  1. Would love to borrow your Ben Franklin quote!- Wait, it wasn't yours to begin with! ... Nevermind lol - - - Updated - - - Looks to be two petals with a small amount of filigree, the "squared" look of one leave leads me to believe it is a Hibiscus of sorts... looks more like a Boob than a neck though IMO!
  2. Hello from Mobile, AL. I am a professional tattooist with about 12 years of experience, hailing from 4 different sates (TX,MS,AL,GA). I joined this group for a few reasons, one, advice because I feel like I am close to hitting a plateau in my career, and networking. I feel like its never too late to learn more! I hope that not only will I be able to make new friends and learn a few more tips, but I also hope that I can help someone else reach further into the bag of knowledge. Look forward to chatting with you all!! Instagram: cs_tattoo251 :cool:
  3. I personally prefer "Tattooist" or "Tattoo Artist" the term tattooer (in my opinion) sounds like more of a flash tattooer than an actual "Artist" that can create art rather than just tattoo it... That isn't taking away from anything, just stating how it "sounds" to me... This is in no way meant to sound insulting, just how I considered introducing myself over the years and the thoughts that went into it.
  4. Nice looking shop! I miss 6th street! I wish you were in Houston or Odessa. I live in mobile, but lived in Texas while in the Military, and am looking to do some guest spots as I frequent both Odessa-Midland and Houston.
  5. Personally- I prefer that if tattooing someone with Type 1 or 2 Diabetes, Not to go below the waist, if possible and typically would avoid a lot of linework if possible (such as Celtic knot work). Aside from obvious health precautions, Ink seems to spread more with diabetics so lines that would normally be within the "limitations" of a person without diabetes may be too close to keep it from looking blurry later. I also try to advise against using a lot of aftercare. This is just an opinion and I do not speak for the admin or other artists on this page, however too much aftercare lotion on a diabetic person seems to cause the tattoo to take longer to heal and prolong the potential to develop an infection.. Like I said this is an opinion that I feel to be true based on past experiences- comments are welcome. Thanks
