Is it just by me or is it the same by any of you , seems like there a lot of new shops poppin' up.
We just had 2 open a couple of towns away within a few months of each other. .

same out here, last 2 years many have popped up and shit down.
people think it's living like a rock star till they do it and learn it's so not that on a day to day.

we had two pop up within a few months of each other also, theyre are already too many here now. apparently one of the shops didnt check out the laws and were
arrested two weeks after they opened for tattooing and piercing the nipples of a 16 year old. the charges never stuck propbably cause they were the first shop
stupid enough to do that.-tattoomistress

Well hell if you can go to Miami and make millions and you can go to LA and make millions why can't you make millions in the town of 100,000 with 16 tattoo
shops already...
What happened to the good old days were the main players would go in and next thing you know that shop was gone or making rate so the cutthroat shit didn't happen.. Oh yeah tattoo magazines popped up and tattoo schools came along and our world became a fade instead of a life we were proud of...... Sorry for the rant but All I have been hearing from a few other people is the same thing. It's amazing that we keep things on the up and up and the asshole down the street does what he wants and the locals wont do a thing.. Had it happen to me twice. The police came in and were like I need to know if you tattooed so and so.. Pulled the records out and nope didn't do it.. The cops started telling me the penalties for tattooing the minor and I told them yeah yeah then the ass down the street would be up for 100 year bit if that was the case... The kid that got the tat was 17 out of his friends house and said I did it... Short end of the story...... One day tattooing wonder stars... BIG F^#*ING HAMMER = scratcher shop removal.... |

I remember some places gettin' the BFH back when I was just getting into the biz , just before the mags and "how to videos" and crap came along...

are true...."
