I have had many a piercing however William was the best! His patience and clarity when discussing the various options where fantastic and the fact he doesn't use clamps makes the whole experience much better. Read Less

We took our 10yo daughter to get her ears pierced by William today. He was very professional, and very good at talking to kids and keeping things casual while reassuring her (and us!). She's been dying to get her ears done for years, and I'm so pleased that she came away with a grin on her face. (Unlike my first few piercings back in the day. Less said the better about those 😏) Read Less

Benny did a very sentimental tatt for me. His patience & understanding of what I desired was fantastic. He took the time to make it perfect. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to have work done. The whole place had a friendly and comfortable atmosphere. Read Less

Benny Blackbird/Gentle Ben has done two tattoos on me in recent months, the most recent of which was an extensive script memorial for someone I loved on my lower back. Both of his tattoos are absolutely superb, exactly what I wanted. In particular I have received many compliments about the quality of the most recent one. Both healed perfectly with zero discomfort. Benny also took a great deal of time and care getting the script correct to my perfectionist standards. Thanks t...o Benny, I also have absolutely no idea why people think tattoos are painful. He has really good and calming hands that made me feel very secure throughout the whole process and seemed to know how much work to do in one go before taking a few moments break. He is truly dedicated to his craft and a brilliant artist. I also appreciated very much his sensitivity under the circumstances. See More Read Less

Absolutely love my experience every time i get a tattoo by Benny! My latest that are the most important as they are portraits of the loves of my life my beautiful, precious shepherds joe and bubs. Benny captured their heart and soul and could not get a better tribute to them unless i glued their photos to my back. Thank you Benny, you are a true artist and amazing human being!!! Read Less

Had my first tattoo today at maid and magpie! Was a great experience! Very happy with my new ink! Didn't hurt at all, time flew by quickly and straight after booked in for another appointment! Would highly recommend! �� Read Less

Strap on in because you're about to GET IT. William is the best piercer I have ever dealt with, he knows a lot about jewellery and is ridiculously patient. William will hold your hand whilst you cry because you're a huge baby (read: I'm a huge baby) and then make you laugh afterwards. Spend the few extra dollars and come here or don't get it done at all. Invest in your body and its aftercare or don't bother. 6/5 stars ��� Read Less
