Business
We were lucky to experience what Ladi B offers. Jordyn chose to get a helix piercing. Only two seconds of slight pain, and voila! She had some new bling. It was so special that Cristina decided to get her first tattoo at the studio. She chose a small semicolon behind her ear, which turned out exactly as she wanted. As for myself, I decided to get a Hawaiian pin-up girl holding a ukulele in an oval frame and a simple linework tattoo. Katlego did an outstanding job on the shading. It looks even better than how I envisioned it!
