Small and meaningful Tattoos in Bury
Tattooing is a job that requires people interaction, one to one experiences, and being involved in this client relation, it always brings meaningful experiences that are quite remarkable.
The reason why I chose to write this blog, it’s based on the past few experiences I have been experiencing with clients coming to get tattooed in our studio in Greater Manchester. Being a Tattoo Artist, it makes you realise how different the reasons are, when people get tattooed. Some get tattooed because they love a specific piece of art, or because they want to be reminded about someone who they love.
I would start mentioning about “Claire” she was the daughter of my client “Louise”.
Louise walked in the studio, and I liked her honesty, she said “I would never had a tattoo done, if it wasn’t for my daughter passing away” It was her first time walking in to a Tattoo Studio, and I wanted to giver her the best experience as possible. So I listened to her request, explained the tattoo process. You know when you get a feeling about something, I knew she was going to book in.
She said she was gonna think about it, and asked to look at our work in the studio. I showed Louise our Facebook page, she looked at it on her phone, and spotted our Business year award post, and the post was made the same day as her daughters birthday, and she decided to book an appointment.
Tattooing Louise was quite emotional as in the consultation when I was planning the design with her, she cried when I was doing the design for her. And when I was tattooing her, she was getting emotional too. It must been so difficult to Louise. Her daughter Claire was 51, and she had a rare heart disease, and it was untraceable, so by the time it was found out, it was too late, so she passed no long after.
I’m glad to be able to contribute to Louise’s experience, to have a memorial of her daughter for a lifetime.
Tattoos sometimes have such an important meaning, people go through such unexpected difficult times, and being able to contribute to memorial tattoos, I feel like I’m giving something back for their loss. And I want to do the best work possible, so they can walk away with something that they love.
Thank you Louise, you were great.
