Thinking About Inking | Electric Ink

11:00:00


It's been almost a year since I went under the needle and got my very first tattoo. The sparrow sketch tattoo on my arm was once something I was always aware of but now I just catch it out of the corner of my eye every now and then and it makes me smile. I've grown to love it more as the time has passed and I've attached a lot of sentiment and emotion to the little guy.


According to ancient Egyptian mythology, the sparrow would catch the souls of the recently deceased and carry them to heaven. 
That's a big responsibility for such a little bird!

However, I have been thinking more and more about getting another tattoo. I'm torn between extending the piece, with more branches and an additional bird, or going for something entirely different on my other arm... 

I still try and care for it like it's a new tattoo, applying moisturisers and specific tattoo creams to maintain the vibrancy of the ink. Although my tattoo is just in greys, the sketch design means there are a lot of fine lines and shading so I don't want the detail or colours to fade too much.




The guys at Electric Ink sent me their gift box a little while back and I've been using the products regularly to keep my bird looking fresh and fine.
The gift box contains the three key products in their collection: Defining Body Oil, Vibrancy Serum and Daily Moisturiser



This is my tattoo before and after applying the defining body oil. The shading looks refreshed without my skin looking greasy or shiny

The Defining Body Oil is designed to give your tattoo that just inked look, with a sheen to highlight the definition of the design.



The Vibrancy Serum keeps your colours intense (that's perhaps the saddest part about colour tattoos is the fading that inevitably occurs) Again, whilst my tattoo doesn't have colour, it keeps the grey tones in my tattoo from looking all one shade.

Any Daily Moisturiser is not to be sniffed at. None of us are getting any younger but so many of us only think about the skin on our face. You've just invested good money on your tattoo so why would you neglect it? Make moisturising your tattoo part of your routine to keep it as its best.

What I also like about the Electric Ink gift box is that they are all full-size products, no little sample bottles making it great value and a cool gift for someone who has just been tattooed.

Friday 13th is the traditional day of flash tattooing. Usually depicting something spooky or unlucky and the number 13 in someway, it's a day for tattoo lovers to get a new, quick and usually less expensive tattoo (many charge either £13 or £31 for designs). The flash tattoos are usually stylised or fine line shapes to allow the tattooist to get through as many as possible in a day. While you don't get to alter or amend the design, they often become a collector's item as many tattooists don't repeat these designs again.



As today is Friday 13th, I thought it appropriate to share my love of Electric Ink's products and host a giveaway. They kindly sent me an additional gift box and so I'm giving this away for all you newly tattooed folks out there.
To enter, I want you to visit my twitter, follow the instructions in the giveaway tweet and reply with an image of your tattoo - simples!

  1. CRYPTO RECOVERIES AND OTHER TROUBLESHOOTS.


    Outside various bitcoin online trading communities...
    we are strictly rendering fast help to those bitcoin online investors facing various issues

    left unattended by their wallet accounts SERVICE PROVIDER (team supports),leaving you hanging and lost on how to go about getting help. 

    EG:

    BLOCKSTREAM (blockchain)

    Blockstream employs a number of prominent bitcoin core developers and is one of the largest 

    contributors of the software's funding.The company has been attempting to make it possible 

    to "break off" transactions from the bitcoin network,

    making the number of "REGISTERED ACCOUNT’S TROUBLESHOOT TICKETS” the network 

    could handle less important and most time not even looked into as there are 

    millions of “REQUEST TICKETS” on the team supports cue.



    "BE SMART ENOUGH”, to know these companies don’t even care if ONE out of more than a million customers they got is in need of support after getting scammed and etc.

    for example:


    1️⃣ NONSPENDABLE BITCOIN ACTIVATION! 


    2️⃣STOLEN BITCOIN$(fake FX trading platforms)! 



    3️⃣LOST PASSWORD GLITCH! 



    4️⃣TWO FACTOR AUTHENTICATOR PROBLEMS! 



    5️⃣LOST ID OR PASSWORD GLITCH! 



    6️⃣HACKED ACCOUNTS ! 



    7️⃣ RECOVERY OF CRYPTO (BINARY LOSSES & STOLEN FUNDS) 


    8️⃣PHISHING OF BITCOIN ACCOUNTS PROBLEM! 



    9️⃣LOGIN ERORS! 



    10.SCAMMED DURING BITCOIN TRADINGS (WITHDRAWAL ISSUES). 



    cases like these get your crypto funds trapped (likely lost forever,until you meet the right agents like "US").
