Since May 2022 that has been a dedicated PicoWay laser suite inside the Shoreditch studio. - 5.0 (22 Google reviews) - Fixed price until all removable ink is cleared - WhatsApp replies in minutes - PicoWay-certified technicians Our story ## Why a Tattoo Studio Started Removing Tattoos Cloak & Dagger has been tattooing on Cheshire Street since 2013. Over the years the same conversation kept happening at the counter: someone wanted a cover-up over something too dark to work with, or they wanted the piece gone entirely and did not know where to go. Sending people elsewhere meant sending them into a market we did not rate. Per-session billing with no end point. Older thermal lasers that hurt more than they needed to. Clinics turning people away because of their skin tone or the colours in their ink. So in May 2022 we built a dedicated, clinical-grade laser suite in the studio and put a fixed price on complete removal. The fixed price is the part that matters most. It moves the risk off you and onto us. If your tattoo takes fifteen sessions instead of eight, that is our problem to solve, not a bill you did not see coming. It also means nobody in this building has any reason to oversell you sessions. ![Laser technician preparing the PicoWay system in the treatment room](/images/misc/laser-technician-preparing-the-picoway-system-in-t.webp) ![The studio reception counter with warm amber signage against matte black walls](/images/misc/detail-of-the-studio-reception-counter-with-warm-a.webp) How we work ## Four Things We Will Not Compromise On ### The price does not move Quoted at your consultation, fixed from then on. No mid-course revisions, no per-session surprises. ### No judgement about the tattoo Nobody here is going to ask why, or make a joke about it. Every one of us works in a tattoo studio. ### Honesty about limits Some inks are stubborn. Some pigments barely move. We say so at the consultation, not five sessions in. ### Safety before speed Patch test first, conservative settings, proper intervals. Rushing a course is how skin gets damaged.

The staff is amazing, very professional, knowledgeable, and make me feel comfortable throughout the entire process, especially Kate. They provided me with the right information regarding the treatment, how to take care of it, how many sessions were needed. The area where this takes place is very clean and tidy and they are using the latest technology with very cool glasses that make the experience more pleasant, pain is not that bad, they apply cold air plus give you tips to minimise the discomfort. I strongly recommend this place and I think it is the best on this matter with amazing prices. ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a/ACg8ocLGjHaXmCDg2TIIERfgWUqsCKmxcUOVxkuQeNl_NRsPiuqKKQ=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo-ba2) Estrellita Maria Neira Google review > I had a massive black tribal tattoo on my shoulder and honestly never believed I could fully get rid of it. At first, I only hoped to lighten it enough for a cover-up. I spent ages searching for the right laser clinic, and I'm so glad I found Cloak & Dagger Laser. Now my skin is completely clear — people genuinely can't tell I ever had a tattoo. The communication throughout the process was excellent, and everything was explained clearly from the start. The pricing was also very competitive compared to other clinics. The results far exceeded my expectations. Without a doubt, the best laser clinic in London. ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a-/ALV-UjVkZ-qjpLxFBsP4yy7kHH7XSXC3xaozUCCul6Mt_HENc-BOV8SP1Q=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) Jan Vondrášek Google review > I have been a client of Kelly's for nearly 2 years now, she is so knowledgable and truthful about the whole laser process. We are working on a very dark, full sleeve removal and I would not want anyone else to treat me ever again. I was with a previous removal company and I was disappointed with the results. But the results with Kelly have given me complete confidence that we can remove this tattoo once and for all. She is so kind and empathetic, we have a great time in every session no matter how ouchy it is. ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/a/ACg8ocKdOiqZcDyXcZfbTRdZ-z9CsExKPGR8AeEkDuGS-ebPsQzg2A=s128-c0x00000000-cc-rp-mo) Cora Albertine Google review ![](/images/hero/moody-cinematic-interior-of-shoreditch-laser-remov.webp) Free consultation and patch test, no obligation ## You're Not Stuck With a Tattoo You Don't Like Anymore Get a free estimate, then book your consultation and patch test.
