My First Cobalt-Free Tattoo

I finally got my first tattoo, and I was really nervous due to a cobalt allergy. Thankfully, the ink was cobalt-free! This tattoo represents a "fuck it" or "oh well" attitude in Croatian.

Pyramid Head Tribute

I've always been drawn to the psychological horror and symbolism of the Silent Hill series. This Pyramid Head tattoo is my way of honoring that fascination and the intense atmosphere the games create.

One Shot Knight on Ribs

This tattoo of a knight on my ribs was a spontaneous decision, a 'one shot' kind of deal. It represents my resilience and readiness to face challenges head-on.

First Tattoo Concerns

This is my first tattoo, a crab on my thigh, done on June 17th. I'm worried because it looks fuzzy and faded in some areas after healing, and I'm noticing inconsistencies, especially on the claw. I'm wondering if this is normal for small tattoos or if it needs a touch-up.

My First Tattoo: A Tribute to My Children

This is my very first tattoo, and I absolutely love it! It features Larkspur, chrysanthemums, and daisies, representing my two living children and the two pregnancies I've lost. It's a beautiful and meaningful piece on my forearm.
