Hair ‘N Tattoos
by Tattoosue on Jan.31, 2010, under News, Tattoos-Body Art
Maybe it’s the squeeze everyone is feeling these days, but I’ve just read about a second example of two small businesses combing into one business establishment. I admit – the first was in a book I was reading. The union brought on by friendship and a need for a job by all three friends. One third of an old house a book store, one third an art gallery, and one third a retro beauty shop. Then I read a similar story but it’s non-fiction and it was a marriage of a beauty shop and a tattoo parlor located in Brooklyn called Glamour Garage. The person responsible is Rebecca Faye the owner of Hello Beautiful Hair Salon. She loves tattoos and sports quite a few in addition to her sexy staff. Visit her site and show support for her business if you live in the Brooklyn area.
Rebecca feels the two worlds are similar – each is used as a way to sport your individuality. Letting your freak flag fly if you will. Outstanding idea. I would guess that people that may have been hesitating before making the big move to WALK into a real tattoo parlor will find this type of transition easier.

I opened my first tattoo studio in 1986.
It was a combo Tattoo + Hairstyling + Photography studio.
I had to ditch the styling after less than a year.
I again tried combining them in 1993 by having them as t semi seperate things sharing the same fron lobby.
It worked fine.
Closed that shop in 03 to travel.
I currently am employed as a tattooist at a spa, salon, piercing, retail place.

I have never seen a place like this before. I think the concept is awesome! When I was looking at getting my first tattoo I was a little hesitant about going in a real tattoo parlor, even though the people were great, I was still pretty nervous, a place like this is great for people like me! I also think working at a place like that would be very cool, because there are so many different kinds of things going on, all art related in some way.
