    I was wondering if anyone has been to Monkeys Ink at 42 for a tatoo? If so, could you tell me if they are good there? Thanks in advance.

    My first tattoo which is fairly large, was done there at Monkey Ink. It's terrible.

    The other couple I have are done excellently and were done at Blue Flame in Raleigh. Check them out... Save yourself from a permanent mistake...

    I guess it all depends on who does your tattoo. I had one done a week ago at Monkey Ink and am very satisfied. My husband just got another one last night from them and his looks good as well.

    I have a friend that had a large piece done on her back from Blue Flame and it looks terrible.

    I would suggest you go in and look at the books of tattoos done by the artists in any studio before having your tattoo done. Then you can decide if the styles match what you want.

    I've gotten one (I have 10 all together) from Blue Flame and they were really great. Free handed my design, looks great, and it was at a good price.

    Lucky Vannoy's in Coats is good (the owner is pretty nice too, Chris)
    Southern Son, but it's in Fayetteville is really good (got my Little Mermaid tat there)
    Four Kingz in Smithfield, I've gotten the most from there and they are good, mine are at least. My eyebrow ring I got there as well.

    Never been to Monkeys tho.

    I'm happy with the one Tina did for me at Monkey Ink.

    I had a friend that had one there that was not that thrilled. I just got one at Glory Days and loved them. Go see Bert.

    DH got an addition to an original tatoo there, Thomas did it, and he did a great job, was able to add in the other kids, etc., to it without it looking like an 'add on'

    Monkey quoted me double the price as I ended up paying elsewhere for my last tat. Bert is good at Glory Days in Clayton, but I think Zack is awesome! Very clean, nice guy, great artist!

    I have had 4 done by Tina @ Monkey Ink. She did a great job. She listened to what I wanted came up with a great design, I would not go anywhere else.

    :lol::lol: I'm sorry, but that just made me laugh so hard. Do you not like blondes either? What about girls with small boobs? I'm pretty sure the original poster isn't really interested in what you, personally, look for in a woman. And I'm fairly certain that her wanting a tattoo is a personal decision that has nothing to do with attracting any member of the opposite sex...not just you. But I guess it's good reference material for anyone on here who's been hoping to catch your eye. ;)

    Great! Glad they were pleased. Zach has done my last 2 (custom design for both) and my dh's last one. He also did my MIL's first tat at age 62!!
