Came to FTS to have two half sleeves done by Marie. She went above and beyond with the designs, making sure to talk me through my ideas and helping to perfect them into artwork that worked seamlessly altogether. Marie stayed an hour + over time to make sure to complete both tattoos in the single day sitting, which I cannot express how appreciative I am! Marie also went to the effort of making sure that when doing the second design, it was going to be complimentary to the first tattoo and parallel it in some aspects, then took extra time and care to make sure things were edited once the transfer was on my arm to make sure for the perfect fit. The studio vibe is incredibly friendly and relaxed. It was a pleasure spending two full days with Marie and Monique! The shop has an awesome, eclectic style and there's always good music on and an endless supply of hot drinks. It's also located right in the town centre, so it's incredibly convenient to reach and go get food to fuel you up. Marie made sure each time that I was sat comfortably and had rest breaks when needed, which was greatly appreciated as a chronic pain sufferer. The whole experience was miraculously relaxed and easy going! The first tattoo is already healed and is as crisp in detail and vibrant as the day I got it- which Marie proved when she took before and after photos to put side by side! As somebody who suffers from keloid scarring and has a previous loss of ink at a different studio, I was anxious about the results or needing touch ups- which is definitely not the case with Marie's work! She's packed plenty of detail in without overdoing it and my skin has healed up beautifully. No ink has been lost and there's absolutely no scarring - coming from someone with keloid scar tissue, it's something of a miracle! I believe this is down to Marie's thorough explanation and suggestion of the wet healing process she encouraged me to use that she applies to her own tattoos. It's clearly done the trick and the after care of soothing and wrapping up the tattoo when it was fresh also seemed to calm my tattoos down a lot quicker. The entire healing process took about 20 days for the first tattoo, without any itching or problems. The tattoo wash, oil and instructions card Marie left me with were incredibly clear and easy to follow and I really do think that made the world of difference with the quality of healing. It's very clear that Marie is excited for every project she takes on and that she wants to provide the best long term results, that she wants to be proud of her work in future. I've already got a third tattoo in mind that I'd like for Marie to do someday. I highly recommend FTS and Marie's work! Everything about my new ink and the experience was beyond perfect. Five stars doesn't do FTS justice! Highly recommend and worth every penny for an unforgettable experience and tattoos that are a work of art! Read Less

Folklore! Where to begin? How to start? I started using this fine establishment 2 years ago. Having 1 piece either designed and done by Marie or having an old piece finished. These guys and gal! have bags of talent and the service they provide up until you have the tattoo is faultless. Going into a tattoo shop for the 1st time can be a daunting prospect but Marie and team make you feel welcome as soon as the handle turns. That's half the battle won! If your looking for a new bit of "INK" hit these up. You won't not regret it. There the best this town has to offer and im sure there part of the best the UK has to offer! Read Less

Very professional and excellent work by Marie and Adam. Marie kindly designed me a beautiful water lotus piece recently and my new ink is perfect! Healed beautifully and Marie knows her stuff when it comes to aftercare. Would highly recommend Folklore and look forward to every visit! Both artists have had their work featured in numerous magazines and rightly so! Even if you are unsure what to have done next then I would advise you to pop in for a chat and I'm sure you will come out with a very unique piece of new ink! ;) xRead Less

I had my tattoo done by Marie at Tattoo Freeze. She was brilliant; she designed me a beautiful custom piece. As we wouldn't see each other until the day, Marie kept in contact with me to ensure it was exactly how I wanted it. On the day, I was made to feel comfortable and at ease. The service was professional and friendly, I was given great aftercare information. And most importantly my tattoo is AMAZING! On another note, cost does not matter when it comes to getting your ink as you pay for quality; I found the pricing from Folklore Tattoo Studio very fair - especially for the high quality art you get in return! I would definitely have more done here :)Read Less
