Atattooed

When it came time to get an important coverup done I was seriously impressed by Maja and the staff at Atattooed.
My introductory and subsequent emails were answered promptly, which is a bit of a rarity in the tattoo world, sadly. I was flying in from the US for the session and they were very helpful in terms of the info needed to wire my deposit. The preliminary sketches –with options for colour and black and grey — were also delivered in a timely manner, which was delightful.
I arrived the morning of my session and was met by a chipper lady behind the desk — Jacqueline is pretty awesome and personable — who handled the paperwork quickly and passed me off to Maja.
Maja’s portfolio is quite lovely, especially her black and grey work, so I had faith that she could fulfill my expectations. She got my final approval of the sketch, arranged the stencil over the art to be covered and then we set to work; the whole time she was easy to talk to, made sure I had breaks if I wanted them and generally was quite responsive… and she’s also got a light touch, which made the 4-​something hour session fly by.
My arm is still healing, but the ink was put in solidly, there’s a lot of nuance in the grey and she did some brilliant highlighting in addition to flawlessly covering up the original piece. I have total faith that it’ll heal beautifully and I’d actually be willing to fly back out to Dublin just to get more work done by her in the future.
(and if I remember once it heals up I’ll post a picture)
