How is this tattoo going to age?

By oboogie · Posted 5 minutes ago

@duckgoosed, it will probably end up looking like a black blob in a few years. Nothing you can do about it now. Just enjoy it and get more tattoos.

You don't have to shave it after you get it tattooed. Just leave it and live with it.

How is this tattoo going to age?

By duckgoosed · Started 18 hours ago

I posted this tattoo in reddit. And got people telling me its just going to turn in to a black blob.... I know this particular tattoo might not age well but its still going to look like a typewriter no? Stressing out as i just got this done a few days ago. Artist didn't express any concern with the aging of this tattoo. PS I could only post in this forum section. I'm not sure why. Maybe because i have to post here before i can post anywhere else? 3

Did my tattoo artist go too deep?

By CrazyConfused · Started Yesterday at 06:04 AM

I just recently got my first tattoo last week, and the minute I left the shop I noticed the lettering and heart on my tattoo looked kind of carved into my skin rather than tattooed. Now that I have had this tattoo for about a week I can notice alot of the ink is fading away and the lettering is looking patchy. I feel like the tattoo artist went abit too deep, deep enough to carve into my skin. What should I do???? I've been caring for it (washing and moisturizing 4x a day) like I was told to and3

I'm trying to find shinji horizakura, who supposedly works at a private studio in NYC. I can't find any way of contacting him or locating his studio. Any clues? 3
