Tattoo Addiction

Not What I Expected !

2008-01-16T15:44:00.001-05:00

You might be asking yourself why I say that, well actually the main reason is because I lost pretty much all the pigmentation on my new tattoo(which you can see below). I can see a little yellow, but the brown has been completely rejected. Good news is, that's not my fault apparently, Why? Because I did everything I was supposed to do, what my tattooist said I should. Bad news is, I go back to work in a week and I work with Nitrile Gloves all day long so it's very good if I get touch ups since this tattoo is on my fingers.

I came to the conclusion that, we will have to try again during the month of July (when I'm laid off for about 2 weeks), and I hope this time it will work better ...

After 4 Days

2008-01-07T12:52:00.000-05:00

After 3 days of putting Vaseline, having trouble to sleep because I can't put my hand anywhere, having trouble to dress up without putting Vaseline everywhere, I can finally breath a little bit. 4th day is the first day of "only some cream a couple of times a day" and also the day where it starts to getting freaking itchy, yes cuz it's healing so, but I have to be patient, to get things to do to forget how itchy it can be.

Not to forget that I'm really pleased with the result so I wouldn't want to mess things up by scratching it because it's still fragile, I will have to wait at least a week or more for it to be correctly healed.Remember, If you want to get tattooed on you fingers, think about it, cuz it hurts bad when the guy's doing the job !

Here a Picture of what it looks like right now :it will sure become a little more pale than that, but without anything on it, it looks a little bit different. I'll keep you updated with pictures and I'll post the second video in a bit !

Cheers

New Tattoo Session Today

2008-01-04T00:03:00.000-05:00

Hello Everyone,

Well, Today I was really exited to see what the next step was going to look like, sure I trust my Tattooist but .. you know .. seeing what it was like this morning before going there, My only worry was that the lines that were already there would prevent from getting the rings done the way I wanted it. Here's a Picture :

So I decided to bring some Golden rings pictures to the shop to make sure that we were going to get this looking like it as much as possible and I think I got what I wanted, actually I won't hide that it really hard to make it look like actual gold, having tried it myself but here it is :

If you are not familiar with Tattoos, and you're asking yourself if this is blood, well yes it is, remember that it's needles hitting the skin 1000's of time so it tend to sweat blood a little but it's not like flowing for hours

Here is the from further away, which I find is way better looking !!

Anyway, Thanx to Jeff, My tattooist

See you in a Bit !!

P.S. I'm still working on some other ideas, should be posted soon

My Biggest Tattoo Ever

2007-12-21T17:07:00.000-05:00

Well I said I was going to post a Picture Of the Biggest Tattoo I got. There it is. I got this Tattoo in memorial of my Brother who died 9 Yrs ago. He died on November 11th of 1998, He was 23 and I was only 18 at this time and it has been really painful. So the Egyptian numbers relate to the date he passed away, and you'll probably ask me why I chose a pendant with a cross, well my mom gave a pendant with a cross on it to my sister and myself because he was always wearing his on his neck so it was significant, then you'll ask me why to get it tattooed, could I just keep on wearing mine ?? I have 2 answers: The First one you already know it, I'm addicted to this Art and the pain it is to get tattooed(probably hard to understand for someone who's not tattooed yet), and The Second One is because where I work, I can't wear any jewels so instead of putting it on and off I decided I would be the best bet. What's with the color ? You probably already figured out that it is his birth color.

You Might want to Know if it's painful, well ..... Yes it is especially on the chest, and especially because it took 3hours to do it so but its worth it, believe me !

I will then end it there, I'll be posting soon on tattos Ideas I got throughout the years

Stay tuned for more

Here Are The Pics! Hope you enjoy it !

When I Got My First Tattoo

2007-12-03T16:53:00.000-05:00

Hey Everyone ..

Here's a short story 'bout how I got Addicted to tattoos .. I have to say to all of those who haven't have a tattoo yet ... DON'T GET ONE unless you are sure that it's what you want .. and if it's what you want then .. go on .. but .. something else to consider .. don't get any stupid thing for your first one .. So .. That said .. here we begin ..

I Was about 20 or something when I got my first, I was doing my IT course in college and I really didn't know what I would be doing for the rest of my life so, there always been on the back of my mind the pact that I made with my own self that before I turn 18 , I would get Tattooed, I would get my hair dyed blue (don't ask me why !!) and finally that i would get my tongue pierced. Well i don't have to tell you that I did not listen to myself since I got tattooed when i was 20, but the good thing is, I did get blue dyed hair (as well as many other colors) and also got my tongue pierced. You'll ask me why I wasn't tattooed yet at this time ? Was I Chickening out ? Did I change my mind cuz of my parents ? Hell no !! .. this is just the simple fact that tattoos need investment, sure you can get anything as big as a Dime for 'bout let's say 50 bucks (it's usually the basic investment no matter if you get a little black DOT or anything that takes less than 15 to 30 minutes to do ), but for me that wasn't what i wanted, I wanted something COOL, something big enough for people to see it even at 50ft from me and that's what I got a nice Tribal Designed Tattoo on the middle of my back which I found in the internet and just redesigned it !!

The fun part of it is that I actually didn't pay for it, why ? Cuz my GF at the time did !! I'm glad she did, but there's 2 sides, I still love the tattoo, but now I'm Addicted !!!

I'll talk about other tattoos later on and Why I fell in love with this art !!

Thx .. see you in a bit
