As someone who's booked an appointment for next month, I appreciate this a lot! Thanks for writing it up.

I have a question, actually, that you might or might not be able to answer, or is maybe... kind of dumb. Is tattoo ink different from, say, ballpoint pen ink? As in, when the artist draws on you and then tattoos the design, it's not a problem that the pen ink is probably getting dragged under your skin? (I'm asking because the artist I picked draws the designs directly on the body, too, and I kind of wondered - obviously it's not a problem since it's his usual process and he's a well-known, well-regarded artist, but. Yeah, okay, this is the most useless question ever! lol
