Went in for a nose piercing, everyone was really friendly, the shop was super clean and well designed. In and out with no fuss and the piercing is great and seems to be healing well. Reasonably priced as well.

Lisa Hood

Client
I popped into see the new studio as I was curious to see the new fit out. The shop is stunning and the new team are lovely. Had a cheeky Ivory Skull logo tattooed whilst there by the one and only Seany b tattoos. There isn't a style of tattoo they can't do. Great artists, friendly team. Very welcoming and not intimidating in the slightest. Recommend them 💯

Emily Spiller

Just had a great experience. Took my earrings out for a day and couldn’t get them in again. The two blokes got me fixed up in a minute free of charge and gave me some tips and all that. Definitely recommend this place, lovely vibe and nice people!

Had an amazing experience at Ivory Skull, 5 tattoos done by Sean which are all individually amazing. Everyone was so lovely. The building was great, very clean. Everyone was lovely and talkative. All of my tattoos came out perfect and were definitely fairly priced. Would highly recommend! Thankyou so much!!

Megan Tarrant

Client
I went into the shop with my daughter who was looking to change her piercing jewellery. The first thing that struck me was how clean and hygienic the shop was. The staff were so nice and friendly not like some tattoo shops that make you feel like you are wasting their time. My daughter walked out with 5 new pieces of jewellery which Shaun fitted for her, nothing was too much trouble. When finances allow I will be getting one cover up and two tattoos recoloured. A great addition to Richmond.

Chris Nic

Client
I needed to have my neck piercing removed and chose to go to Ivory Skull—I’m so glad I did. Tanya was absolutely fantastic—professional, gentle, and made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. The entire staff was friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend.

Vanessa Nakibuuka

Client
I went to my tattooist Wayne at Ivory Skull, which I have to say is the nicest tattoo studio I have ever been to. Was made to feel welcome, very clean and aesthetically pleasing. Only suggestion would be if the receptionist smiled every now and again (Joke). In all seriousness, it is the most enjoyable environment for getting tattooed I have experienced!

Summer Leach

The guys here couldn’t have been anymore welcoming and professional. By far the best place I’ve been for a tattoo and I’d definitely be coming back!! Top service all around and top quality playlist throughout. If I could rate it 6 stars, I would!

Daniel

Client
John was so helpful when I was having trouble with my previous nose stud. He kindly slotted me in last minute and took the time to help me with the piercing, replacing the stud with a new one. I really appreciated his kindness and professionalism, and I’m so happy with my new nose stud. Highly recommend!

Joanna Harrison

Client
Couldn’t recommend Ivory Skull highly enough. Been going to Sean for 2 years now and always over the moon with his work. Friendly, welcoming staff and a great atmosphere in the studio, good music as well. Very happy they’re back in Richmond, thanks again John and Sean.

Paco

Client
This was my first tattoo in a while. Andres looked after me and spent time listening and learning about my personal relationship with my late dog Charlie. Andres saw how much he meant to me and dedicated a lot of time and effort into the piece. I have gone away reminded of lots of pleasant memories and would highly recommend this experience to anybody.

Client
I work in the area and recently found these guys were re open with new management, Went to get a cover up done and a spine tattoo by Sean, he was so good with it all, completely covered and done such an amazing job with such pretty colouring than originally shown which I am most grateful for. John and Julian were really nice to, all very welcoming and friendly! 1000% recommend! Thank you for putting up with me 😊

Client
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Incredible Work – 14 Years in the Making. Yesterday, I finally had a tattoo on my ankle covered up something I’ve wanted done for over 14 years and I couldn’t be happier that I chose Ivory-Skull Tattoo Shop. The area was really uncomfortable to have worked on, and I struggled to stay still at times, but Sean was absolutely incredible throughout. His professionalism, patience, and talent put him in a league of his own. We went for a blackout-style cover-up, and the end result is nothing short of amazing. Sean’s eye for detail and calm approach made the whole experience feel manageable, even during the toughest parts. I’m genuinely so grateful this tattoo is finally done, and even more grateful it was done by someone as skilled and passionate as Sean. If you’re looking for top-tier artistry and a studio that makes you feel looked after from start to finish, Ivory-Skull is it! I Can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you John & Sean.

I found IVORY SKULL tattoos in richmond very good, friendly, and clean. My tattoo was small, and I was a bit nervous to start they talked me through what was going to happen the guy that did it had some ideas for it he made some designs on what I wanted he showed me what he had made I liked it the actual tattooing was not painful after care explained the money changed was very reasonable so I really recommend IVORY SKULL if you're thinking of getting a tattoo done as you see a 5 star rating
