    and

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055864596

    from what I've gleamed through these threads they're thought of as profecient in tattoo albeit slightly rude (though not profecient enough to warrant "artistic" rudeness)

    Yeah the studio is nice, probably the nicest in Dublin, Artcore is also a nice studio the rest of the studios are pretty boring / dingy IMO.
    I popped in there once for a snoop and found the staff to be friendly, other peoples experiences do differ however.

    I haven't been but a mate of mine swears by them. Seems like a nice shop and decent work. I seem to remember them being very expensive for what they produced though but I haven't checked lately.

    They were charging €110 an hour anyway, most of it is good work, but there's amazing artists charging that sorta money elsewhere.

    Never been there for a tattoo, but got pierced there and found the guy who pierced me to be a gent. Have heard mixed reviews about the level of customer service amongst the artists though.

    They seem to get some pretty incredible guest artists in every now and again.

    I wouldnt be a fan myself, over priced average artists in my opinion riding on the back of the name and the promise of a tv show which never came to be. Theres much better in Dublin and Ireland, some cheaper some dearer but better than any the artists in there.


    As for the studio yeh its is nice and clean but theres plenty of nice clean studios in Dublin, Zulu and Skin City are two of which ive had experience with.

    Their female piercer has absolutely no business piercing, having seen what she's done to some friends of mine, I'd rather use an old safety pin on myself than let her near me.

    Artists seem talented but are definitely overcharging for their work. Have heard they're rude as many have said but I can't confirm it.

    I can only speak from personal experience, but their piercer, dani I think, is amazing, she's done loads of piercings on me, quite a few dermals, and they've all been absolutely perfect. You often get people bitching about a piercer/studio just because they don't look after their piercings properly - that's not the piercers fault!! All mine have healed brilliantly
