I got my first tattoo in Tribe 2 just 4 days ago, i had already been in a few months previous to get 3 piercings and knew then that i would be back. The cost for piercings is pretty average for any other place you might go but as i was getting 3 piercings at once he offered me the cheapest one for free, and said that that was pretty standard for someone getting a few things done at the same time. I was a bit silly that day as had gone along without eating anything, so i was given a handful of chocolates to ensure i didn’t pass out!(something to do with blood sugar levels when getting pierced/tattoo’d) Although i said where i wanted the piercings, he drew dots on my ears for me to chose exactly where i wanted it. The aftercare was great too, i was told exactly how to look after them and to pop in if i wanted help changing them over etc. So next came the tattoo! i was pretty nervous for this, especially as part of it goes across my ribs and the guy at the desk was like ”oooo that’s gonna nip a bit”!!(and he’s a pretty tough looking guy!) The guy doing my tattoo said the same thing too, but encouraged me to use ‘colourful’ language if it helped! It did! Although i don’t think it helped the two girls waiting after me, as desk guy said he could hear me from up stairs. oops. Ive been putting on the cream they gave me 4 times a day since and so far its not even scabbed! and it looks purty: D will definitely be going back here for my second one!

Tribe 2 Tattoo have a loyal custom and a solid reputation they have strived to build on over the years. A couple of friends had some tasteful tattoo’s done from here, and I came along for support. Alright, I came to watch as well! They were really pleased with the results — the tats were simple but looked great, and seemed to have a remarkable, seamless healing time. Although the staff have gathered an extensive back catalogue if you’re looking for inspiration, they are also willing and indeed eager to be creative with your designs. There are a lot of books lining the shelves if you’re looking to do something a bit different with your idea. It’s an inspirational environment but most importantly, the staff respect you and give you free reign over your design. Tribe isn’t merely a tattoo parlour — it’s also a piercing studio. I had a few ear piercings done in here and would definitely go back for more. The staff are soothing and made the procedure relatively painless. It was also very reasonably priced and to my knowledge the cost has not rapidly steepened over the years. Tribe 2 Tattoo is a very open, accomodating tattoo studio — none of your sleazy back alley vibe in here. But if that’s what you’re looking for, it’s also a very cool place with vibrant, friendly personalities behind the counter. If you’re looking to get pierced or inked by a reputable establishment, I’d point you in the direction of here.
