(taking its specialized nature and extra time due to not using a conventional gun?)

I get the "You look like Jesus" thing all the time with my hair down It's never down, always up in a hat

The price for yours might be a little more but not much.....some do it cheaper because they enjoy doing it that way

Not if it is done right. It's a very slow process. One gauge size a month, Matt's is over a 4 year time period. If done to fast, yea it will hurt.....

When you need it done let me know, I do it Also you can take vitamin C capsules and bust them open (The gel kind) and rub it onto the scar tissue and get them to go down some as well.....

My wife and I have tattoos she has a great back piece. 5 hours and she toughed it out. I need more work done though we have a great artist.

Yes it is! But the female piercing conversation still makes me throw up in my mouth! I feel sorry for you and gynocologists, the job is not as cool as it sounds.

What do you think is best to put on a fresh tat? Mostly I get told A&D but the last tat I got done the guy said to use Aquaphor, and he was really adamant about it, so I did.

The one I used Aquaphor on looks the best, but I kinda think that's because the other two were apprentice tats I got for 20 bucks each, and they look like crap because they are...

One of my wife's girl friends was with us when I got my first ink done. She was very adamant about it too. Aquaphor is all I have ever used. Ink still looks great too. I'm sure it's not the only stuff you can use, but I highly recomend it. If it's good enough for a baby's ass, I'm an ass all over, so it works well.

It's the best IMO A&D is ok for most people that don't want to spend the extra $ for the good stuff

Kenny I hear you mentioning tipping and am not in any way calling you out on it or anything, but how much cost is actually involved as far as the business is concerned?? Is there really that big of a loss when doing a job??

Just curious as to the profit/loss in your line of work. Surely you can't live on tips alone???


FWIW I had no idea your supposed to tip. I appreciate the heads up. I'll be sure to remember that on my first!
