Why Private Tattoo Rooms Matter: A Safe Space at Hammersmith Tattoo London

When it comes to getting tattooed in London, your experience shouldn't just be about the design — it should be about how you feel during the process. Yet, far too often, tattoo studios follow the same open-space layout: multiple beds in one room, artists chatting across the floor, and customers walking by while you're half undressed, anxious, and vulnerable.

At Hammersmith Tattoo London, we do things differently — and for good reason.

Total privacy, zero distractions. Every session at Hammersmith Tattoo happens behind closed doors — just you and your artist. No stares, no stress.

The Problem with Open-Space Tattoo Studios

Let’s be honest: being in an open tattoo studio can feel intimidating. You're lying on a bed in the middle of a room, partially undressed, possibly in pain — while strangers (other clients and even artists) are watching, walking past, or worse, staring.

Maybe the tattoo you’re getting is in an intimate placement. Maybe it’s deeply personal. Or maybe you’re just not comfortable with your body being exposed in a room full of people.

Whatever the reason, open studios can leave you feeling:

• Anxious or self-conscious

• Distracted and uncomfortable

• Unable to relax, enjoy, or even tolerate the pain

• Judged — especially if your tattoo idea is unusual, sensitive, or misunderstood

This is a major reason many people put off getting a tattoo altogether. And it's completely understandable.

Getting tattooed shouldn’t feel like a stage performance. Skip the open-plan circus — our rooms are made for comfort, calm, and confidence.

Total Privacy at Hammersmith Tattoo London

We believe tattooing should be empowering, not anxiety-inducing. That’s why Hammersmith Tattoo London offers completely private tattoo rooms for every session.

🗝️ Each artist works in a separate, enclosed space — a real room with a door that can be fully shut. Once you're inside, it’s just you and your tattoo artist. No one else walking by, no one watching, and no distractions.

Whether you're:

• Getting your first tattoo

• Booking for a sensitive area (e.g., ribs, sternum, thighs, or intimate placements)

• Struggling with body confidence

• Wanting a safe and calm space to manage pain or anxiety

• Needing to speak freely about a deeply personal design idea

• Worried that your tattoo might be judged or misunderstood

—we've got you covered. Literally and emotionally.

Some tattoos need more privacy — whether it’s the placement or the meaning. That’s why all our sessions are one-on-one, in closed rooms.

Private Tattoo Rooms - Inclusive, Discreet, and Judgement-Free

We take pride in being an inclusive, body-positive studio. Your gender, your body type, your background, your design idea — they’re yours. We’re just here to bring them to life in the most comfortable and respectful way possible.

✅ Want a female or male tattoo artist? 

✅ Need to make sure the studio space is fully private? 

✅ Prefer a quiet, calm environment?

No problem. We accommodate all requests, and our focus is 100% on your comfort and experience.

Confidence looks like this. When the space feels right, the tattoo does too. Our private rooms make all the difference.

What Makes Us Different?

Unlike many tattoo shops in London, we don't cram artists into a shared floor just to maximise space. Our goal isn’t to create a tattoo factory — it’s to build a personalised experience where you feel safe, supported, and in control.

📍 We're based in West London (W14), and all our artists are based in individual private rooms.

It's not just a perk — it’s our standard.

No open floor, no curious eyes. Just proper privacy from the second you walk in. This is how tattooing should feel.

Final Thoughts

Don’t settle for an uncomfortable experience just because you think that’s “how it’s done.”

Whether your tattoo is deeply meaningful, intensely emotional, or simply in a place you don’t want others to see — your privacy matters.

At Hammersmith Tattoo London, we’re changing the way tattooing feels — one private room at a time.

Safe space, real conversations. Whether your tattoo is deeply personal, in a private place, or you just need quiet — we’re here for it.
