Thanks very much. We both worked hard on these. She got those earrings at a local craft show a few weeks back.

She does have many awesome tattoos.
She actually just got a new one last week.

Ooooo niice! Did it hurt a lot? That area is quite sensitive

She said it was pretty terrible. Close to one 5 hour session to finish it. I can relate because my belly tattoo was my worst for certain. Although it took me 12 hours (multiple sessions) to complete my legendary bird trio several years back.

Oooo so so cool! Oh gosh this must have hurt a lot!The colors are still super vibrant, I like it. The tattoo artist had a lot of patience to do this! I like the snowflakes too. Getting a tattoo is not easy, I have read about the prices and also about the amount of work involved. Color work is tough. Do you have any black and grey too?

Colors are my favorite. I have such a wide variety. A bit of my background on my first sleeve is black and grey, but pretty much everything else is all color.

The pain is worse than the money. Money comes and goes, but I’ll never forget the feeling of the needle stuck into my skin like leeches.

Ay ay ay...I saw an ad for tattoo numbing cream. It is supposed to make the pain go away..i wonder if it works

It does work actually. Too bad I didn’t learn about it until after 90+ hours of tattoos.

There is a type of cream that you put on after you’ve already been tattooed some, usually after the outline. There has to be open wounds for it to work. Can work for a couple hours, but it does wear off eventually.

ULTRANUMB lidocaine 6% 10g

There is another type that is similar, you put it on before the tattoo and cover it with Saran Wrap and wait for awhile. Then once you get to the shop remove it and it should work for a few hours.
GREENCAINE BLAST lidocaine 4% gel 4 Oz. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00I080RUW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_ANFJ5302P8NT3V7QVY6S

For extremely long sessions this can help a lot of people. You really don’t feel a thing besides vibrations. Some look at it as cheating, but it’s totally your choice of course. Some people want to go through the pain and some do not.
