great – try and get some pics from the other side too !!

Not quite sure what you mean? The pictures start on the inside of my arm and then run right around to the other side. If you check the lady weaing the catsuit who has green hair you’ll see her in the first pic and then again in the last one…

I used a product called ‘After Inked’ which wasn’t greasy and didn’t stick to my clothes.

During the course of getting my sleeve I tried 3 different products and found this one suited me best. I really didn’t like using the stuff that was greasy as I wear long sleeves for work pretty much all the time.

Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Artist is Louis at Middleton Tattoo here in the UK. He did the laser removal too.

I’ll likely have the other arm done at some point, just need to save up some more money first! 😀

You have two tattoos on your back. One is ESRA, in a funky font….

Isn’t it in a mirror and actually reads NASH?

i normally just stick with savolon

When I recommended E45 lotion it was as a daily application for the life of the tattoo after it has healed, to keep the skin nice and healthy.

Do you apply Savlon all the time or just until the tattoo has healed?

could somebody please recommend an unscented lotion available in the uk for aftercare? I have Boots right next to my place. They didnt have H2ocean or aquaphor.

I’ve been using E45 lotion on my arm and can’t recommend it enough. Cheap too and easy to find in any supermarket…

I was wondering about how much I should come with to the artist ahead of time and how much I should let them come up with on their own.(

I’m not sure how other tattooists like to work but the artist I’m currently having a full colour sleeve done by liked to have as much art taken along as possible and then cherry picked images that worked well together. Some of my favorite ideas were tossed out but now it’s all coming together I can see just how much he’s right about his decisions and it’s working out great.

I guess the best thing would be to find an artist first whose portfolio you like and go and have a chat with them, taking along as many ideas as you can.

You should check out this site and maybe get the book that can be bought on this very subject…

Plenty of ideas there for you I reckon.
