The ONLY place in seattle to get tattoos done is slave to the needle. Its in ballard, ask for damon or christopher gay. They are expensive but when its for life, whats money? Every artist there is world reknown for there talent in tattoo work. Each have won numerous awards. I have a few tattoos, my first and favorite is a tribal salmon somewhat like the BARE logo on my sholder. I have a few friends who are tattoo freaks and they will tell you as well, its the only place to go. The work they do is awsome, I've been stoked every time I've left. Oh and dont go drunk or on pills they wont work on you, its store policy.
