replied to the topic Thinking of getting a tattoo. Placement help. in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 17 years ago
Hi
I like the idea a lot and I think it is something that people really do need to understand. We as a species tend to wander around in our little bubbles and spend far too much time looking inwards and not out.
As for placement –
If you do go on the arm I would suggest horizontal as this will allow for better sizing and flow of the characters…[Read more]

Hi
The shop looks great!
Are you having a big opening ceremony (tattoo the local mayor or something ๐ ).
KH she is in NZ but hey sling your arse over to God’s Chosen Land and I will buy you some real beer and you will have a place to crash.
Also when are you ‘leaking’ your amateur tape on the net then?

Thanks Peeps
I was actually near tears today because it means I cannot complete my dream of a backpiece tattoo.
Then I realised that I was just feeling damn sorry for myself, and I should consider myself lucky compared to what others suffer with.
Sadly I cannot get anymore ink because they are saying that if I don’t bleed to point of needing a…[Read more]

replied to the topic first tattoo spring break advice please ๐ urgent! in the forum Tattoo Aftercare 17 years ago
Hi Pecueca
My advise is dress it in a non-stick sterile dressing and if it is only for a day just keep it covered until you are done.
If you get chance take off teh dressing halfway for 15 mins and wash in clean water pat dry and replace.
Do not add any suntan lotion or scented creams to it so early on in the healing process.Take Care

replied to the topic Is this normal? in the forum Tattoo Aftercare 17 years ago
Hi
Yes KH is right the ink always looks slightly different during the healing process because your skin is healing at different rates.
It tales 2-3 weeks for the colour to really come through and don’t panic if you need a small touch up that is also quite common (especially on larger tattoos).
Looking forward to seeing your ink.

First of all it looks like a nice star tattoo – well shaped and nice lines.
There are several things you coudl add to it such as;
Flames.
Rainbow through the centre.
Symbol in the middle.
Floral effect.
More stars.These are just a few. My advice is actually leave it alone. As long as it is a good tattoo you should not worry so much.

I mentioned it because there have been ppl who have asked out of politeness if he minded (them getting a tattoo) and he seems to take it as a compliment.
You are right he could not enforce or stop a person but for the sake of a quick email I personally would ask.

replied to the topic Trying to find a local-ish studio that uses Starbrite ink in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 17 years, 1 month ago
Hi
I had a good sift through the websites of the artists known to me in Yorkshire and sadly none of them list the types of inks they use.
My advice is to find an artist you like and ask them if use starbrite.
If they do not would they consider getting it in or letting you supply the inks for the tattoo. They are not that expensive also…[Read more]

You know normally the lesbian thing doesn’t do anything for me.
But since it is you I can make the exception ๐Although I think I would probably make one of the ugliest women alive – they would have to have a sub-race called ‘Wimmin’.

Hi
The dragonfly body and wings will easily adapt to the cardinal symbol being tattooed into it.
A decent artist could put that together for you and make the blue really stand out.Obviously the dragonfly may look more surreal but I reckon it would make a nice tat.

Damn you are right.

Hi
You are best using a fluent speaker over a translation site. This will make sure that you get an accurate and grammatical translation as opposed to pure phonetics.
There are several variations in the Arabic language on names.

Hi
I get the concept and glad that you got the Hebrew right. Ever seen tattooedjews.com?
They have the magila which is spelt wrong and all sorts of shit – its is funny but makes me wonder how they managed it as many are Israeli.
