Tattoos in Ireland

    Hi folks,

    I'm 42, settled, mother of 3. I never paid much attention to tattoos and generally don't really like the big coloured ones. However of late I've found myself wondering about something small and understated, maybe in white ink? SO -

    a) does anyone know of a good place that will do a white ink tattoo?
    b) advice on best place to get small unobtrusive tattoo with just a very personal meaning?
    c) general prices and places that are good, clean etc.

    Thanks...

    a) where are you located?
    b) ankles and wrists are popular for females but of course anywhere you like is good
    c) 50 - 200 euro depending on size and colour alternatives

    To be honest, it'd be easier for you to call in to a few local artists and talkk to them about it. They will give you feedback on your idea and may have other suggestions.

    White ink? Why ever would you do such a thing? All the pain and no pleasure, they fade SOO quickly, you can only see them under the UV lights in a nightclub (since your a mother of 3 I don't think you'll be out in many pubs). I have more than 10 tattoos none of which you can see unless I want to show them to you, they bring me happiness and when I see them I smile, what's the point of a tattoo that you cannot see?

    Nope. You're thinking of UV ink.

    white ink doesnt fade quickly, they are just hard to see

    From experience I'd disagree - you have to get them touched up far more often than other colors, white fades faster than other colors at least on my skin.
