Tattoos

[flyingmonkeypoop]

I just got my first tattoo on Tuesday and I think I am hooked. I got my last name on my upper right arm so it can be covered by a t-shirt if needed. It was only $20, its about 1/2" tall by 3" long. It took about 5 minutes from start to finish and it didnt hurt much. I was expecting pain but it felt like a thorn scratch at first and a little burn afterwards. I was also expecting my muscle to hurt afterwards but it didnt.
I am already planning my next one, I want a rooster. I was thinking like a 1950's style cartoon looking one at first but now I am thinking something more like a cool looking game or jungle fowl. I want one with a single comb, BBR coloring, and an upright tail. It has to be no bigger than 2x2 so I can get it for $20. So now I am trying to find a good picture for one.

What does everyone else have? Any cool chicken tattoos?

Here is a link to the pics on my facebook. http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/album.php?aid=133417&id=745305394&ref=nf

Are you getting chicken tatoo because you can't have live chickens? lol
Or, did you get to get some now?

Lol, I am getting one because chickens are amazing. I still cant have live chickens yet... but someday, lol.

During the summer in Indiana or the winters if we're in Florida, I shave my head bald as a billiard ball. I first shaved head after two consecutive haircuts, one bad one one day and a helpless one the second day that couldn't correct the previous day's disaster. I looked at my handsome countenance in the mirror and decided that a tatoo of a honeybee top and front of my right ear would look neat, and it does.

I don't have a chicken tattoo but I always thought the roo in my avatar would make a good tattoo cause he's such a pretty boy

At least I think so!

I also shave my head, every day or every other day. I have been since about February and I dont know if I will ever grow hair back.

Don't choose the size of the tattoo because of cost. It will be there forever. If, in your heart, you would be happy with a bigger one, save up a little and get the bigger one. www.tattoojohnny.com has some good ones on it.

i totally agree. id never go just by the size and say i only want to pay a set amount. id never make my sea horses smaller or my fairy or any other one. i love them all. and when you do smaller you don't get a great quality of detail.

eventually want to get wings on my back.. but price is holding me back
