Q. I am taking a trip to Seattle over the new year, and I'm hoping to get a tattoo while I'm there.
I've already done some research on Google, and so far I'm leaning towards Stephanie at Madame Lazonga Tattoo.
Does anyone have a personal reference or review from a tattoo artist in Seattle?
As I said, I've already done some research, I'm looking for personal experience.
Looking for a reference for ANY tattoo artist, not necessarily limited to Stephanie at Madame Lazonga Tattoo.

A. Hello --- i go to Magenta at Diamond Tattoo in Kent. Here is a video of the tattoos she
has done. The leg one is a cover up and it's now 4 days old. There is more to go as after
4 plus hours the skin said no more and we had to give it a rest until later, so the highlights
and color are still to be put in. Hopefully you are going before the 12th of January as she
will be out here in florida to do the all women artists tattoo convention.

Tattoos, piercings in Japan?
Q. I've heard something, i don't know what.. i'm hoping someone can tell me here.. that people in Japan look down on people with tattoos???
I of course have both my arms covered in tattoos, and i'm going to japan in a couple of months.... i'm wondering if it's true and why it is, if so!?
And, how about piercings???
Is it popular for people over there to get piercings, as it is here in the west?!
Thank you!!

A. In general, yes, people in Japan do not like tattoos and piercings.
However, as a foreigner, you are sort of excempt from some of that. You're already seen as an outsider, from a different culture. Still, there are plenty of foreigners without them, so why you?
Tattoos are associated with the yakuza (Japanese mafia). It's extremely rare to see a Japanese with a tattoo without some connection to the mafia.
Piercings are for women.
Japan is strange in that some ways it seems almost anti-nature. Just look at the way all the rivers are cemented up. Yet on the other hand, an un-tattooed, un-pierced body is revered.
Why? It just is. I agree with it too. The human body is so beautiful just as it is.
Even from a Western pov, that's all sort of passe. I thought that was supposed to die out along with the Seattle scene (grunge). Nirvana died in 1994.
