    Info my first tat

    I am having a shoulder and chest piece (not down to the nipple) of a koi fish with some waves, the head of the koi fish will be on my chest, then the tail going over my shoulder and down my arm to just before the sleeve line


    will update with pics once it done, I booked in for nov for an all day sesh !

    anyone else got any koi fish tats to share?

    thanks

    Thanks to Nikki

    It's going to hurt like a motherfucker. I have tattoos on both sides of my chest in similar places and it has to be the most painful experience of my life. Totally worth it and no regrets what so ever...you have been warned though

    Oh and this is DF. So only post pics if you're positive it came out well or be prepared to be ripped a new one Nikki!!!

    Thanks to cyprus

    Go big or go home, that's the spirit! Have a good solid meal before hand and a sugary drink throughout, maybe even some of those Lucozade tablets. Newbies tend to white out , so be prepared! Don't ask the tattooist how long is left but do tell him/her if you feel faint!
    Who is doing the work?

    Thanks to Tattooed Freak

    What colour you looking at? Have you researched the meanings of the different colours?

    Buy something called super juice it's a good number during the session.

    Make sure you've really thought about getting one as in currently getting laser removal and it hurts you and your wallet.

    Novemeber has come and gone, what did you get? Hope you didn't use numbing cream, you need to earn it...
