Soo i have decided that i am going to get a tattoo, and i want to hear some suggestions of good, clean places to get one in the bay area.

thanks,
matt

 

temple in oakland. Guru in San Jo.

There are TONS. let me know what specific style you are looking for and how far you're willing to drive.

 

welll i am looking for good lettering. its a bible verse. also, i am only 16, do you know anybody that will do one for me??

 

Graven Image in mtn view is good (a bunch of my friends have good work from them). If you're 16 and you want a good reputable and clean shop to do the work, you're gonna need to get your parents to go with you.

 

yeah my parents are totally down with it, i just need to find a place that will do it for me.

 

guys at temple are good with that stuff. did both my old roomates sleeves and they were almost all religious pieces. Including a bible verse in a scroll. dope.

What verse?

yeah take a parent with you and you'll be all good.
choose carefully. Think it over.

 

go see clint in petaluma, at the eye-spy. he is always featured in magazines and does not charge more than the average artist. he does some amazing things.

 

anyone know of any artists that specialize in the japanese style back-pieces?

 

i am too thinking about a tattoo...A Cross w/ bible verses maybe under it

 

I know a couple. The most local being the Japanese dude at Guru. He specializes in old school japanese.

 

Industrial Strength in Berekely is where I have my work done. They do awesome work.

 

Sacred Tattoo's on Broadway in Oakland.. a lot of my friends including myself have had really nice work done there. ask for Oey

 

im getting a japanese yakuza style back piece done, and wanted to find a artist that has done them before. for something that big, gotta make sure they know what they're doing, haha

 

bump so i can remember where to go when i get my junk done

 

thanks for replying every1. my main concern is the fact that im only 16. im pretty sure that any1 i go to can do a bible verse on my back, its just a matter of my age and if its a clean place. thanks again keep em comin
