TATTOO STUDIO
ABOUT
Life Won't Wait is a tattoo and piercing studio located in Portsmouth. In 2019, owner Joss Wilders took over the studio from My Last One, which was previously owned by the late Steve Willett.
The studio hosts resident artists who each specialise in their own styles, including oriental, dotwork, geometric, fine line, traditional, and illustrative tattooing. You can find out more about the individual artists here.
The studio is designed with a relaxed atmosphere inspired by eastern art and sacred geometry. Life Won't Wait has earned a 5* rating on Google with over 100 reviews from happy clients. You can read or leave a review here.
We pride ourselves on creating a welcoming environment where every client feels comfortable and leaves with a positive experience and a beautiful new tattoo. Every step of the process is explained thoroughly, and no question is too small. If you prefer more privacy while getting your tattoo, the studio has a smaller private tattoo room available. The artists here are more than happy to answer any questions you may have before, during, or after your tattoo.
The talented artists who work from our studio are self-employed professionals managing their own schedules and clients. We are proud to support their work and provide a welcoming space for their artistry.
