"Would definitely recommend Fred for piercings."
"He did it so detailed and was so professional."
Cons:
"The guy on reception just laughed and handed me a consent form which immediately made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome."
"Overall I wouldn't go back based on the rudeness, price and atmosphere."
"The professional did not know how to advise me on how to treat a bump on the septum."
"He disrespected her, pierced in the wrong place, took 10 minutes to put a piercing in which was obviously painful."
"The tattoo artist didn't fully listen to what I wanted and her first reaction to the example picture I showed her was 'Nooooo, I don't like it'."
"So called artist wasted my time for a month after I sent multiple images and explained the design I wanted for my tattoo."
"The designs looked like he hadn't spent very long drawing them and he didn't take into consideration the style I had wanted."

"The studio has a very nice atmosphere and all the staff are super friendly."
Cons:
"It was an odd atmosphere."
"I felt quite on edge as he didn't really talk through what he wanted me to do."
"The man who did it was very cold, almost didn't say a word and not reassuring at all."
"The piercer he is bloody intimidating."
"Despite constant saline cleaning and careful aftercare, keloids took over my cosmic adventure."
"There is no private room - just a curtain in the waiting area which was awful as everyone could hear me."
"The guy was sooo unprofessional."
Piercing & Tattoo Quality
Pros:
"I got a double helix done and was surprised that the initial bite of the needles had a minimal effect on my ear."
"Robin is very talented and patient - she created a beautiful design for me based on my vague suggestion and the result is more than I could have dreamed up!"
"As an artist, Yuki truly strives to better herself with the next passing tattoo, this is a reassuring trait to see in your artist as she is able to naturally project just how committed, dedicated and personally excited she is in seeing her work come to life."
"Yuki was so personally invested to finishing my tattoo, she extended the closing time of the studio and stayed behind (in her own hours) to finish off the work – A huge favour and massive timesaver for me."
"The person that did my tattoo (Yuki) is not only charming, but also knows what she's doing."
"Very happy with the blue ringed octopus that Sabina did on my shoulder."
"Both tattoos have healed beautifully."
Cons:
"After 9 months of cleaning and looking after it, I'm told that the piercing is in the wrong location and that its severely infected."
"Avoid avoid avoid !!!!!!🚩"
"The sanitation of the piercing area was almost nonexistent and it was a rough and rushed procedure."
"I just had it extracted by a maxillofacial surgeon, who stated that the angles of the piercing were done such that the wound could never heal and would constantly get infected."
"Fast forward 10 months later, the piercings did not heal properly."
"Pierced with an extremely small gauge for my daith last year and it took a long time (1+ year) to heal."
"The piercer although friendly, pierced painfully and clumsily, did not give any comprehensive advice on the jewellery to put in, and put in a ring which was too small for my nose and that he couldn’t actually close."
Customer Service
Pros:
"The piercer made me feel very relaxed and confident and I absolutely love my new piercing."
"The guy who did it was kind and talked me through both piercings."
"Both the lady on the front desk and man who pierced me were very welcoming and chatty!"
"The receptionist was really lovely and helpful - and very knowledgeable about after-care."
"I just had my first ever ear piercing, after a traumatic childhood piercing gone wrong. And I was put at ease, both by the people and the vibe in the shop."
"The staff were really friendly and answered all my questions without making me feel like i was a bother."
"The whole staff was incredibly warm and helpful - we walked in with no appointment and they were quick to make us feel welcome."
Cons:
"I didn't get a simple gesture of 'hope you are happy' etc."
"I just felt like they didn't want me to come back... So I won't."
"My only problem was that the piercer is quite intimidating and not very friendly."
"Had the usual tattoo studio issue of running way behind schedule."
"Honestly this really needs to be given because they’re so bad - like so bad so if you don’t want issues like this I’d suggest no one to go here."
"I would not recommend this place - I'm willing to go much further away to avoid it now."
"Friendly staff, but I've turned up a couple of times, following the opening times stated here and they've been shut on both occasions."
