One good way to decide who will ink you is to talk to people whose tattoos you like. If you have tattooed friends, ask them - many will be passionate about "their guy". If you see random people on the street with gorgeous tattoos and they look reasonably friendly, ask them! I've done this before and they've always been very happy to tell me where they go, as well as rolling up their sleeves/pantlegs so I could admire their less-visible work. I'm sure there are dozens of good tattoo shops in Boston.
Where it will go is up to you, but it's always good to ask the artist what they think as this is their business and they tend to know what will work where. Also, you can take a starting image or just an idea and have them work up an original drawing for you. After all, good tattoo artists are just that - artists.
I would love to go with you when you get it done!
PS You could totally get an aloha monkey as a companion piece.
