    There is a forum here on Tattoo's and body piercings , you might get a better answer there .

    I no some people , including my wife , that really didn't like the attitude in Bullmans , having said that the work there is supposed to be excellent .

    There is also one on Broad Street , one in Foxes Bow and one on Wickam Street , I believe . The one on Wickam Street seems to be very good as I have seen some of their work on a friend .

    I second this. I find there to be a very cliquey and elitist attitude in there. I'm not bashing their work or anything, they are very good, but I do find they have an attitude in there. I've been in there three of fours times for different things and nearly every time there has been a group of people in there, friends of the workers. When I walk in everyone goes quiet. It's very very intimidating.

    Just asked herself there and she said that she found them unhelpful , in a word . I just read out ergonomics post to her and she said thats it exactly .

    Trained by Danny Bullman if I'm not mistaken?!

    Seen some of his work and its top notch. Had some done myself by Danny, but apparently you need to make a booking in advance if you want Danny to do it himself nowadays.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 62 ✭✭xXxhotstuff xXx

    Only when he wanted to be ;)

    Anybody been to All Star Ink yet?
    I was in there enquiring and they seem really helpful and decent, very eager to draw up some custom work for me.
    I want to go back and get some pics of work and all that shabang before I commit though.

    I've gotten tattooed by Fred in Danny Bullmans and to be honest I didnt like it. He was very rough with it, could feel him dragging the needle in parts. Also he messed up the colour shading, it ended up being more coloured-in than shaded.

    Heard some good things about All Star Ink yesterday from a guy sporting a great tat done by Danny Bullman.


    Bullman's and Living Art seem to be the two with the best reps in Limerick, although what I am hearing about the guys in All Star Ink is from people that I trust the opinion of, and they are raving about how good some of the guys are.

    Wouldnt recommend Living art mate to be honest. Not a patch on Danny's stuff.
    Ask to be done by Danny himself. It will probably be cheaper. The guy works at some speed and he is quite a talent.


  • Registered Users Posts: 25,560 ✭✭✭✭Kess73


    Yeah but isn't Danny heading to Oz soon?

    Is Spiral on fox's bow any good?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1 Eilie123


    Rather than slate the work of others, kinda bad taste I prefer to foucs on positives..So without a doubt it has to be Allstar Ink, the newest addition to Limerick's Tattoo scene..fanastic state of the art studio and excellent "pre tattoo" attention, relaxed friendly and very professional something that other places lack big time..Highly recommend Ross

    BTW;personal experience no affiliation

    Where is All Star Ink? I'm looking to get a tat finished and have heard good things about the place.

    Just up the same road as Living Art. I cant think of the name of it but head up Thomas St, right to the top and take a left. Either that or go up William St and take the right at BoyleSports.

    Looks absolutely class from the outside, very modern. I think ill go in and try them out in a few weeks for my next piece.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 187 ✭✭rstans


    I'll def have a look. need one finished and have ideas for a celtic sort of thing. Still designing it, Will post pic when I get it done.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29 pug_lover


    Just wondering if anyones been in to All Star ink recently?? Heard some good things bout it but I'm not sure. Not too gone on on the funny looks you get when you walk into bulmans so I'm going elsewher for my next tat

    Bit of a coincidence here , my wife felt the same way about Bulmans so we went in today to have a look at AllStar and came out having booked a day next week for her to get it done . The place is very clean , modern and professional and the guy we were talking to behind the counter couldn't have been more helpful , spending ages talking her through ideas and how it would be done and ball park figures . I suppose to be fair the real proof will come next week when she actually has the job done . I will post back then to say how she got on .

    Edit: here is another coincidence , check out the centre spread of the Limerick Independent ...... AllStar Ink .

    Looks like I will be going to All Star Ink soon now that Ross works there, he has done all the work on my tatoo and I want to add more onto it.
