OT - Tattoos

Some artists don't give you tattoos but give you scars.

I found that out the hard way :-( I spent ages researching local artists to do my first, then finally decided upon one who had tattooed a few of my friends (a professional obviously lol) but he tattooed too deep in to my skin and as a results parts of it became keloid scars so now I have a tattoo which is partly raised and partly smooth :-( so I decided never to go to him again

After that it took a while for me to even want another one just in case it happened again, but then I decided on a new design when a tattoo shop opened up around the corner, so after a few months of waiting and speaking to people who had been I finally decided to go and get one there. Best decision I've made :-) there are 2 artists there and now I wouldn't go anywhere else, they are both amazing and I've never had any problems :-)
