At A Glance Author Babygurl Contact MsAttitude008215@aol.com Artist Chino Studio Black Work Tattoo Location Little Falls, New Jersey Well first i'd like to tell you about the before math of my experience...It took me a month to get my mom to say yes to this. The only reason she did was because my cousin got hers done and my aunt talked her into it(thanx meg and laura!). My dad was also a big part in this so thanx dad! But neways...
I found this place out by my other friends who got theirs done there. They said that they did it really good n theirs looks perfect! They also said that the guy was really hot so i definetly took their word on it!
So my mom says yes and that day she calls the place(Blackwork Tattoo) and gets all the 411 on it. She told them that i would be coming in tommorrow after school since u didn't have to make appointments. So all day in school i was excited and i was telling everyone about it. I think they got sick of it. LoL... So finally 3:15 came and out the door i ran...I hoped in my dad's car and off we drove. I brought my friend Kara(named changed for privacy) along for some moral support.
We got there and i rushed out of the car to get in the place as quick as possible...I think i ran over a couple of kids but i thought that they'd understand..so i plowed them over and ran inside..My mom finally got in and told them what i wanted.. They asked me to lift up my shirt to see my belly button. They said it was fine and i followed Chino to a room down the hall. He allowed Kara to come with me because he understands how nerve racking people get. So we got to the room and he left the door open so ne one that wants to see could stand by the door.
He made me sit down in a reclining chair..kinda like a computer chair...and he looked at my belly button. Then he marked it. He made me stand up to see if it was perfect. To line it up he put the clamp on to see if it was good. I guess it wasn't cause then he remarked the dot and made me stand up again. He asked me if i liked it and i said yes. So everything was good to go. Then he put the clamp on and told me to lean back. He got a needle it was about 2 inches long. A 14g. He told me to breathe in and out in deep breaths. He said that on the count of three he would put the needle through. He counted to three and waited a second and stuck it through. It felt like a pop in one side and out the other. I've read some stories where they tell you that it hurt so much but i can honestly say that it didn't hurt at all. He then followed it with a banana barbell and he had some trouble screwing the ball on top but it was all good. Then he took some paper towels and wiped off the excess blood. Which wasn't a lot. I was breathing kinda hard so he asked me if i wanted a drink of water but i said no n that i was ok. So i jumped up to look and it was perfect. I mean completely lined up in a straight line. He gave me after care instructions and out i went.
Then i went to Burger King to get something to eat but i couldn't eat i was too excited about it still. LoL...At first it hurt a little when i sat down cause i leaned over but it was all good...Now it's fine..It did get a little crusty and pink but it's healed now...You have to wait a month to go swimming and 2 months to go in the ocean. The only thing i needed to do with it was wash it with dial soap when i took showers and that was it...I never stopped using the soap...I guess it was just a habit. Now im working on getting my tongue pierced, i hope meg n aunt laura will help me out again..0:)...well that's my story and happy piercing.
