Piercing studio in Manchester

“I had an appointment with Matt for a matching tattoo with my partner. We both agree the service provided on all counts was fantastic. The studio is clean and has a relaxed atmosphere, everyone is very friendly and welcoming. Matt is a brilliant artist, he’s very professional, nothing is too much to ask. He’s thorough with design, placement and in his work in general, clearly having a passion for what he does. He’s easy to talk to, answers all questions you have and is very knowledgeable about his work. I’ll definitely be going back for more, can’t fault the service given by everyone in any way.”

“Been and got many piercings here! I have never had any issues the guys who work here are lovely! Got my first tattoo booked in for November so I am sure I will update this review once done! Only good things to say about MonsterInk”

“First ever tattoo done and rob me was amazing and very caring. He put my dad’s ashes in and helped me through picking the right tattoo. 1000% recommend him”

“Mike is a true professional and patient guy who did a very good job on my neck and arm so much so I have booked in for a full day.”

“Took my neice for her first piercing (navel) here, Lee was absolutely incredible, took time to make sure placement and bar length were perfect. The entire process was smooth and we couldnt ask for a better experience. We returned a few weeks later just for reassurance on the healing, and Lee was once again fantastic at putting our minds at ease. Thank you so much! We won't go anywhere else for piercings now. ♥️”

“I had an amazing experience at Artmageddon! I went in to get my nose pierced and was lucky enough to be taken care of by Yvonne. She was absolutely fantastic – incredibly professional, warm, and made me feel totally at ease from start to finish. I was a bit nervous, but her calm and confident manner really reassured me. The premises are lovely – clean, stylish, and welcoming. You can tell they take hygiene and customer care seriously. Everything was clearly explained, and the whole process was quick, smooth, and done with such precision. I couldn’t be happier with the result. I highly recommend Artmageddon, and especially Yvonne, if you’re thinking about getting a piercing. She’s amazing!”

“From a bunch of weird suggestions came the most beautiful piece of artwork, permanently placed on my thigh. Rob is an exceptionally talented guy! The studio is amazing and absolutely spotless. I won't hesitate to choose this place again, for my next tattoo.”

“Ash was absolutely fantastic, the cover up she did was unreal. She made sure I was comfortable through out.”

“Great experience! Lauren was fantastic and extremely helpful with input and ideas. Really comfortable and relaxed place to get at tattoo”

“Back in the UK (my Grandmother's hometown) for the first time in 30 years. Ryan hooked me up with a little momento. Pleasant experience from the time I walked in until the time I walked out. I'll be sure to pop in again next time I find myself in Flixton.”

“I’ve got a good few tattoos off mark now and some are nearly 2 years old, still look like new - not faded at all! I’ve just had a tattoo done today that mark drew free hand…would recommend to everybody! Last 2 pictures are the newest one. Marks shop is always spotless every time I go in, very hygienic!”

“Well overdue and well deserved 5*! After discovering Symone via instagram, she worked with me to create my dream tattoo. Throughout the process, Symone was super responsive, providing updates along the way and always kept me in the loop with her design progress and creative ideas. The studio is gorgeous, a super relaxed space where I felt comfortable and safe. Symone answered all my (probably annoying) questions and made me feel at ease the whole time. 3 day sittings later I have a gorgeous, permanent art piece and I will be back for more. Highly recommend!”

“All staff are lovely, didn’t have to wait weeks to be seen. Izzy who did our tattoos was amazing and really chatty will 100% be booking more tattoos with her, highly recommended”

“Me, and my two daughters (8&11) had our ears pierced here. Danielle was brilliant, despite the kids eyes getting wider it all went well! Quick, easy, thorough and lovely. Thank you Danielle. We will be back!”

“Amazing place, staff are lovely and kind. I've had one of my tattoos done here and few piercings. My daughter has also had her belly and upper lobes done here and there all great. I'm going back next week to get another piercing. Nice and cheap too. Highly recommend.”

“The guys here are amazing! I always feel so at ease here. Abi is fabulous at what she does! I have never been anywhere else for a tattoos! Will deffo be back in there soon!”

“I went in wanting a cover up done, I advised what I had in mind and Alex came up with a few different ideas for me to choose from. Im so pleased with my tattoo, absolutely love it!! Thank you to Ryan who was absolutely brilliant, making sure I was happy with the size and design before going ahead, and to Alex for the amazing tattoo!!”

“Had 17 tattoos so far from here and am obsessed with all of them, I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Kieran smashes my tattoos never had a problem with any of them. Always get compliments and refer people to him as I know they wouldn’t be disappointed.”

“Great place clean tidy and smart. The people there are very genuine and explained in detail the processes involved in my tattoo. Overall it was a good experience.”

“Literally one of the best artists around. Not a great pic but it's healed brilliant and the work is fabulous! If you're undecided, Lee is the artist you've been looking for.”

“My experience with the Tattoo Piercing Academy, Glasgow Course 2025 was beyond what I expected. Leah made the experience fun, informative, professional and flexible. Having AuDHD would normally cause me to have a harder time learning than some of the students, but she adapted the theory and the practical in a way that helped me understand and I feel so grateful for the intensive course which once completed, made me feel ready to continue my tattoo journey safely and professionally. I made friends for life with other tattooist , which is rare. And appreciate the lifelong support I'll receive from new friends and the Academy. I would add more stars than 5 if I could because they helped me achieve a lifelong dream of becoming a tattoo artist. I will be forever grateful for the determination of the Academy to make sure I got the most out my course. Will definitely book piercing course next. Thanks Leah, you don't realise the impact you have on students and your teaching style was excellent. Thank you, Emma”

“My daughter had her ears pierced here last week. Service was fab, kept her calm and she actually didn't even notice the needle was in her ear. Healing well with no discomfort.”

“Decided I wanted to get a tattoo dedicated to my mum and dad. When I sent my idea across via Facebook, they were very responsive. Stef did an absolutely fantastic job with my tattoo and made me feel at ease. He was great to chat with, too. Thank you so, so much for the excellent service. I will definitely be visiting again.”

“Absolutely lovely staff had good crack and very friendly people, good atmosphere playing bangers. Love my tattoo and my boyfriend loves his to couldn’t thank them enough !!”

“My first visit here for my latest Tattoo, what an amazing experience, my appointment was with artist Frank, who went through the detail of my chosen Tattoo ( our Pet Cocker Spaniel ) from start to finish this was a pleasurable experience. Would certainly recommend and definitely return for further body art. The other tattooists are friendly, their catalogue of previous work is available to view online, very experienced, clean and knowledgeable, excellent location in the heart of Tyldesley.”

“Really good shop. Great artists who were really helpful with what I wanted. Very clean bright shop, already booked my next one in.”

“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”
