Hey guys,

Can you all help me judge the COLOR work of this studio I may go to?
http://www.crayontattoo.com/index.html that’s their website.
Let me know which artist you think is good with vibrant colors.

I may go there for my touch-up and for a new tattoo.

let me know your opinions!!

ALSO, the artists who helped me with my tattoo healing, they told me my tattoo may stay milky/onion layer for quite some time, it still has that! Is it a bad idea to get a new tattoo before that onion/milky layer is gone? Will the healing of a new tattoo take away from the healing of the old one?

I don’t plan to get my touch-up for several months at the recommendation of an artist.
How long would you guys wait? He said 3-5 months. What do you all think??

THANKS GUYS! I’ll click THANK for anyone who helps to answer all these questions! 🙂

Winged Angel,

Thanks! I visited another tattoo shop and they couldn’t believe my artist did this. They know of him and his shop and know of his experience (30 years!) Crazy.

He also gave me no verbal aftercare instructions, despite knowing this was my first tattoo. Just a little internet printed sheet so my over-moisturizing was a common mistake, IMO.

Scabs are finally coming off now, day 17 I think. Now, I have a few pits in the green and blue areas that will need touched up when they smooth out, hopefully without too much scarring.

I’ve been thinking about something though.

The guy “readied” his area before we entered. When we entered he asked where I wanted it. It’s on the back of my ankle/lower shin area. I told him it was my first tattoo and I was nervous and he kept telling me it would hurt real bad there and he’d rather do the inside of my ankle. He was very adament (sp?) and seemed mad when I told him I knew where I wanted it and if pain was my only concern, I’d deal wth it. I think part of this may have been due to the position I had to lay in, in a chair not made for it.

Do you guys think his “machine” wasn’t set up for tattooing that part of my body? It was a late evening/last tattoo of the night type of situation. It’s getting better, but he disgusts me. Or is my body just THAT DAMN SENSITIVE?
