Underworld Tattoo

When the narrator intruduces us to phaedrus he states that phaedrus is a man who doesnt believe in life or death. Eckhart tolle in the power of now, i believe said the something very similar, he saide that the body and death or just illionsions. i understand what is meant when it is said that the body is an illusion and ultimately the body is not who we are. i dont understand the deeper meaning of life and death being and illusion though. What does this mean?

Usually with a hollow needle, the guage depends on where on your body you are getting pierced and how big of ring you are putting in. I don’t have any piercings, but have friends with many. A lot of them hurt like hell though, I have heard.

I had a few laser treatments that lightened my tattoo but didn’t remove it. It also left a scar in the shape of the tattoo. ALSO, if you’ve had a cover-up and you try to remove it, will you have to go through both layers? I have one that was green and is now black, and I’ve heard that green is harder to remove than black. Thanks!

well, i haven’t 100% decided what i want yet (either some delicate script written off-center on my lower back, or some stars on my hip bone) so i obviously must take care of that haha.
anyhow, the place is very nice, i was even there when i friend got hers done and it looks wonderful. any advice on what to do or ask? tips on design or placement? aftercare?
thanks!
