You're fixing it or a professional is fixing it? I'm not sure when you had it done but it's generally recommended to wait until the skin is fully healed so you don't traumatize the area too much and your artist has the best skin to work with. This is usually at least 2 months after getting it done.

You must be hanging out with some ugly penises.

some testicles ? . . . . . . . . . LOL sorry,I couldn't resist.

Hey guys, I am an active mother of two young children. I have three tattoos. Two of them are a work in progress still. Looking for some suggestions, to help build upon a small tattoo, watercolour style. Hope that you are having a wonderful new year, so far!

if there is blowouts, relax, let it heal and don't worry about it now, there is nothing to do about any blowouts for now anyway. blowouts can happen to anybody, anywhere on the body, by any artist. in 3 months when it is fully healed, look at it again, enjoy it, and then start start planning your next even more amazing tattoo.

As @Leah said, it looks like a slight blowout and there's nothing you can do about it. It has to fully heal to see what it will look like. No point in worrying about it, no tattoo is perfect.

It looks like you have a very slight blow out in some areas. It looks good though! I wouldn't worry too much about it although you'll probably obsess over it. To my knowledge there is nothing you can do about it. I have a few tattoos that did that too.

I mean, if your finger gets infected and has to be amputated we are NOT liable...

A reputable shop is a safe, clean environment. It doesn't sound like you are doing that. You got a mess the first time. If you want to fix it, let it heal completely then go to someone that knows what they are doing.

I don't think it looks anything like a dick, and I think it looks very pretty for that style. I don't know why you're unhappy with it. I think there's a like honeymoon phase sometimes with new tattoos, and maybe that's what you're experiencing?

I don’t see any pictures posted?

hey @keepcalm , I only have one arm tattoo so far , its on the under/ outer side of my forearm. My arms aren't massively hairy, but the artist did need to shave the area anyway and the hair grew back no different to my other arm which is tattoo free in the same area. Everyone is different I guess, but I woud assume as a once off you woudnt notice much difference. I remember a girl in high school shaved her arms all the time and the hair always grew back rather intense, but my guess is that's due to the repeated shaving.

Full back finished and back of legs in progress over 6 trips. Each trip is 2 consecutive days of tattooing, on average 7 hours per day.

Day 2 down. Here's a quick video of the progress, I'll share some pictures asap. I'll be flying back in during the summer to get the colors in. http://cloud.tapatalk.com/s/5a4d38dcaf92c/VID_153460411_221435_639.mp4
