  1. Hustle butter is amazing shit, I used it for the first time with the second session of my sleeve and it’s so moisturising and lasts for hours. If it’s greasy, I’d still be washing it 2-3 times a day. Shiny is normal... apply all over the tattoo (including flaking areas - totally normal). Don’t use a lot as mentioned by @oboogie that stuff, once warmed up in your hands, goes on like butter. when I used hustle butter I washed my hands thoroughly and then rubbed it in the palm of my hand and gently applied it to the tattoo. If you feel there’s excess, use a paper towel and dab it.
  2. Have you washed it good? Mine did this to a certain degree but then I washed it and it was fine....
  3. I haven’t got any back pieces done but I have my shoulder. Why not try wearing a bikini top? Then that way there’s only two strings to contend with and they can be untied when he gets to the center. Your front would still be covered (you’d be lying on your stomach most likely, or maybe sitting in a chair leaning on the back?). Your sleeve is amazing, I love it.
  4. Ours does the same but he pees while doing it 🙃. He’s mental. Lol. We have a mini too, he’s 25 pounds and he’s adorable. Totally not tattoo related but here’s a pic of them.
  5. Amen to the pets lol. I have two very hyper active golden doodles, one is 75 pounds and thinks he’s a lapdog and is so clumsy with his giraffe legs it’s not funny LOL.
  6. I haven’t used saniderm but I’ve used tegaderm and after the initial reaction it was great.
  7. I used tattoo goo soap for the second section of my sleeve. Ran out of dial too. I actually purchased hustle butter to give it a try, that shits amazing. I’d highly recommend it. It smells amazing and after you warm it up in your hands, literally goes on like butter. I use it on my legs after I shave too 🤷🏻‍♀️😂
  8. Google “water colour flowers”. I think it’s a mixture of water colour and neo as @SStu mentioned. Very pretty flower. Where are you based?
  9. LOL This is F***ing out there 🤣. First time I saw this. What a load of shit.
  10. Holy potatoes Batman. That’s bloody terrible! I’d highly suggest you let the artist know also... who knows if it was picked up there or during the mending process. Either way, it’s good to inform them. I’m so sorry to that you’ve had such a rough time. I hope you heal up ASAP and you’re able to enjoy your tattoo, finally.
  11. Goodluck with your healing. The first one is always a little scary! Lol. How long ago did you have it done? I’m with the others on this, definitely stop using ointment. It needs to dry up and breathe, right now it looks like it’s suffocating. You’ll be right tho. Give it a few days without anything on it and it should dry up nicely.
  12. Wow. I’m glad you picked up on that @oboogie... I didn’t even put two and two together. Don’t come here asking for advice when you’re doing that shit yourself and taking a huge risk!
  13. @Snick how are you doing? Any progress?
  14. It’s pretty well done in my opinion. Definitely don’t see a swastika and honestly I think your “friend” probably doesn’t realise how much damage that comment has done. It definitely looks like a 4 and I never would have thought otherwise. I think it’s easy for people to criticise someone because 1. They’re jealous 2. They’re insecure or 3. They’re just an outright asshole. it’s been a year in the making, don’t let a stupid untrue comment like that, prevent you from enjoying it.
  15. Also, blowout can’t be “fixed”... unless it’s covered or added to, to disguise. Give it time to heal and then see where you’re at.
  16. It’s way too early to tell... you’re going to need to give it a few weeks before you can assess it properly. 3 days is nothing in the scheme of healing a tattoo.
  17. That looks super painful! Goodluck. Hope it heals up ASAP. As previously mentioned it does look like it’s been smothered which isn’t allowing the tattoo to dry out. I’m not sure what kind of cream you’re using but it almost looks like you’re using petroleum jelly/Vaseline and used FAR too much, and that stuffs the worst as it doesn’t allow your tattoo to breathe.... Did the doctor take any samples from it? It could be the anti biotics that were prescribed weren’t correct for the bacteria. I hope you manage to get some answers. Keep us posted.
  18. I wonder 🙊. I’m kinda the same, but my female motherly instincts kick in when I’m too much of a Jackass then I feel bad lol
  19. Play nice lol. You crack me up, I’ve seen so many of your posts and can’t help but giggle BUT some are sensitive. I feel there are two kinds of people who get tattoos (and this is me generalising)... ones who panic and worry, and ones who don’t give a shit and appreciate it for what it is.
  20. LMFAO @ that GIF 🤣🤣 that cracked me up! honestly I think most people just want some kind of reassurance in most aspects with their questions. I know the main reason I joined initially was cause I had a crack on the inside of my ditch (little did I know there was a thread from years ago about healing ditches etc). Then I got paranoid about infection because I just lost my job and don’t have health insurance and you know the funniest thing? This is the first tattoo I can actually see, and saw during the healing process. The rest of mine are shoulder, collarbone, back. I mean I can see my collarbone in the mirror but not infront of my face like my arm... I honestly think that’s partly the issue, if you can see it, you can dwell on imperfections, how it’s healing etc etc. 🤷🏻‍♀️
  21. Holy cow dude. That’s sweet! How many hours did it go be up taking? Did around your nipples suck!? I feel like that would be really tender lol
  22. Oh I know. I’ve been going back to a few years and there’s loads of the same stuff. Especially around Tattoo anxiety! I was actually surprised.. now maybe I’m weird because I never went through any of that...only type of anxiety I get is when I’m sitting there waiting for the artist to stab me with needles for hours LOL.
