I’m gonna take the whole thing tomorrow cuz the artist is going home to his country tomorrow.. So I’m a bit scared if I can’t deal with the pain. But he said we could take as many breakes as I wanted and he didn’t think it would be a problem.
in worst case scenerio I’ll do the rest at a other tattoo studio.
I suggest letting the same person do all the work. You may not be happy letting one start, and another finish. The pain shouldn’t be too bad where you are planning. The outline will be the worst of it, after that is done, the shading will be a cake walk. Good Luck, and looking forward to seeing your finished product.
Also, be careful of the tattoomybrain link. My Antivirus detected a trojan on the site when I tried to click on one of the tabs in it.
Hello everyone! Now the tiger is on place after a hell of a tattoo session!!!
Ya now, I was told to shave my leg before I went there. And I did it, BUT I used ordinary shaving cream.. with a lot of fragrance.. And I went over to take my tattoo and he said he could do the outline now, but the coloring like 4 hours later because he forgot his colors at the shop and the guy who had the key went away for the day and a pal had to go and get the colors.
I thought that was a great idea.. in that way I could chillout for some hours before I continued.
After the outline I thought my leg was on fire! it burned, burned and burned. and I saw that my skin was NOT comfortable with the shaving cream I used before.. it was SO soar, hot and hurt like hell and it was like 2 hours till I could do the coloring. He was like: Oh dude, how did you shave your legs?
Then the coloring, my leg was like on fire andDAMN how it hurt!! And after 1 1/2 hours of pain it was finally done. I bled like hell! I have a picture of the outline where you can see how soar it is!
And let me tell you, the red is NOT blood or color. It’s just my damn sensitive skin.
here is picture of the outline
here is picture now when I got home!! 🙂 I was pretty saticfied!!
not a great picture thought cuz I don’t have a great camera.
are you going to keep shaving them from now on so you can see your tattoo more ?
:rolleyes: you will get used to it
thanks! Yeah it did, it looks better in real life.. the camera makes everything seems so flat you know.
Well, i have no idea if I’ll keep shaving. one things for sure, i’m never ever used the fucking type of shaving cream ever again. I’ll get something better.
Only thing I’m gonna focus on now is making it heal up nicely 🙂
Congratulations on the tattoo. Seems to look good.
When I got to my tattooist he shaved my leg for me (which was odd in it self) but he just used this kinda antiseptic gel thing (looked like your average hand sanitizing cream from a hospital) as shaving cream. That was the best bloody shaving cream I’ve ever used. Would love to try it for my regular facial shaving, but the alcohol would probably dry out the skin really quick. 🙂
