Turning a negative into a positive...
by blacktina
So, i wanted a new tat. I took my idea, and went to black cat, where i have been wanting to try for a while, but just never had. I looked in the book, and with the help of J' taime, came up with a plan. A couple of months later, when i was ready, i went back excited, only to meet "the new kid"! (que scary, sinister music) . He of course was very nice at the time, but maybe a little too anxious. With the idea i wanted, he said he would charge me an extra 45 dollars then what J told me, but i figured maybe because it was HIS rates?!? Tried to give him the benefit of the doubt. Then, he also told me i would have to get it ALOT bigger than i wanted to fit the design, which i understood, and also to move it over a little. Alright... i guess. We started on the tattoo with him saying he would kinda draw it out as he went. He had just gotten a call from his brother, saying he had to go for an emergency, which i found out later he doesn't even have a brother!! I asked him should i come back tomorrow, and he, of course, said no, he could finish in no time. I didn't think smoke would be that hard to get right!! When i got up, i really wanted to cry!! It was the WORST tattoo that i have ever seen!! The smoke looked like fire,and it looked like a tiger had scratched me! I said i would give it time, at least let it heal, but the more time went on, the worse it got. I called back there, and talked to J'taime, who told me to talk to Mark. Mark was very helpful, and very apologetic on work he didn't even mess up! We set up a consultation, to see how we could fix this very permanent problem. Mark was great. He really worked on trying to fix it, and was very real and understanding. He covered it up in a classy, yet unique way that i am sure i will not see anywhere else, but would have probably gotten the first time around had i gone to him, which i will again very shortly. So now my tat from hell, literally, is a work of art. Thanks again, Mark and J'taime!
- Pros: Mark and J'taime are the best!!!
- Cons: THE NEW GUY!! (da da dum!)
