I’ve been to Tribal a few times over the years for piercings by Sarah and yesterday was back for a tattoo of one of Matt’s own pieces .. couldn’t be happier! The shop itself is immaculate, all the staff are relaxed and friendly and make you feel at ease. All equipment/rooms are absolutely spotless. Matt did a beautiful job of my tattoo, he had me laughing all the way through the 2.5hrs! Exceptionally talented and makes you feel at ease immediately. Will definitely be back thank you so much to Matt and the team, couldnt ask for more xxx Read Less

Had 4 tattoos done by Matt and a range of piercings by both Sarah and Jared. Everyone in the shop is very friendly and professional and the work done by each of them is amazing. Highly recommend Matt to anyone and he’s great at putting first timers at ease. Back in for one of Matts own pieces next week, can’t wait! Read Less

Had my first tattoo done here last month, went with my sister as it is something we have always wanted to do together. Couldn’t have been treated better and was really impressed that despite our tattoos being ‘dainty’ we were treated with as much care and professionalism as if it was a huge piece of work. I’ve also had piercings done here and received super professional and friendly service. It’s really an amazing team at tribalRead Less

The staff are amazing in this tattoo & body piercing studio, they’re reliable and always make sure you’re sure about your decisions and help you make the best choice for your unique self. My best friend has had 2 tattoos done here (by Max) one on her foot and one on her thigh. She adores both tattoos and they mean a lot to her. Max is very easy going and a highly talented tatoo artist. There a very talented tattooist, especially Max. The piercing staff are clean and clinical and ask you to take deep breaths before doing the piercing, to help put you at ease. Would thoroughly recommend this place anyone who wants professional tattoos and piercings. My best friend has had two piercings - daith and tragus done here.

This was my second visit to Tribal Body Art to have a tattoo done by Maxwell Hewatt. He was recommended by my girlfriend and I'm very happy with his work so far. He's funny, engaging, does fantastic work and makes you feel at ease. Maxwell fully involved me in my tattoo design and came up with some awesome drawings. There was no pressure on me to agree with all his ideas although his designs were exactly what I had in mind. Read Less
