replied to the topic Tattoo ideas in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 5 months ago
There are TONS of different options! I’m working on a half sleeve with the state flowers my kids and husband. The flower for one of my kids isn’t so cute, so I used the state butterfly. I’ve seen people use the flowers from their birth months and one person I saw used the star alignment for the day they themselves was born. I know I kinda…[Read more]

replied to the topic leaking ink when using A&D ointment? in the forum Tattoo Aftercare 13 years, 6 months ago
I think you’ll hear several different things on aftercare, but I have a business/appointment card with aftercare instructions on it. Says to wash the tattoo with warm soapy water, and let it air dry. Apply Eucerin cream three times daily (don’t cake it on, it needs some air to heal). Don’t pick or scratch at it. Keep it out of the sun for 3…[Read more]

I hope you find what you are looking for, and I’m sorry no one on here was able to help you answer some questions. Maybe if you go to some local shops, there will be someone who is not so uppity that they will be willing to work with you, or at least answer your questions. I’m no help, as I know nothing lol. I’ve just been on here recently…[Read more]

replied to the topic New guy needs help please ?? in the forum Tattoo Ideas 13 years, 6 months ago
Maybe you could look at some art that shows some of these dragons, and see what surrounds them? You could change up some of the style, or maybe it will pop up some ideas. Just a thought. I just googled dragon art, and it came up with some really cool images. Lots of different backgrounds.

So I bit the bullet and “broke up” with my artist. Thanks to all the encouraging words and help! I have an appointment on the 12th to see a new guy, who specializes in traditional tattoos, and I’ve learned my lesson and will not allow needle to touch skin without proof of beauty. Thanks again!

replied to the topic Dr numb – scam or not? in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 13 years, 6 months ago
So, my mom was going to get her eyebrows tatted on, and so I was anxious to how painful that would be. To my disappointment, she said she didn’t feel a thing. Sort of hypocritical that she is so against me getting my body art, but it was ok to get her eyebrows done. So that’s why i was disappointed lol. Ok a little vindictive, but…[Read more]

replied to the topic Question about a sleeve in progress in the forum Tattoo Questions and Experiences 13 years, 6 months ago
So, after reading all the posts, I’m trying to decide whether I want to give this guy a chance to draw on the existing pic I posted here and show me what an end result would look like or not. He has not done that so far, just said “I’ll make it look cool” and “I’ll make it look like the picture.” I’d happily go to another artist, however, I feel…[Read more]

I’m a big girl, I can take it if someone wants to get shitty with me if it meant my arm was going to be beautiful but I’m not going to smile and say whatever you say and walk out with a shit tattoo. He said it was not possible. Ok fine, but my mom whipped out a sketch in 5 minutes, and she ain’t no tattoo artist, and an amateur artist as it is.…[Read more]

I’d really appreciate an artist or two to take a look at the picture and see if the outline can be added to in order to make them into roses. A little help please?

Did you see the pic in my album? I’m just thinking it wouldn’t be hard to get a little creative and add to the outline. I’m aware that the outline can’t change.

replied to the topic Tattoo between shoulder and chest – will it stretch because of everyday movements? in the forum Tattoo Questions and Experiences 13 years, 6 months ago
I have a nautical star that I got 2 years ago in that same spot. No stretching or anything weird and I am uhhh… stacked to put it nicely. It still looks completely normal.
