Savlon healing Gel might help your healing if u get this tattoo its great stuff, I wouldn't be into them myself as its unheard of for posh people like me to get a tattoo........

I'm aware of the need for the parlour to be reputable and sanitary etc, and have narrowed it down to two places near where I live. I also know that I'll have to talk to the artist beforehand and can get any concerns I have out of the way, but I thought I'd mention it to your helpful people

How much are we talking, ballpark, for a design that I mentioned above?
How much pain am I likely to feel?
How long does the procedure take?
How long before the tattoo starts to fade?
What if the artist bungles the design and I dislike the end result?
How long before it heals and can be sported openly?

Cheers in advance...

I wouldn't bother, you can't get rid of the thing (at least I don't think you can). should you regret it later. I don't even like them on top of a girls' anal cleavage. I think they are childish and your hide is better suited without them.

Once you have a design in mind get the artist to "pen" it onto your desired area there are special skin felt tip pens this allows you to "sport" it for a few days and have a right good look at it without the pain etc.
In a day or so if you would like anything altered or changed go back to the artist and make any changes because there is guaranteed to be something your not quite happy with......so far so good
right you perhaps made a few changes to the design and are well chuffed now the next step it to fire a few redbulls and chocolate down you and get it done for real.

Have to disagree with rover i think a tatoo on a womans back just over her ass is a massive turn on,really sexy
