Some' Ink Different review
Researched for Piercing studios in Telford
Unknown
1 New Street, Telford, Shropshire, TF2 6ER · Service area: Telford
Some' Ink Different in short
Some' Ink Different is a tattoo and piercing studio on New Street in Oakengates, run by owner Rob Saxon, and our judgement is that the town record behind it stands out. Some' Ink Different moved to New Street with council grant funding for the shopfront and signage, a matter of public record. The listing shows body, ear and nose piercing plus tattooing, six days a week with the studio phone for booking.
The Google record we hold gives the studio 4.8 from 150 reviews, the second-deepest review base in this round. Our review finds the gaps are paperwork and pricing: no insurance details and no prices are published, and council registration is not stated on the listings checked. The long public record in the town is the consolation.
On services, the listing shows body, ear and nose piercing plus tattooing from New Street in Oakengates, run by owner Rob Saxon. The studio opens six days a week with Saturday hours to the afternoon, and the phone is published for booking. The listed area covers Telford, which suits Oakengates and the east of the borough.
The customer evidence we hold is a Google record of 4.8 from 150 reviews, matching the Donnington studio on headline from a deeper base. The public record of the New Street move says more than quoted client praise across the held sources. Our judgement is that the town history sits behind the rating, with the paperwork gaps sitting separately.

Questions about Some' Ink Different
Is Some' Ink Different any good?
On the evidence, yes for tattooing and piercing in Oakengates: it holds 4.8 from 150 Google reviews, covers body, ear and nose piercing under one roof, and opens six days a week with Saturday hours to the afternoon. The gaps are paperwork: no insurance detail, no prices and no stated council registration. Read the full review and its sources, then ring the studio about your piercing.
Is Some' Ink Different registered with the council?
Council registration can't be sourced from the registers, the website or the platforms checked. Telford & Wrekin requires every piercing operator and premises to register, so ask the studio how it is registered and look for the certificate on display. You can also contact the council to confirm the name is on the roll. Settle this before you agree anything.
What does Some' Ink Different charge?
No prices, rates or VAT terms are published. That means your quote does the talking: name the exact piercing and the jewellery you have in mind, and ask for the full price with the metal named. Confirm whether aftercare and any check-up sit inside the fee. Get the agreed figure before the needle comes out.
How is Some' Ink Different ranked?
It carries no score in this round: only the one studio that met all three basic requirements was assessed, and this studio sits in the researched-but-not-assessed group for want of stated council registration. Its customer record is one of the deepest in the round all the same. If you run the studio, use the Claim a listing route to send the missing detail for the next round.
Which areas does Some' Ink Different cover?
The studio works from New Street in Oakengates, and its listed area covers Telford. That suits Oakengates and the east of the borough, with six opening days including Saturday afternoon. If you travel from Wellington or the south-west, weigh the journey against the long town record. Ring the studio phone about your piercing before you travel.
How do I get a quote from Some' Ink Different?
No prices sit on the listings checked, so the call does the talking. Ring the published studio phone and name the exact piercing with the jewellery you have in mind. Ask for the full price with the metal named, and whether aftercare and any check-up sit inside the fee. Get the agreed figure before the needle comes out.
What do the reviews say about Some' Ink Different?
The held Google record reads 4.8 from 150 reviews, the second-deepest base in the round with a strong headline. The held evidence gives the headline without quoted client detail, so read a spread of recent reviews yourself, looking for visits like the one you plan. Treat the volume as genuine depth, and the missing paperwork as a separate question.
How does Some' Ink Different compare with the others in this round?
It carries no score for want of stated council registration, yet its review base runs deeper than every rival but one. The assessed studio, Hello Beautiful, wins on paperwork with stated registration, stated cover and published prices. Our judgement is that this is the town-record-against-paperwork choice. Read both cards before you decide.
