Top 30 Best Permanent body art in Manchester

“I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new brows! Jess is so professional and lovely. She listened and used her expertise to create my new and desired brows, the colour match is perfect, the shape and execution gorgeous. I would definitely recommend her to anyone wanting semi-permanent brows.”

“Went for a Piercing which unfortunately got infected, the lady who does them was really understanding and professional and asked me to go in she told me to get antibiotics which I did, she removed the piercing so it could get better as it was swollen. After a few weeks she re pierced and I've not had any issues. She looked after me no problem and didn't ask for any further cost. I would definitely go back. 5* service”

“Recently had a tattoo here, service was excellent, just planning my new one, so will be back very soon”

“Love this shop. Simon is awesome. Honest about what can and cannot be done and the likely outcome etc. It’s not about the money - it about getting the art right! Would not hesitate to recommend so much so that when my daughter decided she wanted a tattoo (aged 18!!) I made sure Simon was the one to do it!”

“Great place with excellent service, great value and worth every penny, make me amazing tattoo, really appreciate it bro thank you!!”

“Great tattoo artist, very happy with my new tattoo and the going over of an old tattoo. Excellent”

“Tattoos by Nic is the Only place we as a family will go, in our opinion Nic is the best tattooist locally, by far!!!! She has gone above & beyond, opened up one sat just for me & my sister. Made lots of money for the Manchester bee appeal!! Tattoo wise, wow, the intricate details she does are amazing. My hubby has a full back piece, American Indians,detail is amazing!! Come up with an idea & Nic will draw it, FANTASTIC See you soon Nic XxxxxxxX”

“What an awesome experience I had. I randomly went on Google looking for tattoo places in Sale and found this little gem of a place. I’ve been wanting to have a tattoo forever and woke up in the morning feeling today is the day. I messaged Dale and got a reply few minutes later. Few hours later I was there getting my first tattoo. Dale is so kind and friendly and made the whole experience even better. Very professional too. I was very impressed with the design, skills and precision. I would very highly recommend this place. And if I do decide to get a second tattoo I won’t look any further. Thanks Dale it wasn’t just a tattoo for me.”

“On my first visit Sophie did two piercings for me. Super helpful at the booking, lovely studio with a great selection of jewellery. Sophie went through with me process in detail. Aftercare has also been great too. Healing perfectly! Looking forward to my next! Thanks Sophie”

“Amazing cool studio, very clean and professional. Excellent consultation and artistic production of my potential tattoo. Lou was really easy to spend time with and I’m made up with the finished product. Great value for money as this guy delivers a quality tattoo. I will not go anywhere else from now on.”

“Being tattooed by Rebecca is the best. The whole process from start to finish is a dream and I keep coming back. She's a talented lady, she never draws what I expect her to and I'm always blown away, there's a reason she's an artist. She's totally approachable, I've asked her to make adjustments in the past and she was amazing about it. She is heaps of fun to be around too, I love my appointments with her, we always have things to talk about and many laughs are had. I love her, if you met her, you would too.”

“What a very enjoyable experience if you want a quality tattoo this is the place to come to. Hazel you did an amazing job. Thank you”

“What a team of great people!!! I’ve had multiple piercings here and they smashed my husbands new tattoo (which he won from scratch cards that they offer at Christmas) I highly recommend and will be booking in for my own tattoo very soon!!”

“I've had my tattoo around three years now, it's extremely high quality, very clean place, and excellent artwork. I had my first tattoo here and I felt very comfortable and at ease - Would completely recommend to anyone looking to get a tattoo; any kind of tattoo, simple or intricate.”

“I just had my naval piercing today and Cheshire Tattoo studio couldn't do enough. Service was amazing and everything was top notch. They're very friendly and we're very helpful when I felt a bit faint, they couldn't do enough for me. Piercing is beautiful and the best one yet! Thank you Lee. I definitely recommend!”

“It's not a huge place but they do have some fantastic tattooists & that's the main reason why you go here as it's clean and you get a really good tattoo done. Olivia is very good, she talks through everything you want & will suggest ideas prior to working on you. Rates are comparable with other shops so they are fair. Parking is the only issue coming here as there is no outside parking so you have to use a multi storey up the road.”

“Really nice chilled out environment, friendly tattoo artists with great skill. Got a special writing piece and got excellent information and advice on where it would best be suited. No one rushes you to get the tattoo done, and the finish work looks amazing. Also good value for money. Go see Mick for line and writing work! Totally happy with this new addition, my grandad will be proud.”

“Chris James is amazing he has given me exactly what I wanted in my tattoo. I will be back to get the rest of my arm finished”

“Had three tattoos there now and I couldn't be happier with them. All really friendly people and stayed open later to do my last tattoo as I don't get home till 5pm. Quality tattoos from a great bunch of people”

“I have used Mikey and Emma as my go to tattooists for well over 3 years now and I wouldn't go anywhere else!! Nothing is an issue with them, their creativity is unsurpassed and I can't wait to get another one! 2/2/23Edit... Went to Emma (Missfitts) yesterday for 2 piercings...can't commend her highly enough for her professionalism, her knowledgeability and attention to detail...again, I cannot fault her, and is my go to whenever I either need a tattoo or piercing...xx”

“Great first nose piercing experience after looking at reviews and other places, I would return here again and only use Voodoo for future piercings. The lady who did my piercing was quick, friendly and professional and you can tell she is very experienced 5*”

“I’ve recently been to Temple Tattoo Studio for a tattoo on my arm. From the minute of walking in to having the tattoo done, I was made to feel welcome. I knew what I wanted but wasn’t sure how it would work on my arm. Abi the tattooist went through it with me and designed my piece and it was better than I could’ve imagined. On the day of the tattoo, I was made to feel very welcome by Joe, who is Abi’s partner, as he allowed me to play my own music which really helped. The tattoo that Abi did was brilliant and I even booked in and paid a deposit for just before Christmas to have it continuing down my arm. They were very reasonably priced as well which was an added bonus. All in all, it was great experience.”

“Me, my wife and several friends have all had ink done here. I first got tattoos and piercings there many years ago but now it's just Mike and Bez, it's improved dramatically. Definitely my go to for any work. Great artists, great taste in music and just decent people. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Great work and reasonable prices.”

“Absolutely love this place, the eyelashes are to die for and all the staff are lovely. Would highly recommend”

“Booked for a spray tan last minute... excellent service she ( ?Demi) really took her time to do great even coverage and allowed plenty of time to dry off. Will definitely go back”
