Asthma Inhaler Jim

i got a reply from the tattoo artist guys 🙂 i was getting worried. i probably would have tried to book him on a later date if he hadnt replied but good thing he did.

i DM'd a tattoo artist i want to book on instagram and he said hed love to do the tattoo for me. he gave me a price range and he told me two dates hed be available but when i asked what time would be okay for him for one of the dates he didnt respond. all of this took place within two DM exchanges (2 from me, 2 from him) which he responded to in about 1-2 days. on i think last thursday he posted on his instagram that he would be answering all of his emails and DMs that day and the next but my DM still didnt get answered. I waited about five days (since the last DM i sent) and sent him a DM again asking about what time would be okay for him. its now been a week and he still hasnt responded. today was actually one of the two dates he said hed be available so i obviously didnt meet with him. the other date he said he was available on is coming up next week so im still hoping ill get a response before then. i plan on sending him another DM maybe thursday to try and get some confirmation on meeting up for an appointment. on one hand -he said hed love to do it -he gave me a price -he gave me dates hed be available on the other hand - his responses went from 1-2 days to it being a week with no reply - he posted on his instagram that hed be answering all of his DMs and emails but didnt reply to my DM - one of the dates he said he was available has already passed with no response from him im not sure what to think.

lol thanks for the reply, is reddit not a good place for tattoo information? i posted my question in the r/tattoos subreddit.

guys im not sure what to do, i asked people on reddit if they thought i was being over charged and about 14 people responded saying that they thought it was overpriced.

i kind of thought it was a lot too. the shop that the artist works at charges 200$ per hour but im not sure if his price was based on an hourly fee or if it was the cost he was giving for a single tattoo. im trying to find out what it would cost from the second artist i posted but i havnt gotten a response yet.

what about compared to this artists work? here is his instagram Sawooli (@tattoosbysawooli) • Instagram photos and videos one thing i should maybe say is most of this artists work is not in this style. also ive gotten a small name tattoo from him before and it came out satisfactory.

guys i need some advice on whether i should go to this artist or not. so basically heres the tattoo i want to get but i want it with out color sort of like this . heres an artist i have contacted. This is his instagram T O B Y • J A M E S 💔 (@tobyjamez) • Instagram photos and videos here are a few tattoos hes done that sort of match the style i was looking for. the tattoo i want to get is roughly 3 inches high and 2 and a quarter inches wide. I sent him a message asking if i could afford the tattoo i wanted from him for $400 dollars. he said for a tattoo that size his price would be around $400 dollars i have 2 questions 01. Do you think his work matches my tattoo needs? i thought hed be a good choice since he does a lot of video game and cartoon type tattoos. But im not sure if there are details that i am overlooking about the quality. 02. does the price seem like its fair?

I was thinking of getting a tattoo on my forearm in a place thats not quite on the top, or the side of it, but on the curvature between the top and the side. i suppose this will cause the tattoo to kind of wrap around the curvature a little bit. is this something that should be avoided for any reason?

thanks guys

I was considering getting a new tattoo in color which includes red. I read that red ink has the highest chance of allergic reaction. Does a red ink allergy ruin the tattoo? or is it just a temporary thing that disappears leaving the tattoo looking normal after? Does anyone have any experience with red tattoo ink allergic reactions?

i have a tattoo of the logo from Anti by Rihanna

If small tattoos are the hardest to do, what are the easiest ones for tattoo artists to do?

there are things that i have anxiety about with tattoos of mine that i didnt think about before i got them. one of my tattoos is the name of a person who died. there are others who knew the person, and i sort of have anxiety about them wondering if its alright for me to have their name tattooed on me. also i have anxiety about some family members and friends of my family seeing them. i dont really have a problem with just wearing clothes that make them invisible but its something that came to mind after i got tattooed. i feel like people cant be expected to be imaginative enough to really think about every single possible way a tattoo will effect their lifestyle. even with that said though i kind of feel bad about not having the mental creativity to come up with the questions that would have lead to the answers that would have helped me.

thanks for the replies guys 😐 This makes me kind of nervous about it. so the images i posted are correct then according to those rules right?

So im planning out my next tattoo and there are three places im thinking i could possibly get it. lower stomach, inner forearm, and shoulder. Could you guys tell me if the orientation im planning is correct? here is what id like to get Here are the placements i was thinking of

is there such thing? which is worse to you?

thou shalt look up "which way should wrist tattoos face?" before getting one. i wish i had done this before i got mine facing me. 🙃

I only have three but my favorite is probably my first because its the only one i have that i dont really have a problem with.

ive had to get a touch up before but it was with dark blue ink. after it healed it just looked like parts of the tattoo were faded. the guy at the tattoo shop told me my skin would hold on to black or dark ink better than lighter colors.

Im not sure if its exactly what you are saying but after my first tattoo i got healed, there was a time when i thought i felt some sort of tinglyness in that area of my arm and actually thought to myself maybe it was an allergic reaction to the ink. i havnt really felt anything like that since then though.

i only have three tattoos but the one that hurt the most was one i got on my inner wrist right below my hand.

Hope everything works out for the OP. i have two tattoos i dont really like the placement of. i got them on my wrist facing me instead of the other way. when my arms are to my side they appear upside down to others. from the stuff ive read on the internet and this thread it seems like its not a guarantee that it can be fully removed. Also one of mine is in blue ink which i think is harder to remove. they are both kind of small, maybe about 2 square inches. one is shaped in a way that i think i can maybe get a black tetris block tattoo to cover it perfectly. im not sure about a cover up though because its something that i probably wouldnt have wanted to get in the first place. both tattoos are kind of rough but i think if they were at least positioned the other way i could live with them and not really be annoyed by it. for now im just going to try to ignore the annoyance i have with them.

do you think you can point out where the shaky lines are in the picture i posted? and maybe post pictures of tattoos where the plain lines are cleaner quality? also i was wondering is plain lines the name of the style of that type of tattoo? if i was looking for a tattoo artist who specialized in that type of style what would it be called?

thanks for the help. im not sure if im going to use that artist.

here is what id like to get but without the red or yellow sort of like this here are a few cartoon type tattoos done by the artist i was thinking about using.
