into the matter for you. -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Tattoo art perfect. Good contact. Nice guys and great price-performance. Felt well & so happy with this tattoo.
Thanks Tobias, hope to see you back one day :) -Skin City
Negative experience: The first experience I had at Skin City Tattoo Dublin was amazing staff were very friendly the guy who did my tattoo was really nice guy and amazing Tatoo Artist was very happy with work and customer service 5star rating . My second appointment was today I arrived at shop on time filled our paper work the guy said he would tell Artist I arrived he then left the shop the Artist was at back of shop chatting to another Artist they new I was there I stood there for 10 minutes being ingnored there was no other customers in Shop which I would understand if they were busy I then decided to leave as I thought this was very rude and bad manners poor customer service when ur paying alot of money for tatoo and decent customer service which I did not get on this occasion bad experience round trip ..signed Stephen
Hi Stephen, the artist was aware that you were present in the reception, and after reviewing in store CCTV they were simply finishing setting up their station, having a chat while they are doing it is allowed. Thank you. -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Just back from getting a tattoo from here today, I absolutely love the place, the staff are so nice and welcoming, the shop is spotless. I will definitely be back.
Thank you Megan, looking forward to the next time :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Had my first tattoo here today with Nadia! I'm so happy with it! Nadia was amazing and very calm with me always checking that I was comfortable and OK. Highly recommend her. What a beautiful place, art work throughout the building was beautiful. Thank you for an amazing experience. I love my little shamrock!
Thank you Tania :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: We walked in today and had Nardia do our tattoos we had 2 little shamrocks ☘️ she was so lovely. 5 stars from me and if u in the area and wanting that little some thing from ya hols pop in and ask for her.
Thank you Donna, happy to hear your feedback. Hope you guys enjoyed the Guinness tour afterwards :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Awesome shop:) ask for Mark he is amazing to deal with,super professional clean fun and gives you exactly what you ask for like a mirror. Have had multiple tattoo's from him and have NEVER been disappointed, could not possible be happier with anything else A++++.
Thanks Jonathan, see you again soon :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Unfortunately this review is for some reason very late! Better late than never! Anyhow, what a fantastic experience I had with Mark about 2 years ago now. He went above and beyond to accommodate me and the tattoo that I wanted. My tattoo took around 11-12 hours. After my initial appointment it looked unrealistic to get the tattoo that I wanted done in the time that I had as it would have typically taken about 2 sessions. I explained to Mark that I was leaving Ireland in a few days and that I really wanted the tattoo that he made for me. He told me that my tattoo would typically take two sessions which was disappointing considering my time constraints! He then willingly offered to do the tattoo in one session. And for my first tattoo it was quite the experience. I was impressed with his artistry, and attention to detail. He listened to what I wanted and created a masterpiece. Mark is an absolute gent and I would highly recommend him to others. When I return to the homeland next year I will be stopping in to get more work done. Thanks for all that you did for me Mark. He bent over backwards to get my tattoo completed before I left! Thanks for all that you did Mark!
Hey, so happy to hear you had a great experience. Looking forward to seeing you again. Cheers. - Skin City
Fantastic experience: Great experience! My wife decided to get her next tattoo while on Holiday in Dublin. The communication I had with the owner Karl was flawless. My wife absolutely loves her new tattoo done by Alexandra and I enjoyed a pleasant conversation with Karl wihile Alexandra worked her magic! Thank you everyone at Skin City!
Thanks a million Mark, very happy to hear that your wife likes her tattoo. Also thanks a lot for the suggestions during our conversation, it's something we've started to look into. Hope to see you guys back sometime. -Karl/Skin City
Fantastic experience: I got my first tattoo here a month ago. Being an older person getting my first tattoo it felt a bit strange. But the artist Filipe made me feel very comfortable, explained the procedure. I will be going back for another one soon, thanks Filipe I will be back.
Thank you :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: I can't say enough good things about these guys. We were visiting from Canada and had booked a tattoo appointment for my husband before leaving. The day of the appointment, my husband and I woke up and my husband couldn't find his phone anywhere. Without it, we had no access to any funds whatsoever. We ran to Skin City and with only giving them 10 minutes notice, we explained our situation. We were sure we would lose our deposit and well... that was that. Karl was so incredibly understanding (probably because I was bawling like a baby) and told us that we could just move our appointment. We had no choice as we HAD to find my husband's phone. Luckily, we were coming back to Ireland on our way home to Canada. They rebooked us - no problem. We found the phone, and continued on our trip around the Island. We went back for our new appointment and Emanuel did an AMAZING JOB! He was so lovely to work with and did exactly what my husband wanted. I would recommend Skin City to ANYONE wanting a tattoo in Dublin.
Thank you Jessica, we're glad you guys found the phone and it didn't cast a shadow over your trip. Also really happy to hear about your experience in the shop. Have a safe flight home :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Great tattoo studio, everyone really friendly and helpful. This is my second time here and totally amazed by the results. My sister also had a tattoo, both done by the apprentice, and she was fantastic, would definitely recommend.
Thank you Gina, hope to see you again in the future :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: I have had three tattoos by three different artists at Skin City, each one carefully designed and personal to me. It doesn't matter what you want, they will pair you with the best artist who will take your ideas and make them even better than you thought it could be. I will never go anywhere else, and my husband has had a few done here as well and feels the exact same. Just can't recommend them enough. They're real artists and the place is thoroughly professional.
Thank you very much Catherine, see you again soon :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: My husband and I both got tattoos at skincity during a recent trip to Ireland. I booked 3 months ahead from a different country with no difficulties. Felipe was quick and efficient with his drawings and we done before I knew it. Everything there was spotless. It's a great looking shop.
Thank you Sindi :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Got my first tattoo ever with Sandra last Friday. I'm absolutely thrilled with my tattoo. Sandra was so helpfull and quickly sorted out what I wanted,and then did it to perfection. Sandra Thank you.
Thank you Edmund :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Recently went on vacation to Dublin, my wife surprised me with a tattoo appointment at Skin City. I was only informed 2 days before that this was happening which to be honest left me with a bit of anxiety. Mark, my artist, was extremely welcoming as was everyone there. Mark did an amazing job of working with me on the design and giving expert advice on placement and orientation. The piece turned out amazing! If you're ever in Dublin looking to get some work done, make this place THE SPOT!! Thank you Mark and everyone at Skin City!
Fantastic experience: I contacted the shop 3 months before traveling there from the US to set up a surprise appointment for my husband for his birthday. The shop manager, Karl, was amazingly helpful and friendly throughout the entire process. When we got there in person, it was a great experience! The artist, Mark, was very patient and offered insight while working through the design with my husband, ensuring that it was just right. He made jokes and laughed with us and made it a comfortable experience all around. I would highly recommend checking out Skin City Tattoo if you are in Dublin and looking for a great place to get some great ink from some wonderful people.
Thanks a million Sharre, it was a pleasure meeting you guys. Hope to see you back someday :) -Skin City Tattoo
Fantastic experience: A friend of me and I made 2 appointments (with anton & mark), so we could each get a big tattoo when visiting Ireland. Everything worked out perfect, both artists were super cool, funny and chill. The tattoos came out great and they didn’t even charge the max. amount of what was planned via text messages. Also great service, they told us how to take care of it (even though we both already had tattoos), recommended places/positioning, so it would look good and so on. Also they asked if we’re happy after applying the stencil, made corrections and happily explained everything we asked for, and even asked if we wanted the exact picture we brought (own designs) or if we need changes / if they should use their own style. 10/10 would recommend, and if I’m ever in Dublin again, I’d choose no other studio than this one! Thank you a lot!
Negative experience: Had 2 very small, around the size of a 2 euro coin, basic tattoos as a walk in today, each taking 25mins to complete. Despite being told the minimum charge was €80 for each tattoo when it came to pay I was charged €200 for both. Absolute joke of a price. I asked the receptionist to explain what the artists hourly rate was so I could try and understand how they had the front to charge €200 for 50mins work and she couldn’t grasp the simple question. Lovely people however clearly happy to extort tourists. AGREE THE EXACT PRICE BEFORE TRUSTING ANYONE AT THIS PLACE.
Fantastic experience: My husband and I went to Ireland for our honeymoon in August of 2023 We knew we wanted tattoos to commemorate our time together so we looked over a bunch of tattoo shops/artists in the area! We found Skin City and really liked the tattoo designs and the positive reviews!! We got them done on our last day of our honeymoon! Denilson did my beautiful watercolor sun, and Eric did my husband's tree of life!! We love the tattoos SO much! Perfect way to end our honeymoon!
Fantastic experience: Cool vibe. VERY busy. Bit pricey in my opinion. Specifically for the size i got vs other tattoos Ive gotten. But professional. CLEAN!
Fantastic experience: Really amazing artists here I got my tattoo today and it turned out perfectly. Chatted with other tattoo artists there and they are a super friendly team . It's a really cool place looks great and great music. I will definitely be back there again for more ink . Thank you guys
Thanks a million Pamela :)
Fantastic experience: I have been going to Skin City for nearly 10 years now (!!!), in fact, currently busy plotting my next session. Every single person who works there is great, always super helpful. The artists are always happy to work with you and help you figure out ideas and designs, I've done my last few with Mark and he's always brilliant and patient even though I come in with, say, Taylor Swift tattoo plans and there's never any judgement, just advise and helping make it happen! (Thank you!!) If you're looking for a tattoo studio, I would absolutely recommend Skin City all the way.
Thanks Katie, see you soon for your next one ;) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: I booked a tattoo here with my family for our first tattoo. We are from the states and wanted a tattoo to commemorate our time in Ireland. Our artist, Mark, was fantastic! He took time to personalize with all four of us with the location of the tattoo, aftercare of the tattoo, and even took time to walk us through how it would feel in order to calm our nerves. It’s a very clean facility and I would return to here to get another tattoo! It was a fantastic first experience!
Thanks a million Maille, pleasure meeting you all :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Walked in to inquire about getting a souvenir tattoo as I do on trips! These awesome people were able to accept me as a walk-in , draw up my idea, work with my budget and have me out the door all in about 2 hrs :) Thanks so much
Thank you :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Sandra in Skin City was the artist appointed to me and I looked at some of her portfolio before confirming the booking. I was very impressed with her work. From start to finish she was brilliant. Her attention to detail and care for her clients wishes were exceptional. She made absolutely sure that everything was 100% before I left. I couldn't be happier with the whole process. Great studio and artists. Highly recommended. Photos were taken on the day and with covering and a week later
Thanks Patrick :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Great place for a Tattoo! Very professional service and attention to detail. Pity they only take cash, but cannot say anything bad about it! Definitely worth a visit for that memory!
Thanks a lot Jay :) - Skin City
Fantastic experience: I scheduled my appointment in advance. Sandra was my tattoo artist, and she did not disappoint. I'm so happy with my tat. Highly recommend.
Thank you Sondra, hope to see you again :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: By far the best tattoo studio I’ve been to in Dublin. I had an amazing experience with Sandra, highly recommended her as an artist she does beautiful work! :)
Thanks a million Megan :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Great service at a weeks notice from skin city dublin, fitted me and my son in for matching tattoos both done at the same time by Felipe and Anton, they worked together to make sure they looked identical- very happy and would definitely recommend
Thanks a million Rob :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Got a tattoo today from Sandra, amazing work, she is so talented I’m so happy with the result. Highly recommend her and the studio Very friendly staff and gorgeous place.
Thanks a million Cian, see you again :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Spontaneous tattoo moment but would highly reccomend this tattoo shop if your looking for a good quality tattoo at a fair price! My tattoo was small and decided to go for one of the apprentices Elle. She was amazing, had good banter and made me and my partner feel at home, she did a great job I would definitely go back!
Thanks a million Connor, see you again! -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Was with a friend who was getting a piercing and the staff were so nice, great atmosphere and fascinating decor too. My friend said the piercing was quick and almost painless and that the staff member was lovely. Highly recommended
Thanks a million Eoin :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Got my first tattoo today. Thank you so much for making it one of my favourite experiences ever! The staff was very understanding and there was no rush. I could take all the time I needed. I picked a quite delicate template and it came out even better than I imagined.
Hi Lena, good to hear. Hope to see you again. Thanks a lot. - Skin City
Fantastic experience: Got an amazing tattoo today in Skin City, Dublin. Staff were friendly and I felt very comfortable, place spotless and the artist that done my tattoo was Denilson. I'm so impressed by his skills, his work ethic and attention to detail. Cannot recommend this place enough.
Thanks a million Susan, hope to see you again.
Fantastic experience: Wanted to end my trip to Dublin with an Irish Shamrock tattoo. Satisfied and happy with the result! Really friendly tattoo artist (Felipe) and the price was good as well. Thank you so much!☘️
Thanks for the feedback, we're happy you had a positive experience. Hope to see you again. - Skin City
Fantastic experience: Decided to go here for my second tattoo and I honestly couldn’t be happier. Seamless process from booking an appointment all the way through. I was given an appointment with Sandra and she was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. She helped me with a few touch ups and recommendations to my design before getting the tattoo. Such attention to detail and very welcoming! Would highly recommend here for anyone looking to get work done in Dublin! Will 100% be going back here for future work
Thanks a million Joey!, see you again! - Skin City!
Fantastic experience: My girlfriend and I had an incredible experience with Skin City. They were able to get us a weekend slot a few days in advance and worked us both all day and even stayed late to finish. Her piece was done by Mark and worked with her for 2 hours to get a design she liked and ultimately gave her an amazing forearm piece. My artist was Denilson and he did an incredible Celtic/Norse piece that took up my entire right chest. It was beautifully done and he was great to work with. This shop is clean, professional, and incredible talented and I would recommend to anyone!!
Thanks Connor, you guys were great! Hope to see you both again. -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Got my very first tattoo here recently. I had asked for a silhouette effect of a photograph and the artist Felipe knew intuitively exactly what I wanted and nailed the design first time. Very happy with the end result and it's a really cool place.
Cheers James :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: I did a tattoo with Eric Jordan in my right arm last month, it's a great professional and the job done is amazing, I will make another one
Thank you -Skin City
Fantastic experience: I'm Emily's dad from the previous review. We did come in from Canada knowing full well we were getting tattoos commemorating our trip to Ireland together. We found Skin City, and literally could not have done any better. I had Sandra do both of my traveling tattoos, and they are amazing. She is an absolute artist. If you are in Dublin, and looking to get a tattoo this is the place to go. Reasonable prices, high quality work. I would say ask for Sandra, but my daughter might disagree. Either way, you can't go wrong.
Thanks a million Rob :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Found this place while visiting Dublin from Canada, both my dad and I got tattoos and we were both so pleased. He had Sandra and I had Denilson, and we could not have been happier with the final product! Prices were very fair and reflected the quality of work. I loved Denilson’s work so much that I went back and got three by him. He has such attention to detail and was also very thorough with the aftercare process. The team was very helpful during consultation and happily answered all of my many questions which was so appreciated. The next time I return to Dublin I will definitely be back. Great atmosphere and amazing team— could not recommend this place enough.
Thanks Emily, we appreciate the kind words. Hope to see you and your dad back :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: I recently got tattooed with Eric and it was a great experience, he had great attention to detail and the result was amazing. Not my first tattoo but it was by far the best one. Highly recommended!
Thanks Marcelo, appreciate it :)
Fantastic experience: I recently had the pleasure of working with Anna to fix a tattoo I got in Las Vegas, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Anna is an incredibly talented artist with a keen eye for detail and a dedication to professional standards that is truly impressive. From the moment I met her, I was struck by her approachable and charismatic personality, which put me at ease right away. Working with Anna was a true pleasure. She took the time to listen to my ideas and preferences, and she worked tirelessly to ensure that the final design was exactly what I wanted. Throughout the process, she was patient, communicative, and always willing to answer any questions I had. In the end, the tattoo Anna created for me was nothing short of amazing. The level of detail and artistry she brought to the piece was truly impressive, and I couldn't be more thrilled with the final result. If you're looking for a tattoo artist who is not only incredibly talented but also charismatic and approachable. I highly recommend Anna, an amazing person to work with. I feel really lucky to have had her save and improve my tatttoo.
Cheers John, we really appreciate that! :)
Fantastic experience: I was with my wife for the 10th wedding anniversary in Ireland, we have spontaneously decided on a partner tattoo. The advice as well as the implementation were more than satisfactory.
Thank you so much for the feedback. Hope to see you again :) -Skin City
Fantastic experience: My friend and I were walk-ins on St. Patricks’s Day and we had a really great experience with our artist Denilson. He was so patient and gentle which we really appreciated, and once I saw my friend’s I immediately asked if he could give me one next haha. I could not recommend him more! We were there for about 5 hours so extra thanks for putting up with us for that long.
Thanks for the feedback Stephanie, thanks for dropping by. Glad to hear you guys had a positive experience with us, hope to see you again in the future. -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Excellent atmosphere, talented artists and good vibes. Highly recommended. Will be getting all my tattoos done in here from now on.
Thanks a million Christian, looking forward to seeing you again :)
Negative experience: Zero Stars. I booked with Tattoo Artist Eric in December for the 4th of February. I messaged the artist on the Tuesday to confirm my booking and received an confirmation, but when I drove over an hour to Dublin, I was told that my booking wasn't made and they cannot help me.... This is so unprofessional and I would highly recommend that you think twice before picking this establishment , you might be turned away like I was. If this is how they run a business then I don't even want to know how they actually do tattoos.
Hi Andrew, we understand your frustration and apologies what happened today but the shop was made completely unaware of your appointment by Eric. We had absolutely no knowledge. We couldn't accommodate at that time as Eric had a booking that was made through the shop, and all other artists also had bookings. We did offer you availability at 2pm but again we understand if you couldn't make that time. We do agree that it was unprofessional on Eric’s behalf. But if we knew about it we would have acted in advance. Again much apologies. -Skin City
Fantastic experience: Mark was so lovely and helping. He took his time to make the tattoos exactly to our liking. Very professional and kind people. Very hygienic place! Thanks so much!
Thanks for the feedback Marilyne :)
Fantastic experience: Passing through Dublin with the desire to get stung. What could be better than an address with a reputation for quality. Thank you very much to the young tattoo artist whose first name I did not ask but the photos will speak better of your work.
Hey Stephane, the artist was Anna, nice photos. Glad to hear the positive feedback, much appreciated. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: Fran did my tattoo. He added his touch to the picture I showed him and it is amazing. He's incredible artist that I would absolutely recommend....so glad I decided to go to him and definitely will be getting one more...
Thank you Petra :)
Fantastic experience: Was visiting Dublin with family and for a spur of the moment idea, my cousin and I decided to get a tattoo here to remember our trip to Ireland. We both were walk-ins and got two different small tattoos done fairly quickly, and pricing wasn't unfair in my opinion. We both showed Anna, our tattoo artist, a couple example designs of what we wanted and she delivered gorgeous results! Thank you again!
Appreciate the feedback Raigan, thanks again for dropping by :)
Fantastic experience: HIGHLY recommended!! I was in Dublin on vacation and stopped in to see if I could talk to an artist about some ideas… Met with Fran right away and he knew exactly what I was going for without me explaining it very well. He drew up a sketch for me that night and I was able to get an appointment the next day. He was great and has clearly been doing this a long time. I couldn’t be happier with his design and how easy the whole process was. Would highly recommend Skin City Dublin and would encourage anyone to check out Fran Hartnetts work. He has a very unique/ incredible style and you won’t be able to get the same tattoo anywhere else! Thanks again to everyone there and for sure will go back if I find myself in Ireland again. 10/10
Hi Shane, glad to hear. We appreciate it. Thanks.
Fantastic experience: I had my first ever tattoo with Taker yesterday he designed exactly what a wanted I was very nervous he told me he was soft and I have to say he was brilliant it was painless he was absolutely brilliant so efficient and friendly my tattoo is amazing I love it I can highly recommend him
Thanks Pauline :)
Fantastic experience: This place was awesome. Stayed open late so our whole family could commemorate our trip with matching tattoos. Fran did my tattoo and he is beyond talented. He redrew mine and I have to say the rest of family is a little jealous. This simple tat was way below his talent threshold and he still put all of his effort into it. He’s a great tattoo artist and my next trip back to Dublin I will be looking him up ❤️❤️

Good to hear, thanks.
Fantastic experience: Kevin @ taker tattoos was amazing. Can’t say enough about the experience. He stayed late accommodate a walk in appointment. Was very friendly & professional & the final result of the tattoo was better then I could ask for! Would give him 6 stars if I could!
Much appreciated Thomas, hope to see you again!
Fantastic experience: Great place with interesting wall fixtures. Denilson was my artist. He didn't understand at first my design but once he got it, he was off with it! Lovely studio and spacious unlike some. 10/10 will go again
Thanks Matt!!
Fantastic experience: I had a wonderful experience at Skin City. They were extremely accommodating and professional. Eric did an absolutely phenomenal job on my tattoo.
Thanks Chase! Good to hear, hope to see you back someday.
Fantastic experience: Working with the reception and artist was very easy, even being in different countries. Appointment time, deposit info and quote were on point. Parlor felt extremely clean, staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Tattoo artist was prompt and did an absolutely beautiful job. Cannot recommend enough.
Thanks alot Anne Marie!
Fantastic experience: My tattoo from Fran was insane! I cant believe the subtle, amazing minute details he achieved, I'm so delighted! It was my first tattoo and i was made so comfortable, absolutely amazing.
Thanks Emma :)
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Skin City! I reached out in January about an appointment in March and they were able to get me all set-up without any issues. I went to my appointment and it was seamless. Everyone was friendly and everything seemed nice and clean. Highly recommend this shop and I love my tattoo from Denilson Paranhos!
Thanks a million Danielle!
Negative experience: We got a tattoo in this shop. Despite having an appointment they made us wait 30 min. Badly done tattoo and the tattoo artist had a very heavy hand. They did not accept the card and only charged us in cash. They didn't give us the receipt and even when we asked they didn't give it to us. 3 small tattoos and 10 min each, 240 euros. Embarrassing. Highly not recommended
Hi Marta, much apologies for the wait. Do you mind sending us a photo of your tattoo so I can show the artist please ? As you have signed the consent forms that state that you were happy with the result and on observation you seemed very happy with your tattoo. Our minimum charge is €80 each which is a standard rate in Dublin. We don't have a receipt machine, most tattoo studios don't give receipts as they serve very little purpose, unlike purchasing other forms of products. Also we don't take card only cash, this is how we have always operated, same with a lot of other tattoo studios. Thanks.
Fantastic experience: The experience I had here was prefect! The artist called Taker that I thanks a lot made a beautiful tattoo and we discuss the whole time ! I really enjoyed the place and recommend it for the people that want to have a tattoo and a great souvenir from Dublin On top of that the location’s style is really good and well made (I found the decoration very nice, old industrial), the mood of the place will make you forget the time you spend in it Thanks again to Skin City Tattoo, you guys are so nice !
Thanks so much Jan, hope to see you again - Karl
Fantastic experience: Amazing staff and artist. I got Sandra. It cost 600 which I though was great. It took a full 6 hours and I am delighted with the tattoo. It was my first one. It gets very very sore so be prepared. Bring chocolate and fizzy drinks for your break half way through. You honestly get so and sore also bring a spare jumper to lie on as you are in the same position for hours! I will be back for more
Fantastic experience: Currently have 2 tattoos that I got done in Skin City, most recent being done by Sandra. They are amazing artists and very professional. Music in the shop is always good! Cannot recommend Skin City enough. Will definitely be back for my next one!
Fantastic experience: Currently have 2 tattoos that I got done in Skin City and just booked another for next week. They are amazing artist and so professional. The shop it’s self is immaculate. Cannot recommend Skin City enough !
Thank you very much for your reviews and hope to see you again. :)
Fantastic experience: I got my first tattoo about 2 months ago with skin city tattoo ( Fran Harnet )and I was amazed on the skills and professional way this guys works ! Today I got my second tattoo with Fran again and all I can say is wow I am so happy ! I can’t Wait to get my number 3 done !! Well done all of you guys
That's good to hear that! Thank you very Much for trusting us!! Skin City Crew
Fantastic experience: Fantastic shop with Fantastic friendly staff. Had the best full day session with Vini, so happy with the work. If I could knock off half a star I would, charged 5 euro for tat cream after paying for a full session, not good customer relations. Return business has to be more important than a fiver!!!
Hi Al, Thank you for your 5 stars review it means a lot to us :) hope to see you again.
Fantastic experience: I recently had a tattoo done here at Skin City Tattoo and I have to say I thought they were brilliant. firstly the shop was absolutely spotless and my artist Mark, was brilliant. Very nice, professional and he did a brilliant job. I would highly recommend skin city and Mark. thanks
