Blacklight Tattoo Sleeve Healed

Three months after the initial tattooing and it is completely healed and virtually invisible. In the picture below, some of the scarring is faintly visible in the top left hand corner as some circles. It is amazing how many places you will randomly find a blacklight and be able to show off your tattoo! If you have not seen my previous blog posts on tattooing myself with blacklight ink and the one week later photos, you should go see them!

Blacklight Sleeve Tattoo healing

The blacklight sleeve tattoo is healing nicely, right on schedule. Should take a couple of weeks for the redness to fade as the skin heals. Now I must contemplate what my next ink patch will be! Or should I say where? Thanks to everyone for your wonderful comments and praise btw!

Blacklight Sleeve Tattoo

Just finished a 5 hour tattoo session (with myself...). You can check out a video of the wrap-around view of the sleeve on Facebook videos! I used a tattoo kit from Superior Tattoo and some blacklight responsive tattoo ink. I use the white ink as it is basically invisible in regular light. There is no one better to practice your tattooing on then yourself! Yes, it hurts. Yes, it is permanent. But I love it!

These are photos of me tattoing the sleeve. One is with a camera flash, and the other is without. The one without shows the light I am actually tattoing myself in. I learned tattoing from the internet and practice. Blacklight tattoing has been quite a challenge, but I am getting much better!
