The problem with tattoos once the ink starts to flow, you're almost committed to the end of the session. I had a very simple addition to my tattoo. 5 letters, 4 numbers and a little color. My first sign that things were headed south was the half hour it took my artist to try to get his guns "operational". Once he hand drew the symbols and the ink started to flow, not only did his gun consistently malfunction but he had to go over the letters 4, not 3, not 5, but 4 times and the gap between the existing tattoo and the letters was a little less then even and that's being generous. Maybe it was his shaky hand, seriously. I should have known this wasnt going to end well when he said working in a tattoo shop was so much cleaner then when he was tattooing on kitchen tables in cockroach infested apartment a year ago. Live and learn. I asked for a green color blend from dark in the corners to bright in the middle. Feel like I need to look up the word blended in the dictionary now to make sure it doesnt mean two colors butted up against each other. The original artist there did a fine job on the original work but now the piece as a whole is a little askew. I wouldnt avoid the shop as a whole but I would make sure I'm not jumping through hoops and do a better job when I gage the artist I'm having do the work. No I wont name the artist, but I left a few clues in this review. Live and learn, the night is still young and once it heals I hope it can be fixed. read more
