How to get another tattoo"Finally -- I'd been wanting a second tattoo for years!"
How I did it: I chose to use the same studio I used when I got my first tattoo done - I had been pleased at that time with their safety and cleanliness practices. I made sure that the same practices were still enforced. I met with the artist before getting the tattoo done, explained what I wanted, and he drew it out on tissue paper until we had it perfect. Then he imprinted the design on my skin, so he could copy that with the ink. I was so pleased with it when it was finished - it was just exactly what I wanted. I'm glad I finally got this done. Lessons & tips:
Resources: I used Splash of Color in East Lansing, Michigan.

How I did it: I had been thinking of adding more to my 3rd tattoo, but didn't know exactly what I wanted to do. I went online looking for ideas, then finally decided to keep it simple. Idea in mind, I began asking my tattooed friend where they hd gone to get inked, and which artists they would suggest. A few friends spoke volumes of one studio and artist in particular, so I went in to see him.After telling him my idea, he said it was possible, but afte… Read how I did it…

I’m going either Tuesday or Wednesday! I challenged myself to get it before December 1st or I would let my daughter get one first. Well, she got hers last week…. so I guess I need to pick another penalty if I don’t get this done!

I have many ideas for something I want, one most:
Delete the adjectives.
In type writer font.
I means what it sounds like. Cut the crap. Say what you mean.
I want to be bold enough to put this on my wrist, like a braclet.
We’ll see.

I would like another tattoo, but I can’t decide what I want. It has to have meaning to me, otherwise, its just silly.

I was waiting at the tattooist’s last week and overheard him saying to another customer ‘I don’t do portraits.’
WTF?!
I was sitting there with my existing tattoos on full display. The woman he was talking to can’t not have seen them as she left.
It got me thinking.
And then it got me looking out online and asking some hard questions.
I realize, now, I’ve had no cheers on either of the original tattoo entries on this goal. Not one.
I’ve also had a rather ominous silence from most of the inked people I know online.
I have a horrible, horrible feeling I’ve been walking round with crap tattoos for the last…oh God, almost five years…and nobody much telling me, and me not realizing, which makes me feel…well, pretty crappy.
The weird thing is, I’ve had a few compliments on them too. A few. And a few people who recognized who they were meant to be.
I’ve also had some people get it horribly, drastically wrong.
My husband is still telling me they look fine. I’ve bitten the bullet and asked around online. A few people who aren’t inked themselves have told me that from what they’ve seen…they don’t look all that.
The inked people are still ominously silent.
I’ve made tentative enquiries with a couple of other tattooists, but I feel sick at the idea of even baring my arms to them if things are really as bad as I think they might be.
I just feel stupid.
My first tattoo was in 2007 and I wasn’t afraid. I planned this for four years and did research lol. I have a nautical star on my right wrist. Whenever I look at it, I fall in love all over again. I’m hoping to get one on my shoulder or upper back next year. I’ve adored tattoos since I was 11 years old and will keeping on loving them till I grow very old.
