So - it seems that the prettier a Tattoo/Piercing place is, the less likely the staff is to know what the hell they are doing.

I went to this swanky looking joint in West Hollywood to get my Monroe ball changed to a shorter bar with a little sparkly jem....the dillhole there told me I couldn't go to a shorter bar yet...AND actually wanted to drop my bar to a smaller gage.
I had to argue with this dude to keep him from doing it.

THEN, he puts in the new bar...which has a WIDER backing than the first one. It gets caught on my tooth MORE than the original.

And to think I actually tipped this moron mad

ANYway - I'll being going into Hollywood to get a decent bar this time - the places there look like they SHOULD - small, sleazy, and staffed by convict looking people who are heavily tattoed and pierced biggrin biggrin

The odds of me coming out of this place without a new tattoo as well are pretty slim smile I'm not sure exactly what I want yet....but I do know it's going to be on my left shoulder.

I'm thinking maybe some sort of gargoyle......

That's very true. The more polished the place looks, the less experience they have. Sorry to hear they were inept and wouldn't give you what you wanted. Do you think you could change it out yourself if you bought a shorter barbell?
I also never trust a tattooist who talks bad about other shops in the area. Quality work should be respected, whether it came from them or someone else. My fave piercer was let go and has yet to get established elsewhere, so I'm hesitant to do anything at the moment.

I love gargoyles. I think a gargoyle in mostly grays would look amazing.

Jeez, I'm tired, I don't know if I'm making sense anymore.
