Around the early 90's when the trend of hairstyles was long on top and shaved in the sides and back, I wanted to grow my hair long enough to ponytail then get a chinese dragon tattoo on my head from ear to ear. I would let my hair down in front of my parents (since they would freak out if they saw me with a tattoo), then tie my hair into a ponytail to expose the tattoo when I'm out with friends. I chickened out because 1, it was going to hurt like hell! 2, I was afraid my parents would cut me off their will. 3, it may not look cool when I'm past 40! Lastly, I was also afraid that my hair would not grow back because of the tattoo.
After more than 10 years, I'm planning to get a palm-sized tattoo on my back just below the shirt neckline. I am currently designing it and will get feedback from my more artistic friends before I actually have it tattooed on my back. I have a picture of it but I do not want to post it since someone else might use it. If I were to place something permanent on my body, I want it to be my original artwork.
Alexandria, which tattoo parlour do you recommend in Edmonton? Can you give a review of the guy you plan to visit? I just want someone really good and would need lots of advice to take care of the tattoo since I am known to easily produce keloids (scars) from the tiniest wounds.
