Description of service

This was for a small, one color butterfly on my right shoulder. It is about two inches high and two to three inches in width. The color is black, which is what I wanted. I am not sure if I had the option of more colors since I never asked.


Review of Service

I went to a place downtown that is known for it's reputable artists and had no problems and had an overall good experience. I had had a few piercings done there in the past, many years ago, so I was comfortable going there. I went because I had heard an ad on the radio for a special price, so I'm not sure what the normal price is - I believe it is about $75. I probably wouldn't have gone in if I hadn't heard the ad and gotten the special price.


Tips

If you're looking to get a tatoo, be sure it is from a reputable place. Also make sure you feel comfortable with the artist - after all they are going to be using needles on you, and usually I only let a doctor/nurse near me with one of those! Also, if you can be patient, wait until they have a special and you can probably save yourself a few bucks.
