so I got my Friday the 13th tattoo just now and I love it. tattoo by Ronnie Grizard at Imperious Rex shop. https://www.imperiousrextattoo.com/copy-of-patrick-tattoo-pat-hughes here are some bloody pics

I like it the way it is.

ya,well,I got my first tattoo when I was 24 (1983), maybe just me,but I wouldn't have taken either of my kids in for a tattoo when they were 14.

Haha yeah, back then (1995) if you were 14 and had parental permission you could get tattooed. Actually that was one of my better little tattoos compared to the ones I got when I was a little older. I have a 5 month old son now and no way in hell is he getting tattooed till he’s 18 and has the money to afford something good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

lots of potential there. keeping the same style and/or artist can make it seemless.

I've been sick with a nasty head cold during a four hour rib session. It was zero fun but I had traveled for the tattoo and wasn't going to reschedule. I tried to keep my cooties to myself! Being sick sucked all the joy out that session but I healed great. :) Good luck!

That's great. I thought about getting one, but couldn't find anyone that was doing it locally.

Leave it.

If you think you might be at the end of being contagious you could always offer to wear a surgical mask, too . . .

Beautiful work but it's triggering a massive vertigo attack for me.

never heard of such a thing, but the rose looks good.

Here we go then - From the Ministry in Farnham (UK) this afternoon :-) - getting there on this piece - another session booked for June.. The marvellous Ben Dunning again -

Got this from the Get What You Get machine at White Rose in York, PA. Artist is Calvin Hersh. I was actually really excited that it fit in an awkward spot so nicely.

right ! and when your wife tells you she is not so fond of hand and neck tattoos and you STILL get them !

When you're wife tells you that even so much as thinking about a head tattoo idea is grounds for divorce.

yes,the only thing that would affect getting a tattoo after a vacation is if you get sun burned,just keep a good 50spf on the area the tattoo is going on and you will be fine.I don't like the sun either,but tanning won't hurt anything,I am the guy on Maui beaches with 50spf and sitting under an umbrella. LOL

Interesting, but after a while they start to look alike. Waaaay to detailed for a tattoo.

You plan vacations and choose destinations around getting tattooed.

Here is my latest tattoo. Just finished it last Thursday. Four hour ribs session 😬

I think you are as likely to make it worse than better. That's a nice tattoo. As @Synesthesia pointed out, that's in a tough spot, really delicate skin. NO tattoo is perfect, if you look hard enough and long enough, you'll always find something wrong. You have a really good, strong tattoo. Enjoy it!

+1 You don't know what it looks like until it heals.

Ugh, I'm sorry it was brutal but so worth it. @oboogie

I always wanted a tattoo since birth. One day me and my friend were stoned out of our minds, somehow got onto the topic of tattoos and then he says "I know a dude who does sick sleeves for like $100 bro" then I was convinced it was a good idea. I was so excited and eager to get a tattoo that I WAS NOT THINKING STRAIGHT- I just wanted to get it. Went the next day , gave the dude $100 and gave me a crap rose sleeve. I regretted it like the next day hahaha. Moral of the story: Have patience and invest in quality artist ... and don't do drugs
