tattoo belfast type area

hiya

looking to get a new tattoo. got my last one done in skinworks by jinx when i was 18 and didnt think to check out tatoo artists before i went. it was great though want to check out my other options.

people are going to think i am mad but i want a fairy. not a tinkerbell style but a beautiful gorgeous piece of art fairy. custom style. i have a few ideas to chip in but its a custom piece. can anyone recommend anyone for this sort of work and how much they are?

my husband recently had some custom done in white dragon botanic for £60 an hour but checkingout other options.

anyone heard of skullduggery on dublin road? any other suggestions.

ta!
love you lots like jelly tots :o

  • If I were to get a tattoo, I would go to either Snoopys in Glengormley or Artistic Tattoo on the Woodstock Road in Belfast
  • I've had work done by Pert in Ink Castle and would recommend.
    You can have a look at the website HERE

    Best recommendations will come from friends or colleagues who have had work done in studios and know what type of ink you are after.

    Went to Skulls (Skinworks) 13 years ago and have only gone there since but I do hear good reports about the guy on the woodstock road.
    Skinworks are expensive but then you generally get what you pay for

    I've had 3 tattoos done, 1 by Pert and 2 in Skinworks by Tommy Gunn.

    I would recommend either of those places. I agree with previous posted, you ge what you pay for!

    Good luck

    It really depends on design and size.:confused: You'd probably be best taking your chosen design to a few places and asking them to price it for you.

    Most places would also be more than happy to show you around and to show you a selection of the work that they have done.

    You'll be able to make a decision then on standard and value for money.

    Good luck

    Small dark haired guy into his cars ???
    If so, he did my last one. Good job and not half as painful as I remembered it to be :)
