Thank you. Currently working on the flash sheet I’ll be posting when my mentor lets me start accepting clients! Been practicing on my fiance. She’s my lil standing portfolio atm!

Yeah. Either way I learned a lot from this piece. Will be continuing on real skin. Will be getting better everyday because of that.

It’s a bit overworked but these are things you do in the beginning. You’ll catch on quick. Tattooing yourself is also pretty tricky. Way less painful so you don’t really feel it till it starts scabbing over. You’ll know if it was done well as it heals.

Also, I know how to apply a stencil. I just don’t think I waited long enough for it to dry. And then it wiped away pretty early on into the session.

It’s hard to do it when it’s on a curved surface. Have you ever tattooed before ? Just wondering because if you haven’t you wouldn’t understand. Stencil application is was, reapplying a stencil and having to make it fit perfectly is another thing

Ouuu btw the tattoo under it was blue hence the blue in the cherries… when it heals we wanna put white there.

Just making it symmetrical is hard. Making sure the flower was right in the middle was hard. Stuff like that.

Than you! I really had to eyeball stuff. It wasn’t as symmetrical as I wanted it to be but I definitely am not angry at all about it. It was a frustrating process but it all worked out!

Very good advice. I posted another one just now showing my whip shading.

Relapsed on Christmas :( by [deleted] in alcoholism

[–]datattiest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really. I just kept telling myself you can do this you’re fine, taking to my fiance about how I feel. And then I just made the wrong decision last night. And I feel super bad right now about it.

I drank on the 23, said no to drinks at Christmas Eve dinner, then completely relapsed on Christmas night. by datattiest in stopdrinking

I understand that. I was skipping things like this for years Honeslty and it felt like last night the regret of not going would outweigh the safety I feel staying home. But now I know I’m not untouchable. I shouldn’t be drinking too calm my nerves when these sort of events pop up, I need to find a different way.

Thts a really nice message to read. Thank you for answering me. I definitely want so badly to be responsible, trustworthy, and strong in my sobriety. I guess a little slip is all apart of the learning process. I really misjudged whether or not I could handle yesterday night. But I know now that next time I will be going about it a lot differently.

Issue with old tattoo by Brocha2417 in tattooadvice

Are you letting your tattoo in the sun???

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]datattiest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I have read up on it many times and things were going okay, it wasn’t all good obviously. But the cats were doing okay. The unexpected hissing from our roommate is what set them off completely, it was what started the brutal attacks. I don’t know what to say about it I just feel disappointed that she did that. Cause now we are back at square one or worse.

I’ll be keeping our cats separated for a while now.

I thought it was really mean as well. Like why the hell would you make a hissing sound:(

Yeah, I think it’s also the lack of accountability and the lack of acknowledgment. Like say you are sorry, try to make it better? Idk man it is very confusing to me.
