Bad Tattoos

I got my first tattoo when I was 17, (big mistake) It was an ugly tramp stamp. I've always admired the beauty tattoos and the individuality of them. I always wanted more tattoos but because my first experience was so horrendous I was scared. I've had the same tattoo ideas in my head since then but I was too nervous to get them done. So last year I met a lady who said she had been tattooing for 10 years and I gained the courage to try it again and get some tattoos by her (big mistake). It took me awhile to realize what I wanted wasn't coming out in the tattoos and there is a difference between a tattooist and a tattoo artist. I was really upset with the work I had and thought it would never get fixed. I then met a really good artist and it took her 12 months to fix my tattoos to get them how I envisioned them. Now I am really proud and happy with them, I learned allot about what good work and bad work looks like. I am very passionate about my tattoos, they are very meaningful and spiritual and I have no regrets. I know that some people don't like tattoos but I do so please no 'hater' comments. Thank you so much!

They are looking so much better now, my new artist is doing amazing work, its taking time but its worth it. :)

Why would you keep getting crappy tattoos after the first one? And unless you know the tattoo artist skills never never let them free hand a design. Its all your fault for allowing them to keep tattooing you instead of stopping and going to a better artist. The final tattoo still looks like crap.

The stencil looked great of your compassion one..too bad he couldn't come through on what you envisioned...I understand your frustrations because you see the stencil and say wow that looks great, but you never know how the artist will translate it when actually tattooing...you took a gamble, but they are looking better..props to you!!

It still looks horrible I don't think you have yet to find the right artist! I come from a long line of tattoo artists and have over 30 pieces, all of which I wad proud of from day 1, why did you keep going back?

FYI, the owl is the harbinger of death. To have that inked on you is tempting fate.

ALWAYS look at a portfolio of the tattoo artists previous work you can kinda get a feel for what their work looks like and their skill level.

Always do your research on the artist first!
