Me and Holly (to the left) who wanted to pierce the side of her lip went to Dublin Ink to get it fixed. I figured the standards of the place wouldn't be as great as the piercing studios I've been to in Sweden, since the price was so low. And of course I was right, the standards in Sweden are much higher but it didn't really look as bad as it could.
The guys who work there are deadly, the studio looks really cool and they've done some really fierce tattoos. What I noticed though was that they didn't ask us any questions about our health, alcohol or smoking habits - which they always do in Stockholm. The piercer, a girl from an Irish TV-show, drew my snakebites on very uneven (you make small dots with a pen where you're gonna put the piercings) and didn't even see it until I pointed it out AND she told both me and Holly to take deep breaths after pushing the needle through our lips, haha. Other from that it seemed grand.
The day after both our piercings fell out though. The balls of tour studs were lost so we had to go back and get new ones - only to have to go back a few days later again to get more balls, since they fell out again. They guys there are really cool though, so it's hard to get mad at them. But if this would have happened in Sweden you'd probably be given some compensation the second time it happened and they would have cleaned it properly before putting new ones on. The third time they would have.. nah wait, it would never happen a third time if you got it done in Sweden. They are so careful, clean and precise. Although the price is twice as much.. Tough call.
So yesterday was the fifth time a ball fell off and I just heard Holly's was lost again as well. So now I guess we're going back again. They're lucky to be so good looking.
Right before getting pierced at Dublin ink. A little nervous!
This is Rakan. He's the one who always gets to put new balls on our studs... And he happens to be my future husband.
