Although not a tattooer, I work in a shop and can I please add:
5 friends + 3 iphones taking pictures should not equal 1 tattoo. That is annoying math.
I am trying to add some interesting tattoo(er) tumblrs to an account for our shop but i keep running into blogs full of Rihanna tattoos :(
If you have a tumblr, can i add you? Whats your username please? <3
I hope I didnt overlook an existing thread :/
I can still sit for about 4 hrs but it takes a lot more effort now than it did when i was 22. I used to just go into my own head while i was getting tattooed and sort of daydream and ignore the pain-- that doesnt work anymore. i found initiating a lively conversation with the person tattooing me really helped and made the time fly so i come in prepared with amusing stories now.
the upper inner part of my arm into my armpit has been terrible this past week. it stayed sore forever and still has scabs though the rest of the arm is healed. ugh.
