Odds are , if you live in Pensacola , and you are familiar with tattoos or piercings , you ’ ve heard of Hula Moon . Home to many talented artists , the shop is a mainstay of tattoo culture in Pensacola . If you make an appointment , you have your choice of many different styles and talents , and while all are great , I had the pleasure of sitting down with the talented and beautiful Lo , the only female artist in the shop .
Lo allowed me to pick her brain about her take on tattooing , the recent popularity of tattooing in the media , and life in general . Lo has been tattooing for six years , but she has always been an artist . The passion to tattoo didn ’ t strike until right before her short-lived apprenticeship after high school . After doing some graphic design and illustration , Lo worked at a tattoo shop that had formerly been the workplace of now co-worker , Famous Gabe .
