Hype Tattoo Studio: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Best Place For Tattoos Works Of Art.
Fantastic experience: Brilliant work done here. Had my first two tattoos done here by Jay (done my arm) and John (done my chest), both lovely and welcoming artists. Would 100% reccomend.
Fantastic experience: Been here for about ninety percent of my tattoos the lads are proper canny and welcoming great service great artists and amazing vibes
Fantastic experience: Great staff, skilled and accommodating. Steve is my guy and he is spot on. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: My first tattoo was behind my ear and i really didn't have a clue and went back to get it added to. John was fine with that and did a brilliant job of sorting it. I then went back a few months later and john did a fantastic tattoo of a tiger on my back. It's amazing. I was so chilled, i almost dozed off! It was so relaxing! Will definitely be back for another.
Fantastic experience: She made me feel so secure about getting the piercing and did it very professionally would recommend this place been 3 times
Fantastic experience: I had an amazing experience here. I went with a design hoping to get a walk in, but fully prepared to book an appointment, and they were able to fit me in almost immediately with John. He was lovely and really good checking in with me about colours and pain level and stuff. Had a fun chat while getting my tattoo too. It looks amazing, and I'm really happy with it. He also had no issues working over a scar or two on my arm where the design was, which is even better, since that was a worry of mine.
Fantastic experience: AHHH! Today i got pierced by Jade White and she was the most lovely, gentle person i’ve ever met!! The septum and snakebites were so painless i ABSOLUTELY will be going back to get both piercings and tattoos in the future. So much love!!! <3

Fantastic experience: Got a piercing done by jade, cannot recommend her more she was so lovely and comforting I was really nervous and she just made my experience so nice and calm, love my piercings so much as well.
Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend jade for your piercings she has been absolutely amazing went through everything I needed to know, made me feel very comfortable and gave her Instagram for me to message at any time I have had multiple questions and she has answered them all very quickly. Can honestly say I have never been happier with a piercer! She has went above and beyond and is continuing to do so when I was in weeks ago. She has offered for me to go down any time if I need her to have a look at it. Thank you jade! I will be requesting her for every piercing I get

Fantastic experience: I went in today because my tragus, conch and rook piercings were tarnished and looked awful, jade helped me find the best jewerelly place and then placed them in, i got to admit it looks fantastic and my rook piercing was so thin that it seemed impossible to get any other jewerelly in, but she managed to get a lovely thicker hoop in, she was so funny and makes you feel welcome, i would defiently recommend her as i walked in quite upset and left with a smile on my face , couldn’t be happier and can’t wait to be back.
Fantastic experience: Was a great experience and staff were amazing, Cal did a fantastic job was absolutely over the moon! Looking forward to getting more here in the future!
Negative experience: Very disappointed with the service I received! John turned up 25 mins late and then immediately went outside and smoked for a further 20 minutes without even speaking to me. Turned out his iPad wasn’t even charged up… the tattoo I received was nothing like what I asked for and then when I tried to rebook to get it sorted out John kept saying he wasn’t working this week only for Hype to post on Instagram that John had time slots available for the week… overall pathetic customer service and I would avoid these guys to be honest, gone right down hill it seems
Fantastic experience: My boyfriend and I got tattoos from Jay, we're both really happy with his work. All the artists/staff were friendly. Definitely recommend and we will both no doubt be booking back in!
Thank you so much x

Thank you so much
Fantastic experience: Went in on the off chance they could fit me in this week. Was lucky that Steven had had a cancellation and booked me in the next day. He was great and we talked through a cover up and things that would need to be considered and gave great advice. During the session the vibe was great, the conversation top notch and he seemed genuinely happy with his work (which he wanted to take his time on rather than rush). Would definitely go back for future tattoos. Thanks!
Thanks for the kind words and hope you’re forever happy with your tattoo you revived today :)
Fantastic experience: Great service and really friendly people who work here.
Fantastic experience: i couldn’t recommend this place enough, most hygienic tattoo shop i’ve been in and had 5 tattoos done in professional standards that have healed lovely.
Hello Sarah we are very glad you enjoy our studio and have such kind words to say about it, we really appreciate it, hope to see you again soon
Fantastic experience: I had a beautiful arm tattoo done and I cannot thank the workers there enough. They are super kind and friendly. For my first tattoo I was super nervous, but soon enough I felt calm and i was in a very supportive environment. Thankyou John for this tattoo you've really changed my life for the better. I really recommend this place.
Fantastic experience: I adore this place. I've had several of my tatoos done here from two of the different artists, and had both my lip, septum and ears pierced at this shop. Every time has been a overwhelmingly positive experience, friendly artists with amazing line work and shading. I've been made to feel nothing but comfortable at this shop as an Autistic person. If you're looking for great tatoos at a reasonable price go here.
Fantastic experience: Love the place
Fantastic experience: Fantastic and very professional.
Fantastic experience: BEST IN TOON
Fantastic experience: Great staff that know the trade inside and out. Have had tattoos and piercings done. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Recommend without a doubt. Snapped my septum jewellery the night before a wedding. Make a frantic dash to Hype 10 mins before the wedding starts, buy a (very reasonably priced) septum ring. Thanks to inhumanly long nails, I proceeded to jab it desperately into the piercing without my success, finally thread it and thankfully one of their piercers offered to help me, 0.05 seconds and all sorted. Absolutely lush, thanks so much guys!
Fantastic experience: Great bunch of tatto artists and very reasonable price's
Negative experience: Rude from the moment we came in. Piercing seemed unprofessional. Had my face yanked about with the clamps and when the needle was through. Wouldn’t recommend at all.
Fantastic experience: I've had 4 of my piercings done here and the piercer is so friendly and polite! The studio is lovely and clean and you always feel at ease. I've never had a tattoo done here however I have only heard good things. All the staff are friendly and professional. I always recommend this place to people wanting piercings :)
Positive experience: Very friendly, professional staff, who managed to fit us in with late notice. Only downside is needed a little more information about after care, but I should have have asked.
Fantastic experience: Needed a new ball for my daith piercing bar, staff really helpful and was really cheap. Been a customer of Hype for over 20 years now and will always return for any new ink or piercings.
Fantastic experience: Stevie did my tattoos, and put my ashes of my cats in the ink, he was very sympathetic and understanding, he's a great friendly bloke, makes you feel totally at ease, recommended him to a few mates,, my boss has been also!!! Want to get more!!!!
Fantastic experience: Can't recommend this place enough. I recently got a tattoo done by Jay and I love it
Fantastic experience: Went for a double helix piercing last week. There was great service- all done in 10 minutes!
Fantastic experience: Great place very friendly and helpful awesome artists
Fantastic experience: I love going to Hype Tattoo. Steve has created 3 tattoos for me now and I love them all. He is so professional and works so hard but at the same time he’s so chatty and friendly and made me feel at ease every time. The whole studio is Covid safe but Steve always makes sure you can see him setting up and sanitising for a bit of extra security. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place.
Fantastic experience: We love Steve! Me and my friend came in to get small cute matching tattoos & ended up leaving with an extra tatt and a touch up! Steve was our tattooist and he was really attentive and lovely, dead chatty and friendly too! Not to mention all of the staff were mint, so welcoming! The studio was adhering to all Covid measures of course, so we felt safe there :) Steve definitely has gained two more clients! Great experience and highly recommend it here!!!x
Fantastic experience: Came in to a great clean covid safe shop , i had nicola pierce my septum and was made to feel at ease the whole time , very professional.
Aw thank you Mark. lovely to hear you were looked after in the studio. hopefully see you again for another piercing.
Fantastic experience: Best tattoo shop x
Fantastic experience: Really nice place to visit. Staff are extremely helpful and friendly.
Fantastic experience: Great staff
Fantastic experience: I was most impressed of the tattoist who did my tattoo he was very professional at his job and kept me calm , I would definitely go back if I get another tattoo.
Fantastic experience: Great studio with a very friendly atmosphere. I get all my tattoos done by Cal and have been going here for years now. The staff always make customers feel at ease. Definitely recommend it for anyone getting a first tattoo
Negative experience: Rude staff. Poor tattooist, used wrong sized needle incurring a faded tattoo needing re-work 7 days later a more reputable studio. Not recommended at all! See pics. Hype Then Re-work
Fantastic experience: This is a cracking shop for tattoos, everyone is super friendly and were happy to answer any (stupid!) questions I had. 4 of my 5 tattoos were done here, by 3 of the artists, and you can see which is the odd one out. The quality of the work from here is just lightyears ahead. Can't recommend the place enough!
Fantastic experience: This place is the best tattoo shop I've found. Staff are dead friendly and all super talented. The place is always spotless, and you can tell they take their hygiene seriously! Got a tattoo idea in your head? No problem - they'll sit with you and talk/sketch it out until you've got an amazing design ready to go!
Fantastic experience: Good atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: Lovely place, awesome people and the tatoo is amazing! Definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: Awesome group of people, easy to be around and top quality tattooing 10/10 would be tortured again
Fantastic experience: I went in for an industrial piercing but unfortunately was not able to get it due to the high risk of embedding. Despite this the piercist was lovely and well informed. And I would recommend this studio
Fantastic experience: I've always loved this place and the service that I recieve, of the 11 piercings I've got, 10 were pierced at hype and ive never had an issue with any of them (the same cant be said for no11 but I can safely say that I won't be making the mistake of going to a different piercer ever again). The staff here are always lovely!
Negative experience: Had a tattoo booked but was assaulted the night before and ended up with a laceration across my face needing 10 stitches. Explained this to the receptionist and was told that was unfortunate and would lose the £50 I had paid and couldn't move it to another day. I understand they have a cancellation process but this woman lacked any sort of compassion and would never ever go there. Going to rebook my tattoo when I'm better at another studio as I personally wouldn't want to get a permanent thing on my body from someone who could not care about someone's wellbeing.
Hi there,
I'm sorry you feel that way but unfortunately we have policy in place to protect our artists. We wish you a speedy recovery and all the best
Many thanks
Positive experience: Me and my bestie had a spare of the moment tattoo here while visiting Newcastle.. Nothing exciting but the artist was cool and friendly and the place seemed clean and pleasant
Positive experience: Really good place, friendly and talented staff, make you feel at ease.
Fantastic experience: Nice place, awsome staff and awsome tatto work. For my first tatto its awsome and would recomend it to people good price.
Positive experience: Although I haven't been to this lovely from my piercing before , my friend recommended it to me and said nothing but great things about the place . I went in and asked for my navel done but the person who normal would do the piercing is unfortunately on holiday and comes back on the Monday . The man at the desk seems more than lovely and a very happy and welcoming man . Just to say I went to PUREINK to get navel done as I wanted it done for a party over the weekend( and the person wasn't in at hype piercings ) , and it was the worse possible piercing I got !!! it was wonky and not deep enough and the costomer services was horrid , I don't recommend that place at all although next time I will be coming to hype piercing .
Fantastic experience: I had both nipples pierced here, and I was so nervous going in, especially being by myself. The lady who pierced them for me was so nice and made me feel much more relaxed. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend.
Negative experience: Had a trainee do my tattoo without being told. Parts he went too deep and parts he went too shallow of a writing tattoo. A couple years on the letters have now spread and words are unreadable. I now have a tattoo stuck on me that is illegible. Will NEVER come here again, and NEVER recommend them
