I have tattoos with meaning, tattoos simply for the artwork and some of both. I like them all equally, nothing wrong with getting a tattoo simply for the artwork – it’ll probably end up having a meaning to you down the road anyway.

You can if you want. I’ve tried a lot of different ways in terms of how you treat a healing tattoo, this being one of them. It doesn’t matter if it rubs on your top, the ink is deep in your skin. Unless your top is made out of sandpaper, it shouldn’t matter.

Lucky Diamond Rich.

For the question – yes and no. I think Kat Von D is a babe, but a female version of LDR I wouldn’t find sexually attractive.
In terms of people having their entire body covered, I wouldn’t judge them for it.
I’m not a big fan of entire facial tattoos, everything else is ok though.

Personally, I know they’re a hassle to heal. It looks like it’s scarred, the skin is raised and continually flakes. Eventually (in my experience) it turns normal, but it takes a long time (over a month)

If you go on the ribs, you’ll be able to cover it a lot better, but you’d have to make it huge to look real good. To make it look real badass, you’d probably have to start from below the hip and go right up to the armpit, being quite wide too.

Tue, 30 Mar 2010 04:58:03 +0000

The colours aren’t going to be as bright as when you first got them – layers of skin heal over the ink, and skin’s not 100% transparent.
As for the lotions, I’ve heard Aquaphor is fine (haven’t used it myself), and any non-scented sort of lotion should be ok to use a few days later.
Most artists do a touch up free of charge.

Once it’s all healed up we’ll see what we can do, I can already tell there’s parts that are going to look majorly faded and scarred. Hopefully blasting more ink into it solves the problem.

Pick up a hammer (preferably with a heavy head on it) and clock yourself in the head. Awake a few days later with a new tattoo to go along with your cracked skull and swollen brain (which you might already have according to your taste in plain generic ‘off the net’ tribal designs ;))
Maybe that’s a bit harsh haha
