some girl i met at breathe said that there's a really good place somewhere on main.. im sorry i cant be more specific but what they do is they plaster the image on your skin first just to see if you like how it looks, then they just trace around it when they actually tattoo your skin. that way, they arent actually drawing the tattoo so there's less risk of them screwing up

Yupppp...The Dutchman in New West is really good. And the girl seems to be really good. I've never seen any of her actual work, but I went there to get a specialized drawing of an angel from her and it was gorgeous. I never ended up getting that tattooed though.

I went to Next to get mine done. If you go there, get Josh to do it. I have several friends that got theirs done by him too and he always does the most AMAZING job!

Good luck getting into the Dutchman without super advance notice...such a well known parlor, and such a talented staff :)

I highly recomend Dave Shore at Dragon tattoo in Surrey - he came highly recomended to me from a huge herd of bikers that have been sportin' his tatties for the last 30 years - and I couldn't be more pleased with his work
(but most people will recomend their own tattooists...so reasearch lady - research)

Actually there are a lot of really talented artitsts in this city to choose from. The biggest thing is to find someone who you are comfortable with. 1st on Granville is good too, but more expensive... Bear is a great guy!

Dave's out in Abby is probably the BEST in the lower mainland seeing as how Dave has travelled the world for his skills. You have to book him like a month in advance though

Yah, go see Wolf....he's great, affordable, and a super cool guy!! I think he might be a bit lonely though...?!?!?!? Because when I got my tattoo done he asked my friend and I to come back for follow-ups a few times...and we ended up staying for hours, talking and playing video games and on the computer and watching TV. And then he wanted to show us his new jeep, etc....?

But go to him. He is good and reasonably priced.

^He's just like that.... he's a good friend of mine and he's just a nice guy by nature. We go party together and stuff.... at one point he tried to fix me up with his daughter...that was funny.

Yah, we got to see a lot of pics of his daughter....=) But I agree that he's a good guy. Plus he suffers from the same health 'condition'/disease that I do, so we can relate.

The only place anyone that I know goes to is Bryan's Tattoo's in Abbotsford. I've never seen any shitty job's from him....except this one girl. She was making fun of him while he was doing the tattoo so he didn't do the greatest job. Stupid girl

As for hurting, it hurts at first but then you sort of go numb and can't feel much. Of course, the closer to the bone you get it the more it'll hurt.
Hope whatever you get done looks great.

That's bullshit... I have work on my body done by Bryan and I'm extremely good friends with his assistant Sean as well. Bryan would never tolerate crappy work even IF the person receiving the tatty was being an ass. If word ever got to Bryan of you slandering him like this he'd never let you in his shop again. The guy is world renowned for his skills.... don't post lies for the sake of making a 'cool' or 'funny' post.... ESPECIALLY at the expense of someones job. :finger:

it all depends on what kind of style you want.


steve cole at sacred in kits is simply amazing. he is actually working on my second sleeve right now. thats how much i dig his work.

he's good at portrait work. scenes with "earth" in them. and he is very good at designing original variations of something you like.

but if you want traditional work, like most tattoos out there, go see steve MORR, at sacred heart on davie. he is very fast and very very good at stuff like that.

I think I would know if he did a crappy job considering I saw the result. All my tatty's i'm getting are done by him and I know he's a great artist. But this girl was actually dissing him straight to his face and yes he did fuck up on it.

And i dont appreciate being bitched at about something that you dont even know.

I had mine done at Sacred heart on 10th too, they're super clean and there are some incredibly talented artists that work there. Craig did mine, he was on Degrassi Jr. High when he was a kid and I saw an interview with him in Phat Magazine a while ago. I'm not sure if he still works there but I totally recommend him.
