New tattoo and piercing studio opens in Aberdeenshire

A new tattoo and piercing studio has opened its doors in Aberdeenshire.
Black Sheep Studios, which was founded by Tracy Richardson and Sarah Westwood, is now taking appointments.
The venue is based on Main Street in Turriff within a former craft shop.
In a statement on social media, the owners said: “Sarah is not from this area, so she didn’t realise how well known this building and the old proprietors were for the local community.
“We viewed the property at the start of September and fell in love with its character and what it could be for us.
“It turns out that Sarah’s first employer when she was 14 from her home town, Cruden Bay, owns it. 24 years later and we never imagined that we’d be working together. It was a huge blast from the past.
“There has been blood, sweat, tears, laughter, cuddles and all sorts during this transformation, but we cannot believe the transformation that’s taken place. Thanks to a very talented and dedicated project manager.
“Also a big thank you to everyone for your support, messages and encouragement throughout this time. It’s been awesome to see all the old names cropping up and new names appearing too!”
