The biggest thing holding me back from going ahead with a tattoo is the needle. Hate them with a passion but can tolerate it when I get a shot at the doctor's. Just not sure how I would react when I have one branding my skin :yikes:

I too hate needles, yet I have 9 tats. The tattoo needles are completely different and don't feel like a shot at all.

So now you can go for it! :yes:

I have Led Zeppelin's 4 symbols on my back, down my spine. They're nearly a week old :wink:, and they're my first tattoos . Here's a pic of them (I put this in my journal already but what the hey):

It doesnt actually feel like a needle at al, more of a burn. I didnt actually feel it like it was in my skin (i hate that sensation, when a needle is actually moving about in your flesh) I thought it only felt like it was moving about (a bit painfully so) over the surface of my skin.

:up: You should get a sleeve. I love sleeves :drool:
 
A guy at a party I was at on the weekend had one sleeve done and the other started...it looked cool....his bare forearm actually looked weird with everything else done!!
 
I was at something a few months ago and won a $75 gift certificate for a tattoo place...I think I'm going to get flags on either side of my lizard :hmm:
 
I'm getting some more stuff added to my lower back.. hopefully next weekend :up:
 
:applaud: You'll have to post pics Sicy....we're gonna get tattoos in Hawaii in December and I know what I want. I've been watching the tattoo shows on TV like mad Ink'd and Miami Ink, I love those shows! I :heart: tattoos!

How much has everyone paid for their art ?

Both of my tattoos were quite cheap, as they are relatively small. I have 'One:heart:' on my wrist and that cost £50 ($94.40) and I got a heart in a suitcase on my torso which cost £45 ($84.40).
I hear sleeves are quite expensive.. :drool:

I will have to check prices then , but sleeves are worth it :drool:
 
I paid $150 US for both of mine & for prices in my area, they were both a deal. I'm thinking about a third one... but it has to wait until I make it to Dublin. Which is going to be a lot longer than I had hoped. :grumpy: :(
 
I am in so much pain right now :scream:
