Amazingly talented artist who treats her clients with respect and has a beautiful welcoming shop. Christine is one of the most genuine, warm and impressive tattooers I've had the pleasure of working with and being tattooed by. Highly recommend!

Christine has tattooed me 6 times and I have always had the absolute best experience with her. As a professional artist myself I’m amazed at how precise her line work can be and at the same time how soft her shading work can be. Besides being super focused and meticulous as an artist she also has always made it feel like spending time with a friend. The shop is clean and inviting and feels like a very private bespoke experience as opposed to the experience in bigger shops which can sometimes feel less personal(just my opinion) Christine remains my first choice for any work and i would recommend her to anyone wanting work in the GTA.

Great experience right from the start - booking a consultation was a breeze, and they were very accommodating to my sometimes-wacky schedule. Their studio is a pretty cool space, but is more importantly very clean. Their artists are talented, respectful, and are as engaging as you want/need them to be during the sessions themselves. Looking forward to doing further work with them!

Christine and her staff are artists and visionaries. Come to them with an idea and they will transform your idea into a masterpiece. They are professional, kind, fun and a welcoming space to get your first, fourth or fiftieth tattoo. I got 2 pre-pandemic, and 2 during by Christine, as well as 1 most recently by Mila. I recommend them to all my friends and family.

Christine is awesome!!

I just want to start off by saying Christine is the most talented and hard working tattoo artist that I’ve ever met. And I’ve seen some horrible ones in my life. She truly loves what she does and it shows in her work! Every tattoo I’ve gotten by her is filled with detail that makes it stand out from a distance. The amount of compliments I get on them is crazy. She clearly knows what she’s doing and makes sure the job gets done right. I’ve found my spot for tattoos and I’m definitely going back! 5/5

Christine is amazing, such a great person! She has such a light hand and is so detail oriented. Very happy with the work she is done for me.

Tech Team

Very short operating hours. Seems like they work 5 hours a day. Business must be good... You aren't open every day, but I hope you have enough work to sustain yourself within a 20 hour working week.

Kris Wilkins

By far, the best tattoo experience ever. Not only is the studio atmosphere welcoming, but the small intimate space was exceptionally clean with a very relaxed vibe and great music. I had the pleasure of working with Mila, an extremely …

I just had a tattoo done at Still Water Tattoo by Christine and am so happy with my experience! She was so lovely and sweet, and so was the booking manager, Esther! I love my new tattoo, and cannot wait to get more done by Christine. She is a very talented artist and worked with me to get me exactly what I wanted. The tattoo shop is also very clean and nice! I’m so excited about my new tattoo and can’t wait to get more!

Christine is such an amazing and meticulous artist here at Stillwater. She was beyond patient and helped answer all my questions about getting my first tattoo. Christine and her staff have been excellent in making the space feel very safe and intimate throughout the pandemic. HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR EVERYONE TO SEE CHRISTINE!

Ana Liu

Always love going to Still Water! Christine is one of the most awesome people and artist I've met. Always have fun at the studio and create amazing pieces for me. Will keep going back!

Alauna Whelan

Chris has done multiple works of body art for me including a larger custom back piece that took multiple sessions to complete. I always feel that I receive the best possible care. She has a gentle hand and is very attentive! I highly recommend Still Water for anyone seeking the highest level of professionalism and care!

Angel Jiang

Mila was my artist and she did a phenomenal job on my tattoo. She took her time and effort into making my favourite piece. Esther was also excellent at communicating with me about my appointment, the …

Best in the business. Bar none. Come correct and Christine will bless you

Words can’t describe what an amazing experience Christine provides in her shop. She’s insanely talented and provides a relaxing atmosphere with her demeanor. Her shop is super rad and filled with interesting things to look at but above all else, it is immaculately clean. This is my second tattoo from Mrs. Noble, I specifically portioned part of my vacation from Texas to come see her. If you want quality work in a clean, relaxed atmosphere she’s your lady.

I found Still Water Tattoo after a search for a tattoo studio to get some work done, I was surprised to see a studio so local to me. So I said what do I have to lose, it had been 13yrs since my last visit to a studio and I want to say it was the best experience I have every had at a tattoo studio "bar none". From the welcoming smile, attitude, honesty, laughter, realistic and accommodating, nature it was a blessing. A true artist that pays homage to here "sensei" as you will see a picture of her and the most "revered Filipino Tribal Tattoo artist in the world" hands down. Solidified for me the authenticity/dedication of the artist to her study's and skills.That being said, I now have a shiny new tattoo! :) Thank you SWT, I'll be back. Aaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrhhhhh!

Mary Badalian

Christine and her parlour are so welcoming and kind! Her artistry is beyond average... check her shop out for any tatoo work!

Paula Guerra

Amazing, friendly, talented and professional!

I have been tattooed now for about 20 years or so, here and there, never have really had any loyalty to any one artist or place. Tattoo places are usually flaky not responding to e mail or phone call requests. Being unprepared when I would arrive for the work to be done. When I stumbled across Christine, I found that she was professional and personal. She was diligent in having the art work ready and it was amazing. She does not respond to phone calls or take breaks while getting the ink in. I have been going to her for about 3 years now and never disappoints. The artwork is amazing, the experience is very different than an average tattoo shop.

amazing work. Highly recommend. The tattoo looks perfect.

One word - detail! Everything about Christine and her establishment offers the best of client experience right down to the details. I'm within progress of my tattoo from her (6 sessions in already) and I can't emphasize how happy I am with the detail of her work. She takes her time and it's well worth it. I also appreciate that we collaborated on the design, it really shows how much she prioritizes my needs/wants. The environment reflects her skills as well. It's very neat and clean, not to mention the detail of artwork pieces chosen are extremely unique and offer a very comforting and artsy/cool type of atmosphere. If you're looking for someone who will actively listen to your idea(s) and leverage their true artistic talent to conceptualize your thoughts onto paper, please look no further! And don't forget her customer service, it's friendly and personal, you're definitely not treated simply like a dollar sign or number where the artist is just trying to bang out the tattoo as fast as they can and on to the next. Christine, thank you thus far for my experience. Coming from a business field where I too, pride myself on the experience offered to clients, you really make a client feel like family! See you soon :)

An unfortunate word or two about Still Water Tattoo business owner Christine Noble. I'm not sure any other current/prospective clients of Christine would care about the character of the person with whom they do business, but if you do, and character matters to you then it's disappointing when you observe them behaving in less-than-honourable ways. Nobody is perfect, but perhaps Christine might consider driving a little less like a DB and be a little more patient when traffic isn't moving fast enough for her in that sweet S5 cabriolet. Leaning on her horn at the vehicles in front of her when they are already moving above the limit isn't constructive. We are all in a hurry to get to where we want to go, yet Christine behaves as if her time is more important than others. Aggressive and self-centred driving habits aside, I think the most disappointing part of my observations of Christine Noble was her choice to ornament her rear view mirror with a severed eagle/hawk/falcon talon. Call me over-sensitive, but decorating one's vehicle with the severed foot of an innocent animal is both tone-deaf and cruel. The type of person who would put their own vanity ahead of the life of an animal, when we all know animals such as these are hunted down senselessly for their talons/tusks/gall-bladder/etc is reprehensible and only perpetuates caveman-like attitudes from the past. It's both shocking and sad that she lacks such awareness, and I definitely don't want that negative energy transferring on to my skin. Nor would I want to support people like this with my business. Christine, if you are reading this, maybe be a little less self-important, and also think about the types of industries based in animal-cruelty that you complicity support when you make a choice to adorn your car with the talon/foot of a majestic bird-of-prey, all in the name of vanity and symbolic street cred. Not very Noble. Basically, try to be a better human being and have some humility.

AMAZING!!! I had a wonderful experience. Christine was so professional and gentle. I love my tat. I’m definitely going back. Very clean and easy as everything was set up to do online. Esther was so helpful during my booking. I definitely recommend Still Water Tattoo. Cheers!

Arlene Muyot

Great 1st experience, very welcoming and love their work! Will be back for sure.

Zack Gutfreund

While my tattoo isn't finished yet - I just had my first of multiple sessions - I wanted to say just how amazing my experience has been at Still Water Tattoo. Incredibly friendly, responsive and skilled - and a clean and comfortable space …

Laura Green

By appointment only and so worth the wait!!!! Christine is meticulous, and I will probably only ever trust my tattoos in Still Waters Hands!!

I've gotten various independent tattoos since I was a teenager. About 3-4 years ago I came across Christine through friends. I wanted to connect, and expand my tattoos to be more in balance and even. Effectively, I was looking for half/quarter sleeves. Christine looked at my tattoos and then gave me her vision and plan. I loved her ideas and we went forward with some time in the chair. Tattoos can be very painful, but Christine has a soft touch with a machine that effectively stabs you to put in ink. The atmosphere is so relaxed and private. Since the half/quarter sleeves I've been back twice more to have my children's names tattooed across my chest. The most recent being this past Wednesday and my first time in her new shop. The new location is amazing, relaxing and has a such a cool vibe. We are now working on putting together a back piece. I don't usually ever give reviews, but her expertise, talent and demeanor is what tattooing should be about. I highly recommend the experience, and Christine as a professional laid back artist. Because that is what she is, she's a talented artist that uses the human body as her canvas.
