replied to the topic Healing – Really, How Long? in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 12 years, 7 months ago
If getting tattooed in the exact same spot, you need to let it rest for a little bit. Usually three weeks is plenty. (f.ex if you do lines + shading one session, color another..)
But different spots? Whenever you feel up for it. I see no reason whatsoever to do six weeks between different tattoos..
Except maybe if it’s been a 12 hour session and…[Read more] -
replied to the topic Bottom of Toe Tattoos in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 12 years, 7 months ago
Here is the thing; Yes, a lot of people have finger/knuckle tattoos. Knuckle tattoos don’t necessarily need too much touch ups, finger tattoos do. Most knuckle and ankle tattoos can stand for years and years. Totally depends.
And; A lot of people have stopped doing finger tattoos. Rihanna and those damn mustache tattoos made just about every…[Read more] -

Camden is.. Unique. You have a main street, packed with shops. At just about every corner there is also different markets. Some of varying quality. At the top, you’ll reach Stables Market, which can be…[Read more]

Central London will have more high street stores, and therefor, be more expensive. But most the shopping is located there or at Westfield, so it would be the most convenient for you in regards of only having little time.
For shopping in London for friends etc that aren’t all freaks like me, I prefer to just start up at Oxford street if I know…[Read more]

Thanks ^^
Professionals def know how to make you look best! It feels funny standing there with your head slightly tilted, slightly to the side, hand uncomfortably twisted and hardly being able to stand straight, but somehow it looks great on camera! I’ve mostly been shot by people I know, and they’ve all been great at making me feel comfortable…[Read more]

Haha, oh of course! Oh well, just for the hell of it I made a new album featuring some of the pics that professionals have taken of me over the years.
Oh, and back shot; The back piece has been finished now, and new things added to my other arm. (and for those looking very closely, yes that is a scar in the middle of the lily, cleaverly covered.…[Read more]

Right now I’m getting quite a bit of work done this year, so I don’t get that feeling ;D

Just so happens that I can’t enjoy sun or swimming most of the year, that week was actually the first time I’ve been swimming in two years ๐
So yeah, I wasn’t gonna miss out on that. The swimming turned out to be no problem at all. I waited until the wound had closed, and I did ask several artists about it, and they said it’s not recommended, but…[Read more] -

Just some input from the anarchist who doesn’t follow rules very well… ;D
I just got a new tattoo. Fairly big, took about five hours. I’m simple; I cleaned it, and applied A&D (because it works well on me), whenever needed and when I remembered to. Day after I got it, I covered it in aqua proof bandages and went swimming and sun bathing.

Just remember that you’re gonna need to pull that dress up when you get tattooed ;D
Don’t have to hurt ๐ I wore jeans when I got my stomach and hips tattooed. They just weren’t too tight around the waist, so it worked out alright ๐
Lived in sweatpants that next week though..! -
replied to the topic 1st tattoo in the forum Inked Skin 12 years, 7 months ago
yeah, no one really likes to do that. But I’d figure out why he won’t do it, and see if you can do anything to change his mind if you really really want some.
Seriously. His limitations should not be yours! -
replied to the topic I bit the bullet in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 12 years, 7 months ago
What to wear; Depends how much you wanna cover up! :p You could always just lie there in a bra and panties.
Also depends on temperature… I’d just go with a loose top that can be pulled up, and loose pants like sweatpants or a pair of shorts in a similar material. And if it extends so much down on your hip that it reaches your pantyline, seamless…[Read more] -

I’ve always covered up my tattoos when they were fresh. Except my newest one, and it was worse having it out in the open all the time.
I live in a cold country and usually get tattooed during winter, so kinda got no choice. Never been a problem for me.
But I have had infections, scabbing and all that. It happens! ๐

Ankle; Not too much pain, but straight across the achilles heel sure wasn’t pleasant. I might have screamed a little at that point.
