Bamboo Tattoo Studio 77 East Street, Southampton SO14 3HQ

"I walked into this studio and felt at ease straight away. The welcome was great as was the atmosphere. Billie did my tattoo today and I was extremely pleased with her work, she is very talented and knowledgeable. She also advised me well on aftercare which is so important. Thank you to everyone at Bamboo Tattoo Studio."

"My friend and I each got 2 tattoos from Billie this week and had such a good experience. We're both so happy with our tattoos and Billie was lovely and made us feel really comfortable. We felt like she really took the time to get to know us and what we wanted and the shop had a lovely feel too. I'll definitely be going back for more in the future and would really recommend!"

"A lovely tattoo studio. As soon as I went in I felt welcomed. All of the artists were very friendly and also a great laugh. Billie was my tattooist and was amazing! She showed me my design and went through how everything would look and what she would do step by step. The design was also just what I wanted, and as you can see from the photo, the quality of the detailing is fantastic! Thanks again Billie and team for making my first tattoo a great experience, and I hope to see you again for my next one."

"I would absolutely recommend Bamboo Tattoo to anyone looking to get tattoos. I get tattooed by Ash and she’s absolutely brilliant, but all the artists are super friendly and make you feel comfortable and welcome. You get involved in conversations and included. It’s a nice atmosphere to sit in while you get tattooed! Can’t recommend everybody in this studio highly enough!"

"Had the best experience here being tattooed by Billie (twice!) My first visit was my very first tattoo and I had no idea what to expect and was very nervous! Immediately on arriving I knew I'd made the right decision with Bamboo - everyone in the studio was incredibly welcoming and understanding of my nerves, and helped me feel a lot more relaxed. The studio is also very clean and all the artists clearly take hygiene and health and safety really seriously. I then met Billie, who was extremely patient and explained each step of the process really clearly to me and made sure no questions I had felt silly. I also felt absolutely no pressure whatsoever on the size/placement of my piece and I also felt really free to make any adjustments to the style of the piece before the stencil was made. Through the whole tattoo (and the subsequent ones I've had with her!), Billie has been nothing but kind, professional and extremely talented! I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her to anyone - especially anyone looking for their first tattoo or anyone who is generally worried about the process! You could honestly not be in better hands! Really excited to have more work done by Billie in the lovely Bamboo Tattoo Studio!"
