Please?

Cool. What are they like price-wise? This one is rapidly turning into a half-sleeve.

Not hugely cheap, but as I'm sure you know - in tattoos, you get what you pay for.

Haha, yeah, true enough.

Although my two favourite tattoos (the ones I just got) cost me £100 between them.

Oh, also Saira Hunjan does great animal work - http://www.thefamilybusinesstattoo.com/gallery2/v/sairatoplevel

Yeah, I went there for my first tattoo - they let a novice do it (and badly) without a) telling me or b) supervision.

Well, that's pretty lame, but I can recommend Saira's work specifically. You really need to check the artist out and request them before getting tattooed, ask to see their portfolio, etc - as you discovered the first time!

Yeah. I did that with Jay Redden. She's lovely, but unfortunately, still in Chi-town. Admittedly, she might be moving to Manchester, but I doubt it'll be before August...

I'll check her out. Thanks.

My friend and her boyfriend get all theirs done at Eclipse in Camden. My only experience is getting my piercing taken care of when it was all messed up. It's not really the same but, it has been recommended to me in the past, so I pass it along.
