Durability-wise? Pain-wise? Covering or showing-wise? Where did you inked your first one?

      I second this, don’t get in your friends basement OR garage after a night of drinking.

        A lot of things can go wrong with unhygene tattoo practice. Most notably nasty infection.

        Never skimp on tattoo!

      Best tattoos are done in prisons. Those are the tattoos with depth and meaning. Much more organic than store bought tattoos. The tattoo artist has a bond to their tools, as they’ve crafted the tools themselves and they mix the ink right in your cell. And besides, anyone can get a tattoo, but you will have a tattoo with a story and real price. Imagine instead of going oh that? I got that tat because I was bored and had spending cash, you can say I got that tat when I was locked up for robbing Wendy’s with an alligator, the infection almost cost me my arm, but it was worth it

      Obviously that was all /s but somehow I think I need to point it out.
