Went to get a portrait tattoo of my son and it came out absolutely shocking, it was more like a cartoon character of him and nothing like the picture I gave them. Now I have to go somewhere else to see if they can sort it out. Read Less

Top Inker, The best work I have seen in ages, my repeat visits for more work by the Team at Etch should be enough to convince anyone. Freehand ,custom, off the book, all tastes catered for. Great atmosphere nearly always fully booked. If you are unsure of the quality check out the facebook page and have a look. Only one other person I would use for ink, and he is 4000 miles away. Do not be put off by the old review posted here ages ago. Visit the studio and have a chat with the team. Read Less

Awesome session with Mike at Etch Body Art. My first session of tattoos and he made alot easier to do. Laughs, jokes and plenty of burning sensations as i didnt take on something small but had both childrens names emblazened across both forearms. Needless to say Mike done a fantastic job and im so glad he was able to take my design and transfer it to arm with only a picture take my phone to his phone. I hope to return to etch body art in the future as we were only there a few days on holiday for my 40th. Thanks Mike. Pictures have been messaged to you!!!! Read Less

I had a simple tattoo here of a greek style sun - nothing complicated and just black ink. Also, it was surrounding an existing tattoo, again very simple,of the Greek Gemini symbol in black. Despite the simplicity of the design, I had to revisit the shop once I had healed because the quality was SHOCKING. The colour was uneven, the tattooist had repeatedly inked out of the lines, the edges were uneven and the original Gemini symbol had been massacred! When I pointed this out, the tattooist was in agreement and 'repaired' the poor work for free. However, the tattoo remains a complete mess. Instead of going back and having a bodge job again, I've booked myself into a studio where I've had excellent work done previously. They are going to revamp it for me, as to quote my trusted tattooist "it's a very rough job isn't it!?". It will cost me £70 to repair and will take one hour and a half - this should give you an impression of just how bad this tattoo is considering the original one took less than an hour and half that price. My advice? Avoid this place - tattoos are such an intimate, lifestyle choice so DO NOT go here and regret it. Go to a reputable studio and leave with a perfect job. If this review makes you think twice then I've not wasted my time. Read Less
