I have a japanese dragon sleeve and i’m very happy with it although its still not finished, its a big job and it will cost you quite a bit. Make sure you have a good idea how much its going to cost for the full tattoo and find out if you can do it in one sitting.

I think if your happy to have the tattoo then go get it because its you thats got to live with it! If you are worried about whether your going to look butch then DON’T because your worrying. Ok you might feel ok about it now but if you have any doubts at all you shouldn’t have it done.

Quick search on google image.

Good luck hope these were helpfull.

If it was me i would have it gray shaded, unless the colors are very subtle

No no no no I was not talking about the inks i`m sure they are very good, I was refering to the tattoo machine kits that you can get on ebay.

Got to disagree with the Triple Anti Biotic Cream here. Antiboitics in any form should only be taken or applied ONLY if an infection is present. We have many bugs that live on our skin, naturally, and destroying them aint gonna help your immune system at all. There are plenty of aftercare applications out there today and many are 100% natural and have properties that will help the body not kill off what we need for the good health of our skin. I can speak first hand about this as a person who has had a severe skin condition since childhood. NO ANTIBIOTICS unless there is infection

I agree with iNKYBITS

Antibiotics should only be used as a last resort !!

My tattoo artist said most of them are poorly made by some indian or chinese company, I know he is biased but he is also a good mate of mine and I respect his opinion.

Are you a good artist ? probably the most important thing unless you just want to do some tribal work but even then I would make sure you do alot of dead pig tattooing first 🙂
