Well, I’m with Sam. Your best bet is probably going to be a laser, and start over. Also wondering f it couldn’t be worked into a huge tiger, but not sure you want such a large tattoo.

Really eh? I mean, it’s the design I wanted more or less…just doesn’t look 100% how I pictured it for some reason…I don’t really…[Read more]

That is a lovely tattoo.

As some folks on here know, I’m a pediatric nurse. I think this would be a great example to show grieving parents special ways if they ask how others have grieved losses in non-traditional ways. This is beautifully done and a lovely way never to forget.

That is awesome and thank you for what…[Read more]

A lot of tattooed people hear the, “Oh, you’ll regret that when you’re ____.” I have to say, I fall into the category of no regrets so far, but like you, I always had well considered reasons for WHY I got the tattoo. Even my first one, which is so dinky and now isn’t as lovely as the second two, I still love.

Yeah I…[Read more]

Comparing Al Capone to Charles Manson is like comparing a paper cut to a gunshot wound. And I’m done with this thread.

This tattoo captures many of the reasons people with tattoos get bad stereotypes.

This is dumb, but I wouldn’t want to be alone with someone who had a tattoo like that. And this is from a person who worked in a drug house (as a nurse).

It’s something I may offer again with a different artist… You never know when someone may jump on sterile supplies, but I’d always do cash. I know if I was tattooing people, I’d be tempted to treat it as a sterile procedure because people can be so… icky. 🙁

Yeah that would be cool if someone else…[Read more]

Cash tipper as well, and I was always taught good service warrants 20+%.

Now, since I do medical stuff, I asked my last tattooist if he would like any wound care supplies: chucks, skin prep, tape for sensitive skin, sterile gloves for especially yucky folks (I almost always have a wound care bag in the car), and he…

From a medical POV, that is a terrible idea.

Just exfoliate lightly with a washcloth and antibacterial soap. If you squeeze, you risk opening a sore up and taking ink with you.

Thanks Gray!!!!! I have been doing just that – all is well – blemish is gone – no damage done – If there was damage my artist would have touched…[Read more]

I wouldn’t tattoo my face for a million bucks.

However, I like this face tattoo. It highlights her gentleness, her connection with the detail of nature, and natural femininity. Nothing scary or unpleasant, although a few minute details aren’t thrilling me.

No offence but your seeing something I can’t!!
