Purplee Widow

Well, I think it would be salvagable with a touch up. Whether I want to ask the same guy to do it or not is another question. It is an original peice of his art work, so I kind of wanted him to be the only one to work on it for that reason. It could probably be covered, but it's already a pretty big peice, and I LOVED it before it healed wrong. so I'm pretty torn. Thanks for the input though guys. I had never heard of dry healing, so I'm glad to hear its a real think and hes not just a total hack.

so so so soooooo tragic. I spent 5 hrs in the chair almost and the artist gave me totally wrong care instructions so now I'm pretty much disfigured. Being my first tattoo i didn't know how fucking wrong this was. He told me wash it when I'm in the shower and do NOT put ANYthing on it, no ointment, no lotion, no oil. Seemed a little strange to me, so I even texted him for clarification, and he still said dont put anything on it. So I did that, the whole thing scabbed up, bled out took 2 weeks to heal and now looks like someone hit me in the leg with a baseball bat huge red and purple blured mess.. By the time i realized what was going on under that scab it was waaay to late to save it. Worst of all I texted my artist about it and his response was basically 'well you didnt listen to my instructions so its your problem now.' :[ I really don't know what to do about it other than cry for days. :/

Oh hai, Mark. I could also mention I'm from Orange County! What other relevant info do you guys want? :)

Hi just introducing myself. You can call me Purple. I'm not really sure what else to say here. I just got my first tattoo less than a month ago so I am a real noobie.
