NEW INK!!!

Really I should have posted this weeks ago. When I was down south me and the Fiancé decided to go and get new tattoos. Fiancé's sister V had been to a local place near a few times so she said we could go there with her.

Turned out fiancé's cousins partner M also a new tattoo so his cousin O said he would drive us all. The place we went Camberly Tattoo is a walk in only shop so we went for it opening. Fiancé and me knew what we wanted M and V were a little less sure, in the end the 4 of us all came out with new ink hehe O didnt but then hes not a fan. Safe to say it was an odd family day out, but fun.

Originally I wanted the design I got on my ribs but the lad pointed out that with it being round and having straight lines if I moved at all it would look awful. So I swapped to having it on my ankle opposite my cat. I can still cover it up if anyone says anything with either dark tights or trousers.

Fiancé went in first as he wanted his arm piece all re-done, in the end it took an hour and a half but it looks awesome.

Before - looks a lot darker in this pic it was actually a bit patchy

NEW INK! you can see its a lot more complete and coloured in much better. 

Here is my new mandala inspired ink!
I love my new mandala inspired tattoo. Took the guy barely any time at all. The middle is interlocking S's for me and the fiancé. 

This was us post tattooing, Fiancé looks like he was mauled by an animal, V went to give blood I got  sprained ankle and M well I'll let you decide on that one. 
So I finally got my new ink and I am thrilled. The only bad part was that we bought bepanthen cream to help with healing and it would seem that I am allergic because my ankle swelled up and hurt like hell. I had to keep cooling it down with cold water, in the end I washed all the cream off and just used a unscented lotion till I got home and could use some lavender oil. It was quite red for ages and took ages to heal which was a bit worrying as all my other ones healed much faster  but now its all fine.

When I looked it up it turns out allergies to bepanthen are quite common after tattoos so I would advise any reader to stick to either savlon or good old lavender oil.

I still want more tattoos but will have to save up big time for my back piece and any others ... well I think I am running out of coverable places to have them so they woul involve a bit of logistics.
