Gus is obviously a professional :-).

I have two Henna sets... one thats a sort of air-brush stencil thing, and the other thats proper powder mix classic freehand henna.

Since judging by the PMs I'm getting there seems to be some interest, I will be attempting Henna tattoos on Friday before lay-on, probably around logistics (or wherever else i can find decent lighting). (Unless you were planning on doing it, Gus?)

Tips will be unnecessary but always appreciated :-D



I was not planning on doing it at the event no.  Merely just letting others know the options out there.  However if this seems to be a continuous thing, I'd be happy to bring my kit, and help you get people pumped out before lay on.  As long as I get down there early enough (coming up from mass) Since it does require a tad bit of time.  But yes,  if you do need help I don't mind at all.  :)  Better for everyone to have cool IG tattoos anyway!  The Celts need to tell us stories of why they all got drunk and tattoo'd a "Dryad ate my cat"  In Dwarvish runes on the smalls of their backs!

I may be one with such interest! I'd be willing to tip too.

I am not worried about the pain (too much). My main problem will be saving up for the money because I want a really detailed tattoo and plan to invest in a good artist. Since it's permanent I want the best for my buck.


As it should be!

If you're going to have a Henna Tattoo session, please find somewhere other then Logistics to do it.  Logistics, especially at this camp, gets very packed with the amount of people just trying to sign in before Lay-on.

Thanks!

I figured that would be an issue... can you suggest anywhere else that would have decent lighting?

i had the same money problem when i went to get my wings done. everywhere i went wanted to charge me like $500 plus. what i ended up doing is looking into some good artists around the area at tattoo shops that were offering an all you can sit deal. If you think you would rather sit through the pain all at once instead of going back in sessions, i would suggest looking into that. It's better financially and I paid only $200 for mine. The way it worked was you pick one big piece you would want to get done (like a sleeve, back piece, leg piece, etc.) and you have from the time the shop opens til closing to get it finished. So i saved myself a good 3 levels in build :-P


I may do that but mine may be around 400 if I don't. Still trying to think of how the design will look. I can usually tolerate pain fairly well. Worst fear is just simply not having it come out right.

The Inn is fine, as long as you don't disrupt New Player Training.  In a pinch, the Trade Hall has light, too.
