Yesterday I went and got my first tattoo. It's a specialized and intricate butterfly with silhouttes of women in it. I thought it really fit.

Thanks =) It took 4.5 hours. Even still, it was much less pain than laser ;)

ooh nice! I was going to get a (much smaller) butterfly in the front, just below my pantyline to the side, but decided I had enough pain in that general area already lol
beautiful work Debra!

I agree. Is tattooing really painful?

I third that motion! ;D Beautiful. I don't fancy tatts on myself, but can appreciate them on others, especially when they are as individually artistic as that one.

Nice Tattoo Debra. :)

Love the style of it. I've been thinking about getting one too,
but I haven't found anyone around here yet that does quality work like that . :)
