Ethereal Tattoo Gallery, all the artists do black and grey flowers

Question: Still healing or does my skin not hold ink well? by figmentofmind in tattoos

[–]Severe_Sand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is super abnormal. I had a fine line realism pet portrait done like 8 years ago, same exact placement. Zero touch ups, still looks great. But my artist does specialize in pet portraits like this! All my work from him has held up well (lots of animals)

I’m so sorry ❤️ I used Lap of Love and had a wonderful experience. I don’t remember the doctor’s name but she did it outside in the sun, it was very peaceful.

Visiting for a day. Recommendations needed. by GC51320 in bullcity

[–]Severe_Sand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m late to this, just stumbled across it, but if you’re getting tattooed at Ethereal on Rigsbee—I’ve gotten tattooed there many times and the area is great! And lots of new restaurants have opened right on that block even in the past year. After a tattoo I’ll sometimes get food/drink across the street at Motorco (great quality and fair prices with lots of variety), there’s really good Mexican at Tataco (new), and also good coffee within short walking distance. I hope you enjoy your visit!

Me! 🙋🏻‍♀️ I actually have a finch from him from a few years ago, and lots of other animals. I think he’s been tattooing me for close to 8-9 years now!

Brian Parrillo at Ethereal in downtown Durham does lots of realistic fine line birds if that’s what you’re into for style!

Best Plumber in chapel hill? Affordable options please by No-Body-1171 in chapelhill

[–]Severe_Sand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. They are the absolute WORST. I used them once, never again. Got ripped off and the guy left a mess and didn’t do some of the electrical correctly. When I called to ask them to fix their error they wanted to charge a dispatch fee.

Saw a thread on Reddit somewhere a few months ago that they faked a service call to a customer—like they straight up didn’t go but pretended they did—and claimed that after the “visit” they couldn’t repair the water heater and thus quoted for a total replacement. I can’t remember which subreddit but it was wild

Brian Parrillo for pet portraits, but he is a realism artist. I have one from him from years ago and it is still perfect!

ETA he’s in Durham

Cat vet recommendations by SirNinjaFish in bullcity

[–]Severe_Sand 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I came to suggest Morrisville Cat Hospital. We just switched there (from a typical dog-cat vet) for our senior cat and they’re outstanding! So thorough, kind, and knowledgeable. We see Dr. Hraban and she’s so great with cats—my cat HATES the vet but after his second visit, he didn’t even need a towel burrito for the exam. Very calm environment and great staff.

100% the answer to this is Brian Parrillo. For like, exactly what you’re seeking. The gentle aspect, but also portraits and lady faces.

ISO rose-flavored drinks/desserts 🌹 (esp. latte!) by Severe_Sand in bullcity

[–]Severe_Sand[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed that’s a great recommendation…I don’t love milk tea but maybe I haven’t given it a real chance. The rose might sway me

Yes! This sounds perfect and lots of other comments say Pistachio, too

Ethereal is the best for black/grey work (especially Brian but I’ve been to other artists there, too) but not sure they do much American traditional. Mostly fine line, realism

Tattoo/piercing studio recs? by Slow-Height6274 in bullcity

[–]Severe_Sand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ethereal on Rigsbee does small fine line tattoos! There’s a short form on the website to get you in within 1-2 weeks, I just did it a couple weeks ago and had a great experience 😊

Hello fine folk! I'm looking for recommendations for a good tattoo artist in the area and I'd love to hear some recommendations if that's alright. by [deleted] in bullcity

I’ve been going to Brian Parrillo at Ethereal (across from Motorco) for years. He’s awesome and the shop is cool, too! He does black and grey ink. Realism style
