a real tattoo for girly girls, and hair stylists,
I have been working on my sleeve for a while and decided it was time to finish up what i could! so i drew the rose/scissors which is my dedication to my cosmetology passion, the hello kitty bow and pearls, and wrote love on my fingers, with a diamond for the V which is dedicated to my husband and works when i dont have my wedding ring on hehe... hope you guys like it!

"if you are not a professional, or apprentice, tattoo artist, do not attempt to tattoo yourself, there are lots of skills and important facts about blood, skin, and the different kinds of damages you can cause to yourself if you do not tattoo yourself properly, as well as specific testing which is required in certain states"

i was a tattoo apprentice at a shop so i learned how to do it professionally, i def wouldn't recommend just anyone doing it for sure, but one of the things they told us is the best place to practice was on ourselves, so i figured hey why not! lol,, its fairly easy to get an apprenticeship,. i just called a bunch of shops asked them if they were looking, and showed them my portfolio. pretty easy breezy, and surprisingly i didn't bleed much with this tattoo,

oh my god! is this really a real tattoo??? i mean is it for ever on your hand?
and are you actually allowed to do that on your own? isn t it dangerous?
sorry for all these stupid questions, but i m a little bit shocked, that you can do something like this, i mean it hurts and there s blood and so on :/
but it still looks good Happy
