Tattoo blow outs. How can they be prevented? I’ve read there are a lot of factors as to why or how it happens. My MIL got her first tattoo a few weeks ago and almost immediately she bruised but then I seen the blowouts within a few days. Same artist I go to and I have blow outs on my newest tattoo too . Is it something the artist is doing?

Got this knife a few days ago and i dont really like the wave in the blade... do you guys think it can be fixed so it looks straigh once it has healed? Got another tattoo by the same artist that i really love, but this one didn't turn out as nice as the other one.

Shitty tattoo I need help with what to do about it.

Client wanted to cover his old tribal tattoo with something more meaningful to him. Product of 2 sessions, 1 more to go.

🎉🎉 Some time ago..... Not too long ago

Don’t get tattooed when you’re 18.. Want to cover the whole chest with traditional work. Do you think it’s possible without laser sessions?

Okay this is an ugly tattoo and I know it but still like it. I'd like to see it as it was when I got it last April, the lines now have gotten double in size. My question is, could laser treatment partially remove ink from the fish-man and the sentence so it will look better? Or maybe I can to go another artist and ask to add white lines to make the black ones seem smaller. I'm not too crazy about it, just wondering. PS1: It's from the movie Its such a beautiful day. My second favourite movie. PS2: I know the sentences look crooked. It's just the photo.

So last year I went through hell. Literally the worst12 months of my life and I was divorced before 30. Anyway I love daisies as they just seem so resilient , pretty and simple to me. I stim by running my thumb over a certain spot on my hand when anxious, nervous or uncomfortable. So I decided to get a small daisy in that spot to remind myself even when I'm feeling my worst I've got this. This was my first impulse tattoo with no research into how the tattoo would move or heal. Anyway as you can see there are blowouts, the white doesn't hold well and it's not perfect. BUT it's mine. I got through the worst time of my life and came out better, yes alittle rougher and more cautious but better. And this little tattoo reminds me I'm ok and I can make it through each and every day even with its imperfections.

okay people were asking for a healed photo of me standing so here ya go. i am considering just blasting over it. its not center on my thighs at all nor are the swirls straight. this photo was taken from straight on so you can really see how off center it is on my legs. i’ve had it for two years now and have always hated it. fml

im thinking like trad flowers or a sick ass panther to cover this. idfk. any suggestions would be appreciated.

Ive done this Mary Poppins tattoo but my artist probably isn't that good, cause every other tattoo I've gotten from here has its line getting thicker as some months pass by. What can I do to prevent it from happening here? Especially this flower. It's gonna look really ugly 😭😭😭

this was when it was fresh, it’s since healed and a the packing in the letters looks like shit.. aaand it’s very very crooked when i stand.

I really wanted this tattoo of the Siberian ice maiden, unfortunately this was the result
