Mine was done by Hori-Ken in Tokyo, and cost JY25,000. I' happy with the results: it's
very beautiful and I like the color of the butterfly. Will I have more done? I'm not yet
sure...

I got this done in Jacksonville, Florida for USD25. I like it a lot. It hasn't faded at
all or needed any touch-ups. This was my first and I sort of went tattoo crazy for a
while. I think I'm going to wait before I get any more done.

I got mine done in San Francisco. I got a deal since I knew the tattoo artist-about five
hours work for only USD375 from Eddie Deutch, a master artist! Yes, I'm pleased. It's a
true representation of me. I need to get it touched up a little but the lines are very
clean. I'll definitely have more done. I would have sleeves if I had the money, but I tend
to spend my cash on plane tickets and film.

Would you do it again? A whole body of evidence says...maybe.

This was done at Inokashira Park in Kichijoji. The lines came out really well so I'm
pretty happy with it. I think I'll probably get a few more done - but just temporary ones!

Mine was done in Inokashira Park in Kichijoji. I'm pleased with the results because the
tattooist gave me a little something extra. Still, I don't have any plans for more-at the
moment.
