Question by wayj41: What is the best place in NYC for me to get my first tattoo?
For about two months I’ve been using various sites to find the best place/ tattoo artist to get my first tattoo.
AND I’ve been going NUTS! There are so many places and so many artist, that I’m truly having a hard time choosing. I need an Artist/place that;
1. Can do colored tattoos really well.
2. Familiar/capable of doing a tat that incorporates Mayan symbols and stone pyramids
3. Friendly staff
4. can ease my nerves, because this will be my first
The idea I have for my tat is a 1/2 sleeve starting from my shoulder. At the shoulder will be a shining fully colored sun, but actually a Mayan sun calendar in the place of the sun. In it’s beautiful glare will be a mayan temple, surrounded by vines, trees, etc. with an innocent, creepy, yet beautiful exotic woman standing in front of the temple.
Do you guys have any idea where i should go? Please HELP!!

This 11 year old girl has a great passion…TATTOO! In our tattoo shop she is learning how it’s done.First she learned on a melon.Watch her placing her first real tattoo on a real person now !!!!! This young artist is tattooing an old tattoo artist.She is repainting an old skool tattoo. In about 1 year,she will be a new artist in our shop !!!!
Our apprentice Mina does her first official tattoo as the Daredevil Apprentice. Mina spent three years mopping the floors and getting us our food and coffee before getting the privilege to begin tattooing in the shop. Tattooer and shop co-owner Brad Fink is in the chair and we all did our best to make her as uncomfortable as possible. Mina earned her apprenticeship by working very hard, putting in her time and impressing every artist in the shop with her paintings and good work ethic.
