Where can one get a permanent colored tattoo in Dubai??

why would you go and have one....

I cannot believe all these girls walking around with flippin' dolphines (but they are sooooo cute) or those horrible wingtype tatoos on their lower backs...
There is nothing unique about it....and you are going to look soooo stupid in a couple of years time...I have met a lot of people that had them done years ago and they all regret having them....

and I am happy for you....

I am just questioning the motives for having one done...if it's purely cause 'everybody has them' (errr....so much for diversity by the way, looks like nowadays you're special when you don't have one), then I'd say think again and again and again...it's not something that you can get rid of easily....

and the ones that I have seen that have been done here in Dubai, are all of a very bad quality...but maybe there are those that can actually do good ones, just haven't seen it yet...

you see...I am very much for live and let live...but put some thought into that living, be crititcal when making a descision...and I am not saying that the OP isn't by the way...

Nowadays having a tattoo is a norm rather than an exceptiion, Im rather of the latter type and if ever I would get a temporary one is the best option.....

and what would that temporary one be like...

Albatross.....maybe at back along th shoulder blades....

Thanks a ton for your replies..........i have been wanting to get a very specific tattoo done since a long time and i'm not wanting to go with the flow of people..........

I would be grateful if contact details of an artist could be shared with me.

Thanks again.

oh, common Mrs. Robinson, lets not be boring and go get us some spider webs on our necks or smth.. ...

PS: totally agree on this with you, dont see neither beauty nor necessity of a tattoo....

Nat, I haven´t seen any good tattoo artist in Dubai...invest a bit more and go to Amsterdam. Top one: Schiffmacher...Especially if you have your own design you really need to trust the artist, because it is also his/her first time doing this specific tattoo!!! From what I have seen I wouldn´t place such trust here in Dubai for something that sticks for you for the rest of your life. Invest a bit more so you won´t regret for the rest of your life.
Of course I agree with everybody and it is not something you decide over one night. Also, I advise everybody to get a tattoo on a place which can be totally hidden at your work place...but that´s common sense I guess.
