Tattoos - October 2007

OK so I'm going to get my first tat but i need to make sure I'm not allergic to any of the inks, so my artist said i should first get a patch test to see.
my question is after thats done and if i am allergic to one of the inks what do i do.
i can't take benedryl so what should i do if the patch test gives me a allergic reaction?

I want this tattoo on the lower part of my back. Do you think it is too much for a woman? I am having the colors changed to be paler. Tell me what you think x

ive noticed there are a few. but what are they called??

1.) one is almost black with an almost bluish color. ive seen alot of prison ink like this.

2.) another is black but it has an almost bronze/rusty tint to it. i see it alot for angel wings on peoples backs.

3.) and the 3rd is black with an almost greenish/ "stone" looking color. its looks good on gargoyle tattoos cause it looks like it brings out a rock like look to it.

but once again what is each type of black ink called?

I was just watching MYTHBUSTERS and they did a segment on tattoo's and MRI scanners. The iron oxide in the ink can cause problems with the scan results but will not effect your body. EXAMPLE Blisters, Exploding, or such. My questions is there been anyone who has had a MRI or X-ray, or any other medical electronic procedure done to them affect thier tattoos at all? If so what was it? What did it do to the Tattoo?

What do you think about women with full sleeve tattoos? We're talking tasteful, QUALITY, feminine images that are really colorful and pretty. We're also talking about more mature women, 35-45 years old, whom have been collecting them for years. What are your impressions?

Probably one of the worst experiences of my life - and if I ever get over it, I want to get a tattoo to remind myself that it is in the past. I don't wan't to forget it, it's a huge part of who I am today. I also want to get it somewhere that is hidden because it is not for other people to see, besides my husband, because I am doing this for myself - not as a decoration.

So I need two suggestions - What I should get and where. I don't mind words, but I don't want like an entire verse running down my arm.

Just want to get a sense if you are out there or not so I know whether or not to ask specific questions relating to them here. There's no point for me to ask them if people are not involved with the modification scene or don't know about it so please tell me if you are a modern primitive or not. Thanks

In case you don't know they take body art a little more extreme than others. Some of them believe that eventually humans will evolve as a race and take body mods with more technological means. They get severe changes done to their bodies such as anal stretching, head piercing, ear cropping... They also are into scarification and flesh suspension.

Being a member of Janism, I have the fylfot tattooed on my shoulder. Almost EVERYONE I come across associates it with the Nazi Third Reich symbol and thinks I'm a all about white supremacy. I now come to regret ever getting this tattoo? Why are people so un-educated that the Nazis actually took over that symbol from Hindus and it's not only about hate?

ok so in the links below there is this picture of an ear and it has a whole bunch of percings on it.

but the only one im focusing on is the one on the outer side of the ear closest to where the hair is. its basically just where the cartalidge is. i think its called a "rook" peircing or something

I really want to get it but i dont know if it would look good on me or if i could pull it off. (and btw the earring in the picture is really ugly i wont want it to look like that)

anywayyy i would appriciate it if you could tell me a few things.

-if it would look good on me
- how much it hurts
-how much it costs


here are the links

I have my first tattoo when I was 15 and now I want another one. I am 16 and I don't care about what people react to my tattoo. I wonder if you think it's wrong to have tattoo when you are 16?

I'm looking at getting a single small arm band tattoo in a plain black color. I haven't visited a tattoo parlor yet, but I will be soon. I just have simple questions about tattoo safety precautions and care. What type of complications should I be aware of before I get a tattoo...risks, diseases, etc...? How do I care for the tattoo after I get it? How often should I get the tattoo recolored?

If you can think of any additional info, please feel free to add that as well. Thanks!

when someone gets a small tatoo at the spur of the moment is understandable but when you get tatoos all over the body you are disfigured for life what makes people want to get tatoos artistic reasons?if it is then i think it is pretty dumb.

Anyone into suspension?
Theres a huge suspension scene where I live, and I keep hearing about it, and I must admit...I'm intrigued.
I'd love to hear your experiences.


Theres no need to answer this question if you have no idea what I'm talking about.
Thanks

Okay, so I designed my own art and now I'm wondering if knotwork looks better if it is black and white, or full color. I can go either way-- I love well done color tattoos, but I also like the simplistic bare design of black lines.
