I went into the tattoo shop today to get the shading and colour done on my head tatts... and I swear today made up for the last two weeks of me being all smug the outline didn't hurt.
HOLY SHIT, this was NOT a fun experience. The first side was admittedly my more painful side, we knew that going in, and I chose to do that first. But because my body went through too much painful discomfort for too long, by the time we got the green leaves of the dandelions filled in after shading on the other side, my body was like, "I will throw up your entire soul right now if you don't DESIST."
So I have one finished tattoo, and one tattoo that still needs yellow. I am not ashamed nor saddened to say that it hurt too much. I tapped out because I'm listening to my body and not trying to look cool. I'm still a badass though.
My tattooer told me "I would do head tattoos ALL DAY FOREVER if they all sat as well as you."
