Posted from the other Tattoo thread:

I'm thinking of getting a tattoo done on my back... underneath my neck. This design but without the clouds though:



Where would you guys recommend? Dragonfly? I've been recommended Red Dragon in Sg. Wang but it's closed.

My mother is hitting 50 this year and has 6 tattoos- two on either side of her neck, one on the back of her neck, one on her foot, one on her leg, and another on her wrist and hand. This is the one on her foot, but she recently got it touched up and added on. Done in Culture Shock in KK though:



My Dad has one too... on the back of his neck

Damn, Dragonfly at 1U quoted me RM 380 for the tattoo design I wanted. Only 2-2.5 inches and in black colour.

I've posted the design I wanted I think a page or two back. Last time when my mother did her tattoos in Sg Wang as well as KK they photocopied the design out, traced it and inked in (Ballpen ink) onto the skin before tattoo-ing... so I don't think it's THAT complex. I asked for approximately 2-2.5 inches as well, in black colour.

Maybe I'll ask in Sg Wang... but lazy to go aaaall the way down

Please don't misunderstand me. I'm NOT looking for a cheap tattoo... but come on- RM 300+ is considered very expensive for me, even though my parents are the ones paying. My mother has her tattoos done for, at maximum, RM 250 the most at Sg Wang. Her tattoos are still fine and nice, I think her first tattoo is about 5 years now, and they're mostly intricate Sanskrit characters (Done in black ink though)- more complex than mine, and some are custom designs. And guess who is the person advising her throughout about tattooing and stuff? Me.

I've also been asking around about the reputation of the tattoo artists in Dragonfly, but thus far no one has directly given me a satisfactory answer. Same with recommendations for tattoo parlours/artists. I live in PJ, and travelling down to Sg Wang is too cumbersome for me at the moment with University and all.
