I have had tattoo's done before, this was my first time using Sabian, Clive and his team designed the tattoo brilliantly from the very vague drawing I gave them. The tattoo it self went perfectly and I am very pleased with the result will be back for more, my 70 year old father in law was so impressed with my tattoo he had his first ever tattoo done by Sabian.

I got a tattoo at Sabian tattoos by the owner Clive Spalding. All I asked for was a very simple tattoo on my right arm once he started to tattoo me without doing any paperwork beforehand or any paperwork of after-care . He seemed to be very rough I bled a lot more than I have with any of my other tattoo. When he had finished,my arm was weeping and i was in a lot of pain but I left and said thank you, as I am not a rude person. That night I was in extreme pain and the next day I looked Clearly at my tattoo and it was completely WONKY AND UNEVEN also a ALOT BIGGER than I asked for. I decided to go back to the studio to complain and they were no help to me and said there was nothing wrong with it.TAKE A LOOK AT THE PHOTOS. I asked to see their liability insurance they could not provide this to me. I ended up having to go to A&E and was put on very strong antibiotics! I was told he may have gone to deep or didn't use proper sterilised equipment and that was what was causing the infection after that I got a abscess under the tattoo. I am left with a horrific tattoo and scarring. Even now with it covered the scars still show through. I now have a case against Clive Spalding. The case is ongoing. I strongly advise anyone thinking of getting a tattoo do not use the studio or get a tattoo done by CLIVE SPALDING he may be very cheap but my personal opinion is that they are very unprofessional and a very unhygienic studio. Due to their very lack of cooperation with this matter I have no other option but to leave a very bad review. I am very disappointed not only with my horrific tattoo but the complete rudeness and lack of customer service. All I am asking for is compensation to cover the costs of what it cost me to cover up. I believe this is only fair as I am left scarred for life with a completely UNEVEN and WONKY tattoo! Read Less

Mohsin Sharif whoever he is has never had a tattoo from us. and we are at present looking into legal action against him in regards to this blatant attempt to damage our business Scott Mather , your scare was raised before you where tattooed , you knew full well the shape of it would not change from having a tattoo over it , you did not go to A & E , you went to the walkin centre the next day because you'd made your fresh tattoo so sore from the work out you had at the gym less than 9 hours after it was done ... This doesn't demonstrate any duty of aftercare from yourself does it ? . The N H S does not pass comments regarding how deep your ink is , common practice when someone is complaining of a sore ingery to the skin is to proscribe flucoxacillin , this drug prevents and treats surface skin infection , if you did indeed have an infection it would most likely be caused by you own hygiene not ours .... Thank you for your review it will be most helpful in proving what you have written is fabrication based on opinion and not on clinical fact and is therefore libalous ... We will be persueing a libel case against you in due coarse .. Read Less
