Alright, so, I’ve always wanted to get matching tattoos with my sister. We’re super close, you know? Like, best friends since forever. We finally decided to just go for it.
First things first, we brainstormed ideas. We spent hours on Pinterest, Instagram, you name it. Looking at all sorts of designs. We wanted something meaningful, but not too cheesy. After a ton of back and forth, we finally settled on a simple design – two halves of a heart. Classic, but it fits us.
Next up, finding an artist. This was tricky. We asked around, checked out a bunch of portfolios online. We wanted someone with a good reputation, especially when it comes to hygiene and all that. Eventually, we found this one artist whose style we really liked. Clean lines, good reviews. Perfect.
Then came the appointment day. We were both a little nervous, I won’t lie. I mean, it’s a tattoo! It’s permanent! But we were also excited. We got to the studio, and the artist was super chill. She showed us the design again, made sure we were happy with the size and placement, and then we got started.
- I went first.
- I chose my wrist.
- It was a weird feeling, kind of like scratching but also vibrating.
- Definitely not the most comfortable thing in the world!
My sister got hers on her ankle. She said it tickled more than anything. She was laughing through most of it, which made me laugh too. The whole process didn’t even take that long. Maybe like an hour total?
Aftercare
Afterward, the artist cleaned up the tattoos and wrapped them. She gave us a whole speech about aftercare. Keeping them clean, using the right ointment, avoiding the sun. You know, the usual. We followed her instructions to the letter. They healed up nicely. No problems at all. Now, we’ve got these matching tattoos, a little reminder of our bond. It’s pretty cool, I have to say. Totally worth it.
