Came here for my first tattoo over a year ago, beyond happy with the outcome, tattoos come out perfectly, staff were friendly and the studio was very clean.

Where to start. I've been to a few tattoo shops before Evolution. But I know from now on I won't be going anywhere else. I was fortunate to get a quick appointment slot with them for a full day. I'm currently a sleeve in progress with Leigh doing my work. We got a lot done in the time set aside and we had a great laugh throughout the day. The work carried out by all the team there is amazing. Watch Paul doing some work on a sleeve and the other guys work on multiple pieces throughout the day. All exceptional in my opinion. To top it off, a craft beer at the end of the day with the sun out. What more can you ask for. Thanks guys. Il be back soon Read Less

In response to Kjc Crawford firstly I am not a tattoo artist and I am not a "hater" I used to be a paying customer with evolution tattoo so how would that even be possible. Secondly in regards to being anonymous I have done this for legal reasons but I will say I have actually contacted Paul humphreys directly myself and gave my full name he knows exactly who I am and has done nothing to put right my issues I have had with this tattoo studio in fact all Paul has done is completely ignore my problems. hense why I have left such negative ratings. No dis respect to any other customer that has had good experiences here but it doesn't exactly look very good the best this tattoo studio can do when a former paying customer has a problem is get another one of their customers to defend them as a tattoo studio against me (also a former customer) on an online Google review think about it. Thirdly the tattoo artist Dan Mathews that I got the majority of my tattoo's done by doesn't even work at evolution anymore he has just completely disappeared and left which says it all. I have no intention of going out of my way to ruin a business but at the end of the day this studio ripped me off thousands of pounds and they shouldn't of done everything they did to me as a paying customer. No matter how nice this studio may look from the 'outside' or how well Paul and Dan can tattoo that is no excuse to mess me about as a customer like they did. I was getting a whole tattoo sleeve done here by Dan and Paul and I would pay money for a tattoo per session where me as the customer and the artist agreed the tattoo would be finished in one session each time and every time they would never finish my tattoos they would always be half finished and whilst I was being tattooed they would stop tattooing me and constantly walk off talking to other staff members and constantly had 20 minute cigarette breaks That would waste my time and money and they would take it out of the hours I had paid them for. At this point I was relatively new to tattoo culture and I thought this was pretty normal and it happend to everyone which I now know i was being messed about and it shouldn't of happend to me. Obviously I have never gone back to this studio I have had to go else where to get my tattoos done which I can't say where for legal reasons but it was the best choice I ever made This is why I am writing these negative reviews to let people know the experience I have had with evolution tattoo Ltd I would strongly advise others to get a tattoo done else where at different tattoo studios in Oxfordshire instead where this doesn't happen and i warn others to stay clear so all of this doesn't happen to anyone else. By the way this is now the second time this tattoo studio have deleted this review Which I have photo proof they have deleted it and are trying to hide the wrongs they have done to me. Evolution please stop deleting this post my issues will not go away by just ignoring them or hiding them as I will just keep re posting my review as many times as I have to so other people can avoid all of this.

Had my first (small) tattoo done here the other week and would highly recommend. My artist Adam covered exactly what to expect when I walked in, talked over the design (which changed a few days before and was happily accommodated) and actually did the deed which really helped to put at ease someone going at this for the first time. Still got a bit of healing to do but love the work and once I've picked the next design I shall be coming back for round two. Read Less

Evolution tattoo kidlington . One of the most highly professional tattoo studios around . After reading the comments below by some unprofessional tattoo artist whom have to remain anonymous is very sad to try and sabotage someone else's business . I personally have had some fantastic creative tattoos by Paul . All work undertaken by Paul and his team are completely compliant via health and safety . It is a sterile environment with in the tattoo studio which is totally separate from all other business in the building . If you are looking to have bespoke work done evolution tattoo it is the place to go . Paul has a waiting list for customers to have tattoos . I waited to have mine done and there is a reason for this he is very good at what he does . People wait for professionals. Well done evolution keep up the fantastic work . Don't worry about the haters .Other professional tattoo artist will always compliment others work . Read Less
