    Re: TATTOOS

    i have a dolphin on my right ankle, a bird on the top of my right arm and a unicorn with wings on the top of my left arm with my dogs name undernesth it. Im planing now though to have a celtic band round my right wrist. If you gonna have a tattoo done i would advise that you should really have one done by a professional person so as to lower the risk of possible infection. Tattoos are not completely pain free though the pain goes to numbness after a while, dependin on where they are depends on the level of pain.....the anke flipping kills, but mine was well worth it

    Re: TATTOOS

    Pain depends on a number of things -- your own tolerance, andthe location (ribs are the worst I've heard). I've heard that the outline needle is worse than colour, because the needles used for colour are several heads where the outline is only one, so it's more localised. My entire tattoo was done with the outline needle though and it was fine - you are going to feel it, no question about that. To me it felt like being scratched repeatedly by a cat - it took 2.5 hrs to do mine.

    Keep in mind that you should be excited to be getting it done, and the adrenalin will kick in and make it easier :D

    Afterwards it feels like a burn, like sunburn or being scalded I think.

    Oh It'll be professional, my cousin's a professinal tattooer (body artist?) haha. Ahh I have such low pain tolerance. I'm scared. I wanna get two stars on both my hips too.

    I want tattoos in private places too, so when I decide to become a professional, it'd won't be an issue.

    Re: TATTOOS

    thats good, you lucky there, wish i had a relative who was a tattooist i'd be living in the studio lol. If you really really want one done then go for it, the pain is worth it in the end and its a pain you forget ( a bit like giving birth, so im told lol)

    Egad This is creepy, but we go to Art College together.

    I have seen this tattoo on a girl in the Cantina who I am guessing is you.

    I'm not a stalker, honest!

    This is weird...

    Maybe it would sound more likely that I wasn't a stalker if I hadn't written my location as 'Stalking Flack'.... oh dear.

    Re: TATTOOS

    Oh... I've a dolphin too, on my back! :eek:
    And I was thinking of doing an unicorn too! :eek:

    It wasn't to painful, but it depends on the part of the body you do it.

    Re: TATTOOS

    I'd love to get an intricate butterfly on my shoulder blade, and a rose vine with thorns entwined around my ankle. I would also like to get a pair of angel wings on my back...
    Except i don't think its going to be happening any time soon as i have a phobia of needles...
    but i think tatooes are awesome. i love tatooes...

    Re: TATTOOS

    My friend wants angel wings on her back too, don't think I could have a tattoo on my back, unless maybe it was a small one at the bottom.

    Re: TATTOOS

    Me too but I wouldn't get one on my lower back, my tennis coach got one and she said she hates it so much now that she's older.
