Woo Hoo! Definitely come back here with pics:)

Looks GREAT!!! Congratulations!:D

I think it’s really beautiful!

I have to agree with yoda. While it sucks that there are very similar tattoos to yours out there, a blue rose is not exactly uncommon. In fact, the roses on my leg were almost blue! But I do hate it for you!

Interesting! I HATED getting my shoulderblade done. Hurt like crazy! Looks like a well done tattoo.:)

I’m sorry I am NO help, but WOW to ALL of them! Holy cow. Fantastic work; seems like you can’t go wrong with any of them!

What kind of soap are you using? I know my shop recommends using Dial hand soap. One thing I have found for me personally is I can’t use the Dial for longer than 3 days, or else it dries the tattoo out too much. I switch over to plain Dove or Ivory soap for washing after the third day.

A shower shouldn’t bother your tattoo at all unless you’re…[Read more]

Hmm, sorry. I’m not sure what’s going on there. If it were me, I would probably swing by my shop and have my artist take a look at it. I don’t think it’s poorly done, I think something’s happening, but I’m not sure what.

Yeah, I was just trying to ignore you, lol.:p

Wow! Bet that sucked to sit for.;) Can’t wait to see it in color!

Hello!

It’s not a BAD tattoo. But I wouldn’t call it a GOOD tattoo, either. As long as you’re happy with it, that’s all that matters!

I like it a lot!

And what is it with people talking about all their $200-$250 tattoos? I can’t tell if they’re bragging that they got a good deal, or if they’re thinking $250 is a lot of money. I paid $400 for my tiki tattoo! It was NOT cheap!!!

OP, the above is NOT directed at you in particular. Just a general thought that happened to end…[Read more]

not a fan of shrooms in general(not bashing you at all) but overall the tattoo is awesome. bold solid colors, and the tiki guy is f’n bad@ss

Lol, those aren’t mushrooms! The angle makes it look like they are, but they’re tiki torches. When I get the center touched up, I may see if he can texturize them a little more…[Read more]

Looks neat and clean.:)

Awesome progression. Going to look bad ass when it’s finished!

Awesome! Looks great:)

Thanks a bunch! Definitely GLAD it’s finally healed, lol! This one drove me crazy to heal up; I think because it’s the only one I can really SEE, I analyzed it until it drove me crazy. It got a couple of little infected ingrown hairs, and it felt fairly painful a few times, but now all is well. Will probably get the color tweaked on the center…[Read more]

Looks like a good tattoo.:) I guess if you want to get tested, go for it.

I like it, it’s a unique tattoo!

Looking good! The crest looks much better now.:)
