    Punktured definitely announces itself, with a loud turquoise and pink shopfront and a giant ball-bearing piercing the sign. There's really no mistaking what they're up to here! Inside, the place is pretty minimal, with glass cases lining the walls. Naturally you can have anything you like pierced, right from the classic first ear piercing to a more adventurous (and ouch!) Prince Albert! The staff are friendly, experienced and knowledgeable and really put you at ease if you feel nervous. You are taken into another room for the actual event, so you won't feel like you're on display. All piercings are done with a needle (not a stud-gun in sight!), which is way better for your body and the healing process but is a little harder on the purse... ears will cost you around £30 for the pair. This does include jewellery though and they have a good selection. Unlike some their places, they use rings for ear piercing, which I found were less irritating to my ears than studs. Even if you don't actually require a new piercing or are unsure, Punktured is a good place to investigate your options or pick up jewellery...they have an impressive selection of bellybutton bars, if you're ever in need!

    One incredibley Rude and dismissive woman at the counter. Overpriced jewellery and constantly trying to "up sell" to you. Awful service.

    Not very friendly and my navel was wonky. Don't let the trainee pierce you!

    Intro is a small body piercing and tattoo studio in a convenient location along Queens road, not…read moretoo far from Churchill Square. I went here to get my tongue pierced. The staff are very friendly and make you feel very comfortable. I went in there to ask how painful it would be - a common question no doubt, and they gave me some great advice - go away, have a burger, don't think about it, then come and do it! They're very clean, very professional and as I said they do a good job of making you very at ease. Price wise they're very fairly priced in my opinion, having had other piercings before now. I've been back to this place regularly to buy new tongue balls and belly bars as I also have my belly button pierced. I think they have a good selection of body jewellery but not an overly excessive amount, however the prices in comparison to Punktured (in the North Laines) are a lot less. This is the only place I have had a piercing done in Brighton but I'd say the standard of the service is great. It's difficult to review a piercing place if you're getting something pierced that you haven't before as it's difficult to compare or know how it was supposed compare to other piercings... Saying that, my boyfriend has had his nipple pierced in this place after having it done previously at a different studio - the first time he had it pierced it never really heeled properly and he ended up taking it out, but since he recently had it repierced at Intro, he hasn't noticed any problems. All I can say that this is a decent piercing place and that the staff are very open and friendly with you and are always happy to give advice or answer your questions about anything so if you're trying to find a place to get something pierced I can safely say that you'll have nothing to worry about if you go to Intro. - Two years on and I've had no problems with my tongue piercing.. .

    I had a tattoo done here just over a year ago, and it is fantastic! The detail in the piece was…read morelovely, and the staff were really friendly and welcoming! The lady who did my tattoo was really talkative whilst doing my tattoo which was great as it distracted me from the pain, and she also gave me lollies which was nice as well, haha! Great atmosphere so I'd definitely recommend!

The first time I visited this place I watched my mate get branded in the downstairs room. The last time I was there was Sunday, and I watched my boyfriend get tattooed. I'll be returning as soon as I have the dosh to extend my own tattoo. With a small, clean but not clinical upstairs tattooing and piercing room, a huge corner sofa dominating the waiting area and a horde of body art magazines and brochures, as well as a computer screen showing films and playing music, it's a friendly, unintimidating and comfortable place to get inked. The prices are reasonable, the quality is exceptional, and the staff are really chatty and friendly, easing the nerves of anxious customers. Open 'til 11pm most nights, Diablo is a favourite for many Brighton body modders.

I really tried to love this tattoo but feel like crying everytime i look at it. I went back and told him i didn't like it expecting him to be a bit concerned or at least offer to try and rectify it for nothing, however he wanted more money on top of the 320 i had already paid. Please please don't risk your skin here when there are so many cheaper and better places in Brighton. BEWARE!
