new tattoo shop/Inver Ink (merged threads)

[sweetpea]

I don't find getting tattooed painful at all, i quite like the sensation.

The new Inverness shop is supposed to be very good, I am keen to check it out for myself, although it is kind of hard to resist getting discounted tattoos from a friend who is a tattoo artist, lol.

Lucky you, if I had a friend,local, who could do them I wouldn't bother travelling.

My right foot hurt worse than the left, the tat on my right goes near the toes and that pain was the worst, the guy from Dingwall did it but it was my own design although the butterfly was nicked off the internet. It's part of work in progress and will eventually carry on up my leg.

I had a wee look at the new shop in Inverness last night when I was passing through. It was closed as it was later on but it looks good!

Hey everyone just wanted to recommend the Two tone tattoos in Inverness. went there yesterday and the lady Lisa is great. I couldnt believe how gentle she was and so precise, making sure that every little bit was coloured in completely. Was hard to find her shop though and its appointments only because she works on her own. She is also half the price of the Inver Ink place.

O.K. so I'm curious about this craze for body art. What happens to the tattoo quality when you grow old and wrinkly or pile on a lot of extra weight in the picture area and of course when you change your girl friend or football team?

And of course sooner or later some archaeologist will come along and dig you up and then try to understand what was going on in society at this time

You mean I will still have my tatt when I am a skeleton?
They never said it was through to the bone when I got it done,I thought it was only skin deep!!!

Change your football team? If only life were that easy!

O well i got value for money if in hundreds of years if they dig me up and its still there!!!

Have been watching a lot of archaeology programmes lately and you'd be surprised how much skin can be left if you are buried in a dry climate or of course get the pharoh embalming treatment. And then there's the famous deep peat treatment where you come out with a marvelous sort of coppery sheen which could happen if you fall into a bog on the way home from a dance in Halkirk's Ross Instsitute in Halkirk.

In fact why doesn't some enterprising undertaker start marketing burial sites in the flow country but then somebody in Scottish Natural Heritage would probably get their knickers in a twist!

I got one last week too and have to say they are really good. One of the guys said his mate was up here scouting around for a shop in Thurso.

[Julia]

That would be great if a shop opened here in the county!

[anneoctober]

Are the guys at Inver Ink local peeps or from all over? Would love to see some pics of Orgers tatts from them - pretty please........!!

[quiteone]

[hammers]

Would be nice having tattoo shop locally,the only down side going to inverness is having to take the dreaded mother in law.

Jason at Inverness tattoo centre has done a couple of piercings for me and he's the best piercer I've been to, I wouldn't like to trust anyone else now. I'm thinking about going in for another one soon!

I'd like a tattoo one day, a little butterfly or something, probably on my ankle, but I can't find a design I like, and can't draw to save myself!
