North side is a brilliant place for first time tattoo customers! The staff are very professional and produce incredible art. They are great at putting people at ease and the communication I received regarding my designs was ideal! I would recommend it to anyone! Read Less

Northside has some of the best tattoo artists in the northeast if not the world. I've had the pleasure of getting tattooed by hash for many year now. Alway professional and has some great ideas even turning my doodles into works of art. Nice relax atmosphere with some nice pieces of art on the walls to look at. Great back selection of music when getting inked. Would recommend to anyoneRead Less

Been going to Northside in Whitley Bay and more recently in Newcastle since I was 18. All of the artists work to an exceptionally high standard. I would personally recommend Kayley Henderson as she did my Audrey Hepburn tattoo and has done an amazing job. I went to other shops and they wanted to do the typical images 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' etc. Kayley worked with what I wanted and has given me a beautiful piece which is my pride and joy. I would also just like to say that t...he staff at Northside are all phenomenal. They care. They work hard and they will always ensure that you leave with something they and you can be proud of. I've had one tattoo done elsewhere because I was inpatient and instantly regretted it. If you want excellent quality then you get what you pay for and for me that means going to a reputable studio with high quality artists. That is Northside!! � See more Read Less

Had my first session with Gari for a 4 portrait sleeve of my daughters, and all I can say is this guy has an awesome talent. My tattoo looks more real then the photo he is really that good. Looking forward to my next sitting now and getting it finished then planning something for the other arm he can do. Read Less

I had my very First Tattoo here yesterday done by Kayley, and I was VERY happy and felt completely at ease all the way through it! I have waited a long time to get it done with certain set backs happening, but I was very happy with the final result and with how flexible Kayley was with the whole situation. All in all, now I have a great tattoo and had a fantastic experience! � Thank you very much indeed! Read Less

Loved every minute of the 7 hrs I sat , everyone made me feel really welcome and the work gari Henderson done on me was outstanding . I couldn't be more happy so far got another 7 hrs to do to complete I can wait Read Less

Had my tattoo yesterday with kayley, was chuffed to only wait a few months for my day booking as I know she is very sought after! Throughout these months kayley was constantly in touch sending over references and swapping ideas. The night before my tattoo I was sent the final images with a detailed description of how the focus points and selected flowers would compliment the overall tattoo. Words cannot describe how incredibly happy I am with the finished result. Truly incredible. Such a talented and professional artist. Will definitely be back for more work and can't recommend kayley and the studio enough!! Read Less

Had my first tattoo done by their guest artist Jenna really loved how it turned out, Jenna helped settle my nerves plus all the artists helped when i had a hiccup at the start. So many friendly and talented artists there and they made me feel so welcome was easy to chat with my artist and the receptionist ( Think it was Charlotte) while getting my tattoo. I will be coming back for more tattoos after mine has healed. Defiantly recommend going here for tattoos! Read Less

I wanted a tattoo sleeve in the memory of my mother who had passed away 16 years ago. Alan Lowther (Low) listened carefully about the woman she was and created a beautiful piece of work. Words can't describe how happy i am with the work and its been nearly 2 years since having it finished!! Overall i loved every visit and the artists made you feel really welcome and great banter. Only place to go in my opinion! Read Less

Well, I've had two tattoos by Kayley Henderson - the first was her take on Flame princess from Adventure Time and then a leg piece that I asked her to design made up of characters that I love (I gave Kayley a bunch of ideas and she created a piece that is so much better than I could have imagined) and I'm currently getting a brilliant filigree tattoo by Wayne Hutchinson. I have quite a few tattoos by different artists in various parts of the country and I can honestly say tha...t I never met a nicer or more talented bunch of people in one studio. You're made to feel welcome as soon as you arrive by Charlotte and Oana and the artists are more than happy to discuss ideas to create something that you're happy with. What I like most is how much you can chat and get on with everyone there while the work is being done. I'll recommend Northside to anyone, I love my tattoos and I'm already planning on going back for more work by Kayley and Wayne. Great place and brilliant people, highly recommended. See more Read Less
