Tattoo's

So, I'm considering getting a new tattoo.... I am looking for a new artist and would like some input from those on here who have tattoo's. I am looking for a artist in the bay area, a artist who has done a lot of work and has a good portfolio, and someone who is REALLY clean. Any input would be great!

Hey,
Guru Tattoo in San Jose is an awesome shop I can vouch for. I had a peice done there, and I am nothing but satisfied with the way it turned out. They are clean, responsible, super-friendly, and do some *awesome* work. If you are interested, I dont happen to have there number handy, but you can find them on the web at www.gurutattoo.net or just walk in. They are off Saratoga Ave right next to Amatto's where a Tues night meet used to be held. Talk to Dave, he is the owner, does amazing work, and is a *very* nice guy.

If I could do it all over I would never have gotten any.

But If you must, and don't mind a little drive, I'd go to Rob @ garage ink in napa. He's the bomb.

Chels-

Try New Skool Tattoos here in San Jose, theve tatted some famous people. Ask for Adrian, hes one of the best, his portfolio is extensive and he has a wide artistic background. His costs arent cheap though but neither is his work . Ive seen some of his Full Body tattos hes done, and there like picasso's

Heres there Site: http://www.newskooltattoo.com/
