Black ink problems
Re: Black ink problems
I have a tattoo on my lower back - tribal design, mostly black with a little purple in the middle
It's not cancer and we're not going to die
j/kI knew I couldn't be the only person this ever happened to.
Re: Black ink problems
i'm a tattoo artist and when that happens its generally 1 of 2 things, one the artist is using a black ink that is to thick and needs to be diluted like voodoo, thus making it harder to take to the skin which means overworking the area and scarring, or two he just sucks and he's diggin too deep..........check out www.magicneedletat2.com and look for ronnie
Re: Black ink problems
Nice shop, but I sincerely doubt that I will be heading to TX for my next tat. I have someone else in mind that is local here, and does super work. But it is a really clean and nice looking place!

This is about the best I can do for now by myself

Wow, now that's talent!!! Taking a pic of your own back!! I have to try it now. If it works, I'll post it......if it doesn't work, I still might post it.

It took me a lot of tries to get that pic.....the tat is so low, my pants are on the crack of my *** so I had to try and get a pic without any "other" body parts showing!
Re: Black ink problems
I'm glad to hear someone else say it hurt like hell. Everyone I talk to says "Nah, it didn't hurt". LIES!!!!! It felt like a hot exacto blade carving into my back! 2 hrs and 15 min of pure torture. But it's worth it.
I tried to get my 5 year old to take a pic w/ the digital camera, but it didn't work out. Imagine that....

Re: Black ink problems
yeah Ive heard that some did - like a BIATCH too....But to me really it felt like a cap from a pen being scrapped across my back.
The guy who did the outline had a very heavy hand now that was a lil bothersome but it was very tolerable. Hell When I was getting my color Patrick Stephens was in the chair next to me and he was makin more faces and noises than I was....big baby! LOL

Re: Black ink problems
My hubby (who has no tats) was sitting in front of me mouthing "p*ssy", "you skirt", "wuss". So that wasn't helping. But it did hurt like all get out. And it wasn't my first, so it wasn't like I didn't know what was about to happen either. I would like more on my back, but don't know if I can handle it.
