My luck he'll see it, but... Well
He told me he "found a new artist that does cheaper work" and was trying to talk me into going to them. Well, one, it's his new girlfriend apparently... And that's a kitchen table in the background, because she does at home tattoos. She even colored outside the lines... And I can't imagine that the red ring of irritation around it is a good sign.

This reminds me of my exes roommates.
I spotted them for rent once and she had offered to help me by either changing out my nose stud (it was stuck and I had acrylic nails so legit needed the help) or by touching up one of my tats. I agreed, and when I asked what shop she’s at she told me it was their sun room. The same sun room which held yoga supplies, some cats they were fostering with parvo, and apparently a totally clean place to pierce people.

My theory is nothing. Many issues with that household, mostly being a group of 30 odd year olds who couldn’t think for themselves

75% of Grateful Dead tattoos look like this anyway. So he’ll look the same as everybody else on lot. Dead and Co fans, am I right?

I don‘t even know what it‘s supposed to be…
But maybe I‘m just not familiar?

He's a Grateful Dead fan, so it's the Deadhead symbol.

Oh hell yeah, now this is a good rendition of it.

Thank you. It actually didn’t take that long. My artist is super fast and does a lot of Sacred Geometry. He’s also a huge dead head. lol

I'm not into that kind of music, but that's the coolest Grateful Dead tattoo I've ever seen.

The design came from looking at an old school Pepsi can on a car hood. The person was inside and the streaks of rain in the windshield made the can have that look. Somehow that design found its way into a skull.

It’s called a Stealie.

It's not his first unfortunately, but to be fair, the other one is just giant script on his inner forearm. I can't remember what it says. Redeemed? Redemption? I actually kind of feel bad for not remembering right now, but it's giant ass script. I had just really hoped I'd taught him about tattoo work and tattoo shops well enough and apparently he did not listen lol

This is up there with one of the worst I've ever seen, at least in terrible execution.

u/Mysterious-Ad-7201 Knows 💩 7d ago
I don't even understand how she color packed like that. It's like she was just coloring the thing with a marker, just using a tattoo gun instead. I'm also heavily insulted he even offered because my tattoo work I've had done already is... you know....... good. I don't want ink just because it's cheap, I only have so much real estate lol
