Hi all! I can across your site while researching a new tattoo :D

I have a small, bad tattoo that I got impulsively when I was a teenager! I didn't get any more done as my then boyfriend who I ended up marrying didn't like tattoos on women! I have now got rid of him and part of my treat will be to get some new tattoos! This time I am researching them properly!

Looking forward to browsing the forum :D

You have a serious amount of world class options in the UK. What kind of tattooing do you like? There are several forum goers here who would be happy to provide firsthand reviews of artist and shops/studios in the UK.

I am thinking of a black and grey phoenix to start with!

Im a northerner too!! have you been to Manchester tattoo convention or Manchester tattoo tea party? i would suspect not from what you've said? if so theyre well worth a visit!

I missed the tattoo tea party (wouldn't have been able to go that weekend anyway :() I am thinking of going to the convention, just trying to persuade a friend of mine to go with me so I am not just a lonely chick wandering around!

Im from Manchester too! Theres a few great studios around, Sacred Art in Chorlton is brilliant, Rain City in the centre of town is also great, Blue Blood is good, also a bit further afield but worth checking out is Octopus tattoo in Derby.

A couple of those have been recommended already on a different forum ;)

If you are williong to go to London, there are several options well worth the time and money.

Into You Tattoo & Piercing / London & Brighton - Location in Brighton and London

Frith Street Tattoo | World famous Frith street tattoo, custom tattoos situated in the heart of Soho, London. Walk ins welcome! - Several people here have work from several of the tattooers at Frith St. All world class options here.

Those are the two that come to mind. Kinda busy today so I can't get real deep into options. I recommend checking out those shops and their artists.

    • Hello, So I'm new here and reddit is just awful people so, I wanted advice. So for some reason, I allowed a tattoo be blasted down my arm. My fault I know. I'm very fit and complimented all the time how tone my arms are. So, I got a sun over a lotus tattoo. My artist is extremely talented, there is not 1 shaky line, crooked line, and hes not cheap. Hes been tattooing me and my husband a long time. The line work is out of this workd, perfectly straight. Its a bold tattoo. All black. Everyone loves it. But for some bizzare reason, I can not look at myself in the mirror at this tattoo. Has this ever happened to anyone before? It's healed, but all I do is cover it and hide it. Has this happened to anyone? It turned out bigger and bolder than I ever imagined. From my shoulder to about 3 inches above my elbow.   
    • Good luck. Job hunting sucks. I got laid off from a company after 20 years and it took six months to find a job. I was in the dreaded “middle” management role at an IT company. A little over two years later my new company was  bought out and they did a “restructuring” which means the people doing the work get fired so the people sitting on their fat asses get fatter.  I couldn’t find what I really wanted so I just retired. Might be a good time to think about switching fields.
    • The only "amazing" thing I've been doing lately is job hunting. Honestly, it’s stressful. I’m always worried about having enough money for basic expenses and stuff each month. There are lots of jobs on Layboard https://layboard.in/vacancies/jobs-in-uae/jobs-in-dubai/speciality/baker, where I’ve spent most of my time. I sent my CV to several companies and I’ve got decent baking skills, even without formal training. So I hope they'll give me a chance to do a test task or something to show what I can do.
