Metamorphosis

I got a tattoo from Joe Kelly. It was supposed to be a black panther with green eyes, on the back of my hand. I wasnt too unhappy initially, as the tattoo looked great when I left. The only potential red flag was that it took much longer than expected, almost 4.5 hours and Joe wasnt able to finish the full design. But he told me he would be good to schedule another session to touch it up and finish everything for just $100 more. That satisfied me and I left feeling good about my new ink that I had wanted for quite some time. With that being said, once the 2nd skin came off things went way south. All the details faded, about 75% of the color came out, and overall it looked like it was halfway done and like it just wasnt done right. There is no line work, the mouth area looked particularly bad, with the teeth just being empty splotches of untouched skin. I paid $500 and gave Joe a $100 tip for a faded gray, toothless panther that took 4.5 hours. At the end of the day, I am going to have paid around $1150 and have 7-8 hours of tattooing on the back of hand for what should have been a $500 tattoo that took 4 hours or so tops.

Uhm absolutely wonderful?? I’ve had my naval pierced in the past, which was a much longer process and a little more painful. Heather was so kind and made this piercing quick and painless. I’m super grateful! And as an anxious girl, everyone was super kind and patient. So, thanks guys! Looking forward to seeing yall again! :)
