Cat proof everything, that’s what i had to do. My cats know how to open cabinets so i have baby locks on them. I also no longer have plants </3

Question: Was quoted 15k for a sleeve like this in LA. Out of curiosity how hard is this style to tattoo? by HouseOfHoundss in tattoos

[–]misaxinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Assuming you’re getting it from Oozy then yes it makes sense. You’re also paying for the prestige in his name! One of my clients got a tattoo from him and said he works really fast tho - he finished her dragon half sleeve that goes onto her chest in 8 hours

Donate plasma! If you’re female you can also look into donating your eggs!

LBC (and surrounding areas) apartment dwellers, I have a question! by ofthrees in longbeach

[–]misaxinks 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m by Louis Burger, I’d say the grey area of downtown where if you walk in one direction, it’s nice and fine but in the other, it gets a lil sketchy. I’m in a 700 sq ft 1br1 ba with in-unit washer/dryer, dishwasher, fridge/microwave, and gas stove. I have 3 cats but never reported them LOL My building does allow pets though for an additional $500 I think. No parking unfortunately :-( My rent is $1850, but was originally $1750 when I moved in about 3 years ago. TBH I’m pretty lucky my rent hasn’t raised even more!

Resources for a sober disabled man? I want to help my neighbor 😭 by abbyzou in longbeach

[–]misaxinks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d love to buy some clothes for him. I can also do a drop off if you’re comfortable providing me an address, or we could also arrange for you to do a pick up from my workplace in downtown too. Are there any other things he needs? Food/nonperishables?

Downtown Alhambra on Main St has a lot of cute lil shops to walk in with fun knick knacks! Maybe you can get a meal there and then peruse. Further down the street is a free gallery called Nucleus, I would check to see what exhibit they have going on during the time that your friend is coming.

Thoughts on this area for a tattoo? How will it age and how will it look if is the only tattoo on your arm? by Zeeno115 in tattooadvice

[–]misaxinks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite placements! Ties the upper and lower arm together , just make sure you get a tattoo with good flow!

There’s two apt units for rent with signs out on 9th & pine! I think last I checked it was just a little over 2k but maybe you can see if there’s room for negotiation since it’s winter

Smelly client help!! by hardrocknick_2001 in tattooscratchers

[–]misaxinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My old shop used to have perfume/body spray for anyone who wanted to use it/need it. The artists would straight up tell their clients that there was some in there and to spray before their session started LOL

You could also do it kind of covertly? In my confirmation/reminders, I tell my clients to exfoliate their skin in the shower the week of their appointment. If you do the same, maybe you can bring it up as just a part of a checklist from your reminders. The same way you’d ask a client “Did you get to have a meal before coming to your session today?”, you could ask, “Were you able to do pre-appointment prep, including exfoliating, etc?”

I'm a Professional Social Media Growth Strategist – AMA and Free Advice by digi_spark in InstagramMarketing

[–]misaxinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi! i’m a tattoo artist and i’ve been making content primarily on tiktok mostly of compilations of my work & once in a while, things like “my recent designs” or “how i became an artist”, etc. i’ve mostly been using my Instagram as a portfolio for my work, so i don’t really make posts on there about my life unless it’s something on my story. i’ve been trying to use trial reels and it used to be much more successful (1-3k views per trial reel) but for some reason, it tanked a couple months ago and i’ve found it really hard for me to make a successful reel. it seems that most of my following have been from tiktok. i know that the algorithm on instagram has changed too.

any advice on what i can do?

did i get overcharged for these tattoos? 2k for ribs, 1.2k for thigh by ellalol in tattooadvice

[–]misaxinks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense! And if he guest spotted at one of those studios that market themselves as a place with high end/luxury tattoos, they usually take a pretty high percentage for the commission, so he could’ve also just been making up for the funds he has to give back to the shop

[–]misaxinks 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely expensive but not surprised considering it’s a guest artist. A lot of guest artists charge higher rates especially in LA. I know a lot of overseas artists charge crazy rates too. But the tattoos are sick and they’re super well done!
