      little bumps under 6month old tattoo

      By Jae · Posted

      [mention]JessicaRae [/mention] posted elsewhere with updates about what hers turned out to be. Maybe take a look there to see if it’s similar. Either way - I suggest consulting your doctor if you’re worried. Better safe than sorry, many doctors offices are doing consultations over video call right now too.     Bumps on black ink: https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/8219-bumps-on-black-ink/

      Trash Polka?

      By Jae · Posted

      That’s what it seemed like to me when I thought about it too. But with the style I wonder how easily it could actually be added on to. I feel like it might depend on the initial tattoo and having the original artist understanding that was the point of the tattoo. But could that be said about another style as well or is this something that’s a bit more unique to trash polka.
