ARTISTIC INK TATTOO STUDIO REVIEWS

Got my wife her first tattoo a few months ago as an early birthday present. Today's her birthday, so review time. The tattoo came out better then expected. They allowed us to make payments and finished the tattoo in a timely manner. They were always friendly, which I love. My wife is already talking about getting a 2nd one and we're definitely going to return. I would definitely recommend going to these guys!

Over the moon with my new tatt. Mick did an awesome cover up for me. He really listens to what you want. Mick and Karen are lovely aswell.

Lovely studio and lovely people, cannot recommend it enough. Great experience every time.
