What are you getting done, Jay does great ones two
celtic/tribal mix pinstriping across the shoulder blades. my own design with a few of sparkys ideas thrown in too
Nice. Got a big tribal pice on my arm,Sparkys good alright best of luck with it
thanx, from what he told me, im thinkin i should drink a bottle of vodka before i go in lol
Youll be grand, anyway I think they frown on gettin boozed up before hasnd, apparently it makes he blood bubble or sumthing anyway youll be ok, probably just getn you toon stoned to care
how much===really depends on artist and size and how long it will take to compleat my last tattoo wich is a really large back piece cost 600 euro.
how much pain===depends on where you get it i have 4 one on chest one on back and one on each arm. arms didnt hurt much at all kinda like rubbing a hard tooth brush across your skin chest hurt a bit more but my back was a real fucker but then it did last for over 4 hours each sitting and there were 3 sittings. also i took some nurofen plus before hand kinda taked the edge off.
how long does it take===again depends on what size and the detail and the artist.
how long befor fade===will be years before it fades but sunlight (uv) will fade it use a good sunblock.
what if the artist messes up===choose your artist carefully and check his portfilio before and make sure you see real pics of finished work not just drawings.
how long before it heals===this is from the leaflet i got a few weeks ago when i got mine done "protective scab will form in around 2 to 3 days and normally flake off by 7th day. you may notice a white scaled layer on the tattoo at this time. this is a dead layer of skin and will flake off soon. it can take 3 months for skin to be totally healed but visually your tattoo will appear healed after too weeks"
hope this helps but be warned they can become addictive.lol
if your in dublin i got all mine done in the dragon tattoo studio in tolbot street
