It's a bit red, but I think butchered is a pretty strong word to use.

Not in my experience with tattoo artists. I've been getting inked for 10 years now. Some of the guys just don't give a sh*t and you're the next quick dollar that walks in the door. Many artists don't take into account that some people scar more easily and they can run the needle too deep. Thats what it looked like happened to you. I was more dogging the artist than anything. Don't feel bad. I've been "butchered" too.

I can't believe the words about to come out of my mouth: mylittledemon is right.

(jk!)

some tattoo artists have a heavier hand than others, and they absolutely just drill you. it's like how different people write with different amounts of pressure on a pencil or pen. not a diss on your tattoo at all.. just an observation. looks like he got you pretty good.. especially around the eye.

i too have been tattooed for 10years ~ maybe her skin just reddends easily like mine~ i have been done by men only (that sounds funny) & haven't been butchered, it's just super red for the 1st few hours, because of the way my skin is~

Yeah I mean, it's all subjective really. Some people think their tattoos look great, and the truth is that 85% of them look like complete ****e. It's sad really because the artists that are out there should be ashamed in their work. I mean if the art looks like ****, you wouldn't want someone going around saying "YEAH! I got this tattoo from so-and-so..." especially if it looks bad.

My wife's niece just got her first tattoo and it's heinous. I mean, it's puffy because the needle went to deep and the skin has scarred. The lines are awful, and the color didn't go well with her skin tone. I thought it looked like a child took a crayon to her skin. (if crayon would stick to your skin)...Of course Ashley asked my opinion, being that I'm covered with them, and I couldn't say anything. My face said it all really. I just kind of cringed.

I think Hell froze over for about 30 seconds. Well, maybe just a cool breeze went thru.

My skin was just red for a couple hours. After that it was fine. Its still a little scabby.
