She was very accommodating to what we specifically wanted.
When it was our turn, we each presented what we wanted to Brandi and she went and copied it on trace paper with little additions of her own. There was tons of 50's-style purses, hats, doodads, etc. We arrived 15 min early and since Brandi was finishing up a walk-in, we looked around the store for a bit. We made an appt so that the three of us could all get done together on a day that worked for all of us. Since I know nothing about tattoos except the high quality of her work that I've seen on her body, I agreed. We went to this place on the recommendation of a friend with several tattoos, since she's been seeing Brandi for all her tattoos for the last several years. I have found friends and comfort in my Flipside camp and from my very first year, I finally feel like I belong! They seemed more than significant to me! I have always liked the idea of tattoos, permanently marking something on my body, but I never could think of anything that seemed significant or meaningful enough for me. Another camp leader joined in and after much deliberation, I decided to commit as well. Well, 5 years came and went successfully this year of 2013, so that Leader was held to her word. Long story short, my Flipside camp leaders made a joke that if our camp made it 5 years, they would get a tattoo.
The general atmosphere was warm and vibrant much like the coats of paint on the wall and the neon signs outside. There wasn't much room for sitting but there was so much to look at you're up and about anyway. They have a boutique section that sells expensive but beautiful purses. They had a large piercing selection I really liked the couple of wooden pieces they have. He seemed to want to help, but Andy knows his stuff and takes his time explaining things.Īs for the facility, Atomic, the cleanliness seemed on par, but I didn't inspect much. Last week I ended up going to another place within a few miles and the person who helped me was very nice to me, but he was very young and he rushed our meeting quite a bit. Talking with me made feel reassured about my self-care regime. He even tells me of previous mishaps with his own piercings like we were exchanging war stories. He tells me what he would have done differently and what other jewelry options I could have had with my piercing so it would heal faster, say 8 weeks instead of 8 months faster. When I arrived just after 11 (which is an hour before closing) he was busy with some clients, but when I heard him talking to them through the procedure and giving them very thorough aftercare instructions I though I might have found the right place. All of my money and pain down the pisser, right? Not quite according to Andy. It had been almost two weeks and the cartilage piercing finally started to ooze a bit. My latest body modification was an intricate piercing of my ear cartilage done elsewhere but Andy was happy to help. I'm probably done with piercings but if I change my mind I'll find Andy where ever he is.
