Jose was my guy. He was great. He looked at the design that I wanted and when I told him I wanted it on my hand between thumb and pointer finger he let me know that with a lot of hand washing it would fade quicker. He helped me choose another suitable location on my lower arm and I was very pleased with that spot We chatted while he worked, and it barely hurt at all. I had not come prepared with cash because I forgot about it. They were very kind and we discussed if I could try to get cash back from the store up the street or use their ATM. Neither of those options worked and they very nicely allowed me to pay by credit card which they do not usually do. I told them they could charge me whatever extra fees there were associated with using a card and they said not to worry about it. Great experience. Highly recommend. When I come back again to visit I'll come see Jose to add to my piece.

If you're a tattoo person, getting work done by Enya (@enyaaliceink) while in Dublin should be a…read morehigh priority on your to-do list. Note that Enya doesn't take walk-ins, so scheduling an appointment in advance is a must. Enya is: Patient - Despite having this appointment on the books for months, I still didn't know what I wanted or where I wanted it, even by the time I walked in the door. Enya was so kind & accommodating. We tried different stencils in different placements & carefully narrowed down the design together. Kind - I was immediately put at ease in the shop. Enya, Francesca, (the artist with the station adjacent to Enya's) & all of the other folks in the studio were so welcoming & friendly. Funny - I was hooting & hollering quite a bit during the tattoo process. The time flew by. I felt like I made a few friends. Talented - It came as no surprise to me that Enya is a graduate of one of the top art schools in the country. She has an incredible imagination & wittingly executes her ideas on paper & on skin. I'm honored to have her artwork on my body forever. Gentle - No pain! Sphynx Tattoo & Piercing has recently moved to a convenient location right on Usher's Quay. I highly recommend visiting! PS - Don't pull on the door handle like a f***ing animal, like I did.
