Tattoo are very popular aren't they. I promised my mother never to get one and I've kept my word. Some are very beautiful too. Have a great TT. :)

I didn't know about any of those. Thanks for that list.

Tink said...

I'd love to visit a few of those! I don't have tattoos (yet), but I like them as long as it's not too much.
My TT shares 13 things about Mabon.

I'd love to go to a tattoo expo. In fact, the last one listed is near me. I may have to see if I can swing it. Apparently, an old friend from college is now doing tats. If so, he's the only person I'd trust myself to.

Susan Helene Gottfried said...

Aah! That IS!!! The Meeting of the Marked is organized by my old friend!!

Thank you so much! He's opened his own shop and I hadn't known.

Lori said...

Wow, who knew that there were tattooing expos? I have one on my shoulder from several years ago---a very elaborate, colorful peacock. My then husband talked me into it; my present husband can't bear to look at it. Which is one reason to be very careful when you get tattooed.

Well, there's the age factor too. Being a tattooed lady at my age is a bit...embarrassing, actually. I keep it covered up.

Siani said...

Ah, it's a shame I don't live in the States. I've been meaning to get some new ink for a while, although I've not decided on a design yet.

Ah, too bad I missed the one in Phoenix...nothing comes closer to me :(

Thanks for the list though...good information!

The biggest challenge with these tattoo expos is to leave A LASTING IMPRESSION, right? ;-)

Fun!
