I searched....I know the locations...Scream Ink....Are there any other places??

I need a little Ink.....Anyone have any idea how the prices are for a small braclet type tat?

I know C943 got a nice tat while he was down there.

Cant remember the name of the place but i got a wicked tat at a place on 5th upstairs from a jewelery shop (i think) just up from McDonalds but on the opposite side, my tat is Mayan and bout 4 inches in diameter and very intricate but only cost bout $100 which for me was cheap as over here it would have cost bout $250, will def be paying another visit

Tommy, go to Scream Ink. Don't mess around when you're talking about needles in your skin. Plus, they're on the Playa Deal Card! How can you go wrong? Unless you're planning on getting the "Yosemite Sam with 2 six guns" tattoo. In which case, go wherever you want!

Last time I was there I got an extension for an already existing tat in a shop on fifth called something with "suerte".....can't remember. The owner was called Paco I think......jeez, it's so long ago. It's upstairs- on the right of the stairs leading up is a liquor store.......it's pretty much at the beginning still.....maybe on of the locals can check the name.

The work came out really nice- he did the design just for me.......price was absolutely okay and hygene (very improtant) was absolutely ace.
I think best is to check out the working style and the place a few times before you go- see if they use new needles on every customer and new pots for ink etc.....just hang out and talk and see.

Both my husband (David) and I have been considering getting another tattoo while down there....if you do go to Scream Ink Tommy you will have to let us all know how things went and of course pictures are always good too.

Tommy, John talked to the guy at Scream Ink quite extensively. (Pony, I think his name is) He charges $85 per hour, negotiable if your are getting a lot of work done, which John was going to do (cover up work of his current ones). In relation, they charge $100 to $150 per hour up here.

If ya get inked in Playa, are there any restrictions on what ya can do? Like exposure of a new tat to sunlight, saltwater, ect.

Yes no water or sun....You should get it on the day or the day before you leave.....

No sun for about 3 weeks and when you expose it, always use sunscreen to minimize the fading if it's in colors.
