Want to do something different? Prove yourself a rebel? Or simply want to be reminded of someone or something? Get adventurous and get yourself a tattoo—a royal eagle, colourful butterflies, or the image of someone you love. Couple of minutes is all it takes and, voila, what you see leaves you speechless. So if you are dying to sport one of these, head straight to Irezumi the tattoo parlour on College Road.

Naveen, the man behind the store, revolutionised this so-called “conservative” city with his one-of-a-kind tattoo parlour. Freedom of expression takes on vibrant hues, all in this swanky studio of his. Choices galore and a clean, funky setting are what make it so popular. From college students to professionals all haunt this place to flaunt a piece of body art.

Permanent tattooing can prove a tad heavy for your wallet but the sheer joy of watching a beautiful art take shape and add zing to your personality is well worth the price. Naveen has also perfected the art of body piercing, hence, step in so that you can sport a delicate solitaire for a nose stud or a funky ring for your bellybutton.

Grab your bag, and swing by.
