Default Tattooists in the Essex area....

Can anyone recommend a decent tattooist in the Essex area? I want to get myself booked in for this week / next week but the place that done my other ones are booked well in advance!!

Dont want to go to any old place so would rather go somewhere upon recommendation!

Cheers
Chris

i asked about getting a toattoo done way back in april/may i think, the guy says he'll be free to do it in the next couple of weeks so he's proper fooking busy

but his work is spot on and he sometimes books whole days for people to come in and have their done

find somewhere that has been recommended, look at their work, ask for prices, find out who long they would need to draw up what you want done etc and then see how long it'll be

much better to do some groundwork first rather than just bowl up expecting someone to be there waiting to ink your body

hahaha!!!!!

Sanskrit is a bit like Hindi but apparantly more ancient. Took a while to get it converted, in fact had to pay to get it done, plus then got some colleagues at work (the Bank i work for is primarily based in India) to confirm!!! Though not many Indians can read / understand Sanskrit (as its old fashioned) which is ok with me - just in case they have put 'egg fried rice' on me arm!!
