About me
Welcome to Tough Cookie Tattoos! A cosy, inclusive space nestled in The Treatment Rooms, Crumlin, offering soft but strong tattoo work inspired by nature, storytelling, and Welsh folklore. I’m Poppy, your artist and pal - a former tattoo artist returning to the craft with a whole lot of heart.
I LOVE working in neo-traditional, botanical, folky, and vintage-inspired styles (think celestial details, earthy florals, and animals) That said, I’m always open to a wide range of ideas and happy to collaborate on designs that reflect your vision.
I’m also working toward offering mastectomy tattoos and scar coverups, with a passion for helping people reclaim their bodies through beautiful artwork. Whether it’s delicate florals to frame your chest, or something symbolic and personal, I’d be honoured to work with you to create something empowering and healing.
This is a safe space, open to all bodies and backgrounds. You deserve to feel safe and celebrated while getting something beautiful etched into your skin. ✨
🖤 Custom work + flash
🖤 Private studio
🖤 Friendly, trauma-aware, and endo-warrior owned
🖤 Vegan inks + cruelty-free setup
Thank you so much for reading! I can’t wait to create something beautiful with you! 💫

I’m not currently taking on new bookings while I catch up and make some magic with my lovely existing clients. I’ll let you know when I’m ready for more tough cookies 🐆🌸 - thanks for being here.
Hello my lovelies!
! HOT WEATHER ALERT: If you have booked, or are thinking of doing so - please be careful in the sun! I cannot and will not tattoo sunburnt skin. Don't forget your factor 50 before and after your tattoo (even if it's healed!) !
Thanks so much for your interest in booking with me - I’m so excited to be back! ✨
I’m now working from a brand new private studio, so please bear with me while I settle in.
Before enquiring, please take a moment to read through the FAQs on here - they cover everything from pricing to aftercare and accessibility. It helps make the process smoother for both of us!✨ I’ve also created a detailed client guide called Tough Cookie Tattoo Truths, packed with general tattoo info, healing expectations, and honest advice. It’s designed to support you and save me a lot of mental energy by answering common questions up front — thank you so much for reading it before enquiring! Find it here -> https://shorturl.at/GWwXs
