    I've been there and was told the piercer was away so I thought I'd go onto this and ask here as people on this seem to know everything.

    I know a guy that was a tattooing apprentice in there, but he quit (don't know why), don't think he liked the place, but I could be wrong.

    best bet is just going some where you know is going to be good man.
    Snakebite, bodyshock and celestial ring are your best bets.

    Hello folks,

    I've been into connected ink on abbey street and I was wondering if anyone knows anything about these guys.

    Their previous work looked pretty good and the place seemed nice, but I just can't find anything specfiic about these guys.

    I'm looking to get something pretty big done, so it's fairly important that the place I find is proper.

    I really only need to know what you guys know about connected ink at this point, since this is the place I've been considering to go to now.

    Regards,
    me

    well you want a big piece but what style you looking for thats the best way to look for an artist really..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 nesgaard


    Im getting a long sleve done with some american style pieces in it. Ladies, skulls, stars, cars and fire.

    Oldschool.

    i got 2 of mt tattoo's done there a big polish guy!
    the tattoos are good, but the one on my ankle faded really quick so i ned to get it redone!
    other than that it was ok, they werent excatly chatty, and he did seem a bit pissed off when i was explaining excatly how i wanted them done.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 nesgaard


    Was that Dariusz who did your two tattoos? Dark haired fellow :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,448 ✭✭✭✭Cupcake_Crisis


    thats the one!
    nice enough, but didnt really try to put me at ease, or explain what he was doing.
    he worked quick but one tattoo i got done there was involved the word 'fate' and he forgot to line the t, shows his attention to detail really!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 nesgaard


    Well, I just got mine done yesterday, by Dariusz and I am pretty satisfied. Obviously an issue could be that he isn't completely fluent in english, but he was very concentrated about the details in mine. In fact we took one sitting of four hours on a piece only covering the outer side of my lower arm.

    Looks awesome.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,448 ✭✭✭✭Cupcake_Crisis


    as long as your happy with it!
    i guess its just a matter of taste, weather u want someobne to put u at ease or just someone to get it done as quick as possible!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6 nesgaard


    Well, I don't think thats the question. It's a matter of trusting his experience and attention to detail, since he doesn't really have a choice of comforting you.

    However I would agree on the fact that it's probably not the best place to get your first tattoo, since he doesn't really focus on you being calm but rather him doing a good job.

    So in the end, it all really depends on what kind of person you are and how you look at tattooing.

    Have been their on numerous occasions I know the guy who owns the shop on top now called Cru clothing have gotten almost all my tattoos there they're awesome my daughter had gotten her first tattoo their and all of her piercings there

    Her tattoo was done by the Polish Guy he was very sweet to her stopping every 10 to 15 minutes so she could move around not much of a talker which was ok as she was trying not to scream or cry "undignified" she called it lol

    They're the best in the biz I'd recommend them anytime
