SF bay area: tattoos

SF Bay Area peeps: Where/to whom do you go to get tattoos?

Not in the area, but curious. Are you getting one? If yes, of what? :)

I really love Andy Lowlife who's at Tattoo Santa Cruz now (he did the heart on my chest), and the folks at Idle Hand in San Francisco are pretty rad too!

Also, the best person/place to go to very much depends on what you want to get and what kind of style you are looking for. So any specifics can definitely help direct you towards the best person (e.g. 'something old school/traditional' or 'a photorealistic portrait' or 'an elegant black/grey design' etc.)
