So I decided to get my first tattoo in Vegas. I've researched different places and then looked at the artist's work at each parlor. I was impressed by Andy's work, style, and background in art. Contacting the shop I was greeted by Kelly, who right away made me feel comfortable and confident about choosing Skin Design, so I scheduled an appointment for my girlfriend and I. I also talked and worked with Andy to finalize my tattoo. He is so amazing at his craft that the fear and uncertainty that I had disappeared. Andy made the whole experience stress free, especially to a newbie. I've talked to a lot of people who've had tattoos and I've heard horrible stories and most of them bled, or had bad scabing afterwards. Our tattoos healed so quickly and we didn't have any issues. I believe that the reason we didn't is because Andy makes sure he uses very sanitary procedures, and is a perfectionist.
About the pricing... they say you pay for what you get. My thought is if I'm getting something that is going to be with me forever, buck up and pay. This is something you should not cheap out on or chance by going to a cheap parlor.
It have been 3 weeks and our tattoos look so amazing! Thanks again Andy for the experience and hope to be there again in the near future!
