All about us.....

 

I (Becs) specialise in custom tattoo's, unique personnal designs are always the best tattoos. Any ideas are welcome for discussion in a consultation. I like to make our clients feel comfortable, relaxed and at ease with their tattoo experience. As far as I am concerned it is all about you the client. Both Darren and I will help you find the right piece for you, be it one off the wall or a complete personnal piece which I will design for you. Our clients never feel rushed they can take their time with their choice with a one to one consultation over a cuppa and a chat on the sofa. When it comes to getting tattooed in our studio it is all done at your pace. We want to make your tattoo experience the best it can be and memoriable for all the right reasons, hopefully this will encourage you to return or to recommend us to a friend. The overall feel of the studio is very comfortable, just like your sitting at home having a cuppa with your friends.

 

Our studio is fully licenced and registered with the local council. The last Enviromental Health and Safety inspection was performed on the 29th January 2010, and passed with praise and no advisories. 

 

Every piece of equipment is sterile and we use SINGLE use needles only.

 

The studio is has an open plan feel with a counter separating the waiting area from the tattoo area, we also have a very large screen that provides privacy when needed. The walls display a few of my own paintings, one wall is dedicated to some photos of the tattoos I have produced in the studio, and in the waiting area there are plenty of tattoo designs, and tattoo magazines to give you some inspiration.

On entering the studio you will be greeted with a smile, a hot cuppa and our time. A tattoo is a huge commitment, so we are committed to you, to help you acheive the tattoo you are looking for. If I am busy tattooing then Darren is on hand to make those initial consultations before booking you in for a consltation with me. Darren will answer any questions you may have regarding your tattoo request or the tattoo procedure.

 

Now for the official stuff:

 

  • Tattoos can be individualy priced or we have an hourly rate set at £55 per hour, our minimum charge is £30. In general, sleeves, back pieces, large designs etc are charged by the hour.
  • All tattoo bookings require a non-refundable deposit of £30.
  • 48 hours notice must be given when re-scheduling your booking or deposit will be lost.
  • All consulations with Darren are free, however if I am not available for a consultation with you straight away then you will require a consultation booking with me, there is also a non-refundable £30 Deposit required for this, I hope you understand that this measure has only been put in place due to timewasters. Once you have completed the consultation stage then the £30 deposit will then be used as your tattoo deposit. So in the end you are still having my consultation time for free.
  • If you require a custom piece designed for you then once again a non-refundable £30 deposit is required. Once you are satisfied with the design then the deposit will be used as your £30 tattoo deposit.
  • When starting a freehand tattoo (initially drawn directly onto the skin), you will not be charged until my machine starts buzzing and the inking begins.
