Customized tattoos in Stockport

“Full disclosure: I am not a customer. With that being said,… This establishment is made with love, passion, blood, sweat, and determination that came from its owner, Jori Lakars, aka Hott Mama, aka The Mama who always gave herself goals and standards that benefited the world to the fullest and implemented the highest standards possible. A quick glance at her path shows that she has been successful in the industry well known in a way that the number of 5 reviews or social media followers will not reflect. I met her personally only once before she moved to England about 17 years ago. She was working in a popular tattoo shop in Wicker Park that I won’t name. ( if you know, you know) the had long ravenous hair and substantially fewer tattoos. Although I had met many women who were in the industry, few were celebrated by their peers. The shop posted a large banner in the front window that said ‘we have a female tattoo artist.’ I had never seen that before even in a liberal city like Chicago. Soon after that, every shop in the area had at least one ‘female.’ She went on to work at many of the best rated shops and worked on the best artists in the business as clients. When she moved, we were sad yet proud to see that she was following her passion overseas. She would wonder up one of the top artists anywhere she worked. She finally got her own place and put every ounce of work into it. Sadly, she had just acquired two young brilliant talents just recently. A couple of weeks ago, she passed away in a car accident without any warning. I t is a shock that she is gone and her energy is eternally resting. I have known her half of my life and I have never known anyone like her. A true inspiration and individual person who is driven to create. If you are lucky enough to have had a moment with her, you know what I mean. Love to her local community from Chicago. We were all lucky enough to be together for as long as we could,…… Cheers to Jori.”

“Great artist, booked me in last minute for a small tattoo, friendly, lovely clean and professional studio, can't recommend enough! Thank you”

“Maisie is a wonderful tattoo artist, so easy to get along with whilst maintaining a high level of professionalism. She was very accommodating to my needs of frequent breaks and even offered me cups of tea. The result of my tattoo was even better than what I had originally imagined. 6 months on, my tattoo still looks just as amazing. I could not be more happier with the result. I highly recommend Stone Heart Tattoos. I shall be returning in the near future.”

“I wouldn't go anywhere else for any of my Ink. I have been tattooed by 3 of the artists here now, which is almost 2 sleeves, a large back piece and a decent size tattoo on my leg. I can't fault anything on any of them. All the staff are very clean and hygienic, and absolutely brilliant at what they do. Excellent for custom work and portraits. I recommend them very highly to all my friends and family”

“I’ve been going to Blue Valentine tattoo for 2.5 years to see Sioux Tattoo. She has done the majority of my tattoos and the vibes are always on point. The art is incredible every time and i get so many compliments on them. Sioux Tattoo is literally the easiest person to spend 8 hours in pain with; the music and banter is always there. Can’t recommend enough!!”

“This was my second visit 10 years apart. I lost my mum and dad nearly two years ago in the space of 3 months of them both . So I had a special tribute tattoo that I wanted for them both . Lee and Faye completed between them and did an amazing job which my mum and dad would have been proud. Thank you again Tony”

“During my visits with Donna having laser treatment i feel very relaxed, at ease and well informed. Donna has high standards of patient care and clinic cleanlines which I love. We chat about anything and everything which makes my treatment feel less intense. I do honestly recommend Donna at That Laser & Skin Clinic for laser treatments but she also has other amazing treatments on offer also, don’t look else where because she is a 5⭐️”

“I've always had the most amazing tattoo experience with Kerry. She made me feel so at ease and so comfortable. The other artists are also amazing, and in general always had a friendly, amazing day with everyone there. Cannot recommend the studio more!”

“I have been going to Beauty and the ink for years and would recommend it to anyone. The team are well experienced and the quality of care is excellent. I have my lashes done every 3 weeks by Liv and always get so many compliments on how natural they look. I have had my laser done by Charlotte and have been so impressed by the results.”

“Went to Mike's shops today with a tattoo i had done in turkey which was horrendous to say the least to see what he could do to improve it he managed I don't no how to change the tattoo completely hes done an amazing job the attention to detail is unbelievable I can't thank him enough he talked through everything with me first its such a chilled place I would highly recommend him and I can't wait now for him to do the next one .”

“I went to Hollie for my fillers and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results! She’s so knowledgeable and really takes the time to explain everything, which made me feel super comfortable. Her attention to detail is amazing and she made sure I got exactly what I wanted. The whole experience was professional, friendly, and relaxed. I’d 100% recommend Hollie to anyone thinking about getting fillers – she’s the best!”
