I did some lines on the bottom of my foot, over ten years ago.
It faded but, it took years to do so,
I think it may be from the constant use more than anything.
It fucking kaned, but it went in well at the time.

You must have to tattoo over some pretty crayzee looking, fooked up skin. LOL. best send them to the next best parlour. Excema would be too gnarly to tatty over. You would HAVE to wait until it clears up, no doubt. (slightLOL)

If you are about to leave a comment, please be as polite and positive as possible. I am sick of getting smart ass comments about my work, by users who have no tattoos in their gallery and users who NEVER EVER post any of their own goods. I know kids have fun putting others down. THINGS don't change. But let's try to be adults here.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I HATE EATING SPINACH and MUSHROOMS and I don't like watching or listening to some things too. YOU, on the other hand might LOVE eating that shit and listening to....'whatever'

If anyone ever states that "I should be ashamed of myself for tattooing", I say to them......."Tell that to my clients ASS HOLE"
THANK YOU

anywhere other than across the upper back is a bitch to get to... i guess experience will stop the need for asking the recipient to move umpteen times.. and cut 15 mins off the time it takes to start..

A few people have mentioned elbow skin as not holding ink very well. Anyone else have experience of this, either from the giving or receiving end? Can an elbow hold ink well?

from my understanding and from my experience, all skin is different in how it responds to ink ("takes ink") and also in how it holds ink. some people just have skin that takes ink well and some people do not. some people's skin treat ink as a foreign body (which it is) very aggressively in areas and just have difficulty with ink staying in. sometimes it is just limited to certain colors. it is impossible to get the exact response from different people. everyone is just not the same.
