daveb Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I've been thinking about getting one and finally settled on a general idea, but not a specific design. Also, I don't know how to find a good tattoo artist. And tend to procrastinate. Link to post Share on other sites

Meaning numbing cream. It really works for me and takes the edge off. My pain tolerance is next to nothing. I felt like I was going to die during my first one! I also did a lot of uncontrollable twitching. It was pretty embarrassing. When I'm numb, however, I can relax and let the artist work. Anyway, confessions of a super wimp. Aaah actually thank you for telling!! I was considering something like that but I didn't really know if that was possible ;_; I'm kind of scared of the pain so I think I'll give that a try!

Same ;_; haha I think it's probably better tho? Like you want to find someone who will do a good job so you have time to look some artists up! Also I think it's better to get tattoed during like autumn /winter? So we have to wait anyway xD Link to post Share on other sites

Alejandrogynous Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Colder months are better for tattoos because you need to keep it out of the sun while it's healing, and you can't submerge it in water. So no pool parties for you! But if that's not your scene, and if it's in a spot that would be covered anyway, summer tats are fine. Link to post Share on other sites
daveb Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I avoid the sun and getting submerged in water as much as I can anyway. Link to post Share on other sites

south paw Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I'm sure i am going to end up getting a tattoo during some period in my life....maybe during college. I have a full note page of ideas and placement areas. 😎😁 Link to post Share on other sites
Shay21 Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I only have one right now, it's a Celtic mother & daughter symbol on my arm right above my elbow. My mom has the same one on her forearm, and both are emerald because that's our birthstone. I'll definitely be getting more in the future! Link to post Share on other sites
