    Tattoo #2 took two years of planning followed by a further two years of panicking over the right…read moretattoo parlour combined with a helluva lot of "should I/ shouldn't I" brain-stress (new word, add it to the dictionary). But 4 years on, I finally have the little pink flower I've been yearning for. And I have Manchester Ink to thank for it. My hairdresser has a lot of lovely ink, and when questioned, recommended this place to me. So off I went to investigate, and I liked what I saw, booked in, a bit of to-ing and fro-ing with the artist and voilà. There is a little reception area with a coffee machine and chilled drinks on sale, along with a computer in case you want to look up any images to discuss with the artist. The second room is where the business happens. It's super clean and sterile there. There are few places where the smell of bleach and disinfectant can be so pleasant and reassuring, but I reckon a tattoo parlour is one of them. They also have their own autoclave - the machine that sterilises all the equipment. From my experience, the staff all seemed very approachable and friendly. Yes, some of them are indeed covered head to toe in beautiful ink, but there was none of the stand-offish, superior behaviour that I was certainly concerned about when I went to get my first tattoo as a timid girl of 19. Because my tattoo was so small, and also quite simple, they said juste to arrive 10 minutes before the appointment to work with the artist. Initially I was a bit uncomfortable because I like to agree on a design before making the commitment (a £20 deposit at the time of booking). But actually it worked out pretty well: I mean there's no way I would have let anyone near me with a needle until I was totally satisfied anyway. I emailed some I ages over before I arrived, went through them with the artist, asked him to make a few changes, then a few more changes, and he seemed to be quite patient with me. The actual tattooing process was fine, and the guy listened to what I said about colouring etc as we went along. At the end I was given a sheet with my aftercare instructions on: handy as I have a brain like a sieve. I would definitely recommend this place. But do be careful if you're fickle or prone to changing your mind: ideally I would have liked to at least be able to sleep on it after choosing the final design to make sure it was definitely what I wanted. I don't think I would have changed anything, but it would have been more comforting!

    I sent my sketches to them via email and I was contacted very quickly by a member of staff offering…read moreappointment slots and prices. I called to confirm my booking and put down a £20 deposit. A quick and hassle free way to book in for my tattoo. One of the tattoo artists had called in sick the day I was booked in so they were running a little behind schedule, but there were vending machines and a seating area to chill out in and browse some of their previous works prior to heading in. Plese note, their website also offers portfolios for most of the staff members so you know which artist to book with prior to going, depending on your style. The tattooing area was extremely clean and the staff prepare all of the equipment in front of you so you know it's safe. They have chairs and full beds so that you can be as comfortable as possible whilst getting inked. All staff were happy and friendly. Clearly they love what they do and take care to ensure that all customers go away satisfied. I will certainly be heading back again for my next tattoo!!

    Worth the travel. Tom Au, one half of Tenacious Tattoo is…read morethe brother of a friend so when I found out he had trained to be a tattoo artist and opened up his own shop I thought I would test his skills. I am very indecisive and never thought I would be able to choose a design that would last me the rest of my life but I knew the basics of what I wanted. So I emailed Tom and in just a couple days I had the most perfect design drawn. The drive from Manchester to Sheffield took just over an hour but was well worth it. Tom spent a good amount of time getting the sizing right and then drew the tree on me free hand. It looked just like the picture I was very impressed! And so the fun began. I had already had a tattoos before so I knew what to expect. The first tattoo Tom did for me was on the same part but opposite side (if that makes sense) of my body to a previous tattoo that hurt quite a bit. But Tom has this super calming manner about himself that he seems to share. I'm not saying it was pain free, but it definitely was less painful by a huge amount than my previous tattoos. Anyway, I lay there for 4 hours and the end result was fantastic! And the best part of it is I know it is unique because Tom designed it just for me and changed the parts I asked. I have since been back for more work done and plan to go back for the rest of my days. I would thoroughly recommend Tom from Tenacious Tattoo!

    I've had a couple of tattoos from Deryn, one of the artists and owners of Tenacious Tattoo. Each…read moreone was after a lengthy discussion about what I wanted, including lots of drawing up of designs etc to make sure I was really happy with it. Then, cup of tea in hand, I lay back and let her do her work. I've had several tattoos from various studios, but Deryn is the best artist who has ever tattooed me - she's calm, happy to chat to take your mind off things, happy to take a break if you need it. The designs done by her (wrist and ankle) barely hurt at all. The shop (just round the corner from Darnall train station so fairly easy to get to) is welcoming and scrupulously clean, and all the staff are really friendly. They're very dedicated to making sure that tattoos are done right, so everything is (as it should be) sterilised/wrapped etc. Even with the high quality kit out and service, it's still incredibly moderately priced. Looking at work done by the other artists I'd say this is one of the best studios in the UK, and with a range of specialisations there will be an artist to suit most people. I can't see me travelling anywhere else.
