My Second Tattoo

2 months and 12 days after I got my self officially inked with a butterfly and initials, I got my second tattoo today. It’s really true when they say once you get one, you’ll want another one, and another and another… I actually said I was going to wait 6 months but I couldn’t wait any longer. Especially since my husband had an old tattoo covered with a new one and got his old tattoos redone (colored) these past weeks. The tattoo artist did so well on husband’s tattoos that I got very jealous . On Tuesday night, he scheduled an appointment for me to do it today at noon. I wanted a “D” in script font just like the “D” in my first tattoo, and a pink flower too. I have been D-Flowered .

There you go, a D in 3D colors of blue and a pink hibiscus. And that ain’t a small D with hibiscus. Hubs’ hand (in a slight angle) could barely cover the whole thing. Compare to my butterfly tattoo from a different tattoo place, this one didn’t hurt much at all. I had to cover my face the whole time I got the first tattoo and barely said anything to the tattoo artist but not with this second one. Well I held on to my purse and covered my face with it when he did the outline and I think about 3 people who works at the place asked,  “Are you ok Sweetie?” but that’s about it. My tattoo artist Braeden from Sacred Art who is just the coolest ever and had become good friends with the Hubs was really understanding. After the initial outline I was just taking the drilling like a pro. Braeden told Hubs who came back after getting an ice cream from Coldstone with the little girl that the Mozart music made me feel better, hehe. We were listening to both Metal and classical music. It was awesome. I was talking and smiling and was telling them that it was actually tickling me . And it was. I happen to be ticklish in that area which reminded me the first time the tattoo gun (drill, whatever) touched my skin. Good thing I was able to control myself from moving or that would have been a disaster.

Everything turned out beautiful. I ♥ it. On the way home, Hubs asked if I’m getting the “J” done sometime which I never really thought about until he mentioned it. I told him tonight that I will. It would actually look really nice right next to the D and the hibiscus. I have to go back there in a month to get my butterfly tattoo fixed coz there’s a bit of scarring in one of the wings and some of the outline so I might ask him to see if he could do the “J”  then.
