Got my first Ink today!

Well I got this done today at Joker Tattoo on Centre st. NW . Highly reccomended, great people, lots of art work both dark and more brighter things.

Anyways it's deffinately worth it, I was in the chair an hour and a half and still need to go for touch ups in 2 weeks. I think im already hooked, I want to get it extended like 8 inches lol.

Let me know what you think

Looks good man. You happen to know the guys name who did it?
I worked in a couple different shops (in London) for about 5 years, needless to say I've got my fair share and I'm very much addicted to tattoos as well as herps. And as Slannesh said, welcome to the club! : )

Hump,

Who's the best artist in London? In your opinion? My wife and I both have been thinking about getting another Tat sometime soon.

Greenman,
IMHO there is only 2 good artists in town (out of at least 20). The two have very comparible work, but one seems to have much better pricing, which is a big plus in my books. I know in tattooing you get what you pay for, but I have seen thousands of tattoos by both, and they are very very close in quality. The guy I get to do mine is Sean at Hanger 18. I used to work there too, and I am very comfortable getting my work from him so I will continue to go to him, but the other one is Mike Austin. Both excellent artists and you can't go wrong with either of them.
Where are you from in SW Ontario?
Hump.

Rikki,
I don't know if it's like this in the states, but here it is sort of an unwritten law. There is no legal age to get tattooed or pierced, but the tattooists do it to save the problems of pi$$ed off parents coming in and bitching. They usually go by 16 w/ parents consent or 18 on your own. I remember hearing of one case though of a divorced couple that while the kid was at the fathers for the weekend, he took the daughter in to get a piercing and the mother turned around and charged the father with child abuse!
Hump.

Far as I know, Hump is correct. I have couple friends that have many tatoos, not one mentioned a legal age.
