    I have full sleeve tattoos that started as piecemeal trauma tattoos. I get it.

      I’m still highly considering a tattoo, but now in a much more stable place, so my needle phobia is helping keep my canvas blank lol

        I really don’t like needles, but I’ve found that I really just don’t like them

        and I really enjoyed getting my tattoo other than the mild amounts of pain. I still love it.

          This has been my thought process when considering it. I’m hoping that when I get there that’ll be the case. I sew and have no problems with that, even if I get stuck, so I’m hoping once I’m there and in the chair it won’t be too bad. The next problem is that I am, to use the clinical term, a wimpy little wimpy wimp when it comes to pain, so I’ve got a couple hurdles to jump. Lol

            Aaaah. Start small then. I was going to and got basically a 1/3 sleeve because it just fit and looked better like that

              Oh wow, that’s a bit ambitious. I just want a small 1 inch tattoo on my inner wrist. I’m working on a design right now, but I’m not sure how to proceed exactly, because I have basically no artistic talent and can’t draw to save my life. Lol

                Yeah i really only intended something small and then… It just looked so good in the example…

                Oh you don’t need to draw more than just an example and then tell them what you want with examples of colors and shit… of it’s a good tattoo shop they’ll take care of the rest. If they give you shit it’s not a good shop
