Re: Tattoos! Who has them?
Oh, as for how badly it hurt, not very much. Felt like someone was making little cuts with a razor. It was a very quick piece too.

Re: Tattoos! Who has them?
Nice tattoo's everyone.
I do not have one for a variety of reasons (I am immune suppressed for one), however, Katie does!
Honestly, even if I wasn't immune suppressed I would probably never get a tattoo. To each his own. Obviously, I am not against them, Katie had her tattoo before we met. When she found out I was Jewish and things were going really well before we met, she was afraid to tell me she had one. In Judaism, you are not supposed to get one or you won't be buried. Sounds kind of superstitious to me, and I am sure G-D understands these things, but she knew about that (Katie is not Jewish). She sent me the picture above before our first meeting, and explained the meaning of it to me, kind of full disclosure before we met. I couldn't argue with the meaning and already loved and adored her, so I had nothing negative to say either way. It's part of Katie, and I love ALL of Katie, psychical, emotional, mental, etc.
Anyway, the meaning:
She got it after her divorce and the phoenix represents her rising from the ashes of her marriage, being born anew, and given another chance at life. The phoenix is rising out of a (blank) book for two reasons. First, she loves to read, and secondly, and most important, she knows (and wanted to be reminded) that she writes her own story in life. In a big way, it's up to her how that story will turn out.

Such an awesome piece. I love the simplicity of it, while it carries such a powerful message. Chills head to toe.... thanks for sharing, my friend.

beautiful and so simple. love it!
i didn't know anyone there personally, but it was hard to get outta bed all of that week. we read all of the victims' names and had a long moment of silence before a staff meeting the Wednesday preceding the tragedy. i've been harassed before but it was hard to feel safe for awhile.

Re: Tattoos! Who has them?
anyways i gotta buncha. this one is of two of my girls and it's on my butt!
i do well w/ the pain. i think where it hurts most for me is on the inner forearm like over the carpal tendons close to the wrist and bone ridges. but any session over 3hours i start feeling raw all over the area getting tattooed. there are a few factors in pain: your own tolerance, the artist's technique and the tattoo gun. old skool coil guns hit softer. my man main uses more modern rotary guns like a Cheyenne that uses the cartridge system. the skin/wound will heal in 3-4 weeks, so i wait 4-6 for any follow-ups to cover my bases. i like to use A&D for aftercare for 1-2 weeks, washing and reapplying 3-4 times a day and then nutrient lotion the rest of the way. i wait until after the summer for touchups b/c i wanna know how my skin and the tattoo reacts to tanning. and of course i want more. just waiting for the next inspiration.

Oh forgot, we all took a break, even the other 2 artists when a deaf girl and her girlfriend started arguing in front of the shop. We kept hearing this muffled yelling so the guy stopped the gun and the sound was gone. Then he started it back up and we would hear it again. He was like ok this cant be my gun so we both got up and went out front to the waiting area and outside the big glass window pane, we saw the arguing. The other 2 artists were already there watching it. The gals finally noticed all of us gawking at them and they left lol. The things you see in Seattle around the Capital Hill areas back in the day. This was like 25 years ago lol...yes I'm an old fart now
umm Capitol Hill is as krazy (and fun) as ever. i hang out there alot. Lol all the stuff u will see at Nick's (replace the N w/ a D) parking lot on a Saturday night.

Re: Tattoos! Who has them?
I have two tattoos! Both on my left hand and they're both stick & poke tattoos. Which is like a DIY tattoo, so I did them myself. One is a 'crude' drawing of a snake and the other is an 'X' which is a Norse rune that means gift. I'm Norwegian/Japanese so that's where that came from. They didn't hurt much but I did have a glass of wine beforehand!
I'll post a photo later!
