Eclectic Ink are what all good tattoo/piercing places should be: Clean, friendly, knowledgable and…read morevery encouraging! If you're looking for personalised service with a tattoo artist who will take great care of you and make sure you're happy with the work she does, this is the place. I've been tattooed twice by Nadia, am booking in for my third piece and highly recommend her. No question is too stupid, no piece too geeky! I've been to other studios but have never felt more comfortable getting needles stuck in me has I have here. EI is a small studio with just one piercer and one tattoo artist but what they lack in size they more than make up for in style. Both owners care deeply about making sure you come away from the shop smiling, and I always do - or else I wouldn't keep going back!

I'm just back from getting my first ever major piece of ink at this place. I had a large design for…read moremy back, and I'm extremely happy with both the result and the experience! It's run by husband and wife team, Woody and Stef, and I had Stef work on me. It took over 4 hours for the whole thing, including breaks here and there, and I felt comfortable and in control the whole time. I was often asked if I was ok, needed to stop, wanted a drink, etc, in amongst a great chat that wandered through musical tastes, tattoo ideas and designs, stories of good and bad tattoo/piercing experiences...The 4 hours passed by extremely quickly! I am already keen to get back and get more! The service was warm and friendly, professional yet chatty. I'd definitely recommend it. And now a twist...Some of you may be wondering what a Luthier is? Well, that's a maker of musical instruments such as violins and guitars. Looking for a truly original, custom made guitar? Then this is the place for you! I can't write a proper review of this side of the business as I haven't personally experienced it, however the boyfriend is seriously considering getting one, so watch this space! :D

I have a love hate relationship with my tattoos. I have/had 2. One I love, it's my son's birthday -…read morethe other? A nice idea executed badly in a hurry and by a charlatan. Yes, a charlatan. I don't use that language lightly, folks... Thankfully, Screamin' Skull in Lanark advised me superbly. I wanted to get something tattooed round what I had, but my tattooist looked at it and where it was placed (off centre of my arm) and advised a cover up instead. I gave him 3 or 4 photos and a rough sketch of an idea I had to incorporate the old tattoo, and left it in his capable hands. I returned a week later to see the final draft, and was utterly blown away. His design was incredible, and included some negative space work which I'd never thought of to distract from where the covered part was. I paid the equivalent of 2 hours of custom work, but thanks to having to leave the first sitting because of bus times and school closing times, he was fine with me coming back and going slightly over time. I probably got double what I paid, and would happily have paid more (I tried to give him a bit extra, but he declined!) for what I got. The work was simply incredible. Quick, accurate, and extremely artful, it went above and beyond what I expected and hoped for. I've spoken to 2 or 3 friends who have several tattoos and they agree with me that this is excellent work, so it's not just post ink bliss, Honestly, if you're anywhere near the area and thinking of getting something done, I would not hesitate to recommend Screamin' Skull. I hadn't planned on it... but I'll be back for more, I think. I has the bug now!

This is tattooist who works from home; she has converted her spare room in to a tattoo studio which…read moremeets the requirements for doing tattoos within. She is really good and will design your tattoo on the computer or you can pick tattoos from the computer or take your own design in for her. I am currently going to get a tattoo from her and she took photos of my old tattoo and designed another around my one I already have which I thought was really good as it gave me an idea of what it was going to look like. She also does tattoo removal. I know someone who has had this done and it works really well. She also does tattoo cover ups. Amazing tattooist who really knows what she is talking about and will offer great advice on what you want. She does hair extensions, acrylic nails and body piercings. These are all at amazing prices.

Because of the nature of the business, you have to have an appointment, and must be let in by one of the staff. Going up the stairs, you see the attention bro derail in how the place is decorated. Upstairs, we signed in and waited for the person that their appointment was with. That person was awesome they took the time to chat with and explain the process. It really put my friend at ease. I can honestly say if I were going to get something pierced or inked, I'd feel comfortable and confident here.
