Decent tatoo shop in accy?
 
Im looking to get a tatoo soon and was wondering if anyone could recommend a decent place to get one done. If anyone has had any tatoos done could you let me know where and if possible a picture of it. Would appreciate it greatly. Cheers in advance.

not open yet but there is a new tattoo place opening in oswaldtwistle on union road, just up from the co-op, next to the knitting shop. Theres also one at the bottom on whalley road.

Not locally really but the eagles wing in blackburn has a good reputation. Its near the snooker hall.

There's one in Burnley that has won lots of awards - that's where I go!

So, how many people has that shocked? :D

The funniest tattoo I ever so was in a book.

This man had a full hunting scene all over his back.

Horses, people in Hunting Pink, trees, the lot.

The fox was running for cover, and only it's brush was sticking out of the hole, which was more to the bottom of the man's back.:D

He/she are missing out on business.

If I was a tattooist, I'd tattoo my name, address, and phone number, with every design I did.:D

Let's face it, I have seen many tattoo's on many people, some are works of art, most are a waste of time, but if there are any of you ladies that would like to see what an intimate tattoo could look like I have my own razor and shaving brush, (plus after shave), and a very extensive range of felt tipped pens, (and before you ask, YES, the felt tips do tickle). :alright:

If you remember Jasper you will know Wacker (Malcolm) he was somwhere up Woodnook I think, he took over from Arnold (Jasper ) in the early 80s.

Have any of you seen Miami Ink on TV ... my tattooist designed some of the guns they use ... Cathy at Express U Tattoo ... but Kingston is a long way from Accy, probably too far to come for a tat.

On a more serious note, you can usually tell the quality of the artist by the length of the waiting list. I booked with Cathy in July ... my appointment is Nov. 7. If the guy says "Sure, I can do it right now", run like hell.

Was it tattoos inc. on standish st.? Pepp has won many awards.

I have had a couple done there and I had a portrait of my daughter done this thursday. He did it at the hourly rate, £55 per hour, it took 3 hours and is an excellent job.

BTW, I had to wait 12 weeks for the slot as he's very busy and highly regarded.

His number is 01282 459000

I had mine done in burnley too, but can't remember exactly the address, just know it was town centre and up some stairs :rolleyes: and I was very happy with the result and offered a touch up session for free within 6 months if I felt it had faded in any way

The one in Burnley is called Skin FX. Its over a couple of shops on the main high street. You go down the side of Yates Wine bar and take the first right (its a back alley) then the door is signposted and you go up the stairs. I've had both mine done there and have had no problems.

The one in Ossy is opening on Tuesday and the 100th customer will get a free tattoo worth £25. I may try there for my next one if it gets some good reviews.

Well we've all been complaining that Ossy is turning into a pizza and hairdresser town - at least this is something different. Good luck to them.

Yes, can't say that some of the things appeal to me.
