Can anyone recommend a place in Doha to get a tattoo?

I am looking to add to a tattoo that I already have. It is of a butterfly on my lower back. I want to have 4 small tattoos nearby to represent my 4 sons- not sure just yet what I might use (suggestions welcome) perhaps dragon flies or something similiar.

If you know of a clean shop, please advise.

Thanks in advance

EDIT: Kindly note having a tattoo done within Qatar is considered illegal.

A tatooist artist WILL be arrested in Qatar as carrying out the procedure is ILLEGAL and deportation guaranteed.

Some filipinos do the tattoos around Doha, but the cleanliness is questionable..... and in light of what you could get for the price of a tatoo it would be better to go on holiday and get a tattoo done there.

Also have a mate in Doha who has a hald finished tatt !!!

Good luck, and be happy

It's true, it is illegal to tattoo here. However, there are some places that do it, but I guess it depends who you know.
