Hello

I’m new to this forum and looking forward to having a look around. I’m a tattoo enthusiast and hoping to get some tips and stories from the rest of you.

Welcome to the forum 🙂

Got any pics of your works? 🙂

Welcome! I don’t know about interesting stories, but there are a number of interesting characters here. They have taught me a lot, and kept me laughing at the same time.

I like pie

I can confirm this.

I had that one time where I got invited to a new years eve party at a tattoo parlor by a guy with his entire face tattooed, got really drunk on captain morgan with another artist, got tattooed (both me and the artist completely wasted), and somehow ended up getting a job out of it. And a ripped dress.

Or that one time I got tattooed by a guy I’d hooked up with earlier and at an especially painful spot exclaimed, loudly, to the joy of the entire tattoo shop “You finally figured out how to make me scream!”

I can give you stories.

Welcome to the forum!
1) No text.
2) No tribal (unless you’re Polynesian)
3 Get a great artist.
4)Tip well.
5) Use petroleum free ointments and lotions (no A&D!)
6) What ointments you use, use very little!
7) Use the dry wrap method of healing a new tattoo.
8) Do not pick at your new tattoo.
9) Keep your tattoos (new & old) out of the sun.
10) Pitch your ideas to us here before you get inked.

Keep us posted, and send lots of pictures.
