Private studio, Northern Quarter
Custom tattoos,
made to last.
Black Lark is a private studio on Hilton Street. Three artists, custom work only, and a free consultation before every project.
Custom work only
No flash walls. Every piece is drawn for you, from your idea.
Consultation first
Free and no pressure. Every project starts with a talk about your idea.
Licensed and 18 plus
Licensed by Manchester City Council. Vegan inks on request.
The studio
Dark, quiet and yours for the session
Black Lark sits in a private unit in the Northern Quarter. No walk-in bustle, no shared noise. When you book, the room is yours and the artist's full attention is on your piece.
We keep it simple. You bring an idea, we draw it, and we tattoo it clean. Our healed work is the best advert we have, so take your time looking through it.
