Always be sure to thoroughly research a shop before going, especially when visiting another country. Finished product next to my stomach piece. On day four now and my own piece is healing nicely. Since Sick Rose followed everything else by the book I was able to overlook the shop cats since I had followed them for so long and seen the healed results, with no issues. This is important to check as I know many shops in China don’t follow Western health standards as closely. The shop did follow all other health protocols, such as using new needles and ink, and wearing gloves the whole time. Back in the West cats wouldn’t be allowed into shops, but here in China you come to expect the unexpected. I also had one of the shop cats sleeping on me for most of my experience, which was a good distraction. I had my ribs tattooed, which took around three hours, and he made it as good an experience as possible, considering the painful placement. Kai was very professional and a soft spoken guy. Everyone at Sick Rose speaks English and they are all very friendly. If you don’t speak Chinese then it’s also important that the artist you go to can speak some English. Sometimes you may want to actually schedule an appointment if you have a specific day in mind, but if like me you need to keep your schedule open, then make sure the shop takes walk ins. I messaged the shop before arriving and talked to Kai to make sure I could do a walk in. Strong bold lines and bright colours that will last a lifetime. All of the artists there are professional and do quality work! The shop mainly deals with old school style pieces.

This might be a more different experience than you’re used to in Western countries, and it’s good to do your research. So you’re travelling to China, or maybe living there short term like myself, and you want to get a tattoo.
