Quoting Ashley R [[x3]]:" Excuse the crappy pic. But this is my only one for now. I can't wait to get it redone. (I'm mobile so I can only post a link) [IMG]http://i45.tinypic.com/w7dkkp.jpg[/IMG]"

Oh yeah. I paid the first guy $10 to do them. (I was young and stupid) and they were plain and simple. So my cousin (he is a tattoo artist) redone it for me for my birthday. He tried a new ink and it didn't stay. That tattoo is barely 2 years old! My skin didn't take to the ink he had. So I've got to get it fixed. But I don't know if I can deal with that pain for a third time!

i must be picky when it comes to tattoos cause the only one i like is the sugar skull.

I have a tattoo around my shoulder blade.. it may not be a bad spot but you have a lot of nerve endings there..and it hurts like a smurfer. The artist kept reprimanding me cuz my muscles and such would twitch on their own... like wtf.

I have 9 so far : ) Got my first at 16, and haven't stopped since lol
It also helped that BD did tattoos and drew most of mine up, so I didn't have to pay an arm and a leg for them
I have one on each foot, my rib cage, under my boob, behind my ear, both hips, my back, & my shoulder.
Here's just a few though, please excuse the almost nudiness in the first two lol

I bet that sucked! lol I had to stop myself from shaking 4 hours in on my new one... didn't help that I had been up since 4am and worked all day and sat in that chair for nearly 5 hrs til 2 am the next day.

I only have two but I will be adding another once I stop punking out. I draw/design all of my tattoos.

This says Poetic Artistry. Im a poet and a painter and I wanted something represent my two passions. My art is a visual poetry and my poetry is a lyrical art...so Poetic Artistry  


Kanji. LOL my first tattoo. It DOES mean "Spirit" (like full of life, spirited...not ghost) I had a Japanese student write it and then confirmed it with another  


I drew this up and tranfered it into PS for my next one. I want it on my collarbone

I love all of yours, especially the one under my boob! I was thinking of getting one there. Did it hurt? And what does it say?

Bleh, My new ink is starting to peel... I hate this part   I'm so scared to even touch it to apply lotion thinking I may end up peeling a scab off and it needing retouching later... At least it's not so tender or stings any more. Now it's just going to get itchy... Note to self.. "Smack it, don't scratch it!"

Oh, and anyone know a really good lotion to use for it? Right now I'm using Lubriderm Sensitive.

Mine started peeling a few dayus ago and i've been using Aveeno Daily Moisture

It helps with the itching A LOT

Edit: and I've been gently rubbing it in a little bit more than I would otherwise to help with the itching too.
