Aftercare question (wont let me post anywhere else)
Dan replied to Benzillatats's topic in Initiation
first thing to do is DON'T GET ANYMORE TATTOOS ! and ,well,secondly,relax and wait until it's ACTUALLY HEALED ! maybe try some ibuprofen,and ice it. if that doesn't work, maybe it has NOTHING to do with the tattoo ! -

I love rose tattoos,but there is no deep meaning behind a rose,a rose is just a rose, unless you put a RIP and/or name associated with it.
-
does he work in a shop ? and there is nothing you can do about the blow out now, the best thing to do is research artists and find a good one that does whatever style you want next time. just my humble opinion, but don't go back to the person that did that tattoo.

New Beautiful Tattoo - Mix of Emotions (Regret, visibility?)
Dan replied to karatefoxes's topic in Initiation
hi,you have "tattoo remorse", it's very common,it will go away, your tattoo is a nice tattoo, don't get any laser done, it will fade and lighten naturally over time, now,put a tank top on and show it with pride,nobody is going to think less of you,and if they do that's their problem. -

Dan replied to Benzillatats's topic in Initiation
LOL so you knew you shouldn't be swimming a week after getting a tattoo ? that's on you, let it heal more, a little shiny and flaky sound normal to me, muscle aches not typically from infection -
no,as long as you are up to it, like you feel good,eat well,sleep well,pre-hydrate,etc,etc the day & night before & day of. most important is to mentally prepare.

on touchups I might do $30-$60 range, depends on how much they end up doing, gloves, needles, ink, ink pots, saran,paper towels, etc etc , if you think about it they are using a lot of supplies. plus their time.
-
call and make an appointment to go see the artist that did it and let that person know your thoughts. most good artists that I know will happily do a touch-up, for free, if they do,be sure and tip them.(for cost of supplies)

15th Annual Bay Area Tattoo Convention
Dan replied to Dan's topic in LST Get Togethers & Tattoo Conventions
ya thanks, and I have been trying to get in with him for a long time, everything just clicked that day. he was only taking walkups from a list and the list fills up super fast,well I saw him in the lobby while I was waiting for the tickets to go on sale and walked over to him, told him who I was and he remembered my emails, he told me he would put me on the list, and he did, I was the first one on the list, it was really cool,his booth was next to Jordy hopper's and greg Christian's and oliver peck and across from feddy corbin, and stuart and Valerie's booth, it was a super cool aisle in the convention to be on.This year had more great artists than I have ever seen there. -
welcome ! do you have any tattoos ?

15th Annual Bay Area Tattoo Convention
Dan replied to Dan's topic in LST Get Togethers & Tattoo Conventions
so I got a little hula lady from Tim Hendricks yesterday, it was a beautiful day at the bay and I had a great time at the show. my wife made choc chip cookies for them. I have tons of pics of the booths and artist I will post later. -
LOL you need to relax, if it was infected then it would be painful and red and angry directly around the tattoo

Dan replied to Dan's topic in LST Get Togethers & Tattoo Conventions
I just live 90 min away,I will be there sunday. I will PM you my # so we can maybe meet. -
I use Palmers cocoa butter and Aveeno.
-
looks totally normal to me,use a little Aveeno on it a couple times a day.
-
I have used tagederm and saniderm and IMO it's the same stuff and both have given me the same results.
-
I get redness and bruising after taking the saniderm off , it's 100% normal and it will go away in a week or so,maybe more maybe less. I depends on you and where the tattoo is also. I use Aveeno a couple times a day after I take off the saniderm.
