Nipple tattoo

Coffee Lounge Chat and inspiration

Hi just need some help. I had a new nipple done and its fine. But the lady at hospital who does the tattoo colour has not been successful as it keeps fading within weeks. She says I should have it done by a general tattooist who have stronger dyes. I am looking for a recommendation please. I am willing to travel. [Edited as per Forum terms and conditions]. Thank you!

Hi Delly. Yes I am aware this is a common problem and I don’t understand it either! I have now had a very good tattoo done by a lovely lady in Witney who runs a place doing cosmetic surgery like eyebrows and piercings etc. She works with
Breast cancer patients and does not charge for her service for this. She does it purely as a service to help women. I had a long way to get to her but turned it into a mini break near Oxford. It didn’t hurt either!

Hi Delly
It’s Gr for Great but grrr is appropriate at present!
I came across a news item about this lady in Witney and how she helps breast cancer ladies with nipple tattooing. I had looked at various other tattooist who all charged for this service. I was fine with that but this lady offered it for free which made me feel she was doing it out of kindness rather than £. I intended paying her and after resisting she said a donation to the charity she works with would be great. So I felt that I given something to say thank you. If anyone wants details let me know.
