My New Tattoo

On Thursday of last week, I got a new tattoo. This is a beautiful one to m and it means so much to me, just as my other two do. It is in the middle of the top of my back. It is my first colored tattoo and it is a balancing scale. Above the scale, in cursive, it says "An Attempt to Tip the Scales," which is a lyric that means a lot to me. I don't like to tell about the meanings behind my tattoos, and I don't like when people tell me theirs. I like tattoos to be for me. They're on my body and they are personal to me. Everyone can see them and I will tell what they mean in general, but I won't tell why I have them specifically or what they mean to me. I love my new tattoo, though. It is a black, burnt orange, and a dark brown. The colors came out perfectly and this Vitamin E cream for the tattoo works wonders, too. I am so happy with it, I want another one now!

  1. i'm in the middle of designing a new tattoo for my shoulder blade, and i was thinking about putting color into it. my first one didn't hurt bad at all, but i hear color hurts a lot more. as soon as i have some extra cash, i'm getting my new one!

  2. Do it! Tattoos are so addicting, it's crazy. But they're the best. And no, color does not hurt too badly. The linework is always the most painful.
