Swan

My brother is removing two tattoos, one on his back which is only black, probably around 5-6 sq inches, and the lower half of a 3/4 sleeve, which has all kinds of different colours.
He's paying £130-140 for both I think.
I went to the same place, I'm getting a black and grey backpiece removed which takes up almost half my back and he's charging me £110 a session and treats the whole piece in one sitting.
I guess his prices vary mostly based on the colours used rather than the size of the tattoo because mine is bigger but I'm paying less.

My brother's going to the place in Farnham but they have 3 more clinics in and around London.
Edit: Actually, my brother goes to the Chiswick place, not Farnham.

My brother is getting some tattoos lasered somewhere around Surrey, he's quite happy with the price and the progress he's made after around 4 sessions.
I'll get back to you with the name of the place and a link later on.

I can understand shinobi. It does happen. I was tattooed by an artist of considerable repute last year, saw his work in magazines, etc. I went with a "trust me" for a sleeve tattoo and am regretting it.
The first alarm bells rang when he inked a perspective line drawing of a phoenix on my forearm. It looked great on paper, but not so wrapped around my arm, it's hard to pick out what's going on and it looks like it has a broken wing and neck. I was in denial for ages and friends told me not to worry as it would all work out in the end. I went through with the full tattoo thinking at the end of the day I will get a great piece of work and I didn't want to micro-manage. But the sleeve isn't great either - far too much solid black, detail on the outside of the foreground pieces has been lost and I've noticed a few errors where lines stop behind foreground pieces, etc. I hold my hands up and think I should have communicated my thoughts and concerns more, but just did not think I would get a bad tattoo.
Same as you, I'm too embarrassed to show it. I've worn a t-shirt twice since I had it and always seemed to see a lot of people with good and fantastic sleeves when I did!
If you're having doubts now, with a work in progress, I'd seriously consider whether you want to go through with it. I wish I stopped after the first session with the linework, but hey ho. I'm looking to remove too if I can scrape the money together so will join you posting on the removal forum!

Got this off Valerie Vargas at Frith Street on Tuesday, I love it! I posted it in the latest tattoo thread and someone recomended I put it in here, Cheers.

P.S. That Head Eagle on the last page is bad ass :cool:

Thanks so much for posting this. Great to see that you eventually got a fantastic piece of work. It's a journey I'll be undertaking when I get the money together so I look forward to posting the progress to a decent looking piece of work too.
