Tattoo Shop In La

Question:
I'm set on getting a tattoo, my first this coming Monday Aut. 10th. Thus far I'm planning on going to the Tattoo Shop in Portsmouth NH. The artists names are...kim and bugger. Does anyone know anything about them or has anyone used them before?

Answer:
-I had a small (2" wide by 3" long), what I later considered cutsie'ish-looking dragon done on my right upper arm. I was more or less testing the waters with this one, I guess, and I've since had it covered by a larger (4" wide by 6" long), more serious-looking dragon. I had this one and a really super one about the same size of a mummified pharoah's head wearing Tut-like regalia bursting through the skin of my left upper arm (just to sorta balance my arms out) done at the Ruby Arts Studios in Harrogate, England by an artist named Mick. I can't recall his last name though. My only suggestion concerning the Tattoo Shop would be to take your own art for them to work with. As I remember it, they had quite a large selection there, but it was pretty plain for the most part. Their location is excellent though, as there's a bar right downstairs where you can celebrate your wonderful new tat! Another tip for anyone travelling to England sometime and into body art would be to hold off on getting anything Stateside and have one done over there-my experience has been that tattoos in England cost a quarter to a third of what they cost over here. Plus, they generally have lots of designs from European artists that you might not find over here. They make for nice souvenirs of your trip too! I've been getting an itching for ink again (it's been a coupla years) and have settled on a demon from a Glen Danzig comic story called "Obscenity" drawn by Simon Bisley. I'm gonna have it done on my right shoulder blade with maybe a female demon midways down my back on the left side. I'll probably get them done at Tattoo Charlie's in Louisville, KY. Anyone out there know anything about them? I haven't actually visited their studio yet, I've just seen their ads. I suppose this is my delurking posting. I've been skulking around here for about a week or so and was surprised to see your question-I got my first tattoo at the Tattoo Shop! I've visited a few studios since and can heartily recommend them. Their studio was immaculately clean, and Hobo and Tattoo George were very professional.
