yes it is!!!!

i generally take 2 weeks to even start peeling (weird skin)

but with this stuff im flaking in 3 to 4 days

also remember when you apply aquaphor or A&D barely put nay on there you want just enough to hydrate it but not trap any infection in it

I guess its supposed to be all flaky now? The yellow is really starting to pop out now to, the first 2 days the yellow wasnt as bright since it had minor blood spots in it, Now the color is so vivid

Oh, lol! Sorry, I'm stupid.. I've never had red in any tats so I don't know.. LOL! It looks good though!

I hope so, I regret never showing it more when she was here, human nature to take the ones you love for granted and have regret once they are gone i guess

I don't know. Thats even too girly for me. Looks cartoonish and cheerful. Almost like Care bearish.

Just putting it out there.

Well unfortunately most statements are generalizations.

I don't have time to take surveys and comparisons.

Its not my coloring book tattoo. So what does it matter?

No, not meant to be negative, even though it came across that way.

Just think a more "portrait" type tattoo would have been appropriate.

i would of also done a portrait in these circumstances

but you also have to remember he prob sat for 45min for the one he just got

i full size portrait would of taken severall hours and possibly more then one sitting depending on skin quality

also the fact that alot of people dont like tatoos

they think they hurt :gay:

and no one wants an unfinished peice on there arm thats suposed to symbolize something magical

Well you see, Leisa LOVED that type of flower, and the heart is for me and her... So honestly I wasnt to worried about it looking girly or whatever you want to call it, because anyone who understands loosing the very love of your life would not think that, Its 2 things that she loved, and I put them together to honor her and what she meant to me. So you know.... I am honored to wear this on my arm, because it symbolizes all I have left of the most amazing woman and person I have ever know and will be blessed to know... and all I have left is a memory and this is how I choose to honor it.
