Review of Jackals Ink Factory

Nice receptionists on the day. Complicated booking...

Nice receptionists on the day. Complicated booking process but nice emails to try to help clarify. Was exciting day for me and my friend to get first tattoos but that was tinged somewhat with unfriendly reception we got from tattooists. Session was supposed to include a consultation - this didn t really happy and I think if we weren t mature women who asserted ourselves we would have both got tattoos we didn t want (different designs, sizes, colours etc). Tattooist was moody and difficult to negotiate with - at one stage my friend asked the receptionist to speak to him as we didn t feel comfortable. When doing my tattoo, he literally slapped my foot out of the way... no chat, no discussion. Tattoo is fine - done in about ten minutes. Perfectionist in me think it could be sharper in spots. Overall we are glad we got them done but not sure recommend ink factory as pricey at 100 euros, uncommunicative tattooist (which you don t want when getting a permanent mark on your skin!) and made to feel it was only for serious tattoo people...!

Update: great and immediate response from managers in ink factory. Very happy with them and their resolution on this issue. Based on their response would be happy to use them again.
