I went here for my ears piercing years ago and then for my eyebrow pierced a few months back and…read moreits a really good shop. The manager who does the piercing is very friendly and polite and chatty - he really put me at my ease even though it wasnt me who was nervous it was my mum. The equipment is fully sterilised and comes from a unopened packet so you can be sure of the quality and hygiene. I was told how to care for my piercing and made sure I knew what to do next to care for it. The shop is at thte top of ivegate just underneaf the klick photoshop and it is easy to walk past as the signing is only on the windows and if you didnt know it was there you wouldnt find it. There are a few steps to go down and then you are in a small waiting room with another small room for the piercing. There is a huge supply of jewellery to choose from and hygiene products.

I went to get my cartilage pierced here and was greeted by a man. I told him that I had previously…read morehad 2 cartilage piercings before but got the mistake of getting them done with a gun because I wasnt previously aware that it is unsafe to do so. I asked him to check my ear and see if it was safe to get it re pierced safely and he said yes. He sat me down on my chair and told me he was sanitising the area and before I knew it I was pierced. He did not ask me what position I wanted the piercing or show me what he was using - he just pierced me. I was extremely startled at how fast it was over and had doubts whether he used a needle or not because it happened so fast. I later rang them back and asked the man to confirm whether he used a gun or needle and he said that they only use needles as a gun would shatter my cartilage. I took his word for it but then my sister remembered she took a video of me getting my piercing and we realised that he had in fact used a gun! I have also read reviews online that say that he uses guns for cartilage piercings. I have checked the official bradford council guidelines and it clearly states a piercing gun should not be used on anywhere other than ear lobes. I have also spoken to a friend who had her cartilage pierced here almost 7 years ago and he used a gun. This man has been doing this for many years and should have his license removed after unsafe practices and lying to his customers. I have emailed bradford council and hoping they revoke this mans license!

Okay, so for body modifications, this place couldn't get much better…read more Let me point out that anything but piercings are a permanent change to your body, so should be carefully thought about before you go for anything doing. So as for a review, I cannot recommend this place highly enough. I started getting my piercings here as a one off really and found that they simply are the best place I've ever been. The staff are really friendly, really professional and know what they are talking about. I now only use this place for any of my bod mods, and I have to travel nearly an hour and a half to get here (I have to use public transport :/) but because I know the service I receive is phenomenal and prices are superb, it's worth it.

I went in wanting a simple tattoo. The staff on the till upstairs were really friendly. All was…read morewell until I went downstairs to speak to the tattooist. I told him what I wanted. He did a rough sketch on my skin with pen and I'm not going to lie it didn't look good. I showed him a picture of what I wanted and he started to draw it out, but it didn't look like anything like what I'd shown. I mentioned this and he re-drew. He spent a grand total of 2 minutes re-drawing and I said very politely that I liked what he had drawn but wanted one part of altering - I feel entitled to say this as it is going on my skin permanently. This seemed to anger the tattooist and he slammed the iPad case shut that he'd been drawing on and proceeded to swear at me. At that point I said "I'll leave it then" and he then stood up abruptly and tore up my consent form in front of me. I could understand this behaviour and treatment if I'd have been demanding, rude, unreasonable, if I'd have asked for it to be redrawn well over a handful of times. And if the tattooist had have been drawing for a long time. But I didn't and I wasn't. I don't think I was in the shop for more than 10 minutes. Definitely will not be setting foot in there again. Not a pleasant experience at all.

If I could give Studio 38 more than five stars I would do.

Every member of staff is knowledgeable, friendly and extremely talented; Danny and Adam are nothing short of miracle workers. Levels of hygiene are excellent and prices very reasonable, and I would happily recommend this place to anyone.

Never had any problems, people are always super nice and I love the atmosphere in the shop, the prices are totally reasonable (my septum is my most expensive piercing because it was at a convention, none of my others were over £30), and whoever pierces me always makes sure to be respectful, letting me know what's happening the whole time and making sure I know how to do aftercare. I've had 3 tattoos done here: my semicolon on my wrist, the text on my ankle, and my stomach runes. I'm also hoping to go there for a thigh piece in the future; I fully trust the artists and their quality, and I know that anything I get there I'm going to be happy with. The minimum charge of £60 is alright for most tattoos, though I admit it was quite a lot for my little semicolon. BUT, since that was my first tattoo and I wanted it to be perfect, I didn't really mind. I freaking love this place tbh, and several of my friends do too, and my sister loves them for piercings. I've never had a bad experience or felt uncomfortable whatsoever, 10/10 would definitely recommend!

Last year, being a fresher in university and enjoying freedom at its best coupled with the will to…read moretry something new every other day, my best friend and I, decided that it was time to stop piercing the ears (which off course had been punctured way too many times!) and go for the navel! The idea was way too thrilling. We were on the hunt and while taking a walk on the Oldham Street, we stood in front of this piercing parlour-'Holier than thou'; the name and its graphics instantly attracted me as a customer and we had finally picked our place. It's very neat and spacious when one glances from the outside, in contrast to many other dingy places in the city which give the idea of it not being safe somehow, if you're new to the constant 'piercing' world. The insides are full with shelves with any type of tiny jewellery you are looking for and this will definitely catch your eye and make you look forward to the experience. The staff was very polite and assuring, almost like the assuring nurses in a clinic! There is a separate room for the piercing which looks too clean for anyone to imagine, and thus puts the customer's fears to a rest, especially at a piercing parlour! My friend and I sat through it sequentially and the guy doing it, very skilfully engages us in flowery conversation and the job is done even before you can feel it! This place is complete in itself with a large collection of jewellery and is very helpful in case you need to go back for any questions or changes. You're also given a paper with all sorts of instructions to follow for 100% safety- very professional must say! Since then, I have been suggesting and sometimes even dragging friends for piercings here and none have left without a smile or thrill swept across their face! So if you're looking for a bit of body art and are unsure about hygiene, staff and jewellery, look no further and step right in!
