I’m pretty convinced that there are only 2 reasons why people get tattoos and body piercings: 1) They do it to make a fashion statement, as tattoos and piercings are creative ways to express one’s self through body art, and 2) They (teenagers going through puberty) get tattoos and piercings to express rage or a rebellious attitude towards their parents. Whichever reason it is, who cares about what you do with your own body? BUT, for Jesus’ sake, p-l-e-a-s-e do not get your tattoos or piercings done at some shady shop or at Lovisa (we still love you!). So, we will make it easier for you by unveiling 5 tattoo and piercing studios that are highly recommended and reliable in KL for your next body art appointment.
