Me and my partner had a tatoo done when we went to Bulgaria last year, I had one done at the bottom of my back and my partner had a big one on his arm (first one for him and it took 6 and a half hours). The guy who did ours, Teodore, is based in the Royal Park hotel in Elenite he is excellent, he will do any tatoo that you want and he has lots of different designs. I think ours cost about £150 which is very cheap considering mine took about three hours and my partners took six and a half hours. He is very clean and very friendly and I hope he is still there next year because my partner wants to pay him another visit. Oh and they didn't scab at all he gave us some special cream to keep on applying.

Ive read a few threads in the forum about tattooists in Sunny Beach and wondered if any of you knew if there are any tattooists in Golden Sands and where they are located ? Recomendations would be good, along with prices.

It's my hubby who is wanting a tattoo, wondering if he could take along a pic of the image he wants ?

Hope you can help,

Nursy,

Just turn right when you come out of the lower door of theYavor and it will bring you to the Gibraltar, there you are exactly where June describes.

all my family ad tattoos done in the hotel maritsa/ meridian. he was very gentle and would go onto the computer to find exactly what you wanted oryou could draw what you wanted and he would do it. he is very clean and cheap. you could have the doctor inject you so you dont feel anyhing for 30levs. no scabbing or bleeding he really is excellent! :D :D :D

hiya tattooed people
i had my tattoo done in bulgaria by the tattooist in the side of the kuban hotel
his studio was as clean as an operating theatre

my only gripe with my tattoo was how long it took to do, i was in the chair for 1 hr 45 mins to have 6 chinese letters done, if it wasnt for me daughter keep coming checking on me i would have gone to sleep

i spoke to other people who had had tattoos done, and they say it was the length of time in the chair the tattooists were to slow
i think they charge you for the time it takes to do the tattoo rather than for the tattoo itself

i would have another one done there though :lol:

Hi shushu,

The 'Search' facility on this site is very useful to help with many queries that you may have, e.g. there's a two-page thread on tattoos HERE

I don't know much about tattoos, but I have read reports of the temporary henna type causing serious allergic reactions and scarring. Anyone contemplating these should be most cautious.

hi all my family had tattoos last year at the hotel meridian. he was excellent, he could get you any picture from the computer or you could draw what you wanted and he would do it perfect! his prices were good and no one had any scabbing or soreness. you can even have a pain killer injection at the doctor based at the hotel for 30levs. we are going back end of june for more. hope this helps. the meridian is in sunny beach.

Shushu, I had a tattoo done last year in Golden sands , but I have been going to Bulgaria for some years now & have made alot of Bulgarian friends & they took me to the tattooist that they go too, but I think if you see the needles coming out the packets & you also see the dry serilizing equipment then you'll be ok ......the quality of work is the best I have ever seen & I would never get a tattoo done anywhere else as the quality is out of this world.

Is the Meridian easy to find in Sunny Beach? Both my son and myself may have one done on our last day of holiday.

We have had them done before in the UK. Does anyone know if they ID people as my 16 yr old wants one as well but I am not sure if I will let him yet but that's another story? :roll:
Thanks
