WWJ's Marie Osborne reports that what you see at this event is eye-popping -- and, what you don't see can only be as good as your imagination.

Heather, from Skinfinity in Winterhaven, Florida said she's had plenty of unusual requests for tattoo designs in her career. 

Including one man who wanted a frog tattooed in a very private place.

"I'm a registered nurse, so it didn't worry me. He was a little more embarrassed than I was. He did well!"

So, did it hurt? "Of course... yes, it hurt," she said.

The expo runs Friday, February 25 through Sunday, February 27.  Get more information at this link.
