Realism tattoos in Birmingham

“This wasn’t my first tattoo, but it was my first time being tattooed by a woman, and it was an amazing experience! Dark Rose Tattoo is a studio I can wholeheartedly recommend. I was a bit worried about the pain, but any nerves I had quickly disappeared – the atmosphere was welcoming, and the artist was both professional and meticulous. She explained the entire process, which made me feel comfortable and at ease. The tattoo turned out beautifully, exactly as I’d imagined! I’ll definitely be back for another one. Highly recommended!”

“[The picture was taken the day after getting the tattoo.] I was tattooed by Zoe, we had such a great time chatting while she tattooed me. When we were starting with just the stencil, she moved it as many times as I asked, until I was completely happy with it and checked multiple times before permanently inking me. I was able to ask for shading on the tattoo where I wanted it and she was more than happy to do that. When I was conflicted about if I wanted any more on the front legs she reminded me that I am given a free touch up a month later so if I don't love it I can make some minor changes then. My tattoo is healing incredibly well, there has been no redness and no soreness, it already 2 weeks later feels like it has been here forever. The tattoo studio is incredibly well kept, very clean with visible hand washing stations and hand sanitizer everywhere, clingfilm is used to keep everything highly sterile. The needles are unpacked in front of you meaning you have full confidence that they are sterile and the area on your skin is fully sanitised before tattooing. I highly recommend this tattoo studio and if I ever have the courage/want for more dinosaurs I will 100% be going back to Iron Tiger Studios and Zoe.”

“I’ve been going to Nick now for a few years. I won’t go anywhere else. I love that atmosphere of the studio. I love him such a kind genuinely nice guy. Always greeted with a smile. I love all my tattoos Nick has done for me. I’ve finally found myself and my style and that’s thanks to Nick. I’m always recommending friends and family to him and recently my fiancé and they’ve all said what a lush guy Nick is. And that’s why everyone keeps going back. Thing I like about Nick the most is he cares. He actually loves what he does and you can see it and it shows in his work. Thank you so much buddy see you soon.”

“Absolutely brilliant service from the shop and both brilliant tattooists highly recommended”

“Had my first tattoo done at Vivid Ink Stourbridge with Wyl, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the result — it turned out even better than I imagined. The whole experience was brilliant from start to finish. Wyl was professional, patient, and incredibly talented. The rest of the team were also really friendly and made me feel completely at ease. Would 100% recommend Wyl and everyone at Vivid Ink Stourbridge — great atmosphere and top-quality work!”

“I’ve came twice to this tattoo place and it never disappoints! I’ve had Chloe both times and her tattoo designs are beautiful. She makes you feel at ease and relaxed, the shop is clean as well as all the equipment they use! Everyone in the shop is super friendly and talkative which makes the experience a whole lot better and calming! They also have a great range of aftercare items to buy, I brought some and used them daily whilst my tattoo was healing and it really helped. My tattoo is still looking amazing. I Would 100% recommend this shops, the stylists and the work they do! Wouldn’t go elsewhere.”
