Rib tattoo, not sure if heavily bruised or blowout.

By loorop01 · Started January 18

Hey! New here but not new to tattoos. I've never bruised after a tattoo but most of my tats are on non sensitive areas of my body like my arms and thighs. I got a sternum/rib tattoo and seriously the MOST painful tattoo I've had. I don't know if the artist was heavy-handed, if it was the nature of the type of tattoo I got (super thick lined ornamental piece), or if my skin is sensitive but I am still SO SORE. I feel like I got punched in the gut. Anyways, I got this tattoo 6 days ago. I am 3

Heavy red ink scabs that are cracking and looks wet possible allergy or infection?

By Monza · Started January 15

Problems with the red ink, this tattoo is only 7 day old, the placement of my tattoo is on my thigh, i appreciate all of your advices. Thank you. 1. Has cracks on it and within those cracks the red ink looks wet, as you can see on the pictures. 2. When i wash it and tap it gently with some paper towels i still can get some little red inks. 3. The part where the red ink still stings when i moved my leg. I appreciate all of your advices. 3

Friday the 13th tattoo

By mhm2020 · Started January 15

Just wanted to share some new flash I got yesterday, my favorite tattoo shop was running a Friday the 13th promotion and I decided to go for it! Getting custom drawn flash is so much fun. you can really tell how much the artists love each one of their drawings and I am always proud to wear the best of their work. Tattoos like this make me very happy 😊 This one was done by Max at Pretty Sturdy Tattoo in Denver. He has tattooed me before, I love his work. Really all the artists at the shop are ama3
