I'm going to a different tattoo artist at the same shop as my previous artist
Did the other artist do a bad job with your tattoo?
Yeah, I was leaving for this reason
While it is good to be loyal to people who work on our tattoos, if they are not doing a good job it is okay to find somebody else. After all you are paying for it and should get a good tattoo.
Right. I just can't afford someone to do a bad job on something as permanent as a tattoo.
That makes total sense to me. Once you get a tattoo, it can be painful and expensive to get rid of, if it even can be gotten rid of.
