Bad Ink; Season 1: Episode 4. "Nobody put's that tattoo in the corner!"

I'm really into this show. I don't know HOW I didn't know about this until the other day. 

I don't think I have ever discussed my tattoo's on my blog.so now is a wonderful time..right? 

Alright..

My first tattoo was done in 2004. I was actually pregnant with my son at the time. I was a little scared because I had NO idea what to expect pain wise. So many people told me it would hurt..so I decided to play it safe and just get three small stars on my lower leg. One larger (about the size of a quarter) star with the letter F in it. F stood for my husband's (at the time) first name, Frank. There were two small stars beside the larger one that were for Keisha and Trey. 

After getting the stars..and finding out for myself that it really didn't hurt at all..I decided to add on to that piece. Initially the goal was to have stars going up my leg. Unfortunately..things didn't go the way I had planned. I have a bunch of stars that are on the top of my foot and up my calf. The problem is that I had asked for a few stars to look like shooting stars. The result was it looking as though I have ink smeared all over my leg. Horrible. At some point...this will be a covered up. 

My second tattoo is on my sternum. It says Evol (love backwards.) Now..that one was a little unpleasant at times. It felt as if someone was drilling into my chest. 

My third tattoo is on my inner arm right above my wrist. This tattoo means so much to me. I EARNED this tattoo. There is SO much meaning behind it. I am a believer that art tells a story...It doesn't matter whether that art is on paper or skin..there is a story. This tattoo tells a story of pain, fear, overcoming, strength, survival, victory. This tattoo is a teall ribbon that stands for Ovarian Cancer Awareness. There's some fancy doodles around it also. 

So now you know MY story..let's see what this episode has for us..

So this episode is a little different. These two men have horrible tattoo's...and they want them even worse! Which is worse? That's what they are competing against. Interesting..

So here's the before pictures of what they already have..followed by the AFTER photo's that should be..even WORSE! 

*Shaking my head....*

Some people. 

The final projects...

Who won the challenge with the worst tattoo?? I guess you'll have to go watch the show. *wink* 

And for the added chuckle...it might be wise to make sure your tattoo artist knows how to spell..so that you don't end up with any ...

wait for it....
