Damn she’s a trooper for a rib tattoo. How many sittings and who did it?

Basically three sittings, the last one was only maybe two hrs work. Zack Kinsey at Uptown tattoo in minneapolis does our work. He actually goes to Europe for tattoo conventions and such.

Normal, you should see my lower arm right now. It looks like a snake shedding its old skin! I rarely have any scabbing, which might be how the artist works the skin/tattoo. But I do peel alot.

Normally when mine starts to peel alot I use less lotion as I don’t want to rip any of the peeling skin off. Also DON’t overdue it with ointment or lotion.…[Read more]

Nice response! I agree with You No other investment is lifelong!

I also hate when people ask how much they cost, about 150 an hr, and they say ‘whaaa… I know. So&so who could’ve done that for….” or they show me their tattoos, which aren’t great, and say.. ‘the homie did this for 20 bucks”.. really? Maybe that’s why it…[Read more]

Pretty awesome. I’d love to see some close ups.

I’ll try to get my wife to get some closer pictures to capture the detail!

Thanks everyone!

I just had alot of red ink added to my sleeve a few weeks ago, with zero problems. I’ve heard the same thing, also heard it takes along time to heal. I heal slow anyways and it took about the same amount of time as other colors.

I get pimples on fresh tats, I think its due to the aquaphor, I don’t pop it, normally it just goes away.

To each his own, not a fan of it myself. 15hrs of work in my opinion could have gotten something better.

What is it? Sorry, don’t mean to sound rude, just can’t quite make it out.

LOL, haha you can’t see the peace sign?

OP- Looks normal to me, probably atleast another week before its healed.

my boyfriend spent about $2100 on his qtr sleeve. it took about 15 hours and the artist charged $145/hr.
good luck.

Holy crap! On a 1/4 sleeve? I got about that many hrs of work and same price on my full sleeve. I have only a couple hrs of work left.

In my opinion not a good place for a first timer tattoo. I was just talking to my artist about neck tattoos. He said that he refuses to tattoo someone in that area for there first tattoos. Even people that have a few smaller tattoos, he mostly wont do it. He stated plain in simple it a “poser” thing to do. He stated having neck tattoo doesnt…[Read more]

Hey, sorry I know this is very vague but I am just trying to get an idea of how much it will cost to get from below my shoulder to just above my elbow sleeved?
