My tattoo
My experience couldn't have been better - Nicola made sure I was comfortable as soon as I walked through the door, she double checked I was sure what design I wanted and the size I wanted it to be, ran me through each stage of the tattoo and was really friendly throughout, my new tattoo looks exactly like I hoped it would and can't wait to book the next one!

Another great experience!
Lost count of the tattoos Nicola has done for me and wouldn’t go anywhere else. Always welcomes my randomness and does an amazing job. Very chilled, friendly atmosphere in the shop. I’ll be back again soon and would 100% recommend to everyone.

Tattoo
Had this done yesterday at Martial Art Ink
Communication was incredible from start to finish (poor lass was on holiday when I started sending her things)
Very reasonable prices
The sitting yesterday was class was just a few hours of chatting sh*te and listening to sterophonics (you can changed the music if it’s not to your taste) while Nicola worked her magic 🥰

Piercing experience is fantastic
I had my ears pierced here and it was great! I have a fear of needles and Nicola was so calm and patient about it. She checked I was okay the whole way through the process and explained what each step was. It was really comforting to see the equipment laid out and to see it being put into the sanitising machine. Would highly recommend and I’m considering more piercings in the future because this was such a positive experience. Get booked in with Nicola!
