Loved this. I replaced Colin, working in prisons doing laser tattoo removal and when someone is ready to make changes in their lives, then laser tattoo removal is definitely part of the process. I love my work and I love my clients, they are constantly an inspiration to me.

Sometimes it is those barriers that are placed in front of us that force us to adapt, the bigger the barrier, the greater the adaptation, human ingenuity at its finest.

The first big visible tattoo I got on my right forearm was done by a New Zealander at good a shop in Los Angeles. He pronounced it as “Taddew”.

Me a favor and ask your uncle tho now I’m just confused

[@gregorybathurst7171]

I hope tattoo artists have developed there trade craft just a bit . From gang facial crap gang shit art was madness it' was good knowing most of those with facial tats relied on those tats to intimate rather than putting in the hard yards

[@yyxy.oncesaid]

Wotz good about that chappie

[@petermcgregor5268]

Stan and Shane Rob and the old Turnkey or screw old Jerry Guy

[@kiki29073]

Stick and poke tats are still a thing in professional tattoos. But, that's the traditional mmethod around the world.

[@williamsheets5987]

They should let tattoos in prisons be a job. Let convicts who know how to tattoo and prove their work make money from civilians. If the convicts get out they have a career when they get out and it's legitimate. Some prisoners tattoo better than professionals on the outside and they do it with way less

[@AffectionateArcade-dt9po]

Aren't tattoos apart of the Maoris culture?

[@Bebedollie]

They aren't really called tattoos
There are special maori names for them
