When its all healed the pain will be long forgotten and be back in the chair for your 2nd tat. I have only had one that truly hurt and that was on my ribs. I have 8 now and can't wait to get #9. It's an expensive addiction, but so worth it.

The snake looks great! Congrats!!!

Awesome Aleesh! I just love watching yours and your hubby's tattoos evolve. Yours are the Best type of tattoos around.. symbolizing meaningful things, family, and beliefs. It is not like someone just getting a picture out of the flash book because their acquaintence likes it. It comes frm the heart!

yup sure does. we are mirroring the colours from the lilies on my sleeve for the dragons on his arm. so our son is orange (the one pictured above) my youngest is purple and the eldest is pinks and deep burgundy. my hubby is totally man enough to carry off pink on his arm... so he's going to do it!!!

Well, originally I wanted a tattoo of a life like snake around my thigh, but decided to go for something else on my back Still thinking about the snake though - I've wanted it for years.. but am quite happy with the dragon.

Kinda hard to take a pic of your own back

WOW.. that is a high-caliber tattoo for sure! I don't think that you need me to tell you that Awesome shading, sharp points, and lining.. Wow. Definately a top-notch artist there!

Def. use vitamin E ointment or they make this stuff called tattoo goo thats pretty good stuff too. i have 4 tats and always used vitamin E ointment and used tattoo goo once. Both are great! but honestly my brother in law used vasoline and it ruined his tattoo not sure why but he had to get it covered up. none the less thats cool lookin tat ya got!

That is definately sound advice. A/D ointment is an easily-obtainable ointment for most people to use. Tattoo Goo works well also from my husband's experience. Neosporin is not a good choice.
