STUDIO XIII GALLERY REVIEWS

Had an absolutely beautiful tattoo done by the lovely Courtenay! Stunning design, incredibly professional and a wonderful environment! Absolutely obsessed with how it turned out! Also had a set of nipple piercings recently by the lovely Ellie! She made me feel so comfortable and was excellent with the piercings they look so cute!

Such a lovely studio! I popped in for a walk in tattoo last week and all the staff were super kind and helpful. The quality of Matias’ work is amazing, I’m in love with my new ink! The best souvenir I could have got from Edinburgh, would definitely come back next time I’m in the city!

Petra did an amazing job with these fine line tattoos. The studio is small but really well organised and they are very strict with ID, design approval, cleanliness and very friendly. Will definitely be going back all the way from Newcastle.

SANATORIUM TATTOO REVIEWS

Blown away and really happy with my new Tattoo by Konrad! Konrad worked closely with me to get my tattoo just right and answered any questions I had about it and put his input on the design. He was very reassuring and calm. A very gifted tattoo artist and overall general nice guy! All the staff at the shop were very nice and helpful too! Great communication and overall realness with their attitude. Will be using this studio for many many years. All the best guys

The staff here are so friendly and very accommodating. Excellent communication and the quality of work is superb. Price is very reasonable for the quality you receive and are similar to many other tattoo places in terms of price. Tomek the artist I saw was very professional and made my tattoo amazing to the design I wanted. Truly love it.

Had an excellent experience with Sanatorium! I was greeted by Luke who was kind, funny and professional. Szabi is a talented artist and was also very nice. I will totally recommend these folks to friends when they're in Edinburgh!

THE DEVIL'S SCRIBE TATTOO REVIEWS

got a new tattoo today, Erem the tattooist listened to me and gave me exactly what i wanted. It is a tribute to one of my late husbands tattoos, (that was done in the 1980s ) it had to be very specific and he absolutely nailed it, i am so happy with the result. It also has my husbands handwriting from an old valentines card. I love it!.

The whole staff was absolutely amazing. Extremely friendly and flexible. Tristan did an amazing job and his line work is clean and it barely hurt! Thank you to Tristan and the whole team for the experience. I will definitely come back and recommend my friends to come here.

Booking the appointment was super easy, staff was sweet and professional, and procedure itself took couple of minutes and was painless. It was obvious everything they used was new and sterile. Would 100% recommend.
