I knew about what I wanted and the artist took my idea and drew something out right on my ankle/foot. I loved it so we went ahead with the tattoo. He told me that because I wanted something to go around my ankle and onto my foot it would be best.

Hello! I had my tattoo done by one of Nick’s former colleagues when Nick had Pirate’s Alley. The artists split up and went their separate ways shortly after I had mine done.

What about getting something that incorporates their first initial? I have a vine with flowers and I have the first initials of both my boys. You could have the artist work it so that initials are so worked into the design they don’t just stand out like a sore thumb.

When I had my tattoo done the artist used TatuDerm. I personally had no problem with it but my friend who had her tattoo done at the same time did have a problem. I have since heard it is not a good option. I have heard using aquafor and keeping the area clean is best.
My tattoo is now 2 years old and I am still put lotion on it. I find it…[Read more] -

I had an idea of what I wanted when I went in to get my one and only tattoo. The artist drew his rendering right on my ankle/foot in marker. I fell in love with it instantly! He listened to what I wanted and gave me some suggestions about working it around my ankle bone.

When I got my tattoo I had good friends that came along to help distract me. They were also there to help make sure I got something that I really wanted as I didn’t have a pic but an idea of what I wanted. The artist drew freehand my design.

The tattoo parlor I went to uses TatuDerm to cover the tattoo. They apply a sheet shortly after the work is finished then advise you to remove it 2 days later unless there is a lot of seepage then wash with a mild soap and to return to the shop where they apply a second sheet. This time they advise you keep it on for 4-5 days then remove and…[Read more]

replied to the topic Do most artists use a pen marker before tattooing you? in the forum General Tattoo Discussion 12 years, 6 months ago
The artist that did my ankle/foot tattoo drew it on with 2 different color sharpie markers. He started with a green to get the basic design then followed with a magenta to define the design. When he was done with the whole tattoo he used a wash to clean the area and also remove any ink from the sharpie before applying TatuDerm. He said because…[Read more]

Thanks everyone for your nice comments on my tattoo.
Healing is going smoothly. I have my second application of TatuDerm on and can take that off either Friday or Saturday then it’s a dab of a moisturizer several times a day as recommended by the tattoo artist. -

Nice, sounds like your ready. Just an idea, instead of copying the other anklet you like have your artist do one up similar with your own favorite flower and color scheme to make it some-what original. Good luck and throw some pics up when ya get it all done. 🙂I am not copying what my cousin has. Just the idea…[Read more]
