i dont know whats the shop name actually... its in the middle of the jalan one.

quality, im not sure, cos i made a mistake in dragonfly. i asked him to make my tattoo brownish although he didn't want to initially. turned out looking like my tattoo faded like hell. its not the artist's fault, its my own fault for going against the artist's advice. ahaha.

the one below monorail.. its a thailand artist... the quality, well im not so sure about it. u know when u tattoo, ur tattoo not supposed to bulge up right? from what i heard, if it bulges up means he drilled it in too deep. but on the bright side, its a free 3D tattoo for me =) the one i did in that shop, the tattoo bulges up more than usual.

price-wise, the one below monorail is cheaper than other shops in sgwang and dragonfly. around 100-150 cheaper.

how come u didn't realize the shop name

a thai artist exactly under the monorial's bridge of Bukit Bintang Monorail?or when u exit from monorail bukit bintang and turn right (go to staircase) u'll see the tattoo shop over there?

can u give me a correct location for thai artist?

sorry sorry ! its KL Sentral Monorail.

its sort of 'behind' the monorail.. its under the tracks one.

well i dont know the name cos it just says 'TATTOO' there. haha

ahahah u sure know how to console urself! tattoo that bulges up = less quality work. my name also was done sloppily too so it bulges out. and i thot all tattoos are like tat until i went for my snake tattoo and was enlightened by my tattooist, haha. my snake is smoooooth babeh =p

well.. ask everyone's opinion..............

3D tattoos nicer, or normal ones


btw altung, that shop owner said that in a months' time another artist will be coming back.
said that his job is very good, better than the thai artist (who inked me too deep) actually.

Post pic la apa shy shy

I did that once, but I used ice instead. Turns out fine

Ah... for thai tattoo better do at thailand itself, laos ppl. Else, locally can get at pudu plaza. I assure you it's a different experience

yea one that you could easily pass out.

Imagine a 50cm needle. see also pass out jor..

I did that once, but I used ice instead. Turns out fine nod.gif

I heard ice makes it more painful. True ah ?

Not really, I held the ice until it almost melt finish

self piercing is much cheaper - but the downside...you might end up piercing not such a nice placement for the jewellery

unless u're willing to re-pierce again after hitting the wrong placement

I really wonder how come they charge so much for piercing using needle . Could it be the Service Charge or the stuff they use .

pyramid got tattoo shop??

can i know where can i find tattoo shop in subang or sunway?
i only know inked.

actually theres a new one in pyramid new wing.. but i havent checked it out yet

i think u're referrin' to black cat at asian avenue
the last time i went (for the 3rd time), like a month plus back..it wasn't open yet!

yea the bulk of the charge goes to their service - since if they pierce, u go through minimal pain unless u're alreadi darn pro at doin DIY piercing

but the truth is, a lot of ang mohs in the States actualli do their own - but that again ,the ratio of these people compared to those who goes to professional piercers are few against many

certain piercings you could still do yourself - ear lobes and cartilage

i would think that for stretched piercings, the initial placement is very important, so for that, i would strongly suggest you go to a professional piercer - for the stretching parts, you could do yourself provided that you have enough patience to wait between stages of stretch

the parts which are hard to get good placement would prolly be like septum, bridge and prolly nostril.

other than that, they're generally fine to DIY.

p.s. very dangerous to self pierce tongue or eyebrow - since there are essential nerves involved. there has been a case a gal died from tongue piercing several hours after, due to an important nerve being pierced - she suffered bleeding in her brain which eventually led to her death

i dont have the guts to pierce myself... *faints*

INKED not good enuf? go there only la! i did mine thr haha
damn i'm like promoting for them like crazy. need to charge commission edi.

how's their design? good? price also leh?

Im finally getting inked tomorrow @ Borneo Ink after a superb 6 long weeks as their appointments are all full. I am gonna attend my 1st session which is the outline of the koi fish. Its my very 1st tattoo tho. Hopefully the pain is barable. I can actually imagine the pain now.
