That’s really frustrating! Sorry to hear that happened. I wanted to throw in my two cents because I had some black that needed to be touched up and was told it is possible.

Thank you…[Read more]

Just an update and a quick question.
Went to the new parlor today. The artist I want was out sick but I spoke with their front desk person – exceptionally friendly and has two tattoos by the artist that are just stunning. She was extremely attentive in taking notes of what I want (she asked for a reference to print out for the artist, which I…[Read more]
