Aww taryn that's going to be lovely, lots of pics please Smile

by **jshrew** Sat May 11 2013, 22:51

Gorgeous pic its going to look awesome,

personally the anticipation was worse than the actual pain of a tattoo of course its not pleasant but the ones I have on my upper arms and calf after the initial needle to skin I actually found it more uncomfortable sitting/lying still than the pain itself my foot and ribs were slightly different but only at certain points over nerves. Have a good breakfast/lunch before hand, be well hydrated (you don't want to get light headed) and have a good nights sleep (had my side tat after working a night shift and just a couple hours sleep and was definitely more fidgety)

If you can get bepanthen (nappy rash cream) its really good for healing but obviously follow the aftercare your artist recommends.

by Guest Sat May 11 2013, 23:42

You're a fantastic drawer! Good luck on getting inked though, I'm sure it'll be fine and look great Big Grin

not so big, maybe from just above my wrist to half way up my left forearm Big Grin

i have tattoos on my back.... but the idea of getting my wrist done is a little scary.... its gonna hurt

by Guest Sun May 12 2013, 14:12

I'm toying with the idea of caricatures of Tilly and Tommy on my shoulders , already have an old dodgy that needs covering up so would maybe work well

by **Taryn** Sun May 12 2013, 14:28

it hurt... but not to the point where you would scream or cry... but enough to make discomfort faces Laughing

by **Taryn** Tue May 14 2013, 18:57

i really want to take the wrapper off but i have to wait till tomorrow

by **Kathy** Tue May 14 2013, 19:17

must be differant for yous over there as i only keep mine on an hour then wash and pat dry with paper towels
as the clingfilm makes it sweat and draws the ink out thinking

by **jshrew** Tue May 14 2013, 20:51

Gorgeous! Though as Warren mine was only to be covered for an hour then wash and air dry or pat with paper towel

by **Taryn** Tue May 14 2013, 21:39

sweat... in finland Laughing

no, this is the same as it was when i got it done in australia. i leave it on for 6 hours, clean it, and then add a cream 3 times a day lightly. the tattooist sent me home with a instrction booklet

by Guest Tue May 14 2013, 21:40

Same here mine covered only an hour or two. Great tat though Taryn Big Grin

by **Taryn** Tue May 14 2013, 22:31

i just realised i forgot to buy the cream... damn it. i've taken the warp off now and washed it a little and then used some normal face cream since i wont have anything else till tomorrow Straight Face

by Guest Tue May 14 2013, 22:34

I'm sure that'll work fine until you get the one you're meant to get Big Grin
