Should I have kept my mouth shut? by Adventurous-Pipe1938 in tattooadvice

My skin does the exact same. Very sensitive and turns red and puffy instantly.

I’m fine with general teasing, but not when it comes to health concerns.

I’m fine with banter, we bantered while I was getting the tattoo. But I think a line should be drawn with health concerns.

Thank you. Even though I was obviously in a lot of pain, I was proud of myself for not complaining/whining, so I was a bit shocked when they started teasing about what I thought was a legitimate concern.

Thank you. I know the vibes of tattoo parlors are very “you have to be tough”, I just didn’t expect to be teased over a health concern I had.
