hi!! feel free to answer this privately or not at all but i saw your tattoos on your calves and they look GORGEOUS. i just wanted to know (only if you’re comfortable w it) if you tattooed yourself (impressive) or got them tattooed bc i have a singular tattoo that kinda looks shitty and im realizing its bc i went to an artist who didn’t do non-white skin?? (and also had her dog in the studio and around people as they were being tattooed or pierced which should’ve been a red flag i think) and i just wanted to find better tattoo artists yk. feel free not to answer or to delete if you’re uncomfy!! love your art it makes me want to practice more 🫶🏾

omg hi!! not uncomfortable at all this is such a sweet ask :) i normally would reply privately but might be good reference for me to reply publicly. if you have specific questions tho please please feel free to shoot me a message again, happy to continue the convo!

for the tats i got i DID go to a friend of mine! he's been apprenticing at a local shop for a little over a year now and i went to him bc 1. hes a friend and 2. i know hes comfortable with doing designs that weren't done by him. he was absolutely down to keep to the original design as much as possible and the only adjustments made were very subtle and done with the express purpose of making sure the final tattoos not only looked good but would age really well since its such a permanent modification to your body haha

i wish i had recommendations on how to find someone who worked on non-white skin; i have very tan, very brown skin but i think i get off easy since i also make the habit of only choosing black/grey tattoos and if im going to have a color its always a red ink. i will say i DO find it important to have a good rapport with an artist before i book with them, so if you're on instagram and looking at portfolios of artists near you, dont be shy to just reach out to them and ask about the tattoo/their hourly rates/how they do bookings etc. its a business for them but good tattoo artists def know that this permanent and would rather you speak up or ghost them after an inquiry than have a bad session with them (and by ghosting i mean i dont follow up to book after a clearly finished conversation)

i THINK thats all but srsly dont be shy to send me another message i looooove talking abt my tats hehe

[xojoules]

altho that being said would u guys want me to come up with designs for tattoos and offer them for use w tattoo tickets? i know thats a thing a bunch of artists do

[xojoules]

heyyyy i just wanna put it out there that while im flattered people love these and want them as tattoos for themselves they both have very personal connotations so please dont bring these to ur tattoo artists for inspo lol

ignore my bruised up ankles i was line dancing last night. anyway
