Fantastic experience: Absolutely Outstanding Experience with Colin Jones at Stained Class Tattoo From the moment we walked into Stained Class Tattoo, we knew we were in great hands. Colin instantly made us feel comfortable, his calm presence, friendly humour and genuine interest and care in what we wanted set the tone for an incredible experience. Colin’s artistic vision is exceptional. We gave him free rein to enhance our design and what he created went far beyond what we could have imagined. Every detail was carefully thought out, every line deliberate and the final result is a piece of art we’ll be proud to wear for life. What really sets Colin apart is his combination of talent and empathy. He took the time to explain every step, checked in constantly to make sure we were comfortable and happy with the progress and managed to keep us both relaxed and laughing throughout. His sense of humour, calmness, and professionalism make the whole experience a pleasure from start to finish. The studio itself reflects Colin’s style perfectly clean, welcoming and full of character, just like the man himself. Beyond tattooing, his paintings are truly something to behold, you can see the same creativity, depth and attention to detail that shines through in his tattoo work. With years of experience, genuine passion for his craft and a personality that instantly puts you at ease, Colin Jones is everything you’d hope for in a tattoo artist and more. If you’re looking for top-tier artistry, a professional yet relaxed environment and a genuinely brilliant human being, look no further than Colin at Stained Class Tattoo. Highly, highly recommended.

Harry Perks Published on Google 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Recently got a tattoo off Colin, I’m absolutely obsessed with it. I’m not artistic enough to be able to portray the ideas I had in my head into a design but with Colin’s talents and creativity he was able to put my idea together. Colin was great during the tattoo process, he’s done an incredible job and the finished piece looks amazing, I will certainly be using Colin and his skills again for any and all future tattoos! Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Colin has been a prime example of a professional in his craft. Greeting me in a kind and supportive manner 3 years ago, thus creating a work of art I can proudly display. From no tattoos to 2 Japanese sleeves later I don't think I could reccomend a better artist... My pictures will speak for themselves.

Debbie Usher Published on Google 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is one of the best tattoo artists that I have been to. He is highly professional and a gentleman to go to. I have had work done with Colin as have family members. I would definitely go back to him for more work and would highly recommend him.

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a welcoming studio and a fantastic artist - then look no further. I’m currently 2 sessions in on a full sleeve and I couldn’t be happier. From the welcoming feel and calmness of Colin’s studio, to the work itself and the fantastic stories Colin has about everything - you won’t leave disappointed! Booked in for session 3 next year and I can’t wait to see where Colin takes my idea next..

Arran Tanswell Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Never had a bad experience in the many years I have been using this studio in its various locations, I trust Colin to provide a highly skilled, talent filled peice of art on me, Always great chats and always friendly. When asked about where to get a tattoo I always say, Stained Class.

Richard Jones Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been going here for the last 12yrs. The best tattoo shop I've been to. I still hear the words echoing around my head when we are 5hrs deep..."just a little bit more best mate and we can stop".ha ha. Jokes aside, you will not find a better artist or tattooist than Colin. Thanks for everything mate.

Daniel Page Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin has been amazing. Helping me and talking to me about my design. Excited for my next session and my next tattoo after that

Ushka Davies Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Colin, a truly excellent artist. From the moment I saw his work I knew I wanted to get a tattoo done by him, the style and colours totally blew me away. My first tattoo was a large cover up on my back, I was and still am so happy with it. I have had several more tattoos done by him and look forward to having more in the future. A great tattooist, great studio & a great team who welcome you in like old friends, I felt very relaxed and chilled there, good tunes & good banter. Thanks guys.

Mark Stevens Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: What a great studio. All of the staff are friendly and accommodating. And it’s a pleasure to spend any time in there. The artwork speaks for itself - and Colin who has done several pieces on me, including two full colour sleeves, is extremely talented, patient and genuine. I would personally now never go anywhere else!

Perry Rocke Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t have chose a better artist, great company during the whole process, the quality of the Japanese tattoos Colin does here at stained class are amazing! Started my second sleeve today am super happy with it! Lots of progress in 1 day , would recommend to anyone!

Fantastic experience: I have never one bad experience having a tattoo done at Stained Class Tattoo Studio .Colin is always willing to help and work with his customers to get the very best when it comes to the tattoo itself ! I would not pick anyone else to tattoo me KF

Michael Foyle Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin completed a full sleeve for me to cover up a previous tattoo that I hadn't been happy with for 27 years! So glad Colin took the project on, I loosely explained what I was after and he managed the rest. The results are amazing - the finished work exceeded my expectations. A super clean studio and a thoroughly nice bloke to spend 20+ hours with in the chair. Had a great time getting it done and some fantastic conversation to go with. Can't thank you enough Colin!

Stuart Shropshire In & Around The Shire Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin has been tattooing me for a number of years. As well as the high standards of himself the location is a pleasant environment. Always good conversation. Jeanann is brilliant. The laser removal skills are amazing. I’ve had small areas done. But I’ve seen in the flesh larger areas. Clear advice from both and at all times. Firmly recommend to everyone.

Mark Walker Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is an excellent tattoo artist,the detail and work amazing. Cleanliness of his studio is 100% , highly recommend his work

Austin Thomas Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Col is a fantastic tattoo artist,I have work that's over twenty years old and still looks as good today as it did then,also he one of the most genuine people I know.

Marcus Grimsley Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is an amazing artist, and a top bloke. I really enjoyed his company whilst he tattooed the design of Ganesh that I'd wanted for years, not only was the tattoo spot on, but Colin gave it his style, and made it look infinitely better than the black and white image I supplied. This was also a cover up, with no trace of the design below. Am looking to get another tattoo covered, very soon, and Colin is my choice. I know he will do an awesome job!!

Jasmine Tannant Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is brilliant he has designed my sleeves and back piece I couldn’t be happier he is a true artist

Stuart Williams Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Fantastic tattoo artist, amazing results. Very relaxed atmosphere can’t recommend highly enough.

Chris Jennings Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: The first time I popped into the shop was a few years ago. I had a Japanese sleeve that was done in a bedroom when I was 17. I was advised to have some laser done in a couple of areas. After a few laser sessions, the area had faded enough to cover. Colin completely re-worked and transformed my arm, it is no longer an eye sore. Very much looking forward to having more work done in future. Always class, stained class

Sarah Bransby Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! As a massive tattoo fan, both on me and others I have always appreciated the individuality of art that my main man Colin brings. He is always honest with ideas and knows exactly what works and what doesn't. I have never met an artist so passionate in his work, nor have I ever felt so comfortable in trusting someone to make permanent changes to my skin. I cannot wait until my next visit to see this incredible and very talented man.. cheers Col aka best mate..

Joe Williams Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been to Colin for all my tattoos for 15 years+ and continue to book in with him. Colins tattoo’d my back, ribs and 1 sleeve so far all in Japanese tattoos. He takes your ideas from in your minds eye of what you would like, and turns those ideas into a piece of art. No small feat! World class tattooing, chilled environment, easy going conversation, can’t recommend highly enough.

Katie Louise Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is always so professional, and always has plenty of time to talk through the design, any concerns, placement or changes you may require, which instantly puts you at ease. The studio is lovely, very comfortable and immaculately clean. Colin is such a talented artist, who I would, and do, highly recommend to anyone.

Russ D'Arcy Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Well where too start , I had one tattoo when I first met Colin in 2007 that I thought was amazing until I seen Colin’s work then I realised what a can real tattoo artist is !! I want to point out the word ARTIST as that is what he truly is , the only issue I have is I’m now running low on fresh skin for him to work on, Colin’s general tattoo work is on a level you don’t get to see every day , then you get to his Japanese work and he is one of the best in the country if not the world. He is a very patient and understanding and genuinely nice person , I would never go anywhere else.it’s a privilege that I get to showcase his work on me and it never gos short on attention where ever I go.

sarah roberts Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is an AMAZING artist!! I've been going to him for around 20 years now and won't go anywhere else! So professional, will tell you if an idea won't work (too small for the detail... placement wouldn't be right etc) and he always comes up with the best ideas (if like me you sometimes lack inspiration) I look at both Colin and his wife (who does great laser work!) as friends. I'm so happy with the work he has done so far and look forward to having more in the future ❤️ I've moved nearly 200 miles away and still would rather drive the distance to get the quality of work that Colin achieves.

Tristan Jones Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I'm a big fan of Colins work, he did a great arm sleeve which included a cover up. Hope to book in with him again sometime soon to do my other arm. Genuine, friendly and professional.

Alban Heiron Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve had several tattoos off Colin over the years. His work is second to none! The king of coverups! Seriously he’s one of the best freehand artists around. Not only this he’s very welcoming and you can have a laugh with him he does everything in his power to make you comfortable when you’re just feeling pain . Couldn’t recommend Colin highly enough!

Lisa S Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had my backpiece for about 11-12 years now and it's still crisp and fresh. Colin is an incredible artist and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. He's professional, knows his craft, is very approachable and honest. I was so nervous and shy at first but I was well at ease very quickly there. I had a cover up done and I'm super pleased with the result, I love it. For those wanting tattoo removal then you'd be honored to have JeanAnn, as she's just amazing. She's also incredibly approachable and knowledgeable. I've had many a talk with her about tattoos and learnt a ton just having a brew and a chat. I absolutely adore these two, they tell you as it is and are just so lovely. It was an honour to meet you guys, wish I lived closer so I could pop in the shop for a brew. Thank you so much Colin, JeanAnn and Stained Class Crew x

Tom Deponeo Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have had the privilege of seeing Colin on multiple occasions over the years and can confidently say I couldn't be happier with the results each and every time. Colin is a true artist, a master of his craft and will make your ideas come to life. Whether it be a new tattoo or seamlessly adding to an existing piece, Colin will put you at ease and produce fantastic works of art. Thanks again!

Jess Mid Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had my first tattoo done at Colin’s old studio 8 years ago. Since then I have come back to Colin and started my whole back piece - which is currently half complete. I’m very happy with it so far and I can’t wait to finish it. Colin and Jeanann are lovely people aswell to top it off!

Elaine Rowson Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: A clean, professional and private studio. Colin is a true artist who has always worked with me to create the perfect design every time. I wouldn’t trust anyone else and intend to have many more sessions with Colin

Ryan Tisdale Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Colin at Stained Class, a very professional artist and with a clean hygienic studio. On top of that he’s also a great bloke. I had seen many pieces of Colin’s Japanese work on people and finally decided to book in and wasn’t disappointed. His knowledge and passion for Japanese artwork is incredible and I’ll be looking forward to getting my next piece

Matt Pickering Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: 5 Stars isn't enough!! I've had multiple tattoos, from cover ups to new pieces, all done by Colin. And I wouldn't go anywhere else! Great at what he does and a top guy too.

Giles Pepper Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I met Colin many years ago at a Tattoo show. I liked his work that he was doing and soon made an appointment. The rest is history. Good friend and recommended many of my friends to travel to Colin for tattoos and everyone kept going back. The professionalism is outstanding.

emily lewis Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Amazing detail, always a pleasure coming to your studio. Super chilled out, and relaxing space. Colin understands what the tattoo needs, not what you think it should look like.

Jane Mayer Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have known Colin for 15+ years I wouldn't trust or go to anyone else for my ink / tattoos. I've just recently had a new tattoo by him. The time and dedication that Colin gives is outstanding. His professional experience and knowledge is second to none. If you're in doubt of anything he talks you through what design works best and if needs to alter he will do so it looks amazing. I'm back tomorrow 12/9/23 once again can't wait to see him / got the ink bug again. Gorgeous environment to feel relaxed and at ease. Thank you Colin x

Daisy Weaver Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is amazing ! I loved a piece of Colin’s art he had in his studio and had a rough idea of what I wanted and the placement, once we got talking about what I was thinking and my rough ideas Colin turned it into something amazing and amazing I couldn’t be happier. Colin is really professional, and makes you feel completely relaxed and at ease, his studio is really clean, immaculate and feels welcoming, I’d definitely recommend Colin and will definitely be back !

Jake Garratt Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been getting tattooed by Colin for over ten years now, he has completed large scale work and small pieces for me, each time with the same superb quality. My tattoos are all full colour and have lasted amazing well, they are all still bright and bold despite some being a decade old at this point, including cover ups. Colin's studio is always clean, tidy and a pleasure to be in. Colin is also great to chat too, and has always made me feel comfortable and welcome in the studio. Colin's passion for tattooing is obvious from the minute you start speaking with him. His work is of an incredible level and I'm extremely proud to wear some of it. I would recommend his work to anyone, especially those looking for large scale Japanese work. I look forward to getting many more pieces in the future.

Sam Thompson Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have had a large piece done by Colin on my left arm, from the hand all the way to the top of my shoulders. I reached out to him via his social media platform and communicated an idea of what I liked but would like for him to have full control of the final outcome as I always believe if the artist enjoys what he’s tattooing the work will always be 100% in fact Colin’s has been above that. The work was done out of a clean and tidy studio at his home in a very friendly environment, Colin is easy to talk to which allows for the time under his needle to breeze by. During the end of our sessions I started to feel the pain a lot more than in the earlier sessions and he recommended using cream, something I’ve never used before but allowed for me to finish. If you are looking for large Japanese work done at an affordable rate but quality not diminished I cannot recommend Colin enough.

Daniel Jackson Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had a full day with Colin where he did 7 hours of tattoo work. His work from start to finish was absolutely incredible and his attention to detail remained for the whole session. He is very skilled and very quick, top class artist

Colin Derbyshire Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: OMG what an absolute treat to be tattooed by Colin at Stained Class. He puts you first in every aspect from your idea to the completion of your tattoo, 2 sleeves in my case. Worth every penny and a lovely bunch people thanks

James Morris Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Really friendly and good service! Great quality of work really happy with how my sleeve turned out would highly recommend will definitely be going back for more!

Mike Puttick Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Colin for over 15 years and wouldn’t consider using anyone else. His artwork, designs and tattooing are second to none and Colin himself is quite frankly a legend who makes the whole experience throughly enjoyable. The studio is absolutely spotless with great tunes and regular brews on tap…..what more could you ask for. If you’re considering a tattoo then look no further. Don’t worry if you’ve got some old horror tattoos, Colin is an expert in coverups (trust me I know) and Jeanann is always on hand with laser if required. Here’s to the next 15 years.

sarah perry Published on Google 2 years ago

Ben Beasley Published on Google 2 years ago

Aaron Morgan Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had the privilege of getting a hand tattoo from him, and I am absolutely thrilled with the result. Colin's attention to detail and talent have left me with a true work of art on my hand From the moment I walked into Colin's studio, I felt at ease. His warm and friendly demeanor instantly made me comfortable, and his professionalism was evident throughout the entire process. Colin took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life with his exceptional creativity. Colin's use of color was extraordinary. The vibrant hues blended seamlessly and brought an added vibrancy to the design. The ink has held up beautifully, showcasing Colin's skillful technique and the longevity of his work. I cannot recommend Colin highly enough for anyone seeking a hand tattoo. His talent, professionalism, and genuine passion for his craft are unparalleled. If you're looking for a truly unique and exquisite hand tattoo, Colin is the artist to trust.

Fantastic experience: Wouldn’t go to anyone but Colin now, always have a really good experience getting tattoo’d by him, by far the best Japanese artist around the midlands area if not the country

Emma Wade Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Where to start, Colin came recommended and he certainly didn’t disappoint. From the get go Colin listened to everything I was after and looked at inspiration I sent over and was extremely knowledgeable and professional. Colin talked me through colours and sizing so I could get the very best longevity out of my tattoo, whilst still keeping in mind what I was after. Colin designed something which was exactly what my words described, and even after deciding to make some changes, this was no problem and Colin was incredibly patient. On the day Colin makes you feel very relaxed and at ease and ensures you’re happy at each stage. Overall Colin is just amazing, and I’ve been back since, I would recommend to anyone considering him as he’s worth his weight in gold!

Andi Jones Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Colin is one of the best tattooists out there. Super clean work and a great guy to sit all day with. I’ve been tattooed by many different people but nobody makes you feel more comfortable than Colin. The best part is you always walk away with a fantastic tattoo. Wether it’s a tattoo on a fresh piece of skin or a tricky cover up, Colin always smashes it.

Raymond Pullen Published on Google 2 years ago

His artwork is breathtaking and original, and he’s so friendly you feel totally at ease. I would never go anywhere else.

Alison Croxton-Carr Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Mr Jones took 3 old tattoos and turned my back into a one off work of art....that was 13 years ago. I am now the proud owner of a unique back piece, chest, sleeve, half sleeve and I'm not finished. The man isn't a tattooist, he's an artist. He's never done, he's a perfectionist and it shows in his work - not just on his slin work but his canvas work is mesmerising too

Russell Parry Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been tattooed by Colin numerous times over the last 15 years and will continue to visit till I'm finished... Very professional and nothing is too much trouble... Whether it's your first time or more ink for your collection... Colin is your man...

Fantastic experience: Would highly recommend and tbh wouldn't consider going anywhere else now this man is so talented and gentle. He puts you at ease very quickly and listens to your requirements making suggestions as to getting the most out of your design.

Sam Eccles Published on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I Went to Colin recently as i wanted a cover up he did for me 11 years ago bringing back to life. As before i am so happy with the outcome.

Fantastic experience: I approached Colin around 15 years ago who was happy to look at a huge cover up on my arm, since then I have had my other arm done, full chest piece and about to start a huge back project. Built up a great relationship with Colin over the years and I am over the moon with his work, style and he is always happy to listen, and advise. Made my first tattoo experience with hm a great one, and I am so very thankful for all the work over the years. The artwork is fantastic, and you're one of the best in the business in mind.

Fantastic experience: Have had the pleasure of being tattooed by Colin at stained glass over a fair few years now and don’t have a bad word or never had anything but a great experience. Studio is always immaculate and Colin is a very friendly easy going gezzer, my partner and our eldest daughter have also both been there and have nothing but great words about how Colin makes them feel comfortable,at ease and is easy going and listens to exactly what they want and guides you in the direction that you want your tattoo to go.. waffling a bit now but you get the picture, I can recommend Colin and stained glass 100%.

Fantastic experience: I've known Colin since 2010. He won’t recall when I first approached him with a rather eccentric idea for a sleeve tattoo, and he tactfully turned it down, ensuring his work represents the best of both of us. Instead of just brushing me off, he engaged in a conversation, trying to truly understand my preferences. Before I knew it, he was free-handing a design on my arm, showcasing his impeccable talent and vision. The result was a traditional, yet original Koi Carp, made up of vivid colors that have drawn compliments from many over the years. My numerous visits have always been accompanied by a welcoming environment. The studio itself is a testament to cleanliness and professionalism, while the team adds a touch of fun with their banter and occasional life-saving snacks (especially for those of us recovering from a heavy previous night). In essence, if you're considering a tattoo, I wholeheartedly recommend Colin. He's not just an artist but a true professional who cares about his craft and clients.

Fantastic experience: Have been going to Colin at Stained Class for probably getting on for 10 years now. Can’t fault his workmanship, the studio is always spotless and professionally run. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to get some work done.
