Tattooist Jason Ward is proof that decent people still exist in the
world. His pure kindness towards customer Suzie has turned the pair into
unexpected internet sensations.
Suzie has been visiting Jason’s tattoo parlour Muscle and Ink for
over three months now and they have developed a special bond. You see,
Suzie is not like any customer Jason has ever had before. Suzie has Down
syndrome. Every Friday Suzie wanders after work for her weekly tattoo
fix. But this isn’t your usual tattoo enthusiast. Suzie appears every
week baring a packet of temporary tattoo designs which she asks Jason to
apply with his expert tattoo skills.
After the first of these visits, Jason didn’t expect to see Suzie
back in his parlour and considered it just another day work. Little did
he know, his little act of kindness made Suzie’s day. And so, a weekly
ritual was born for Suzie and Jason. Now, every week Suzie appears at
the Parlour, her pack of temporary tattoos in hand. Jason leads her to a
chair, puts on his gloves and prepares her arm while Suzie smiles
excitedly. Suzie is especially a fan of Maori-style patterns.
This story warmed our hearts and deserved a special share in this
week’s blog. We commend Jason on a job well done and it just goes to
show that no matter what you may be dealing with – tattoos create a bond
and sense of happiness that sees no boundaries.
