I Love My Piercer And/or Tattoo Artist!

[mystoo]

Seeing as every artist has his/her own technique and style, do you like to mix it up with diffrent artists? or are you fiercly loyal to just one?

[Tigerlily]

I'm loyal to one. Out of 19 piercings and 1 tattoo, I've only swayed from my usual guy once.
I say that once you found a good person who is amazing at what they do, its hard to trust anyone else.
Although, I wouldnt mind going to another country and finding an amazing artist there...

I've had work done by a few different arists but going back to the first, one and only for my next all alll future work. She's just that good dammit!

id love to have a tattoo/piercing artist that i favour. but its more like a shop that i used to favour but have since moved away from. i got the majority of my work done at "miraculous creations" in worcester mass. most of the ppl have moved on though.

I just go to the same guy because he's my freind. I have another freind that tattoos so I wouldn't mind getting something done by him, but it's just because I know him, not because I wouldn't want anyone else doing the same design. Does that make sense? There's a couple other people that I wouldn't mind going to, but once again I don't have anything in mind that i'd say "I have to get this done by this guy."

I tend to go with whoever is most competent int he style/type of piercing I want.

Not particularly, BUT my uncle Tony Patrick based in Dallas Texas, is on the Borat movie... he's NOT in the actual movie, it got cut.... but he's included on the extras DVD.

There is only one tattoo artist I'll use, and that's primarily because when I explain ideas to him he gets them exactly right. I've seen enough people be unhappy with work from shops around town that I won't take chances. As for my piercings...well 5 out of 6 I let my friend do in high school. I was smart... Haha now I go to Black Pearl. I'm happy with them, and their piercer is a hottie. Bonus!

Oh that hardly makes you a wuss. Tattoos and piercings are needlessly inflicting pain on yourself if you have no real desire to have them. If you really want them then the pain tends not to make as much of a difference.

I've had my two piercing done by two different people, probably get another friend to do my next one. As long as they are good I don't mind using different people for that.

I got my tattoo done by a friend, he is not Japanese but works at a Japanese tattoo shop. I will definitely have him do my other tats once I figure out what I want done. Other guys might be just as good but he is a good friend and during the tattoo session we had a great time talking, I just couldn't see me having as good of a time with someone I didn't know, especially a Japanese guy. The conversation would have been different.

[mystoo]

Good conversation is important for sure...if you're gonna be sitting there for hours at a time.
