New Tattoo, Folks!

So on Thursday 13th Feb, 2014, I travelled to Seven Magpies, Bedford with my friend to get my 5th tattoo done. In the past I haven't been nervous about getting tattoos done, but for this one I was. I've heard that the guy I was going to (Mark) was amazing at portrait tattoos and so I decided to go with him because I wanted to have the best with what I had in mind.

The idea I had was to have a fox tattooed on my right index finger, inspired by a tattoo shown on bangbangnyc's instagram (not Cara D's lion tattoo). There's no particular meaning behind this tattoo and so some of you may think it's pointless - I don't care, soz.

After a long while of attempting to get the right size to fit my finger without it being too small, mark began. I must admit, some parts did hurt (i.e. the bottom knuckle area) otherwise, I think I handled it like a right pro. It wasn't an awkward experience and I am beyond impressed with what he managed to do considering a finger isn't the easiest place to tattoo.

My tattoo

In my personal opinion, I thought my tattoo ended up being better than the original and for that, I am super happy.

Couldn't recommend this place enough, so if you're debating on places to go, try out 'Seven Magpies' because it's definitely worth it.
