Giving urself a tattoo? -
March 29th 2009, 09:09 PM
Ok Mikes brother has givin himself several tattoos, hes never explained to me how to do it cuz he thinks id do it as a form of SH. But i found a basic way to do it [...] and then the ink came out [...] and everything after a while(thank god, it was my ex's initials!) so it looked like scarification--i attacked it with mederma!
What i'm wanting to know is how to get it to seal in the ink, without scabbing over? Someone told me vaseline but then i was told it takes longer to heal that way....any suggestions?
~~Jessica and Michael~~
We started dating 11/22/08
He told me he loved me on his 8th birthday
And i never believed he still would
After all that time....
until the day that changed my life

Why not just go to an actual tattoo place? Not only will they do it better than you could do it they will also do it more cleanly and less painfully. Many tattoo places will accept personally designed tattoos as well so no need to worry about that.

Id go to a tattoo place but my mom wont let me get it done that way because of the chances of unsanitary needles.
And then I would have mikes brother do it but 1) I want it on my hip but i wouldnt want chris messing near my special places(sounds sooo immature i know) and 2) hes in florida now

First off, giving yourself a tattoo is extremely dangerous, and you can give yourself all sorts of infections and then there's the possibility of ink poisoning.
I don't think anyone can (or should) give you this advice.
You'd get a better job going somewhere professional and be much safer.
I'm going to close this as I don't think this kind of advice is really appropriate.
If you disagree don't hesitate to PM me and I'll reconsider.
