Mystic Lounge Tattoo & Piercing Studio Reading

Fantastic experience: Really lovely experience with Melanie Morningstar. She was calm, friendly, and made me feel comfortable straight away, which helped a lot during the appointment. She listened carefully to what I wanted and the tattoo turned out exactly how I hoped — the fine line work is clean and delicate, and I’m genuinely so happy with it. Everything felt professional, relaxed, and well organised, and the studio was clean and welcoming. I absolutely love my tattoo and would definitely recommend Melanie if you’re looking for someone talented who creates a calm, easy experience from start to finish.

Fantastic experience: Pia designed and did my first tattoo ever, had an incredibly positive experience and will happily go again soon

Fantastic experience: Had an amazing experience at Mystic Lounge Tattoo. The piercing placement was spot on and after the geometric tattoo came out so clean, perfect symmetry. Super professional studio, friendly team, and everything felt hygienic and calm. Couldn’t be happier, highly recommend! I also reccomended my sister and she had a great tattoo.

Fantastic experience: Mirella was so nice and welcoming. She made me feel so comfortable as I was getting my first tooth gem and explained clearly when I could eat and brush my teeth again, amazing customer service from both the girls opening the store today, I didn't catch the other girl's name but she had amazing red hair. I will be coming back!

Negative experience: when getting some jewellery put back in here, i worried for the risk of infection. i brought my own jewellery as i had accidentally caught my nose piercing and pulled it out. came here to get it back in. they didnt clean my jewellery or the piercing hole and just put the taper through. no questions about it either beforehand. so won’t be coming back here, worry to think how piercings go.

Fantastic experience: I went to get a septum piercing and it was a very comfortable, relatively quick experience. I loved the aesthetic of the studio and I appreciated the detailed instructions on how to care for the piercing. I am very satisfied!

Fantastic experience: Ingrid was such a lovely, knowledgable piercer that really knows what she’s doing. She was very friendly and completely put me at ease, and guided me through the whole procedure, was great at communicating aftercare and just in general a lovely person. She even guided my breathing throughout the procedure as the microdermal piercing process is a little longer than most standard piercings. The piercings themselves are so pretty and super chuffed with the outcome! The shop has a great variety of high quality jewellery and in general a great vibe. Would recommend the shop and Ingrid especially!

Fantastic experience: Mirella did me and my boyfriends piercings and it was a great experience, she is very knowledgeable and talks you through the whole process. I highly recommend! Thankyou x

Fantastic experience: Very friendly, welcoming shop. Quick and easy walk-in appointment for piercing

Fantastic experience: I got my rook and lobe piercings done by Aliyah :)) It was a nice experience making sure I was comfortable during the entire service.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful! The piercer (Aliyah) was so supportive, sterilised everything and was so nice and provided us with all the relevant information surrounding the piercing aftercare.

Fantastic experience: I am over the moon with my tattoo. I wanted to cover up some scars which hold horrible moments in my lifetime. Design artist Abhishek, designed and executed the tattoo beautifully and I am really happy and grateful. I’m now able to look at my arm and feel powerful again. Thank You!!

Fantastic experience: Piercers were all lovely and helped me when I was extremely nervous. Talked me through the procedure and made sure to let me know how to clean it. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Amazing service. Everyone is professional, great customer service. I had my tattoo done by Zamyang. Recommend this place. Very happy Thank you Zamyang & team.

Fantastic experience: I walked in and the service was amazing all the workers were really kind and good at answering my questions I’ve went there for a while now for piercings and they have always been great I definitely recommend

Negative experience: Had a third eat piercing recently and was happy with the service until one of the earrings came out 6 days later - luckily I had both earring and back which I took with me. Unfortunately, my second visit was nothing like the first, I was hurried downstairs, had my earring put back in and felt extremely uncomfortable, especially as I was asked for a payment of £8. If that wasn't enough, the same earring came out in the early hours of this morning . Never had this issue before and because of the way I felt, I went elsewhere to have my ear sorted this morning - which wE a much nicer experience

Fantastic experience: I had a lovely experience getting my daith pierced here! My friend and I wanted to see if walk-ins were available and were greeted kindly and talked through piercing aftercare after getting our piercings done. The piercers were both so welcoming and professional and I recommend coming to get your piercings here.

Fantastic experience: My wife had a tattoo done by Melanie and she did a fantastic job, professional and well knowledgable. The whole team was welcoming. Highly recommended

Negative experience: Went here to get my nipple pierced and only found out later that it was pierced incorrectly with the wrong placement and with a bar far too short. It started rejecting and became infected so had to go to another piercer to get it removed. Unhappy!

Positive experience: Came in for a walk in tattoo. Ladies were really nice and were able to book me in for a simple custom design. The tattoo turned out to be soo cute!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been to see Pia a few times now to get hand and some other fine line tattoos. She’s absolutely fantastic. Incredibly professional and friendly. Really good with bringing ideas to life too! Will definitely book back in to see her again!!!

Fantastic experience: Went to Mystic Lounge today hoping to get a new tattoo on my arm. Pia greeted me and told me they could help me with my request. I showed them the design and they drew up the design very accurately and quickly.

Fantastic experience: Got my tattoo done my Pia and she was so gentle with it. I love how she came up with a cute design to fix one of my old tattoo.

Fantastic experience: We popped into Mystic Lounge to enquire about an eyebrow pricing change for my partner, and ended up finding the cutest flash art pieces of two individual candles that we both fell in love with. We decided to get them done straight away, and Pia absolutely nailed it! This is now my second tattoo with Pia, and as someone with a very low pain threshold, I can honestly say she’s amazing. She’s gentle, talented, and has such a calming energy that makes the whole experience enjoyable. Couldn’t recommend her enough!

Fantastic experience: Went in to Mystic for a beautiful realism portrait of pinhead on my calf by Melanie its now my new favourite tattoo! the studio is so friendly and comfortable Thank you so much!

Negative experience: Left very unhappy, terrible tattoo, the artist was unable to corect the tattoo, asked him to slightly change it he made it worse, over priced chargme 150£ for small tattoo that took 45min , will never go back , i regret i went

Negative experience: Got a “helix” piercing done here about 3 weeks ago, but turns out it was pierced wrong. The placement is not correct. Not sure if it will heal right and just upset that I paid for something to only have it pierced wrong! Also the piercer who did it didn’t seem very welcoming at all, which is a bit upsetting knowing I’m trusting you to pierce me.

Fantastic experience: Had my nose piercing done by Aaliyah. It was quick and easy, she was very professional and clean and gave me full instructions and time. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Fantastic experience: Had a full day session with Prashant getting my elbow done, the whole process who planning and getting designs was amazing. The image I had in my head really came to life and looked amazing once completed. I’m really happy with my tattoo and will definitely come back again.

She also explained aftercare very thoroughly. Thank you! I would recommend to anyone who would like a piercing whether it is your first one or an addition.

Fantastic experience: I went to mystic lounge to get a butterfly tooth gem. Mírela applied my tooth gem amazingly, she was really kind and explained all the aftercare. I love it sooo much. I highly recommend to get your tooth gem with Mírela.

Fantastic experience: I went in for a walk in appointment this tuesday and everyone working downstairs was so helpful! I struggle with fainting and they ensured i was comfortable and calm both before and after my piercing. Thank you so much

Fantastic experience: Spent 6 amazing hours with Prasant who did an exceptional cover up on a tattoo I had done 40 years ago. Very happy with the result-you cannot even find what was there before. Everyone there is really friendly. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Amazing service! I asked a few questions on WhatsApp as the phone was busy and I got quick and informative responses. The piercer (aliyah) was so lovely especially since I fainted after having my navel done and she gave me some sweets and sat with me whilst clearly explaining the recovery process. Definitely recommend hope the healing process is quick, thanks mystic

Fantastic experience: Got my ear lobes pierced by Mirella yesterday, who was so lovely and did an amazing job! Overall, excellent service and worth the money! Would definitely recommend and would love to come again soon! :)

Fantastic experience: Today I walked-in to mystic and was tattooed by Kaleigh - she did phenomenal work. 15cm roughly in size and was done in 2.5 hours. Her attention to detail was amazing and her character was exceptional - I highly recommend speaking with her and booking her for your next piece!

Positive experience: Very friendly and helpful, clean and professional, just make sure you agree a price before having a tattoo, this is the smallest and by far the most expensive one I have ever had, twice the price for what it should of been, for under an hour of tattooing.

Fantastic experience: Today I walked in for a double lobe piercing (my seconds) and was seen by Mirella. I have a pretty bad needle phobia and asked if I could have a second piercer to do one of my ears at the same time and that was made possible. Chatting with Mirella beforehand greatly put me at ease and once Ingrid joined us we got on with the piercings. I was so pleased with the outcome and the experience I had today, very lovely ladies!! Thanks again

Fantastic experience: Mystic lounge is a lovely place to get tattooed! I have got over 20 tattoos from them now. Pia the colour artist is my favourite and they have done most of my tattoos. I would never go anywhere else. The owner Jackamo is lovely! Always really welcoming. It’s the best place in Reading to get tattooed!

Negative experience: We visited Mystic Lounge Tattoo and Piercing Studio Reading, as they did a fantastic job piercing my childs tragus (last year). We returned last week to get my childs nose pierced which was done professionally and to our expectations. However, last night the post of the stud in my childs nose just broke. We returned to Mystic Lounge Tattoo and Piercing Studio this morning who informed us that it is not broken and that we should have been notified when we first visited for the nose piercing that we need to rotate the stud part of the nose stud, as it can become loose. We were not notified of this during our initial visit nor were we provided with any information to do so. We were charged additional monies for a faulty stud. Not helpful or great customer experience! Given 2 stars as the situation is not terrible but it does fall short of expectations.

Fantastic experience: really friendly, got my snakebites done here, the lady that pierced me let me have a break in between the piercings and didnt rush me, would definitely go again for any more piercings or tattoos :)

Fantastic experience: I have been wanting to get a tattoo for some time and decided to just walk in and see what would happen. I spoke with Pia who really put me at ease. The service was amazing and what a lovely girl. Thanks

Fantastic experience: best piercers! they have very reasonable prices and the piercers do it so fast there’s no time for it to hurt! i’ve gotten my nose, my conch, helix and rook here!

Fantastic experience: Went in for a walk in tattoo and Pia was the most amazing artist. Helped me make a stencil and was overall such a great and positive experience. Such high quality at an amazing price and genuinely made me feel so comfortable with getting difference sizes and moving stencils. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Fantastic experience: My daughter has had her septum and eyebrow pierced here this year and has a great experience. Aliyah (I hope I’m spelling that correctly) was great and made her feel really comfortable. We’ve recommended the studio to lots of people in Oxford as it’s worth the trip.

Fantastic experience: Going to a new studio is always a bit of a risk and nerve wracking, but this place was incredible. Lovely welcoming staff, great decor, fast and high quality at a very reasonable price. Cannot fault it at all, the design was perfectly executed including some adhoc adjustments. Will absolutely be coming back for more tattoos here.

Fantastic experience: I came today and got my second lobes, my helix and tragus pierced. Great service, very quick did not feel a thing! I was also provided with detailed advice for aftercare. I will be back

Fantastic experience: Just been in for a double nose piercing with Aliyah, she was so great and calming even though I was so nervous when I went in, and was very knowledgeable and took the time to explain the whole process to me. Will absolutely go back for future piercings and would highly recommend especially if it’s your first time getting a proper piercing

Fantastic experience: Ingrid did my piercing and she was kind and professional. It was done very quickly and with precision. It was in the perfect spot and everything.

Fantastic experience: Went in for a spur of the moment walk-in with some friends and we were all quickly accommodated! Good service and tattoos

Fantastic experience: I've got a few piercings done here now. Get place with super lovely staff. I would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable piercer.

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience, lovely piercer. I was pierced by Mirella and she was amazing. Very quick piercing, kind and fun!

Fantastic experience: I went there for my first tattoo and the service is amazing. I got Pia as my artist and they were amazing. Very nice decor as well. I am definitely coming back here for more :)

Fantastic experience: I arrived just before my appointment and was seen right away. I can't recall my piercers name but she was very kind through the process. She marked me up and checked to see if i was happy with it, i wasn't and from there altered to what i wanted. through the process she was informing me of what she was doing the whole time. Since i got a double helix i was offered a break but i didn't want one but the offer was nice and polite. The piercer even checked if i had the anatomy for other piercings i'm looking to get on my ear. i shall be back for those. Although the piercing room isn't private but is serperate to the tattoo section. The area looked clean. overall, positive experience.

Fantastic experience: Ingrid was amazing!! She made me feel so at ease and the piercing was so easy to do!! Defo recommend!! Xx

Fantastic experience: Visit Mystic Lounge yesterday, a great experience, the team were amazing. My son felt very comfortable and each process for the piercing was explained in detail and he felt comfortable about asking questions. The facility was clean and everything was sanitised. The after care for his piercings was explained in great detail. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience, we will be back.

Fantastic experience: I had my lip piercing today and everything went more than perfect! Mirella was lovely and I fast when she did my piercing

Fantastic experience: Had a double helix piercing done on my lunch break, Ingrid was super professional and helpful and talked me through the entire process, also loved the selection of jewellery! Will be returning

Fantastic experience: Great service. My first peircing and I didn't feel anything. They were very sweet and made it so much better as an experience

Fantastic experience: absolutely love this place, i always always get my piercings done here as it’s an affordable and friendly place for me. i recently turned 18 and decided to get a tattoo. the staff were so friendly and although i cannot remember my tattooist name she was very patient and kind. i told her it was my first tattoo and i was slightly worried and she was calm with me and explained each step. i have been coming here for years for piercings and i definitely recommend this place to anyone and everyone

Fantastic experience: I got my eyebrow pierced with Mirella. She was very kind and patient and I am really happy with my piercing. Had a lovely experience and would recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have been here before a few years ago and thought to come here again and get a new piercing - they are always so quick and always feels almost pain free. Highly recommend Ingrid!

Fantastic experience: A great experience, I had a rook and helix ear piercing from Mirella and she was amazing! I would highly recommend their service.

Fantastic experience: I was a walk in towards the end of the day and welcomed downstairs to the studio and got my double helix piercing. I loved the experience and was always double checked on by Mirella, my piercer. I will definitely be back for more.
