I'm thinking something like this could work well here. I know there are 1 or 2 people here in the profession.

Would anyone like to volunteer themselves? Or like to see anyone in the well so to speak?

Tbh I dunno if i'd be the best person, im not in the industry. Think it'd be better to get someone on the inside so to speak.

I think that's a good idea! It would also mean it's easier for people to scan back and look through the advice to see if their query has already been covered in the thread, rather than the same new threads popping up every couple of weeks.

Might be an idea to put more than one person in the well at one time (maybe form a well duo or trio), in case there's loads of queries and it gets too much for one person to reply to.

Does it have to be one person? A thread with someone like hot2def as resident tattoo expert and Will as general piercing expert and princess could be good.

I could be hugely mistaken - but I thought Lean worked in a piercing studio? Could be worth a mention to them.

Wasn't sure if Léan actually worked in a tattoo/piercing studio. Had an inkling though. =] I'm sure I know your sister aswell by the way.

Anyhow, this seems like a great idea. Delighted.

Younger. Also I'm sure you know a mad feen called Glenn? Infact, if I've got the right person I remember calling to your house with him after Winterfest 2006? Small world indeed.

Anyway, bit off topic. Yeah, piercings... Go team!
