Please, do NOT go there....
a) they get stoned while they work
b) I've seen some work come out of there
c) 'biker style'= BAD

And where ever your friend decides to go, ASK to see the artist's personal portfolio's to make sure you like their style (esp. if getting an original piece, and not some design off a wall), and check the quality of the lines and shading in their work. < This is the #1 mistake people make- they naturally assume that because they have a job as a tattoo artist, that they know what they're doing.

Also, another good place to go is Bobby Five- which is Rob Coutts own shop- he was one of the best ones over at New Tribe before going solo. http://www.bobbyfive.com/
Bobby Five
1239 Queen St W.
Suite #3, 2nd floor (South side, 1 block west of Dufferin)
Toronto, ON M6K 1L5
Ph 416.538.6528

AND FOR THE LOVE OF G-D, DO NOT go to Artatorture (at Queen & Sherbourne)- it is the dirtiest place on earth!!!

And there are those who like the dirty biker or prison style tattoo's!

Also are you tellng me there are no other tattto artists in the city that mix pleasure with business? LOL

No, of course u gave great suggestions.
I just really wouldn't want someone who's wasted to permanently mark my body in that state of mind. A GOOD artist wouldn't do that, tho. ;)

Sure there are- Artatorture is one of them too. If u dont mind the crackheads walking in off the street, that's the place to go. (the workers aren't much better) :p

I just got a nice one from New Tribe (listed above). They made a cool custom design for me, and it seems like they take their work very seriously, I'd recommend going there.

In this instance, I'm refering to the real genuine crackheads that hang out on the street at that 'lovely' intersection.

Queen & Sherbourne and Sherbourne & Dundas = the NASTIEST corners in town.
