Life Won't Wait Tattoo Studio

Life Won't Wait Tattoo Studio is a tattoo and piercing studio in Portsmouth, taking over from the previous studio My Last One in 2019 under owner Joss Wilders. The studio hosts a team of resident, self-employed artists who each specialise in their own styles, including oriental, dotwork, geometric, fine line, traditional, and illustrative tattooing. Clients can book directly through individual artists or arrange appointments by email or in person at the studio.

The space is designed with a relaxed atmosphere inspired by eastern art and sacred geometry, aiming to make every client feel comfortable throughout the process. Every step of a tattoo is explained thoroughly, and questions are welcomed before, during, and after the session. Alongside tattooing, the studio also offers piercing services and hosts yoga. It is open Tuesday to Saturday, with artists working part-time schedules, and operates on a cash-only basis for payments. The studio supports its artists as independent professionals while providing a shared, welcoming space for their work.
