Eeek! A tattoo? You are a brave woman. :) ABSOLUTELY do a page - yes, a pic of the artist, a copy of your original idea, a pic of it just finished and then a pic of it all healed!

Good luck - can't wait to see it and hear the rest of the story!

Let's see take a picture of the guy doing it maybe holding up the thingy they do the tattoo with, take a picture of the spot where you have it done BEFORE the tat is put on then do an after. A friend on mine had one done in October an hour before she came to my house to play Bunco. It looked great. I thought it would be a big scab. She said later while healing it didn't look so great. Glad I missed that stage, cause now it looks as good as it did the 1st night I saw it.

Absolutely do a page! I've done many! :-)

Tat's are not a big deal at all... don't be scared. It may hurt a bit but nothing like anyone makes it out to be. Seriously, you've made it through childbirth, right?!!!?

For the one I got in California, I have a pic of the guy who did mine, the outside of the shop (Hollywood & Vine), a card from the shop and an 'after' pic.

They're not too bad while healing either, but a few hints:

  1. Use A&D Ointment the first week or two... and keep everything else off it!!!
  2. After it starts healing a bit, use a fragrance free, everything-free lotion... and keep it moisturized to prevent scarring. I use Lubiderm if they have that down there...

And they are addicting!! I go in next week for the beginning of #4!!!

Let me know how it goes!!! Yaaahhhhhh Shaz!! Tattoo'd folks ROCK!!!

And as my favorite bumper sticker ever says....

Tattoo'd people are the same as everyone else... but they're way cooler and can kick your ass!!!!!!!!!!!
