If you're going to reproduce old art as a tattoo then find a tattooist who is very good at photo realism. On the other hand, if you're looking for a one-of-a-kind piece of art - then don't even think about a "design service". A truly good artist will make a truly good design and then be interested in tattooing it. A large percentage of tattooists who might try to reproduce someone else's original work of art will do so only because they're hungry - not necessarily because they are capable.

or nothing at all. all my tattoos have dry healed just fine.

I would stop using that stuff and see what happens. over the centuries hundreds of thousands of tattoos have healed just fine with no product at all.

A week out you can use whatever you want.

What I ended up with on the inner thigh. Hamstring scorpion and rose in two weeks!

Thank you! Almost 2 years cancer free! Considering making a sleeve out of this one. Thank you!

Since you're new to tattoos, let me try again - GOOD artists don't usually use other people's designs and don't usually design for other artists. You're unlikely to get art that will translate into a good tattoo. GOOD artists will redraw to make the art fit your skin and body part. Frankly I wouldn't go to an artist that just took a design handed to them. Presumably you came here for advice. Take it or leave it.

Make sure you get someone really good. That would be easy to **** up.

Yes I do, this picture was taken a bit longer then a month after placement.
