Experience the Best in Tattoo Artistry and Care
When people look for the best tattoo shops Manchester offers, they want more than skill, they want artistry, comfort, and trust. At Ashton Ink Tattoo, we bring those qualities together under one roof.
Our studio on Stamford Street in Ashton-under-Lyne serves clients from across Greater Manchester, Tameside, and Oldham who value precision, creativity, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Whether youโre getting your first tattoo or adding to your collection, our experienced artists make sure every piece reflects your story.
Why Ashton Ink Stands Out Among Manchesterโs Best Tattoo Studios
Skilled Artists, Personal Touch
Every tattoo we create is unique, designed in collaboration with you. Our artists combine technical expertise with artistic intuition to ensure every line, shade, and detail feels intentional and personal. From minimalist fine line tattoos to large-scale black and grey realism, youโll find the quality and attention to detail that define the best tattoo shops in Manchester.
Clean, Safe, and Comfortable
We take health and safety seriously. Every session at Ashton Ink follows strict hygiene protocols, from single-use needles to sterilised equipment and disposable gloves. Clients can relax knowing theyโre in a spotless, professional environment that meets and exceeds UK tattooing standards.
Friendly Service and Honest Pricing
Weโre committed to transparency and approachability. Youโll always receive clear pricing based on design size and detail, never hidden fees. Our goal is to make sure every client feels valued and informed throughout the process.
Convenient for Manchester, Tameside, and Oldham Clients
Located in Ashton-under-Lyne, Ashton Ink is ideally placed for visitors across the region. If youโre searching for a tattoo shop in Oldham but want the quality of one of the best tattoo shops Manchester has to offer, our studio is just a short drive away. Many of our repeat clients travel from Oldham, Stockport, and the city centre for our customer care and artistic expertise.
Weโre proud to represent a balance between local accessibility and big-city standards, creative, professional, and community-driven.
Your Tattoo, Your Story
At Ashton Ink, we see every tattoo as a collaboration. Our artists work with you from concept to completion, ensuring your design reflects your identity and vision. Whether itโs a small piece or a full-sleeve project, weโll take the time to get every detail right.
We also offer expert piercings, aftercare guidance, and consultations to help you plan future work confidently.
