Tucked into Merchant City, Blackheart specialises in black-and-grey realism — smooth shading, hyper-detailed work, pieces built to hold their own years down the line. JoJo Black has spent 12 years perfecting it, with neo-traditional and Japanese influence running through the studio's style. The team also handles piercing, from a first lobe to cartilage and dermal work. Open every day of the week

From idea to ink in three steps

01

Describe Your Vision

Tell us what you want. Style, placement, size — we'll take it from there.

02

See It In Blackheart's Style

We use AI to generate options in Blackheart's signature style. Iterate until it's perfect.

03

Book Your Session

Pick your artist, choose a date, and we'll send you the deposit details.

What happens once you’re booked in

Booking is the start of it, not the end.

01

A confirmation with everything on it

Your booking details and, where a deposit is due, Blackheart's payment details and your own reference — plus a booking page you can come back to any time.

02

A line straight to your artist

Send references, ask questions, work the idea through — all attached to your booking instead of buried in a DM thread.

03

Your consent form, on your phone

Medical history and your signature, done from a link before you arrive. Nothing to print, nothing to fill in on the day.

04

Reminders before the day

Two days out, and again the day before — so the appointment doesn't creep up on you.

05

Aftercare, from Blackheart

Your artist sends you their own aftercare advice once the session's done — written for the piece you actually got.

06

Your tattoos, kept together

Make an account and your designs, bookings and past pieces stay in one place — including a body map of what you've already had done.
