I feel awkward wearing shorts( there should be a meme about having no leg tattoos and full sleeves like the ones where the guy skips leg day at the gym) Been working on my arm sleeves for a decade now. Is it weird that I’m naked below the knees? It’s time. After this next one I’m going to start focusing on real estate south of the border.

Yes it could but chances are that it will become a big blob.
Why is everyone so adverse to lasering.

I don’t want to sound like an asshole but I believe the answer is ignorance. That’s the main reason I wanted to go ahead and get mine started….so I wouldn’t be. Granted with all the blues and greens it would take more…[Read more]

Anything you add to it is goin to make the original work look old and faded. Plan on having it reworked at some point.

Ten days out and I am starting to see some very small red dots under the skin. Not sure what to think. If they become any more pronounced I’ll call them. I’d post a picture but you couldn’t see it anyway.

As long as they’re not hippy nature/animal lovers. Id make sure they aren’t first.

I agree. The tattoo is forever. Reschedule one of them.

Very nice.

how many sessions will this one need?

6-8 for complete removal
2-4 for cover up.

A few more observations. While it appears fully healed it is incredibly light sensitive. Also I think it’s still getting better/lighter.

what kind of laser machine are they using ?

Revlite si is all I know.

The guy doing it travels all around Georgia and probably did 10 sessions while I was there. Hes definitely making a killing.
It’s worth it though. It stopped hurting after a couple hours. Now it’s almost back to normal.

Ok so this is after 4 days. Swelling and redness is completely gone. No blistering or complications in the slightest.
The tattoo now look 10 years older. Most of the heavy black within the tree/limbs has lightened significantly.
I am happy with the results and will probably have another treatment in a couple months

As long as you like it! That’s all that matters.

Laser treatments to lighten it. I just had my first laser treatment yesterday.

We would need to see it to give constructive advice.

Omg omg omg omg omg!!!!!!!

Just landed an appointment with Russ Abbott. Number frickin one on my list.

Omg omg omg!!

Now I gata figure out how to pay for it. Lmao! They want me in late September. Short notice!

Oh and it cost me $150.

He was like “nuke it”

First session over. Took about three minutes. Feels exactly what someone with a rubberband popping you ten times per second would feel like. The shading came out pretty good. The solid black “limbs” are still pretty dark. But he told me my body will absorb more of it so it’ll get slightly better. 6-7 sessions for total…[Read more]

Melt black rubber until it becomes powder, mix with water, this is how they make ink in prison! 😸

One time this guy tried to tell me about using a lighter to burn a saltine cracker box and mixing the char with baby oil. I giggled and walked away.

Nice video.
