Excellent team for all your body modification needs. Great for ideas and advice whenever you pop in. Mike's designs are brilliant and his execution and line work are second to none.

Got my 3rd set of lobe piercing plus an industrial today. Friendly and clean place, made me feel at ease and answered all my questions and provided clear aftercare instructions. Was given a few options of jewellery to chose from too. Plus was good value. Highly recommend. Read Less

This was my second visit to Inkspiration, my tattoo had been started by a previous member of staff, however since he had left to work else where I agreed to let another artist work on my arm. Staff are friendly and the place seems well enough run apart from communication by email being a bit tedious to begin with. The studio is clean & tidy and has a relaxed atmosphere.
To cut a long story short There are parts of the tattoo that I feel have not been carried out to the standard I expected based on my first visit. Having studied at Grays myself I know that hands are probably the hardest thing to draw & get right, unfortunately the hands on my tattoo just aren't right at all and look mishapen.
I returned once the tattoo had time to heal to speak over my concerns and what I was displeased with, however this wasn't a great idea as all I did was make things awkward by saying I wasn't happy. I knew it was a case of like it or lump it when he said "Well I'm happy with it" he did offer to add more detail to it but knowing I had annoyed him I no longer felt comfortable with him working on the tattoo anymore. if he couldn't see what was wrong with it I decided to leave it there & not push things further. Since then I've visited 4 other tattoo studios to get opinions & they have all agreed that the tattoo isn't great & unfortunatly can't be fixed without laser removal to lighten to a stage where it can be reworked. Extremely frustrating as it's likely to cost me over £1,500 by the time I get laser treatment & reworked not to mention weeks of healing between sessions. With a tattoo it's on you for life and it will drive you mad if it's not exactly as you imagined it. So although not the end of the world it will take a lot of money & healing before I'll get it looking as I intended it to look first time around. Read Less

Fantastic friendly and helpful staff awsome art work and great prices attention to detail is phenomenal definitely be back.That was myself getting a black Rose on my foot and ribbon and ; on my arm and my daughter in laws, is flawless bambi and thumper as a connection with her granda who's health bad and he had a chance to see it loved it. Thanks to all as it's team work and great communication between the working group that makes for a successful business, a hidden gem. Cheers to all that looked after us that day and rest assured we will be back. 😊👌🖒👏 Read Less
