High Hopes Tattoo

Fantastic experience: Such a great studio. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. They have a large variety of artists to choose from. Josh has now done 4 tattoos for me and he has been amazing every time. Nothing is too much trouble even when I came in with a vague idea of what I wanted to fill some space he free hand drew it and nailed it. Can’t recommend this studio enough.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend this place and highly recommend Mitch! Great artists with easygoing vibes and excellent service. Couldn’t recommend this shop enough.

Fantastic experience: Alex was amazing, was very friendly and made sure that I was comfortable the whole time and happy with the placement and design!

Fantastic experience: I got my very first tattoo from Mitchell yesterday and Oh My God wat a smooth experience he talked me through the procedure so I knew what to expect and was such a gem throughout my tattoo process. I’ll definitely come back for more soon

Fantastic experience: Reece the best will only go to him from my writing. Really nice person and does an amazing job always.

Fantastic experience: always an amazing experience gone there for so long now an has always been incredible. Been tattooed by both Reece and Chloe and they’re absolutely amazing incredible work!!!

Fantastic experience: Had the most amazing experience with Reece (LWT), not only is he an absolute sweetheart but he made me comfortable throughout the whole process. The tattoo experience itself was seamless and it healed more perfectly than any others I’ve had with previous artists. Thanks so much Reece and can’t wait for my next ones! ♥️

Fantastic experience: Had an awesome experience. The staff were were all welcoming and professional. Will be going back

Fantastic experience: Reece LWT tattoo, has been an absolute angel in disguise from the minute I first enquired about a design I had in mind. His artistic perspective is beyond amazing, as I came to him with a very rough idea as to what I wanted. We threw some ideas back and forth and he created a design that was better than I could have imagined! Ever since then he is my go to, he has a genuine passion for creating art that matches the wearer. He also has a very calming energy which is needed when you’re about to be in the chair for hours at a time. 100/10 do recommend.

Fantastic experience: suchhh a cool tattoo parlour! was a little nervous after not getting tatted for a while but felt so much calmer as soon as i stepped in the door, good vibes all around. Reece LWT Tattoo absolutely smashed it, he got my idea spot on and just made the entire session so easy and enjoyable, super easy to get along with and all of the other artists were really friendly too! definitely recommend and can’t wait to come back for my next one

Fantastic experience: The best tattoo studio in gong! I’ve had all of mine done by Reece (lwt.tattoo) and he is so knowledgeable, creative and fun to get tattooed by, he makes the experience so great every time, he’s considerate, kind and supportive, everything you could want in an artist. Every time I’m unsure of placement or sizing he knows exactly where it should go and I love all of my tattoos thanks to him. Here’s some of his work on me:

Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend High Hopes enough. I have been tattooed there for about 3 years now and every experience has been more joyful than the last. Work by OJ and Vatis shown

Fantastic experience: Don’t know the name of the man, but he’s actually really good at tattoos, highly recommend the man with allot of tattoos / and facial tattoos

Fantastic experience: Will forever be grateful for oj or habitholes, for their great advise when I wanted a walk in tattoo. They didn’t think they suited the job and gave me fantastic recommendations, which landed me a tattoo i’m very happy with. I have previously had work done at Highhopes and safe to say I’m highly satisfied.

Fantastic experience: Mitch completed my tattoo for me today & did an amazing job. Real happy with the result & will definitely be back again.

Fantastic experience: The lads here are extremely talented, super neat, the tattoo quality is amazing. I will definitely be back.

Fantastic experience: I got a tramp stamp/lower back tattoo by Chloe this afternoon, and she was SO accomodating when I starting panicking over the pain giving me complete comfort and doing an amazing job in the process. I keep coming back here and there’s a reason why. These guys are amazing!!

Fantastic experience: I sat for three tattoos with Joshua this morning who smashed them out to my amazement in just three and a bit hours (including free handing!) The colour is vibrant, lines are bold and clean and the store itself is presented beautifully. An absolute gem! Will be back! Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Mitch was very patient and thoughtful. He made the process very comfortable and explained what he was doing. This was only my second ever tattoo, so I appreciated him being so agreeable and accommodating.

Fantastic experience: The manager, Sarah, is absolutely delightful to organise with. She was super prompt and very helpful when organising a surprise voucher. I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Excellent, from minute 1 to having the finished tattoo. A truly amazing experience

Fantastic experience: I've only been in the building twice and everyone who I've encountered in this place was lovely. The exceptional Vatis gave me my latest tattoo and it's the least regrettable experience of my life.

Fantastic experience: I got my first tattoo here by Mitch. Can’t recommend mitch enough . I was so nervous, anxious, panicking etc …. He made me feel calm, relaxed and most importantly safe . And he promised me it wouldn’t hurt and he sure was right. . And it looks awesome . Overall my experience on getting my first tattoo at high hopes was beyond what I ever could have imagined. I am so blown away and I can’t wait for my next one . Saving as we speak.

Fantastic experience: I went there for tattoo removal fantastic result recommend highly

Fantastic experience: Just got a tattoo there. Mitch is a professional and friendly artist, I will come again if I am gonna do my next one.

Fantastic experience: Great studio with excellent artists, very warm and welcoming vibe with the quality to match. Thanks fam

Fantastic experience: Love love love my tatts

Fantastic experience: Wicked tattoo parlour with seriously talented artists. Wicks worked on my partner for several hours producing some gorgeous work and I got to hang on the comfy couches. Top place, highly recommend.

Positive experience: Great artists and great styles. Very happy with my tattoo. However PLEASE make it clear you are a cash only business BEFORE the end of a tattoo. It is extremely stressful for a lot of people who then have to try and work things out and it looks super dodgy.

Fantastic experience: Just had my two tattoos done by Josh who was very pprofessional and past my expectations of a great job. Listened to what I wanted and I was extremely happy and excited with my new ink.....other staff were also very polite and professional. I'd be going back definitely.

Fantastic experience: This is by far the best tattoo place I’ve been to! My sister and I were tattooed by Riley and he did some beautiful fine line work for us. We loved the setup of the business, everyone was talking to each other and to us the whole time - making it a really comfortable and warm environment to be tattooed in. We will definitely be back!!

Fantastic experience: The vibe is so positive and welcoming. I got my tatoo done today and I am glad I choose “ High Hopes”. Sarah was so welcoming and my tatoo artist was awesome too. Yes, It is the place with best service and awesome artists

Fantastic experience: I’ve now been tattooed on two seperate occasions both by Riley and Josh and not only do I LOVE the finished product but thoroughly enjoyed their company, felt comfortable and relaxed the entire time. And the cherry on top was - I wasn’t really having the best week, and Josh semi irrelevantly quoted van wilder to me - about how worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do but won’t get you anywhere sounds silly but it was really appropriately timed. Might start seeing you guys more instead of my therapist. Thankyou so much for your kindness, beautiful space and excellent tattoos!

Fantastic experience: The atmosphere of this tattoo parlour is extremely welcoming. The shop itself has so much character, each artists corner looks personal and well thought out. You’ll never get bored as you get your tattoo since everyone is friendly, talkative and there is so much art on the walls to look at. I see Josh for my tattoos, his work is always amazing. Often times I’m not sure where I want my next piece of art, but he always offers his advice on the best placement for my tattoo. I’m looking forward to receiving my future tattoos from here.

Fantastic experience: Awesome shop. Super tidy with great vibes. All very talented artists. I’ve been tattooed by Josh multiple times and it’s always been a good experience, will be back soon!

Fantastic experience: Super professional, quality service and amazing tattoos.

Fantastic experience: Its the most comfortable and welcoming tattoo studio I've ever experienced. All the artists are super chill and easy to work with, i have unlimited trust in the opinions and ideas they chuck out. Sarah is always so comforting to have around, especially if you have a bit of a dizzy spell after your ink. She runs that place smoother than butter! #flawless

Fantastic experience: Absolutely unreal shop, artists and tattoos. Have been a bunch of times now and everyone is super friendly and professional which makes for a great experience
