On getting a tattoo (Thread 2)

[ssirkxix]

I'd like to get one too kaso gusto ko tuloy yung nursing course ko

[maude]

ahh good. reasonably priced naman pala sa 55tinta. mga around 3-4 inches din yung design nung gusto kong tat. sis, lubusin ko na yung questions ko ah. hindi ba masakit magpa-tatt sa batok? i noticed kasi na sa batok area yung tat mo, and it's the same area i want for my own tattoo. and mataas ba threshold mo for pain? ako kasi aminado ako na mababa threshold ko for pain, pero gusto ko lang talaga magpa-tat. TIA ulit sa reply! 

Personally, di ako masyadong nasaktan sis. In regards to my pain threshold, I can't say na mataas. Kasi umiiyak ako pag masakit ipin ko. Tapos when in comes to plucking my eyebrows, it's a no-no for me. I would rather shave kasi I find it masakit. Hehe. Pero, advantage ko lang is wala akong fear of needles kaya siguro medyo napadali din sakin to tolerate the pain while being inked.

isa pang iniisip ko, baka hindi ko matolerate yung pain. masayang lang, kase baka hindi matapos kapag nagiiyak at nagsisigaw na ako sa sakit..

[pooka08]

this question sounds stupid lol but i'll ask anyway: medyo tabachingching ako these days but i'm trying to lose weight. thing is, i want to get a tattoo NOW, before i lose interest again. would that be ok or papangit yung tattoo 'pag pumayat na ako (naks, confident)? nyaha iniimagine ko kasi na magsi-shrink skin ko eh lol.

TIA!

^Tattoos are ink inside your skin so if your skin moves, so will the ink. Mag-aadjust siya pero hindi naman sobra yung weight loss so okay lang yan

From about.com:
Will weight gain or loss affect my tattoo?
Any tattoo can be affected by changes in size of the body, but the good news is that it's usually not that noticeable. Tattoos can be very forgiving, and if the weight gain or loss occurs slowly enough, this gives your tattoo time to "adjust". Imagine a balloon with a logo on it - I'm sure you've seen them. The logo appears essentially the same when the balloon is full as it is when it's deflated, with maybe a slight difference in depth of color. Your skin will usually not undergo as much size change as a balloon, so the changes in your tattoo should be even less visible. Your skin is very elastic and stretches and contracts without much incidence, in most cases. Stomach tattoos and pregnancy are possibly one of the exceptions, which will be discussed next.

i'll answer this na lang if u dont mind. depende kung gaano kalaki yung tattoo, if 2x2 45mins-1hr lang. no need to take meds unless super low tolerance mo sa needles. if, take a pain killer nalang 30mins before. depende din kasi kung san part mo papagawa.

[mooncake and leaves]

pooka08: thanks. yehey! ipa-finalize ko na lang yung design then i'm set

[pooka08]
