Pulsating Tattoos.

Day#23 & #28: The day had come. Friday, TJ, Glen, and Brandon started the basics of their tattoo. While their tattoos were healing to be completed on another day, Krystal and I went in on Wednesday to get our tattoos fully started and completed.
Phase 1: Distress.
Phase 2: Realization.
Phase 3: Pain.
Phase 4: Bliss, haha.
First half.
"Live Life" and uncompleted Filipino flag/clock.



Now it's the ladies turn. I was first be tatted because Krystal was running a little late. Luckily, she came right in time for the beginning of the penetration.

Excruciating pain. Felt like a blade was smoothly grazing my foot. They honestly said the foot was one of the most sensitive places to get a tattoo, but I thought it was part of the hype. It was not part of the hype. All they said was true. Although I have a high-tolerance for pain, the pain was still evident. Luckily, I do take pain relatively quietly, so Mike was pleased with my participation during the tattoo.
What bestfriends are for.
Fakest "I'm-happy-and-this-is-a-breeze-I-can-get-through-this" face.

1 Corinthians 13
Through all the pain, the end result was well worth it.


Now it was Krystal's turn. Her tattoo was twice as big as mine and on her ribs. They said the ribs wouldn't be as bad as the foot because there was more meat. Sadly, through the reality, Krystal was still in a lot of pain. Unlike me, she did not go down quietly. Haha, there were a lot of F-bombs involved as she clenched my hand until it turned blue with nails digging ferociously in my flesh. I'm glad her family and I were there for her.


99.8% pose Krystal was in during this.
It was my turn :)


End result: The light will shine when all else fades.


Round Two, Krystal? you let me know when you're ready for more :)

Hi,

I love your foot tattoo. I was thinking of getting something similar in style, would you be able to tell me the font that was used if you still have it.

Thanks
Dom
