I had always trusted this Tattoo Shop,since I went before for my industrial and it turned out…read morefantastic,but I'm not sure about it now. I went down to get my rook done around the beginning of January around a Sunday, and this piercer who looked like a complete newbie at the whole industry was doing it. One,he asked WHAT a rook was. Everything was getting fishy for me and I probably shouldn't have proceeded. Two,I had paid £25-£30 for a really shit job. He didn't even pierce my cartilage,he literally just pierced my skin as if it was some fucked up dermal. He kept fiddling with my bar which hurt my ear even more because he took 5 minutes to screw a ball on. I've never had anything like this happen to me before. I was beyond disgusted. Then just on Thursday, the piercing "wore off" my skin per say, and dropped into my hand. I was enraged. So I decided to call them up,and the female I was talking to said I may need to pay FULL PRICE for a "mistake"! I cannot wait until I am down there to demand for a discount! All they need to do is get some proper piercers in there who actually know what piercing is what!

I've recently had both feet tattooed by Myles Vear at Cherrys Tattoos. Myles was excellent. I…read moredidn't really know what I wanted other than to get my feet inked. I got lots of advice and suggestions from Myles who drew a couple of custom pieces for me. The price I paid was second to none considering how close this studio is to London. They also have a couple of other tattoo artists and someone who does piercings. I would highly recommend a trip to Cherrys to check out Myles work. They have a facebook page with images so have a look at that as well.

This is a really great, clean and professional shop. While…read moreI've only been tattooed by Simon Erl, from what I can tell, all of the artists here are incredibly reliable and talented. The shop is located really close to the hornchurch station making it easy for those of us who don't drive.

I went for two tattoos this week at the tattoo age ilford, it was certain the man was a racist, he…read moremade me stand for more than 10 minutes while he sat. The professionalism is bad and a very poor customer service, this man was grumpy all through i was there, it was clear he had a problem with my skin color. Read other reviews before going, Never going there again. Totally not worth it.

I wanted to book an appointment with Tattoo Age in Fulham but due to a glitch on Google I got…read moreredirected to Tattoo Age studio in Ilford without realising because of the same name. I booked the appointment and paid a £20 deposit and only when I got the confirmation stating the address in Ilford I realised the mistake and cancelled the booking within 7 min (this was late night so wouldn't get picked up by the shop immediately anyway) I was aware of the non refundable deposit but due to the nature of the mistake I was confident that I could call them up next day and explain and get the £20 refunded. It took 40 min for someone to pick up and after explaining the issue the phone was passed to a manager. The lady I talked to was rude and hostile throughout the whole conversation. She told me it wasn't her problem and not her mistake and how it couldn't be possible. I told her that I would take a video clip of me being directed to the website by google so she could see how I couldn't have known. After reviewing the video she comes to the same conclusion that it wasn't her problem and she wouldn't give me the money. I haven't used this tattooist but I'm officially still a paying customer because if this incident and I have never experienced customer service so poor. I tried to explain and not blaming them just asking nicely for a refund but she wasn't having it. Wouldn't recommend doing business with this kind of shady business.

I had an extremely disappointing experience with the manager at Prophecy. My sister came in getting…read more a tattoo done and while she was getting it done I was distracting her as she's not fond of needles, instead of receiving support or understanding, she was met with an unprofessional, dismissive, and downright unsympathetic attitude. The manager not only lacked empathy but also made her feel unwelcome, as though her needs and situation were insignificant. A tattoo shop should be a space where people can express themselves and find comfort through art, but this place fell far short of that. The lack of compassion was shocking, and it's clear that the manager has no interest in making customers feel heard or valued. If you're looking for a tattoo studio with staff who actually care about their clients and treat them with basic respect, I would strongly recommend taking your business elsewhere. There are plenty of better shops in town where kindness, professionalism, and customer care are a priority. Save yourself the frustration and avoid this place at all costs. Not to forget he was having a full blown conversation with his previous client!
