Peterpoose, your tattoos are absolutely amazing and what meanings you came up with actually really work 😛

Yoda, well, why not?! J/k, not everyone’s tattoos have meanings behind them. I just know a lot of people get them specifically for meanings and I thought it would be a fun little thread

Thanks a lot 🙂

Ok mine don’t mean anything so I will make a story up lol

This is to show humans, time and the way technology is heading.

This is computers, future and machines taking over. We are doomed!

The tree and crows symbolise a choice, a path, a fork in the road and crossroads. Which will we choose?!

This reflects the pain and suffering we will…[Read more]

Yep looking for a better way and this is the method that the artist recommends for his art. If we didn’t look for better ways of doing stuff we would still be living in caves.

I have heard from people that haven’t tried this method that it’s bad because it traps all the bacteria in there but at the same school of…[Read more]

I used a similar method for my last 2 tattoos and they have healed amazingly well. In fact, people sometimes think they are brand new, un-healed tattoos.

The method is slightly different to what you posted, buttwheat.

Well, the two butterflies aren’t going to be visually crammed, but it represents me and my husband (our marriage), colors (the kids), butterflies/rainbow (song lyric). Maybe that’s not so bad.

I was told by Victor to leave my wrap on for 24 hours. I woke up in the middle of the night with a fever and feeling quite ill. The tattoo just felt like it was festering bacteria or something under the heat.

Thanks, msmercury! I have the idea for my 2nd pretty set, just wanting to make sure it goes on the right spot! I almost feel like the next one has too much meaning crammed into it!

What foods are good for the skin paticulary?
