Lemonade Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Does anyone know anything about it and if it's any good? I'm planning getting a new one in a couple of weeks and I don't want to give that miserable cunt at Richard's any more of my hard earned cash for a shit tattoo and a big bucket of attitude.

ZeromiserY Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Raport its called. Daryl from retro's does the piercing there (and tattoo's?)i think they aim to give you a unique tattoo. thats the impression i got from hearing them speak to customers when i was in getting a piercing. i've not heard of or seen any of the final artwork though. sorry.

Neil Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 I'd be interested to know who does the Tattoos there as well. They look like quite a professional little outfit but I was under the impression Darryl just does the piercings there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuart Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Guy called Woody. Not sure if he posts on here. He's the main one. There's another guy too though, I'm not sure of his name.I'm only ever in there for piercings, or just to see Darryl, but he's assured me on numerous occassions that the guys are really good and that if I ever wanted a tattoo, he highly recommends them. (Which he wouldn't say unless he really means it.) From what I know, they are either exclusively 'freestlyle' or 'freehand' tattooists. I forget what the word is, but I'm sure it's one of those. Basically, although they still have a book of ideas, they won't tattoo you from a picture. You can bring in a design, or show them something you like, or describe it, and they will create an original piece for you, adapting it until it's exactly what you want. I could be wrong though, but I'm sure that's what they're about.Obviously, best thing to do is give them a call, or find people who've actually had tattoos there. I know it's not much, but hopefully that was a little bit of help.Oh, and no, Darryl doesn't do tattoos, he isn't even part of that company, he rents his piercing room from Rapport, and pierces under the business name 'Tattooed Freak', or 'T2F'.

Guest Bob Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Then they'll give you exactly what you want, but just not the same as what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted November 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Then surely they are just giving me what they want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teabags Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 AS far as I'm aware, Woody will try convincing you to get something unique, but I'm guessing if you want EXACTLY what is in a book (or your design you bring in) he'll try and do it.

Munky_Rules Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 a couple of my friends had tattoos done there and they have got to be the worst ones i have ever seen, also they healed really bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz79 Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 I was wondering if anybody has had anymore experience with rapport tattoos as I am about to get a sleeve done. His draws are amazing but just wondering how his tattoo's are? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 i know a guy who was tttooed by woody before he set up the shop, it was an alright tattoo but he goes reeeeaaaalllly slowly...or at least he did (this was about a year ago) so this one was left unfinished and it didn't heal great either.

fatboy Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 I got told to avoid that place for tattoos, but piercings are ok...fuck knows what to reckon as people told me richard was an arrogant prick. he was nice as mince to me late sat afternoon. I got there 10am to be told that he didn't have time to do the design i wanted, so i drew something smaller and they agreed to it and was booked in at half 4. got there and he put the stencil on my arm. i said that it was a spur of the moment getting a tattoo and mentioned the other design. He said "oh i didn't realize it was you who wanted that design i thought it was someone different getting this one" he then got the other design slapped it on. 1 hour 45 mins later it was done, he knocked a tenner off and i was well chuffed. he as sound as fuck all the way So going by what people say getting a tattoo at rapport don't what to think till i get one myself...
