2012 TATTOO COMPANY REVIEWS

2012 is a really great tattoo shop. Our tattoo artist Marc was excellent at what he does. His work is amazing and he is a really nice person, who makes you feel very comfortable and happy with the designs of the tattoos. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting to get a tattoo. Reasonable prices and really great service.

The team at 2012 are awesome! My dad, George had his 1st ever tattoo done yesterday at the age of 83! Lenny did a fantastic job both with the tattoo and looking after him.! Lenny offered to pierce his nipples next time, but I'm not sure if that will EVER happen! Thanks to Abbey as well!

I highly recommend 2012 to anyone looking for a tattoo they do a wonderful job on the design I picked for my tattoo of a Pokemon I will be going back to get more tattoos from them thanks to Sam who did a great job on my Pokemon tattoo today.

DIABOLIK TATTOO & PIERCING REVIEWS

Saw Matt after trying to replace my cartilage piercing that fell out. I’ve never had to replace itself and was making a big mess out of it. He very kindly and quickly changed it without charge. It had taken a long time for the piercing to settle so was quite nervous. A little thing for a place where people get big tattoos, but such lovely service. X.

I’ve had my septum and industrial done here and both times I was treated great. Friendly piercer, it barely hurt and both piercings healed up well. I plan on going back for more in the future.

Donald is A very talented artist . Great music talk and the room had an awesome vibe about it. My dragon ball z ink is on point . Cheers legend I'll be back for more.
