i have been in many, many tattoo parlors and have never actually seen one with a woman working in it, EVER. i thought this only existed on miami ink.

elmo argonaut, Friday, 20 April 2007 20:16 (eighteen years ago)

No Neosporin, no Vaseline, no A&D. Actually, Vaseline while they're doing it and as a coating when you leave, probably. After that, most places nowadays tend to recommend washing with carefully with fragrance and dye-free soap, and after a couple days moisturizing with Lubriderm or other light, fragrance-free lotions.

joygoat, Friday, 20 April 2007 20:39 (eighteen years ago)

I've always used A-D, I didn't know that was wrong.

I see shit like that and think it's just the dumbest fucking thing ever.

I respect y'alls with tats, but i just don't get it.

Pleasant Plains, Tuesday, 23 September 2008 15:49 (seventeen years ago)

How fun! I don't mind the art, but the composition seems off -- I wonder if she realized the machine was going to be quite so high? I like chest pieces to keep clear of the hollow of the neck. The subject matter is making me smile, though.

yeah, I got that it was "rare" but didn't want to point it out either way so as not to be accused of not getting the joke etc etc people can be so cold

I have a magnetic one, I prefer chucking pins at it from an angle and watching them SCHOOOP into place as if by magic.
