Do tattooists make house calls?

The phone rang.

Me “Hello Chameleon Tattoos.”
Caller “Hi, do you do private tattoos?”
Me “Yes we do, we have a separate room at the back where people can be tattooed should they feel uncomfortable with it being done in public.”
Caller “That's not what I meant. Would you come to my house?”
Me “… No.”

The rest of the conversation is cut but it was me trying to explain in simple terms why tattooing in someone’s house which had not been sterilised would not be a good idea.


Build it and they will come, but not all shall have sensible...

Re: Do tattooists make house calls?

Get yourself a transit van, do up the back and you've got yourself a mobile tattoo studio.

That'll sort out the lazy bastards and you could also go round office buildings like the blood donor vans do. Probably best to go after them though, for the sake of saving lives n all.

You know. Somewhere within that is a fantastic business plan. Hmmm.
