Bold and Gold Art

Been going to Bold and Gold Tattoo for 10 years now, highly rate it!! Alan is a top tattoo artist along with others who work there, very friendly and always get a very fair price with unbelievable results! Couldn’t rate it high enough

After spending ages considering getting a daith piercing, and having had a fairly rough experience of lobe piercing at another Edinburgh venue, I came across Bold and Gold Art in Leith and am SO glad I decided to book in here. I felt Nikki’s passion for the art of piercing really made the experience just that - an experience - and not just a quick job. The shop feels so friendly and every step was explained really well. Time and care was taken over my jewellery choice and there was no rush to “get in and get out”. I’m not too scared by piercings but it is still slightly nerve wracking so I appreciated Nikki’s “no surprises” approach - I felt really prepared for what turned out to be just a quick nip and not all that uncomfortable. Can’t wait for my next piercing now! Thanks B&G!xx

Such a lovely experience having my piercings carried by Nikki. Her attention to detail, time taken and genuine interest in you and what you’d like to achieve is exactly why I chose to have my appointment here. Thank you so much Nikki! You really are wonderful :)

I had my nose pierced by Nikki and then a re-sizing/aftercare appointment. I cannot fault the service at all. Nikki is so talented, was so friendly, made me feel very comfortable, and is clearly very knowledgeable. The studio is beautiful and absolutely immaculate. The hygiene standards are exceptional. The jewellery selection is stunning. Nikki spent time explaining everything to me. Really just top notch service. Can’t recommend Bold and Gold enough!

Absolutely fabulous experience from booking through to the actual piercing appointment. Their lovely receptionist Rachel is very friendly and knowledgeable. The jewelry range is stunning - I love that they also work with other local businesses. I brought my mum here to add to her existing ear piercings, Nikki could not have been more lovely. She is truly passionate about her craft and full of great advice. Needless to say I also ended up leaving with new jewelry for my existing piercings.

Such a professional and friendly studio- couldn't recommend them more!I had planned to downsize my piercings- but because of lockdown I couldn't visit the studio in person. But, Nikki was incredibly helpful helping me prepare for downsizing my piercings at home. All the staff I've talked with have always been really friendly, informative and professional- and their social media accounts have a lot of useful piercing information too.I also recently ordered my first custom jewellery piece with help form Bold and Gold. Rachel was super helpful helping me choose my dream piece within my budget and listening to my desires. The whole process was really smooth and upon receiving the piece, I was beyond thrilled with it.

Got my first tattoo in 6 years here just last weekend and it was such a great experience - admittedly I was extremely anxious about it and Alana made me feel so comfortable and talked me through it. Both the enquiry and booking process was great - I went in for a quick consultation too which was quick and comfortable. Alana also sent me through a sketch beforehand to see if I was happy which I thought was really great.I go in to get it finished next week and I'm sure it will be the same great experience. If you're looking to get a tattoo go here!Specifically for COVID-19 stufff... everyone was wearing masks, social distancing was adhered to, lots of hygiene measures and it just seemed like they were all over it from start to finish.

Hands down, the best piercing studio I've been to. It goes beyond the normal standards of a good piercing studio (and those standards are definitely there!), there's also a real passion coming from the team and a commitment to excellent quality and service. Every step of the process is very deliberate and treated with the same attention, and there's a real feeling with Nikki that she works with you and your body, not on you. I can't recommend this studio enough!

Really friendly and relaxed service. Nikki put me completely at ease both about getting pierced (my first cartilage) and about the hygiene measures in the shop given the current situation. Aftercare advice was clear and easy to follow and remember; you can tell Nikki really takes pride in her work and wants to make sure it's taken care of both in and out of the shop. Definitely top of my list for any future piercings I get, would love to be tattooed here too!

If you’re looking to get a piercing/tattoo done I’d definitely give Bold & Gold a try!The studio atmosphere is always great, I’m always a little nervous before a tattoo but Alana made me feel at ease straight away.My partner also visits the studio for tattoos from Alan & Sean, which are always very impressive pieces.I also had my lip pierced here a few years back and again was made to feel straight at ease, it healed perfectly and it still love it!I don’t think I’d go anywhere else now, thank you guys for your amazing work!
