going to have to drive west

you’re so helpful…

Best recommendation at the moment is to use Yelp as they have a good selection in Seattle with a lot of reviews.

Does anyone else have any experience using the tattooists in Washington?

I will post pics but I’m not going to put a link to his work as I don’t want to put him a blast on the internet – that’s not my style. any input would be greatly appreciated

Peculiar that you would want to make a cross more “dangerous”. On Easter Sunday at that.

by saying ‘dangerous’ I mean something more sharpen 😀 not danger 😀 😀

DO NOT go back to the person that did this to you

Why? Sure it’s not a $1200 tattoo from some big shot in Europe, but I like it.

Get it on your neck that seems to be the trend now.

That really made me laugh, especially because the tattoo I picked would normally go on a neck. Thanks for the laugh.

Looks like a good start to that one

Thanks buttwheat, I would have had it done in one sitting but ran out of time, now I can’t wait to see it done.

Remove the design request section

do you reckon replace it with an article with advice to pick the right artist and get them to do it?

the original idea for that section was that artists would be able to find people who want a design doing and hopefully make a bit of money from it.

Sounds normal. Lower legs are a bugger give it awhile your skin just went through some major trauma. Stay off your feet.

Thank you. I wish I could stay of my feet but my job is active which is not helping. I’m trying to sit as much as I can as standing is just a bit painful just now! Here’s hoping it stops hurting soon 👍

I usually give the tattooist the idea or the theme of the tattoo then let them draw it up.

and if you want a tattoo in the style in which he does not draw?or such did not happen?

You need to keep it dry go get some Tegaderm or similar product. Your tattoo is a wound and must be protected fro those harsh chemicals in the pool.

I actually did use tegaderm for the first few days I got in. Do u think I should keep using lotion or dry it out? I’ve read a ton of diff things. Thanks in advance.
