Top notch shop! Such warm and thoughtful greeting when first walked in. The shop apprentice (as I found out) works the front counter and is delightful....wonderful customer service...none of the usual weird surly tattoo shop customer service. This cutie knows how to greet customers. I've had a tooth gem and a tattoo and both were easy breezy with kind, gentle and clean gloved hands. Highly recommended.
Long post incoming. I don't even really know how to write this post. I don't know how to find the correct words when this tattoo changed my life so much. Just know that no matter how I might try this post will not do justice to Dan and Lighthouse Tattoos. Book your appointments now, that's the best advice I can give you. I'll start with the back story. I have psoriasis, an autoimmune disease where essentially your skin cells build up too quickly and your skin turns into scaly red itchy patches. There is no cure, only treatment, and I can tell you from experience it sucks. It itches so much that I would frequently wake up with bloody sheets from literally scratching my skin off in my sleep. I started laser treatment for it about two and years ago and it has made a massive difference. The once massive patches have shrunk down more than two times their original size and the smaller patches are mostly gone. And I'm no longer itchy most days For all of this I was and still am very very thankful. However I had patches all over my body, especially on my arms and legs. I guess now is a good time to mention I'm one of the fairest people on this earth. You can compare me to the crappy translucent white paper they used to give us to write with in grade school. So basically everything shows up on my skin, I scar really easy and unfortunately my psoriasis left a lot of ugly looking scars all over my body. I'm not like the most girly of girls but people I didn't know would ask what it was, like I would possibly give it to them. And like I get it, it looks like a rash, but it's not contagious in any way, and rather than dealing with the embarrassment of it all and trying to explain it or the scars (having anxiety didn't help the situation) I have spent the last five years hiding, covering my entire body up ALL YEAR LONG. Including triple digit summers. Yes I know this on me but it was not something I was getting over on my own or with therapy. I would try clothes on that showed a little more skin and I'd end up in tears refusing to leave my house like that because I was worried about the stares and the questions and how I would answer. Or I would leave somewhere because of a reaction if I'd managed to get myself out. I felt gross to everyone even though it was not contagious. And I really do understand why people have to be concerned, I am not angry at anyone. The answer was to hide for me, it was easier and safer and I got comfortable there. Anyways about a year after I started treatment I started wondering about a sleeve. That is when I met Dan at light house tattoos. A lot to be said about Dan. One of the coolest dudes you will ever meet. Family man who is just super down to earth and real about life and the world we live in. He's a giver in the end, and in my opinion strives to make the world more beautiful for the people in it. Rare to meet just an all around good person, and he's made sure to surround himself with good people in his shop. Anyone you see there will be the same. Not all artists will work with you if you have psoriasis, one thing to note. It can flair up and damage the tattoo, so artists often don't want to work with it. Furthermore tattooing itself can actually onset psoriasis. Any damage to the skin can onset it and it's hard to imagine more damage than a sleeve to skin. Dan however wasn't phased. We planned to go around the areas (my elbows for example still have somewhat large active psoriasis scales) with active psoriasis and cover the scars with the rest. I would continue my treatment as usual (no laser treatment for the first month of healing for me minus the elbow that wasn't tattooed at all) and treat any new spots that came up. Not only did I come to this man with an autoimmune disease and scarring and a maze of psoriasis to work around but I also only had an idea of what I wanted. I wanted an Alice in wonderland sleeve with some of the artwork in the book. Essentially it's very extensive line work in all shades
