Can't thank Pinky enough. 6 months later and I'm still buzzing. She did an amazing job, the whole sleeve is perfect.

What clients say about getting tattooed at our Colchester studio, from first tattoos to full sleeves.
Amazing artist!! Listens to what you want and creates masterpieces. Completely in love with my new tattoo!
Spent the day in the chair with Alan, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. The conversation was on point and the attention to detail on my tattoo is at another level, couldn't be happier!
Had a memorial tattoo done by Alan and it's insane! Definitely be back in to book the next part of my sleeve with him.
Katie's design for my tattoo was better than I could've expected, I love her art style and how versatile she is, she's so lovely too! Couldn't ask for a better experience, already thinking of booking my next soon.
I had my tattoo done by Katie. She was so lovely and welcoming and the whole experience was just like hanging out with one of your mates. The tattoo was done well and the cream she recommended to me was the best thing I've ever used on my tattoos and has helped them heal so so quickly!
I had my first two tattoos done at Black Hope today by Ellie. She was super friendly (as were all the staff there). I had a design idea and she added her own flair to it which I absolutely loved! She is very approachable, 10/10. Would definitely recommend.
Had a tattoo with Ellie yesterday and as it was my first tattoo I was a bit nervous, but Ellie was very good at ensuring everything would be fine. Whole service was excellent from the first email I sent into them to entering the door yesterday. Will definitely be back for more.
