A tattoo artist I want to work with has some last minute availability at the end of the month… I really want to take her up on it but I have 5 relatively new piercings and adding a tattoo to the mix seems bad for healing 😭 help

As a professional piercer please watch your piercings, they have a high chance of 2/5 piercing rejections if you end up do booking that appointment 😭

3 ear piercings that are 3.5 months, nipples are almost 2 months old so they’re definitely still in the healing phase (yes ik that many piercings was not the smartest move don’t come for me)

What kind of tattoo do you have in mind?

It’s a modified flash of hers but basically just a moth surrounded by some peonies. I want to put it around the side of my knee so the moth bends with the joint

That sounds really intricate :o although brutal depending on the size and the other stuff

Potentially but hey, pain is temporary 🥲 I have a caterpillar arching over my other knee cap so I want the moth to match up with him

Thank you! I’m really excited to get the project started. It’s supposed to take about 2 day sessions since I’m tall and want it fairly big to fill the space :)

I’ve passed on it for now, but it’s good to hear a professional piercer weigh in. I feel better about that decision now :)

Is it bc of how long the recovery period would be?

Yes your body will fight the ink off your body or trying to and it/ trying to fight off the foreign object of your body too so one of those are bound to reject if you get it all done within a 6 month period!
