Hello everyone! I'm new to the community and feeling very excited, seeing how everyone seems to be so helpful and friendly. First of all, excuse me if my english is not perfect as it is not my native language 😛 

I know this is not the correct forum for this topic but somehow I'm not able to post on the "tattoo advice" section. 

So I got a new tattoo this week on my right arm and I really love it! The artist made an amazing job and did exactly what I asked for. Now here's the problem: when I'm wearing a t-shirt, the lion's mane that pops out under the sleeve just looks .. weird. I'm just not feeling it. I'm thinking to add some savanna trees under the lion to fill that space.

Am I being paranoid or does it look weird? It's definitely not the artist fault but mine for not seeing the lion's mane was too long. I'm sending photos so you can picture what I mean. Thank you so much in advance.

Doesn't look weird to me . . . but more tattoos below it would be pretty normal, too. 

Thank you for the feedback. I had people telling me it looks absolutely normal and others telling me it looks "out of place" since you cannot see what's on the shoulder with a tshirt. I might tattoo some savanna trees under the mane to look more composed, what do you think?

The lion itself looks awesome. I'd just get another tattoo underneath it and try to incorporate the lions mane into it ?

Either way  I like it

Thanks @MakaveliX! Do you have any suggestion? I thought about savanna tree's silhouette. Trying to have other ideas to choose my favorite one

More tattoos is always a great option for forum members. 

Don't give a shit about what the public thinks. 38% of them are Morons.

      big Problem after tattooing.

      By Hogrider · Posted

      First let me say I've never seen exactly that related to tattoos. Second, I am NOT a doctor, so take any advice with a grain of salt and follow it at your own risk. I do have something like that which appears on my face from time to time. After multiple visits to the dermatologist, which didn't fix it, I finally came up with my own treatment. Whenever it flairs up, I just wipe the area down with plain rubbing alcohol three or four times a day to keep it dry. That usually works within a couple of days. Again, I'm not a doctor, but I don't think it would hurt anything for you to try that. Good Luck.

      big Problem after tattooing.

      By zomno · Posted

      Hey, I have a serious problem! I got a tattoo in Manila 4 weeks ago. The artist is very well known and is one of the most renowed. 2 day after tattooing, small pimples began to form on my thight an many at the tattoo. 3 days later i had fever at night (just at night). After that, the pimpels began to spread very quickly all over the body. (back stomach etc..) I have now been to 3 doctors and everyone is at a loss. The blood work is fine and with no anomalies. Antibiotic ointment and cortisone ointment did not help. Xyzall allergy tablets did not help either. When i took cortisone tablets, 90% of the pimpels disappeared on the tattoo, but not on the other parts of the body. Now that I´am no longer taking cortisone, the pimpels on the tattoo are starting to grow back again very quick. On the other parts of the skin , the pimpels are sometimes lighter and sometimes stronger. This can be change hourly. They don´t hurt and hardy lever itch. Of course I´am afraid of a tattoo allergie. Has anyone already had this problem ? Does anyone know what that could be ? I add photos: 1) Photo directly after tattooing. 2) 2 Photos with the pimpels after a week 3) After 3 weeks while taking cortisone. 4) Photo of the body on the left.
