I had never had a tattoo before so I was very sceptical, but my first one didn't hurt, and although I was overcharged £20.00 'accidently' by their 'apprentice' ( I got the £20.00 back ) I decided to have a second tattoo on the other arm, my appointment was for 1.00pm, at 1.35pm the tattooist hadn't returned from 'shopping', when I complained about the wait the owner did not look pleased. Shortly after this the tattooist did return, and having a fag break he started my tattoo. I was quite surprised that this one was much more painful than the first but I put it down to my imagination 'until' after a few days I realised that my second tattoo had been done in BOLD INK, this was not what I had asked for. As far as I'm concerned the boss told the tattooist to give me a 'different' tattoo because I complained. I am not a happy bunny!!!! Read Less

Worth mentioning that it has a very warm and welcoming environment which I've found tattoo studios don't seem to have - Would definitely recommend! Read Less

These guys... wow! I'm not into leaving Facebook reviews but these guys are next level incredible! Last week I had 7 hours work on my arm and they exceeded my expectations massively.... I'd heard and seen big things online about them online so went in for a look. When I first went down to book in I was blow away with how slick, cool and modern the whole set up. I was met by Craig on the front desk who's every bit professional - he's so clued up and the aftercare has been second to none - This guy could probably sell me a chocolate teapot. Then there's Kyle who did my ink - please check out his work as this guy is ridiculous. The 7 hours flew by and you won't meet a more talented and humble guy in the industry. Can't speak highly enough of him. I saw a steady stream on people getting inked up by Emma too who's stuff looks incredible - again young, cool and instantly likeable. This isn't your average tattooist - this sleek modern place totally brings tattoo parlours smack bang into the 21st century. Without question will be returning again soon. See More Read Less

Welcoming and friendly staff, clean and bright atmosphere. My mum and I went in as walk in appointments, talked through our design ideas and both got our tattoos the same day. I then booked an appointment for a sugar skull for the following week. My tattoos and my mum's have healed really well and look amazing! Couldn't be happier with my sugar skull! Would definitely recommend and would definitely go back. Read Less
