One Direction heartthrob Harry Styles is known for his collection of tattoos and Maximum Pop recently sat down for a chat with tattoo artist to the stars, Kevin Paul, to talk about working on the young sensation's skin.

When asked what it was like to meet the 'Story Of My Life' hitmaker, Paul confessed that he was very 'grounded' and 'humble': "It was a pleasure to meet Harry. He is a wonderful young lad and so grounded and down to earth. I’ve worked with a lot of people and I find it’s the ones that haven’t had much success that are usually very hard to get on with, and it was refreshing that someone as big as Harry was so humble."

He was also quizzed on how Styles handled getting inked and he laughed: "No, he didn’t cry he took the tattoo well! And no strange requests, either!"

Paul then added that people like Harry Styles and Ed Sheeran are setting trends with their body art and are definitely encouraging and inspiring other young people to go under the needle: "I think it’s people like David Beckham that kick started the whole tattoo vibe and people like Ed and Harry are obviously a big influence on people growing up."
