im not a fan of any of them apart from the classic kanji .
but as this will be your 1st tattoo i would suggest you stay away from the back of your neck or behind your ear until you really think it through wether you want your tattoo to be visible all the time .

I really like your ink. The girl is very cool, and the dragon is well done. As for the tribal, I’m in the same boat. Got several that I will eventually incorporate into a real piece of art 😆

The hip might work or upper thigh.

Just a piece of advice: I can understand hiding tattoos if they affect your livelihood or your ability to support your family. However, if you are still afraid of what friends or family may think or do if they see your tattoo, you may want to rethink getting a tattoo. I speak from experience. My family hates my…[Read more]

Welcome. What do you have in mind for your first piece?

Welcome. Looking forward to seeing the design. I use photobucket to upload pics. I also have a job that requires “hidden” tatttoos. So I feel your pain.

Welcome. Sounds like a great idea. Of the two choices you put, go with the back for your first work.

Welcome. I am very sorry for your loss. What about a cherry blossom tree with some of the blossoms blowing off. Symbolizing the fragility of life

Welcome. I don’t know where you are or what career you are pursuing. The only drawback to the 3/4 sleeve is that it may limit your job options. Sounds like a great tattoo. I like the style, and I have a 1/2 sleeve dragon. Good luck

Any good moisturizing lotion should be fine since it is totally healed. I use Lubriderm on mine every now and then

I look forward to seeing it. What are you getting? And trust me, it’s not hype. The ribs are brutal. Good luck

Very nice. I’m considering a Hanya in my future

Is this the one?

Welcome. I would like more details also.

I’m saving my backpiece for a while. I’ve got some ideas, but I’m taking my time with it. Given that I’m a banker, I have a limited canvas. So the backpiece will have to be very well thought out

Looks very good. Keep us posted ont he progress
