Really?
Huh, i wouldnt have guessed that. Doesnt really look like what a scalpel mark would look like but still neat none the less.

Awesome ink. I'm super jealous. I've been on a 6 yr search of someone good around me so I can get more ink done.

Thanks heather! He is really good. And yeah I'm pretty sure it's done with a scalpel.

You're just a weenie :P

Just kidding!! But my rib piece didn't HURT per say, it just took for freaking ever. I didn't have a problem with the pain, just laying in certain positions for hours upon hours got aggravating at times. I went for 5 hours one day, and 5 more immediately the day after. 2nd day I had NO sleep. It certainly sucked.

Though, outlines hurt way worse than shading. So be thankful for that!

And yes, scarification is done with a scalpel, and then they peel the skin off. Also, in order to get the most out of scarification, you're advised to keep the wound open as long as possible. Sometimes this means to rub lemon juice and sandpaper on it :gj::gj:

Just be thankful you only got a tattoo, LOL! And as for me, I will STICK with tattoos thank you very much!!

Reading that raised the hair on the back of my neck lol! uhhh thats creepy. I kinda want a small one though, just to try it. What does the end product look like? Just like a regular shiny scar im assuming. I mean theres no like ink or anything involved right?

I remember when I had my tattoo done it didn't hurt me at all ( the tattoo gun noise got on my nerves) , andi had it all done at once outlined and inked in my upper arm area. but heck i ready for anotherone, so fiance we thinknig of getting a matching snake patter done ( likea figuer eight mine to match my piebald and her in what ever morph she wants.

Personally, I think it looks quite gross...

Why not just get a red tattoo in the first place?

Oh that is creepy looking like i pictured lol. I can think of a few things that would look cool but yea im with you, id probably just go for a tattoo instead haha!

It's been awhile since I had my ink done but I remember the shading/coloring hurt way more than the outline, perhaps part of that was my second and third had red in it and my skin kept rejecting it so the constant going over started to suck. 12 years later and my husband still catches me checking out my ink in the mirror.. I think on the bone was the worst, my first was a couple hours on my back with a section straight up my spine.
Congrats., looks like it will be awesome..
