(Not too bad, just an annoying pinch type feeling) Should I keep them in or should I take them out? I wanna put an ice pack on them.. will that reduce swelling?

The piece is less than 6 months old. On one end of the tattoo the shading is dull and the lines are barely distinguishable. I love the actual artwork of the tattoo but the color is way too flat and it needs to be cleaned up . I used the same aftercare methods with this tattoo as I did my other two; this piece is the only one that I have this issue with. I feel like perhaps the artist didn't use a quality ink or did not go deep enough into my skin, I just don't know. Thoughts, suggestions, advice would be much appreciated.http://knink.com/BodyArt/CaptiveBeadRings/bxwmk/post.htmTue, 01 Jan 2013 04:23:14 GMThttp://knink.com/BodyArt/CaptiveBeadRings/bxwmk/post.htmAnonymoushttp://knink.com/BodyArt/CaptiveBeadRings/bxwmk/post.htmI want to get a captive bead ring, i have one piercing in my left earlobe, and it is not stretched or anything, does your piercing have to be stretched to use the captive bead earrings?http://knink.com/BodyArt/Hiding/bxwmw/post.htmThu, 27 Dec 2012 02:35:49 GMThttp://knink.com/BodyArt/Hiding/bxwmw/post.htmAnonymoushttp://knink.com/BodyArt/Hiding/bxwmw/post.htmHow cn I hide my tongue piercing for the first week?

I've done my usual aftercare: wash it a few times a day, cover with a thin layer of aquaphor for the first few days, once a good thin scab forms, I just use Lubriderm non-scented lotion. I usually heal up completely in 10-12 days and I'm only sore for the first day or two. Well this? Not so much. Within 2 days, I had an awful, thick scab that has formed and yesterday a chunk of skin, ink and all, just fell off when I was VERY GENTLY putting lotion on. It hurts horribly, so much so that I felt ill the first couple of days. The artist was anxious to get the work done (I'm moving soon), so she pushed me to do 6 hours. I normally don't go more than 3-4...http://knink.com/BodyArt/IsNipplePiercingsInfected/bxwmb/post.htmMon, 17 Dec 2012 08:45:52 GMThttp://knink.com/BodyArt/IsNipplePiercingsInfected/bxwmb/post.htmAnonymoushttp://knink.com/BodyArt/IsNipplePiercingsInfected/bxwmb/post.htmHello, im a female i have 2mths and 3weeks with my piercings.

I am waiting a month so most of it can wash out, and then going to a pro. My question is, can I use an all over toner to get it back to ash blonde? Will this damage my hair? We talked about doing highlights and then a toner. I am not a huge fan of highlights, so this is why I wanted to know about a toner all over. I just want to go with the one that will be less damage to my hair.http://knink.com/BodyArt/TattooRemoval/bxwlz/post.htmFri, 02 Nov 2012 05:53:58 GMThttp://knink.com/BodyArt/TattooRemoval/bxwlz/post.htmAnonymoushttp://knink.com/BodyArt/TattooRemoval/bxwlz/post.htmHas anyone had success using hydroquinone to fade away their tattoos? I got my first tattoo, and the artsist did completely what he wanted, and i ended up hating it. I bought a fade cream from walmart and have been putting it on nightly. It looks as if my tattoo is fading, the colors arent vibrant, and it looks like its lightening up. Am i just thinking its working, or is it?http://knink.com/BodyArt/ArtistryOfArtificialHair/bxwlv/post.htmThu, 01 Nov 2012 00:16:23 GMThttp://knink.com/BodyArt/ArtistryOfArtificialHair/bxwlv/post.htmAnonymoushttp://knink.com/BodyArt/ArtistryOfArtificialHair/bxwlv/post.htmtell me about artistry of artificial hairhttp://knink.com/BodyArt/Default/bxwlc/post.htmFri, 19 Oct 2012 18:18:59 GMThttp://knink.com/BodyArt/Default/bxwlc/post.htmAnonymoushttp://knink.com/BodyArt/Default/bxwlc/post.htmim 15 and i would really like to get my nose pierced! my mum really likes nose piercings as she thinks theyre pretty but she doesnt particularly want me to have one until i finish year 11 which is in half a year. my dad said he'd give me permission to get it done but because my mum said no he said i cant get it done. so would i be able to bring someone whose 18 (a friend) that would give me permission (who could say is my guardian) or does it HAVE to be your parent?

I'm not so in love with it now and I took it out two days ago. Tonight I tried putting it back in and it made my tongue sore. Now my question...How long until the hole completely closes? Will it ever completely close? I ask because I had my ears stretched to a 2 gauge for about two years. I took took them out six years ago and they never have returned to a 'normal' size.http://knink.com/BodyArt/MyTat/bxzrx/post.htmSat, 24 Nov 2012 03:42:05 GMThttp://knink.com/BodyArt/MyTat/bxzrx/post.htmAnonymoushttp://knink.com/BodyArt/MyTat/bxzrx/post.htmhi... im mel... i've currently got 13 piercings and 2 tattoos and i plan to get more piercings and tattoos... i have "family first" on my back and on my right thigh i have africa as a continent with a cartoonish leopard roaring in the middle... i'm thinking of getting some writing to go with my africa tat but i don't know what to get done... do you think it will be too much ??

To represent my two favourite scream queens (and Brian Nelson a favourite screenwriter.) Zoe Trilling gave up acting early in her career to be a dancer, but while she was in movies, at least most were horror and she built a cult following. She is the most emotionally powerful scream queen whose performance I've ever witnessed. Ellen equals this. In tribute, is why I want these tattoos. Hard Candy first, on my left shoulder. I used to want two naked females having sex on my chest, one daemon and one angel. But I've decided not to have erotic ink done, as a personal choice. I think this is the more subtle option. I've been planning my tattoos since 2008. In ten...
