Tattoo Artist Loyalty: Is It OK To Stray?

Today's Tattoo Corner question comes from Jonathon and is one that I presume many tattoo collectors struggle with from time-to-time. I know that my perspective on the issue has changed quite a bit from my earliest experiences in the tattoo chair. He asks:

Q) Hey Jinxi, Do you think it is best to remain loyal to one tattoo artist for most of your work? Is it an insult to an artist if you are tattooed by various people? - Jonathon

You can read my answer here regarding artist loyalty. There are, of course, many factors when it comes to making decisions pertaining to choosing and staying with a tattoo artist. After you check out the Q&A, please share your own experiences when it comes to this situation. How do you decide who you go to and how long do you stay?
