holly golightly. asked:


I got my first tattoo 2 weeks ago.
How long until I can let it be and just enjoy it?

The tattoo artist said I can’t soak it or anything while it’s healing, but what I want to know is how long until it is completely healed?
At this point, it seems like it’s mostly healed.

As tattoo’s are painful, a little risky, and more or less permanent, I suspect there is some sort of insecurity/attention seeking psychology at work. What are your thoughts?

I want another tattoo ( i have 18 right now) and the place I go to is really expensive. Tattoo 46 does amazing work but I can’t afford it. Any suggestions on where to go in the Morris County area of New Jersey?
I dont want a crappy tattoo. I just dont want to pay 50 bucks for something the size of my thumb nail.

How bad does a tattoo really hurt to get?

Just A Gal asked:


How bad does one hurt, medium-sized, on your upper back, right below the back of your neck? Have you ever had one done after numbing gel was applied? Is there any risk of getting hepatitus or any other disease from getting one done, let’s say, in a big city tattoo parlor, like in San Diego?

 

What would I look for in choosing the right tattoo parlor to make sure they know what they are doing?
