What are tattoo appointment essentials?

[thyes]

Thank you for a good reply! Yeah I have been trawling quite a bit, that's for sure :P But then again I have a rather big tattoo on my back that I am not happy with. And that feeling sucks. I'm gonna get it fixed some time, so it's not the end of the world, but I guess I just want to make sure this time around. 

Oh yeah, rest assured pictures will be posted!

With my back piece, I'm going to bring a couple of couch cushions, small ones. The neck pillow is still handy. Now I have been bringing my new girl friend and she and my artist hit it off. She's Italian so she always brings something.

I prepare my skin by applying hustle butter for about a week prior to my next session. Wear comfortable clothes and hydrate. Not with alcohol...LOL. Eat a good healthy meal and rest well.

My girlfriend got her first tattoo a couple of days ago. She got light headed early into it. I told her to hydrate starting the day before and eat light before the appointment. She had brought a box of donuts for the shop. Some of that and water fixed her right up. I guess she opted out of eating and came right from the gym!
