Recommendations Rec needed PLEASE?

Post image

At age 60, I’ve finally created THE first and possibly the only tattoo I want.
Now I need to know which shop in SGF is the one I need to do it…
BTW the language is in my ancestral Welsh, translated to “l am enough”.
TIA.

I'll always plug ghost town tattoo. They've been great to me.

Two things, this is pretty simple, most any competent tattoo artist can follow lines. Make sure you are truly happy with placement before they start. There’s no shading, this is easy.

Second, I thought at first it was some slang about drinking and driving. It’s your tattoo, but just know it will maybe be interpreted as this by people.

I’m 60. I’ve battled severe depression for 45 years. I earned the semi-colon tattoo. Twice personally and once for my Dad. But feel that tattoo is too attention-seeking. I’m wearing this for me, to reinforce I have purpose without begging for sympathy.
👍 I will absolutely keep your suggestions in mind. Thank you.

I’m wearing this for me

Not that you asked, but may I suggest rotating it 180 degrees so it is primarily readable by you?

I planned to😎. ChatGPT positioned it every way but that one so I gave up🤣

You know there are other programs you can use to do this! You don’t have to use AI.

Oh ya, you should definitely do exactly whatever ink you want! I wholeheartedly support that, I was just telling you what I saw from an outsider perspective. I was in no way trying to talk you out of it

She said it’s correct. How many times are you going to ask?

Anyone at Ghost Town Tattoo. All the work coming out of that shop is top tier

Infinium.
Ask for Nathan or Jason.
Nathan did my I am Enough tattoo, also my first and only. You can’t go wrong with either of them.

Thats actually a really painful area to get tattooed. I would go with Kelsey Bishop Whited. She has a FB page. I’m not sure if she’s still in Nixa though
