khia Posted October 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 :sm.jpg: Hey guys thank you for the comments, sunshine bear - its not to bad a pain that is easily forgot after its healed, its the outline that hurts more, why not go for something very small and see how you feel?D.Ash - yes there is something about the self expression, just read your thread yeah i missed that one... i know there is someone on here also with big angel wings and there are so nice!!!I use prep h gel to heal mine it takes say 2 days not scabbing or loss of colour.Hey full blown - it took ages to upload them, it kept coming up with an error so i tried a different way lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Ash Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Hey Fellow Body Art Fans!!!!! Well, I promised to get a pic up today - and I managed it!!! Wooohoooo!!!! That's one goal down for the day! Thanx for the interest - http://www.mentalhealth-world.org.uk/forum...&user=13902As for the meaning behind it? Well, bit obvious that, eh? Needless to say, I got it a few weeks after my realisation, acceptance and resolution to beat my BPD diagnosis... Representing a new period of lucidity, understanding and enlightenment. And it's there for good! So no way I'm forgetting the above!!!! And thanx for the tip, Khia - I'll be sure to try the prep H on my next one!!!!Enjoy! -Dx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khia Posted October 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 Ouch little D, but the coolest place to have one, you want to first decide what style, old skool, Tribal, Fantasy,or symbol, how big do you want it??I have found that twweaking a design or designing one yourself is more personal - hey its gonna be there forever, something that represents you.. helps you and gives you strength,,,, so what kind of thing do you think best does this? :sm.jpg: :bigarmhug[1]: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKyler1311 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Share Posted October 11, 2008 Hi Guys,I am addicted to tattoos, I have 1 tribal symbol on my shoulder, a celtic eternity knot on my other shoulder, the words "the truth will set you free" around the right side of my neck, very apt I thought for an abuse victim. The rest are in chinese and all have personal meanings to me, including the words Beautiful on my right wrist and Disaster on my left wrist, this is from the song Beautiful disaster by Kelly Clarkson, a line in the song is, 'if I hold on through the tears and the laughter, will it be beautiful, or just a beautiful disaster', I felt it kind of summed me up, I also have My Immortal in chinese on the back of my neck, taken from my favorite song of the same name by evanessance, the lyrics to witch are in my signature, I have a few more, but these are the personal ones.Next I want a nautical star on my hand, it means you'll always find your way home.Sarah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
