Check out Jay Wheeler in Livonia, MI.

Thanks for the info 🙂

I actually have a consult set up with XS tomorrow so hopefully all goes well 🙂

That bird is not a robin, by the way. It looks like small songbird, more like a red-faced warbler. A robin doesn’t have a red face, and has a larger body shape than the one in the tattoo.

Not that anyone cares what kind of bird it is… but yeah :p Cool tattoo anyway!

I used to be a much worse road rager than I am now. It scared me one time because some dude got out of his car and came up to mine at a stoplight to yell at me. I think it was shortly after that when I got my permit to carry…. but also cooled my temper at bit.

Now if some dude is raging at me, instead of flipping him off, I’ll blow him a sugary…[Read more]

and my favorite ones “you are in a spiritual warfare and a demon might attach itself to your tattoo, this could get bad”

omg if someone said that to me I’d probably break down laughing… wow

Thanks for the reply 🙂

I know everyone is different, but in general I wonder how long it would stay looking nice before needing retouching? If its awhile, it may still be worth putting it there.

I dunno, I’m so torn! >.<

The tattoo includes a QR code, which is basically a multi-dimentional barcode, which iPhones and Android phones can read and interpret. The phone reads the QR code and displays whatever media is hidden behind that QR code (on the internet).

It’s about as useful in customer-grade applications as warts are on pigs, and is…[Read more]

I don’t get it… an iphone youtube video playing on a guy’s chest… I take it it was a joke or am I missing something here? :confused:

I like how most of the photos are artsy. Nice find 🙂

Welcome to the forum, and congrats on your recent retirement! I’m new myself, but you’ll find your way around soon enough 🙂 Enjoy!

Welcome to the forum 🙂 You came to the right place for info and opinions 🙂

I dont have any original ideas to contribute (I’m not so good at that sort of thing), but I think a the overall idea of a tattoo in your dad’s honor is a nice one. Have you talked to him about it? Maybe he has some ideas or inspiration for a design that would mean…[Read more]

That is definitely a quality shop. I don’t see a huge difference between Chase’s work and that of Mike or Matt, so I wouldn’t wait around for him if the others were available. Anyway, if the place looks clean and you are comfortable with the people there, I say you’ve got a winner!

I’m really glad to hear that, thanks so…[Read more]

Welcome to the forum 🙂 I just joined today too and this is a great place for info. I think your idea sounds lovely 🙂

Hey Thaela, welcome to the forum. You have found the right forum for answers and this is a very active and fun forum. You will really like it here. I seriously doubt you will be stopping at one tattoo. It is an addiction that is hard to shake. Be prepared! I’ve been planning my tattoos for a long time. I have only…[Read more]

I don’t know anything about the shop or meaning behind it, but the splatter lettering looks really nifty. I likes 🙂

listen to your hubby…..

Oh geez, not you too :p

That looks really nice! Love the detail and shading. Your friend is very talented 🙂

Hubby wants me to get a tramp stamp but I think the term people use for it turns me off lol… Plus I wouldn’t even be able to see it myself very easily and where’s the fun in that?

I also think down by the pelvis/hip bone is a sexy place… thinking about putting one there actually.

About 10 years ago (when I was the ripe ol age of 20), I had my tongue pierced on a whim by this shop near where I was in college at the time. I don’t remember anything particular about the place other than it was clean and the guy did a good job. I never had any trouble with the piercing and it healed incredibly fast and wasn’t even really that…[Read more]

This should help you out a bit. http://www.tattoo-spot.com/Michigan/index.cfm Websites are a good place to start looking, as nobody is going to try to pass someone else’s work off as their own, it’s too easy to get sued.

Excellent! Thanks for much for the link! Definitely going to start there and see what’s around.
