Today, I was getting my first tattoo done. My parents told me it was a bad idea. My friends' parents told me it was a bad idea. I told them that people get tattoos done all the time and nothing goes wrong. 50 min into the tattoo on my back, the artist says "Oh shit, shit, shit. We can fix this." FML
thats_not_good tells us more.
The tattoo is on my shoulder blade, and it's a Celtic knot that I drew up myself. The artist was filling in the shading in the knot after finishing the outline when he started filling in an area on the wrong side of the line. He ended up fixing it so the design came out symmetrical, and it looks really good. No regrets and no worries.

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Yeah, bad idea... sounds like if you try it again you should do a little research to figure out the best tattoo parlor in your area...

I don't see why everyone is saying YDI. This seems like it was just a fluke. Nothing wrong with getting tats!

When you SAY people do something "all the time and nothing goes wrong," it's going to go wrong when you do it. That's just a law of nature. Nothing goes wrong with tattoos? Look up CHITONW.

that's why i found the best tattoo parlor in the city... the extra $30 was well-worth having a good tattoo/not having hepatitis. but fyl if you had heard that it WAS a good place.
