ooana Posted December 19 Report Share Posted December 19 Planning on getting another. Any recomendations for good artists here in the city?

rudeboyyouth Posted December 19 Report Share Posted December 19 Fuck the City....come out to Long Island and get it. If you would make the venture I could recommend some places for you with tattooists that rival any of the work that I have seen come out of the city for the past 6 or 7 years. There are so many tatooists out here that do such good work and they aren't as expensive either. And the sanitary conditions are more than clean.

I know a bunch of people who got their tattoos there and I trust the dude that's going to do mine. I walked in with one idea and he quickly told me he wouldn't do it because what I wanted would look ok for the first year or so, and then just melt into a blob of ink later on....I appreciated his honesty b/c I'm sure some places would just do it. I had to go back to the drawing board but now I love what I'm going to get. It's just a matter of the money cuz these things are expensive!!!

stacychase Posted December 19 Report Share Posted December 19 There is a great place just north of the city in Mount Vernon, called Big Joe's. They run commercials at night on channel 39. They do great work and they are not to expensive. I have been thinking about getting another one as well, maybe on the tail bone area.

That's where I got mine done, my sister got hers done and they do amazing work and the place is hospital clean. Mike is the best there, so try and have him do it (but the other 2 guys are really good too).
