Winzer has a massive following here and abroad, partly because of the many celebrities she has tattooed, including Game of Thrones actor Sophie Turner’s House Stark-themed ink.
Winzer was inundated with messages from fans when she tattooed Turner and her partner Joe Jonas at her Beaconsfield studio Hunter and Fox last year.
The tattoo was an image of direwolf with the quote: “The pack survives.”
“Fans went crazy,” she said. “They told me I’d spoiled Game of Thrones because they thought it was a spoiler about the pack surviving.”
Winzer’s other celebrity clients have included Miley Cyrus, Post Malone and Toni Collette.
Over three days, she tattooed more than 30 fans in London.
“They were mostly diehard fans,” she said. “They were super nice.”
