Bad Apples Tattoo Emporium

Izzi is a wonderful artist she has done multiple of my tattoos and has made them my favourites. She is so good at listening and she makes sure to execute your idea exactly how pictured.

I’ve had five sessions with Squid at Bad Apples, including ongoing work across both my legs, and I keep choosing to go back. He’s my go to. He listens properly, refines the idea without overcomplicating it and makes sure the piece actually fits and flows with my body. Nothing feels rushed and the detail and linework are consistently sharp. I got my first proper artist led piece with him and it definitely raised the bar for me. The whole team is great as well. I’ve spoken with Dylan and Izzy and everyone in the shop is friendly and easy to deal with. It’s just a solid environment with consistently high quality work.

Been coming to Bad Apples Tattoos for a few years now and had well over 30 session with Squid the owner. Incredible work very professional, a true master in his craft. The shop and Squids team create a calm peaceful inviting atmosphere paired with great conversation, perfect for a first timer or return customers. With great pleasure I cannot recommend them enough.

I’ve been going to Bad Apples for over a decade now and couldn’t recommend them more strongly. Squid and Dylan have always been fantastic artists who have always genuinely cared about the outcome of the finished product. Music is on point, the shop is always clean and you’re always made to feel comfortable. 6/5 stars, would continue going for another decade.

Have been back again many times to Bad Apples and will continue to - their expertise and experience, professionalism, and their love for their work (and good music) make this an easy choice of where to get my next piece. I've brought my own ideas in, and these guys have turned them into something sick as. I've gotten so many compliments on the work I've gotten from both Squid & Dylan - highly rate them both.

Not only is he a great tattoo artist, but he’s an awesome guy! Both tattoos that Squid has done have been due to loss and couldn’t have had someone more supportive and talented!

Dylan was super friendly and accommodating throughout the process of booking and getting the tattoo. super chill guy and did an amazing job on my piece, couldn’t be happier with how it came out and can’t wait to get the next one
