Also just a quick question my leg/ankle is swollen. How long does that usually last for?
Any suggestions on how to make sure it doesn’t turn into a problem?

Same thing as with any swelling. Elevate it whenever possible, and ice pack for 10 minutes several times a day. With a clean towel or cloth between the…[Read more]

I’ve had swelling on several occasions. The worst was when I had a reaction to a “trial” of a numbing agent. The swelling lasted for weeks. Usually it…[Read more]

Do I get any points since he only did shading on the insides of my arm/bicep. 🙂

I’ve been afraid to get ink on my inner bicep, there’s something I want there but I admit I’ve purposely avoided the area. Your tattoo is looking good so far, though, most of the line work is very clean.

I have two half sleeves, both of which go to the insides of my arm up close to the arm pit. Yea, doesn’t feel good but it’s not so bad!

Thanks Mr. Buttwheat

Just so I know what to look for..what are your reason that this place doesn’t make the cut?

Their work isn’t very good! Look for an artist not a studio.

Thanks guys for all the help!

I use the “dry Wrap” method. Get your tattoo done with a non-petroleum based lubricant. I use redemption, but there are others. When the tattoo is finished it gets…[Read more]
