Fresh Ink

The other day I went with a good friend of mine to a tattoo shop around the corner. They go by the name Platinum Tattoo. I have to be honest I wasnt sure what to expect. We walk in and there were 2 other customers looking at the flash on the wall and in the racks. So while waiting for our turn we thumb thru the portfolios on the table which I seen some really nice work. I have to say I was pretty impressed.

So were up and Crystal begins to ask questions which I shortly joined her so I could hear what was going on. So of course the lady at the front gives us the minimum and tells us if we could wait a sec and talk to one of the actual tattooers. We sit back down look around some more then Crystal sees her chance to ask some questions and get a quote on what she wants. The guy was really cool as well as the whole atmosphere of the place. Very clean, laid back and again nice art on the walls.

Come to find out the text she wants needs to be bigger and shes going to rethink where it goes...which I think she was going to put it on her lower leg, going around. I guess we'll wait and see. Its just a trip for me to go into tattoo shops. Just to be around the artwork and the excitement of something so personal and permanent is a rush in itself. Awesome shit and i was just taggin along.
