Show me a man with a tattoo and I’ll show you a man with an interesting past.  ~Jack London

You may lose your most valuable property through misfortune in various ways.  You may lose your house, your wife and other treasures.  But of your moko, you cannot be deprived except by death.  It will be your ornament and companion until your last day.  ~Netana Whakaari of Waimana

The world is divided into two kinds of people:  those who have tattoos, and those who are afraid of people with tattoos.  ~Author Unknown

[P]rimitive tribes were certainly convinced that the spirit, having escaped from the body at death, retained a replica of its earthly tenement.  They therefore used tattoo marks as a means of identification in the next world and a passport to future happiness.  ~Ronald Scutt

Tattooing is about personalizing the body, making it a true home and fit temple for the spirit that dwells inside it…. Tattooing therefore, is a way of keeping the spiritual and material needs of my body in balance.  ~Michelle Delio

Tattooers are Human

by Tanane Whitfield

We get tired, sick, have kids to take care, our kids get sick, we get busy, we run behind, we also forget. If you get upset that you couldn’t get in and get your tattoo as soon as you wanted because we are all booked up, not my fault. Me personally, I’d wanna get tattooed by someone I’d have to wait for just because of the simple fact that there’s a reason that artist is hella booked up. If you are the type to get all butt hurt about shit like this then YOU should have made an appointment like the rest of the patient clients. Just because you didn’t get what you wanted, you’ll prolly go bad mouthing the artist because he didn’t bend over for you. Oh well, Karma’s a bitch. You leave, get shitty work instead that you didn’t have to wait for. Not be happy with the end result and come back askin us to polish your turd of a tattoo. Happy Huntin….
