TRUE LOVE TATTOO REVIEWS

I've been to True Love Tattoo many times because I got two full sleeves and two other tattoos one on my chest and one on my leg and I'm booked in for another tattoo soon. I got all of these from Paul Fenwick who is an amazing artist, great and very funny crack and very comforting during the painful parts. I can't recommend him or Sarah enough if you want a great experience getting great tattoos.

Excellent Tattoos, followed their work for years on social media before deciding to get any work done. Paul is a very, patient and friendly guy and his work is exceptional. Highly recommended for 1st time tattoos, cover-ups and repeated addictions.

I go to Sarah for laser treatment to remove old ink and I’ve been for piercings aswell…Sarah is confident and capable and professional in all aspects of her work.Her studio is immaculately clean.I’d highly recommend her to anyone.

MISCHIEF TATTOO STUDIO REVIEWS

I had a great experience at the studio. From start to finish, everyone was really welcoming and friendly, creating a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. The cleanliness and attention to care were excellent, which gave me complete confidence throughout. Sawyer did an amazing job and made me feel at ease the whole time. The work itself is incredible, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and I’ll definitely be returning for future tattoos. Highly recommend.

Have come here multiple times and every time it has been an amazing experience. From contacting the artists and going through the process of finding the right design and what suits you best you can’t ask for more. So helpful assisting you with your design. I have been getting tattooed by Sawyer he makes the whole experience comfortable and enjoyable and really does put 100% into everything he does. If it’s your first tattoo I really do think Mischief is the best place to go because you really won’t get a better experience anywhere else and if you just wanting to add to what you have the artists work speak for themselves.

My first visit to Mischief and I was really impressed. The team were welcoming, the studio has a relaxed vibe, and I felt comfortable throughout. Pete is fantastic - his work is excellent, he’s super easy to chat with, and he always checks in to make sure you’re at ease. Excited to continue my Star Wars sleeve with him.
