• ID and price?

  i want a tattoo on my wrist which would be three words, it's something that means something to me personally. i want it about average size, so not too big, not too small. I also want another tattoo of 6 or 7 words on my left side, with a design around it, i want it fairly small, but not so small that it's unreadable. would anyone possibly know how much each of these would cost? as i'd like to know soon as i'd like to make sure i would ave enough. also is there any age you need to be to get a tattoo at the shop, as i'm not sure. i've had mates go and get peircings there before, and some are planning to get tattos underage but i'm not sure if it'd work or not??

• Piercing/ Tattoo's

  I had my tongue pierced there when I was 15. Was fine no problems at all. Had a tattoo on the side of my hand a couple of years ago which they ruined it looks like a dodgy bodge job that I've had to have re done!

  I went here to get my nose pierced & it was brilliant :) Job done in 5 minutes, & only costs £5. Everything is clean and the guys are really friendly and chatty, my nose was great after. Also had my tongue pierced here, I'm 14, they have you sign a sheet that say's you are 14 or over, and then pierce it! Only £20 for tongue piercing, didn't get infected, again really quick and they gave all sorts of information of how to clean and what to do in certain situations. I recommend it :)

  Okay. I live like 5 minites away from under the skin. So I am a refular customer. Basically if your looking for a tattoo. This is not the place to go. They have very basic tattoos and if you take your own in they are a bit iffy about doing it. Also some of their prices are ridiculous. However pericing wise, mm its okay, I have been to better places. The back studio reminds me of something out of saw, it is very plain with just a dentist chair, usually a lovely irish guy does the pericings. Tattoos will usually be done by gordon and dave who are so nice. They are very good friends with my parents. But on a hole I would recommend going to somewhere like camberley or guilford. Also for those who are worried about the drug dealer. Yes there was a dealer there at one point but tbh he did the best tattoos and peircings and he was so funny. But yeah thats about it:)

  well ive had many tattoos and many peircings, and i wouldnt go back here personally, its not terrible, its clean and there ok guys, but there are definatly better artists out there within easy reach. i had 2 of my peircings done here. two got infected, even though i am very clean, and caring of both my tattoos and peircings. i had my tongue and ear done on the same day one after the other here, and they both got infected. i have a total of 35 peircings and the rest of them i never had infection with. it may have just been bad coinsidence, and i dont hold a grudge but its still not ideal. atall. one guy that was there was rumourd to deal cannabis in the shop, that was a while ago now but he isnt there anymore, he is also called dave, but is not the main guy who is the owner also called dave. there was also a guy there with blondeish dreadlocks, when my friend went to get her nipple peirced, he was far from appropriate, i was with her when she got it done, and yes she is a very attractive, girl but she is also in a long turm relationship and she is very shy herself. he was a right slimball. but i havent seen him there since and that was 2006. it is ok but i would say stick to dave or gordon, and no1 else, but i think you can definatly do better than here without question. also there are alot of people on here that are asking if they can get tattoos done before 18, for one its 18 legally for a reason, and for another thing, dont get a tattoo because you think its cool, you really will hate it later. seriously. do some growing up first.
