Tattoo Appreciation Soc. Chat Thread

Welcome to the Tattoo Appreciation Society Chat Thread. :h:
You can join the society here.


This thread is the Chat Thread for the society.


In other words, it's a place for members to chat. Hopefully, it'll all stay on topic (i.e. about tattoos), but it may not.

If you're looking for serious talk about tattoos: information on getting one, advice for your next tattoo etc, then head over to the
Tattoo Appreciation Society Tattoo Thread
.




We're currently looking for help preparing a FAQ on getting a tattoo, see below:


Getting a tattoo FAQ post - UPDATE

Any more contributions to this would be appreciated, as would your feedback. We want it to be as much of a group effort as possible.

As Griffin23 suggested, even if your contribution is recommending a tattooist or mentioning the aftercare product you used/were advised to use, this would be helpful!

I love my tattoo, and I love seeing other peoples tattoos.
If you love your tattoo post a photo :smile:

I'll start:
1st tattoo

It's colour, but for some reason i only have this photo to hand and it doesnt show alot of it.




It's not finished and needs some touch ups... but it'll get there.

Edit: Photo quality has been destroyed...

After two more sessions :smile:



And here it is nearly finished, not the best photo and still needs touch ups :smile:


The finished product :biggrin: Might need touch ups but as a whole my 31 hour tattoo is finished... I'm so giddy.

whos that women? Is it Eve?
I have just one tattoo, but I really want more. I am obsessed with watching Miami Ink and other such programmes because the tattoo designs are always so amazing and grand :colondollar:

I am most definitely going to get more tattoos, but I am going to wait a couple of years to see if I still like the idea of a particular tatoo before I decide on it's placement for another while and then get it done :yy:

If a tattoo is my biggest regret when I'm 80, I'll have lived a pretty easy life.

Tbh, I am a wimp with pain and it really only hurt me a bit. The time actually does fly and I was done before I even realised.

I will say, though, that the outlining was more painful for me than the filling in - I always thought it would be the other way around.

Lines can be a bitch! I did a four and a half hours session for those lines and it was hard. I've also done 4 hours colour on another tattoo and it was suprisingly tame in comparison.
