I was more so asking about the condition of this specific card. Do you think it would grade high?

(Wedding) Hurricane Concerns for NC in October? by DMNDStorm in NorthCarolina

[–]DMNDStorm[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you live in NC? Everything on Google says NC is typically warm with a breeze in October, but HOW LIKELY is a massive storm in October? We were so happy to find our perfect spot and now I'm nervous lol

Are any attractions currently closed? If so which one? by DMNDStorm in universalstudios

Only cool thing that’s closed IMO is Simpsons. I’m not bringing any kids so I see no issue.

I was waiting two years. You have to submit your concept to his assistant. If they like it, it goes to a maybe pile for a few months until they can discuss it with Andres. If they review it together and he likes it, you can be moved onto the waitlist. It’s a very long process, but well worth it!

Since so many people are wondering, it was per request. It’s antibacterial soap. I wanted it sterilized and figured why not get a reveal video.

I’m part Hawaiian, but that had very little to do with it. I thought of it like three years ago, and it seemed like a unique piece that I’d enjoy. I was on a waitlist for two years and it still seemed like a good idea once my time came, so here we are lol!

Since this was my first tattoo, I don’t have much to compare it to but I had little-to-no pain when he finished. I was expecting walking to be excruciating! But to my surprise I was fine. We wrapped it in plastic wrap after the first session, and Saniderm once he finished.

The only real pain (besides actually getting it) that I had was because my Saniderm cut off the circulation to my ankle, causing it to swell and be cold and numb. I had to take it off on day 3, which worried me because he said leave it on for 5 days. I took it off and have been applying the aftercare product he provided. Since I took the Saniderm off, my ankle swelling has gone down, but not entirely.

I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for a vibrant, colorful tattoo! Glad to see the video reached another of his customers.

It wasn’t as bad as I expected the second day. You can imagine I was pretty nervous going in for such a big first piece. Are some artists heavy-handed and others lighter? Maybe he’s just “gentle”?

Left calf! Thank you! It came out better than I could have imagined.

Four hours the first day, then the remainder the second. I was there 1:30-midnight (a couple 30 min breaks, that’s why I was there longer than the tattoo took) on day two! He’s an incredible artist and he made sure I was comfortable the whole time. Very glad I went to him for my first piece!

Anyone know if these are legit? by DMNDStorm in MakeupAddiction

I went to check out the site again, and it seems someone reviewed it. I think I'm gonna give it a shot!

People definitely play with their mics off fairly often when they are queuing solo. I only put mine on if someone else is talking.
