Looking for a vegan tattoist. Midlands/South West

[Big Good Wolf]

I want to get a tattoo and would prefer to have it done by a vegan.
I've seen one list of vegan tattoists and they were all in London or Edinburgh. I would like to find one near Worcestershire. Anywhere between Birmingham and Bristol would do.
I went to a local tattooist to have a look. He seems pretty good, but I had to explain what vegan ink was. I would rather deal with someone with more interest in what I'm getting tattoed and why if possible.

There is one place in Kidderminster that I know VBB's used but dont think they are vegan, just use vegan inks? Not aware of any vegan tattoists in this area?

I've got in touch with a mate who should know, just waitin to hear back from her! I'll give you a shout when i do!

I PMd LGBunny and she uses the same one in Kidderminster. Bit of a waiting list, she's currently taking bookings for January.

Depending on what gogs or anyone else comes up with, I'll probably go for the guy in Bewdley. He's OK with me supplying my own ink.
Next question, where do I buy vegan ink ?

[gogs67]

Right, as far as she knows there's no vegan tattooist in that area as she's got a guy who travels up from Wales and another from the midlands to get work done here.
Am just waiting to hear from here about how she sources her ink, whether it's trade only and if she could get you some through that or whether you can just order it yourself!

[gogs67]

Right, her ink is trade only but she's gonna put me in touch with a guy who bought his own to get some work done and i'll try and find out from him where he got it!

Thanks for going to the trouble, gogs.
Hopefully others will find the information useful too.
