Tattoo Decision

for you're conch it's an awful lot better from anyone i know that's done it. the thing with stretching your conch is that the cartilidge doesn't really have anywhere to go, whereas with your lobes it can move more freely. makes it harder to heal and you get that "preasure" sensation for a while when you're healing it.

with a punch granted it's a more open would you're healing but it should take fairly well comparitivley.

I've always said that if I get too much crap from stretching it then I'll get it punched, but I definitely prefer the idea of stretching over punching. Benefit is, I suppose, that I could get it punched straight to 10mm rather than having to stretch! :/

I think I managed to upset my tattooist

I went for my return appointment and he was closed. I wasn'tbest pleased as I had taken the afternoon off work. So I went for a quick drink and returned back 15 minutes later - still closed. Checked appointment card - yep that's ok.

So I rang the number on the door which was a mobile - "Hello, It's Paul Hudson, I'm supposed to be having my tattoo done at 3:30"?

"Yes mate not now, my father has dropped down with a heart attack this morning"

How crap did I feel.

You weren't to know, nothing you could really do about it other than wish him the best. I'm sure he will phone you when he is back working.

[Nutcase]

Agreed, unless he answered his phone "Hi my Dad is..." then not a lot you could have done. Doesn't stop you feeling like you've put your foot in it does it?

A few years back I was in the Hot House in c'ford, and noone was behind the bar. One of the other punters pointed at a window through to another room saying "they're in there". So I thought to make it clear I would like to be served, I waved my empty glass at the window to see one of the staff in floods of tears looking my way. I felt =><= that big.

[Pheebs]

Aww don't worry dude, really wasn't your fault you didn't know.

*big hugs* I'm sure he'll understand.

[BBx]

oh dear... Feel awful for the bloke... but another holiday to add to mondays too.

All done.

After another one and a half hours work.. here's the final job:







I think the colour has made a big difference.


I have to say it was more painfull than the first session as he had to go over the same spot sometime 3 times and the shading and the two colours where added. There is a hint of yellow but this won't come out until the tattoo has healed.
