Tattooing & Body Art En Vogue in Lahore

Tattoos and piercing have come into fashion among the young as tattoo parlours and piercing studios open in Lahore, despite rebuke by parents and ridicule by passers-by, learnt Daily Times. A tattoo artist said mainly 14 to 28 year old boys and girls and some older clients get maps, dragons, images, reptiles, alphabets, comic heroes and flowers tattooed on different parts of their bodies. Naveed Ahmed, the owner of shops X-Tra 1 and 2 in Defence and Cavalry Ground, told Daily Times that he had tattooed 900 people so far, but body piercing was more popular.
