Nowhere near any of you with running, but as mentioned earlier I picked up running on a whim after reading about the C25K programme on here...swapped to zombies run 5k in the meantime as that's a bit more fun to listen to, but rather proud to say I'm still on it! I decided that I'll reward myself with kicking off the next tattoo once I've done my first 5k run....makes a rather good incentive I noticed, haha!
Just completed week 6, so not too long to go anymore I hope...

Another Android user here :-(
Looks like a cool idea though. Keep us posted on the magazine as well as your own tattoo projects if you like!

Wow, that's fantastic! I bet the fish get confused when you go diving and they see your back

Fair enough, just thought you might enjoy the thread. I get where you're coming from though.
I don't know anything about lasering, but I believe there is an expert on this forum, too. Have you seen this?

Thanks very much for the advice. I am going to wait a while before going ahead with another session. I think I need to just book a consult with another artist so that I can be reassured that it can be fixed or covered up and then I can relax.
Sounds like a good plan, don't rush it! In the meantime, do lots of research and check out some more Dragons if you like ;-)
Hope you end up happier next time! You've come to a great place for advice here, so you're on a good way...

Hey welcome. As you don't seem to be sure yet what you're after, I'll throw in a few new traditional artists that do nice colourful creatures I think:
None of them in Scotland I'm afraid, but all UK. As you're from the US I figured the distance might not be an issue for you??
Anyway, take your time and enjoy the research!

I kinda noticed that I seem to predominantly like female artists, although I'm not actually looking for it as such.
High on my list at the moment are Claudia de Sabe, Wendy Pham and especially Emily Rose Murray.
The first two are within reach for me, but Australia is sooo far away, damn it...

There's a chance you'll have to pay an import fee, and they're 'holding' it. If so, you'll recieve a letter saying how much you have to pay. It happens to me all the time.
That's a good point. Happened to me once as well when I ordered T-Shirts from the US. It's been so long ago that I forgot about it though.
Oh well, as long as they didn't get lost.

Not sure I understand why exactly you want to open a tattoo shop when you're not into tattoos??? Why not open a candy shop or sell car parts or whatever it is you're into, you must have some hobbies or interests, too?
Sure, there may be tattoo artists out there who could do with help from someone with business skills, but they'd probably be better off with someone who has both, business skills and a passion for tattoos...which almost certainly exists. Well, good luck anyway...

@outrenthome From what I read here, people leave it on 2-6 days. I think I left mine on for four or five days because I felt like the tegaderm was protecting the area quite well and allowed me to almost forget about the tattoo. Doing so seemed perfectly fine.
As others said, no lotion under or on top of the derm. You'll need the lotion once you've taken the derm off. I'm no expert, but I'd say whenever it feels like it needs it, a couple of times a day. Just remember, thin layer of lotion only.

Has anyone ordered prints to the UK before? How long did it take?
Been waiting for almost three weeks...I want them...now! Just getting a bit impatient I suppose...

I didnt know women weren't girls! Learn something new every day! I will leave you to burn your bras!
SENT FROM MY LG G FLEX ON THE NOW NETWORK FROM SPRINT!?✌
Clear case of APOLOGY FAIL.
I'm afraid it seems like your level of maturity matches that of your lady friends.

I saw this and said DAMN, Barbie got some ink!

Gosh...Barbie...!?!
I will give you the benefit of doubt and assume this was meant to be a compliment... but just so you know, most women have no interest whatsoever in looking even remotely like a stupid doll.

Just managed to sit through my first tattoo, finally, yay! Done by Anthony Cole at Silver Needles in Southend. Very happy with my choice. Thanks so much to everyone on this forum for helping to create such a great resource, I learnt a lot here.

@polliwog a couple of friends have had great success with the Couch to 5km program for building up their fitness.
I blame you for posting this...I got curious, had a look at the link and decided pretty spontaneously to give it a try. Never ran in my life (except in primary school I think) and always thought I'd hate it. But I need to get fit and this sounded doable. So I downloaded the C25k app, bought some shoes and off I went for my first ever run yesterday! I must be going crazy, because I'm actually looking forward to the next one tomorrow now... :-)

Also i just googled Marjoca, Spain.... that place looks beautiful.
Haha, no offense, but this made me laugh somehow...and also made me realise how narrow my own horizon is actually. I don't think I've ever met someone who said they hadn't heard of Majorca before. But then, I'm from Germany and it's "our" most popular holiday destination...
Besides, some very nice recommendations in here already, hope you find something that suits you @Jack Wright.

Hey, it's not brilliant, but not bad enough to go into the 'worst tattoos ever' thread either, I'd say ;-) I'm sure someone on here will be able to help you find fantastic tattooers in Spain (are you willing to travel anywhere within Spain? If not you might want to be a bit more precise...) and then it's probably best to go and see someone in person to get a professional opinion.
Good luck and welcome!

I've been to the "Tattoo Art Today" exhibition at Somerset House in London yesterday. Highly recommended, it's not huge but a nice collection indeed. I particularly liked Horiyoshi 3's silk paintings and of course, Horitomo's Monmon Cat ;-)
-
@abees, I don't really mind which one as they seem to be rather similar? I was just under the impression that getting Tegaderm was easier in the UK. I checked the Saniderm shipping cost now and they want £10, not too bad actually.
@polliwog Do you remember which size you used? Is a width of 4inch good?

I'd like to try this fantastic sounding stuff when I get my thigh done, but not sure what exactly it is I need to look for?
I've found this on amazon but am slightly confused by the "non-adherent absorbent pad" mentioned in its description...is this what I want to buy? :confused:
Any clarification would be much appreciated before I go off and waste my money on the wrong product...

Whoa, I did it and booked an appointment for my first tattoo! It's not until early November, but the inevitable 'what have I done' feeling is setting in already...I'll probably scrutinize instagram hourly to make sure I've made the right decision. I wished it wasn't soooo long!!

Well, hadn't even thought of running with other people so far. I'll be super glad if I just manage to somehow survive the last run of the programme, which should be 5k....although, I think there is a weekly 5k in my local park...hm...

Wow, that's so random to meet you on LST! Cool, I now know that Runner Six has awesome tattoos, so it'll be even more fun to run with 'you' ;-)
