    Hey all,i'm getting my first tattoo during the summer.I'm getting a very very simple design,it's nothing too imaginative but it has meaning behind it,a 7 and a 13 in roman numerals on my wrists,maybe with a little bit of filigree around it.I'm looking for a place with a good rep so any opinions where I should go?

    I had my 1st ever tattoo done last year in The Vibe in Sligo. Am very happy with the result and would have no hesitation in recommending them.

    That could be either of two places I believe.
    Snakebite is the oneI'm most familiar with, and is located on the third floor of a building on Middle Abbey Street, near the PAB travel place.

    Yeah, that should be no problem for any decent tattoo artist. They will look over it and let you know if it looks ok, or if there is anything that won't work properly, and would change it for you if need be.

    My girlfriend got her first tattoo done by a guy called Badger in Attattoed in Bray. Did a great job. Brittany got a tattoo there when she was in Dublin before!
