I’ve been there 8 times so far, last one was this past Saturday. Every time I get done there is less of a “huge thing”. I’m getting very used to the procedure of getting inked, getting the bandage put on, going home and staring at it as often as I can for the next week or so, putting the lotion on it, and then getting started on thinking about what I want next! Repeat.

How about everyone else?

I’m on my 11th sitting, just got back an hour or so. Mine are all on the same sleeve though, not individual tats. That said, the more I sit, the better I sit. The first time I barely made it through three hours. Today we went for 5 hours and I easily could have gone for more.

I love the process of healing too… It’s kind of facinating to watch the progress happen!

I’ve had 6, so far. (4 to complete my half sleeve)…wayyyy more expected in the future, as I have lots more ink planned. I love the whole process really..aside from spending 4 hours on the underneath part of my arm, lol..that sucked, but it completed the half sleeve, so it was worth it!

I know what you mean, that part of the arm is terrible, but the worst for me so far has got to be my chest.

Yeah, it was pretty brutal. And yeah, I’ve heard more than a few times that the chest is not very pleasant as well! But hey, all worth it in the end, right?..Pain is the smallest part of getting a tattoo, I think. It’s just pain, it ain’t gonna kill ya.

I have been in the chair 14 times but majority of that was for my back.

I took my mate for his first yesterday and he fainted as soon as the he heard the buzz of the needle so we will be re-arranging for this w/end.
