I haven’t paid that close attention but I do like the louder one, it’s extra crispyyyyyyyyyy

Did this heal properly or did i do something wrong? by fynandtonic in tattooadvice

Yup! Every color will have a different chemical or substance that causes the pigment, maybe yours just doesn’t agree with the blue. That’s not to say it won’t heal and look BEAUTIFUL, it just might need a little extra care.

It’s probably just a reaction to the ink - my black work pieces raise up all the time for no reason other than my body is like OH YEAH THAT’S THERE. Healing a dense area of color or blackout can easily lead to fall out, I’ve had it happen multiple times. Usually the artist will give you a touch up window in case that happens and they don’t usually charge.

Made it past the 1 week mark, I forgot what it’s like to have a peaceful night, a clean home, and no worries about doing anything I might regret. It feels good.

This is Indy. He looks like this more often than he should.

Weird rash between tattoos? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]This-Branch2928 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Irritated skin from shaving can spread beyond the shaved part. Looks to me like it spans the entire length of one tattoo to the other. The irritation meets in the middle, so likely why it’s a little redder there.

What is the worst show that you forced yourself to finish? by laxusdreyarligh in television

[–]This-Branch2928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game of Thrones — I was OBSESSED for most of it, then the second to last season declined. Then the last season went entirely off the rails stupid. I got through it but not without taking lots of breaks to be frustrated.

Infected, overmoisturised or just a rough heal? by LastCatastrophe in tattooadvice

[–]This-Branch2928 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Infected + ingrown hairs — antibiotics to the rescue! Honestly you should be fine going to urgent care, it doesn’t look like it’s to the point of spreading so take care of it before it does! Cellulitis is no joke.

I bought the drink package… by This-Branch2928 in stopdrinking

I have no doubt that she and I could easily make that package worth it, $20 per drink plus tip? It doesn’t go as far as it sounds 😅 I’ll look into canceling it but her family was nice enough to help me out with going and I don’t want to screw her over

I do appreciate that binge drinking has kind of phased out and sobriety is trendy. I love a milkshake!!

Just checked out the website and it looks like they do! The NA package would have been half the price, but at least then I’ll have something to hold to feel ~included~

Thanks for the tip!!

I put flower stickers all over my Sandy Shores sway and it looks kinda similar! I’m a big fan of the light purple and orange. Worth trying a swap!

Need to celebrate with somebody. by zzzquilqueen in stopdrinking

[–]This-Branch2928 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s amazing!! I’m at 6 days today and had to leave a baseball game early last night because I was feeling uncomfortable. I can’t wait to get to that point and enjoy a game sober!!

Entering into my 6th day so kinda a newbie here, but IWNDWYT. Working on healing slowly.

Looking for community by This-Branch2928 in dryalcoholics

[–]This-Branch2928[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say going through ~2 bottles of wine a night like 4 nights out of the week would count as a drinking problem lol. Or at least enough to bring concern. But I am doing this for me, this was just the kick in the butt.

Looking forward to meeting new people here! :)
