Today's tattoo: atlas moth on my dome.

I was pretty nervous for this one. Turned out to be easier than chest, ribs, palms, buttcheeks, spine, etc. Not really so bad at all pain wise, mean I felt it, but got through it pretty chill. Next up is a pair of monarch butterflies on my head, finishing a 10 year old tattoo on the side of my head (black mamba) as well as a bumble bee or two and a few small flowers. Likely cherry and pear . All on the head. August 1st is next appointment. Stoked.

@Oaktavia
wow , looking awesome Stevie ! Always thought it must be super painful, great that it wasn’t bad as expected
I am surprised that it seems to be no problem to work as a teacher and having that much ( visible) tattoos, that’s very cool!! Don’t think it would be possible here in Germany, at least not with tattoos on hands, face and so on .

@Daniel-San I was hired with one hand tattooed and maybe a few knuckles. I didn't ask and just kept getting tattooed and was surprised too at first. More teachers have tattoos now compared to when I started 11 years ago. Two of my principals have forearm tattoos. Being an art teacher, a lot of people embrace my appearance. I remember being asked about my tattoos by the principal interviewing me and I must have said something she liked because I was hired the next day. A lot going on here in USA these days.

Very cool.

So are you going to rock a shaved head from now on @Oaktavia? Or is it going to be one of those tattoos that sits there, hidden, until it reveals itself in your dotage?

Looks gnarly by the way.

[Brian]

Wow @Oaktavia that is amazing

[Oaktavia]

@EdH I'm going to continue to get my head tattooed until I'm finished. From there, I plan to keep it buzzed at a 2 guard for a while. I'll grow it back out eventually, buzz it when I miss seeing them. Idk I'm just going to roll with it.

[Oaktavia]

@Brian thanks dude

[Mizmazzle]

Damn @Oaktavia freaking beast!! I can only imagine the buzzing in your brainium as that needle ran across your dome!!
Mad cool dude!!

[Oaktavia]

@Oaktavia so sick man! My throat was bad enough, but a trad eagle across the back of my head is one of my next to do's!

[Oaktavia]

@Bailey pain-wise my throat was worse. Go for your head! Get it over with haha.
