Whereabouts are you? There's a good one down in Coolie, in the arcade behind/underneath Montezuma's. Good reputation and lovely people. Can't remember the name though. I'll have a google.

Re: Tattooist in the Gold Coast.
Yeah cheers,
been told bout that one, one at Mermaid, Southport and Surfers. Just wondered if anyone would have given a huge thumbs up/down to any particular one.
Have also heard that there can be up to a 2 month wait for appointments at that one which would suggest to me that they are good. He's wanting a pretty big tattoo done but is leaving here within the next 2 weeks so may not even be able to get one.
Cheers

Re: Tattooist in the Gold Coast.
Tattoos are best kept out of the sun when they are new. Also its best to go to a tattoo artist to have a chat about what you want done, then have them prepare the art for your next visit. Large tattoos will usually take several visits of a couple of hours or more. It is also best to have access to the artist afterwards, as some area's might need a touch up later on.

Was just trying to be helpful as I've got a lot of tattoo's and think that a bit of preparation goes along way when its something you're going to keep forever.

Re: Tattooist in the Gold Coast.
My daughter had her belly pierced at the Coolie place and I was checking them out for me to have another tattoo. Was very impressed with the guys (and girls) i've dealt with there so far. They were recommended to me by several random people. I just need to find the right design and I'll be down there
