Belgian news goes global, w00t!

Kinda sad...but who falls asleep during a tattoo session? Let alone when you're getting a tattoo on your face...

I think I believe the tattooist's story more than hers.

This.


Not to mention, who gets a tattoo from someone who has only the slightest clue what you're saying, and without showing them a drawing of what you want.....

It is possible to fall asleep during a tattoo, I've done it, but not on the face! Not even remotely likely. For one thing, doing three tiny stars would only take a couple of minutes tops! He'd have been done before she had a chance to yawn.

Yeah, language barriers or not, Ive never seen a tattoo artist not have a drawing of what the tat will look like beforehand.

Edit: Nevermind. Re-read the story. Probably knew exactly what she wanted, got it, and was disgusted with it.

+1 to everything said. [EDIT: Except for Joe's comment]

I've fallen asleep during a tattoo,....ON MY BICEP. C'mon, who falls asleep during a tat on their face. This girl did something to p*** off daddy and when it worked too well she cried foul. I cite the "Sexy" belt buckle as evidence.

This has got to be one of the reasons why some artists won't tattoo the face.

Let me also mention that I thought this was going to be a thread about Thai Restaurants.

Haha. Honestly, who in their right mind would pay 55 Euros for a tattoo? My tattoo artist has a one hour minimum change and that is $120.

That's what you get when you try to imitate Kat von D..

I'm not buying her story. She thought it was cool to get it, afterward daddy didn't think so, girl cries wolf and blames the artist.

It said £55, which is just over 100 CAD, so not too different . Dare say, my tattoist is about £80 per hour IIRC (tho thankfully get discounts from having known her when she was just setting up shop )

Tho I will say, most decent tattooists won't touch anyones face. At least not likely!

The artist could defend himself very easily if he had a security camera or something.

The artist could defend himself very easily considering the plaintiff.

'I think he didn't understand what I wanted. He spoke only fractured English & French.'



How do you say 'You are a complete and utter moron' in fractured English & French?



Edit: OK, re-read. Spoiled twit. I think he(tat artist)understood.

Bah, she just needs to let it heal. She'll be fine after the black eye and swelling goes down.

Eff what Daddy and the BF have to say.
