Exploding Ink

Love it here, great clean premises. Friendly, helpful, and excellent at their craft. They offer a range of services, and brilliant communication. Strongly recommend, I will not go anywhere else

I came to exploding ink for my first colour tattoo and I’m blown away with it. After a few dodgy tattoos done by another shop I’m so pleased to have found Karl! The customer service is great, plus they let you watch whatever you like on telly. Can’t wait to come back!

Hand on heart ❤️ amazing place, had a small paper plane tattoo and it's prefect. The place is super clean the staff are so friendly, this place is a hidden gem.

Can't thank Karl enough for my tattoo,designed by my daughter he just tweaked it where needed. Professional and friendly. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Highly recommend this lovely family run studio. Thank you Karl and Kerry.

Extremely professional and friendly place to get your special or unique tattoos

Wouldn't go anywhere else. Can not recommend karl enough hes an absolute genius and amazing at his work. Hes such a nice bloke and so easy to chat to while having your tattoo. His design work is fantastic, give him an idea of what you want he will turn it into the perfect tattoo. I've had piercings with Kerry who is absolutely fantastic to, she put me at ease and was very professional for the whole process. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a tattoo or piercing.

My sister and I both got matching tattoos- they took around 40 mins each and the tattoos both turned out looking great and identical even being on different sides of our ribs- we both adore them and he was great when tattooing them, especially it being on a sensitive area! When I have an idea for a new tattoo I will definitely be returning, as the atmosphere and professionalism was great! The pricing is very suitable for the tattoo size and If colour is used or not- no complaints or negative comments.
