Interesting Fact: Did you know that Lady Randolph Churchill, the mother of the former British prime minister, Winston Churchill, was one exceptional woman in élite society with a tattoo? Her tattoo design of choice was a snake coiled around her left wrist. In those days, tattoos were seen as a matter of wealth because people had to travel to Asia to get themselves inked.

After some time though, the culture surrounding tattoos in Glasgow shifted its focus to the national game of the place. So tattoos were all about football and everything related to it. Getting inked equaled conjuring images of shirtless men (the Rangers and Celtic players) in their minds. The players too marked themselves with their club’s crests on their upper arms and some with “Hate” and “Love” words self-inked on their knuckles. Crudely.

In the current times, many hipster tattoo artists have opened their petite and stylish tattoo parlors who have gained a reputation for catering to the upscaling demand of people. There has never been a more appropriate time to get yourself inked with some tribal ink, a sugar skull, or probably some other indelible designs to your skin. These parlors are sure to provide you with their expertise in all.

No matter how many great artists are there in Glasgow but choosing just one out of them can be pretty overwhelming. When it comes to getting inked, it is all about choosing the perfect one who has a great style, a comfortable environment to offer, and does not compromise on quality. These designs are going to be permanent so it is better worth all this research.

Although getting inked might sound like a really fun activity that might make your look cool, some aspects aren’t so cool about it too. So keep that in mind and check out these local parlors in Glasgow, who provide more than the tattoo services (We’re talking of piercings and cover-ups too!)
