I've been thinking of getting the same tattoo my granfather had. its a full are black dragon tattoo with the head on the back of the hand and the tail up on the shoulder, and its body coils around the arm itself.

Alot of good advice...I also ask to see copies of their spore testing results. It gives you an idea how clean the autoclave is...also, make sure they use new needles, cover the tattoo gun with a barrier - usually they use a plastic baggie of sorts on the handle and first few inches of the cord, and dont touch your skin with a glove that has touched ANYTHING else (ink bottles, paper towels, tape etc). Any surface has the potential to cross contaminate.

This can work to my advantage! I can get a pretty little rosebud and vine on my breast, then every year add another rosebud below it, until I am 80 years old and am wearing a lovely trellis garden.

Or, alternatively, I can have a tattoo of the world globe on my boob, then slowly watch the US have continental drift down into the Southern Hemisphere.

One tattoo is too many, and two tattoos aren't enough.
