Hey guys
Need your oppinion on this episode I had last night. I did a name tattoo on my aunts leg, I did the outlining, turn out as it should, but when I started to back in black, it was like it didnt go in. Now I have never had any problems with filling color/black. I am a patient guy, and take my time in small circular motion for best solid work.
But this was the first time ever, I had a problem with the ink. My aunt is a tattoo collector, but this was the first on her leg.
I didnt do anything different from others I have made. Have any of you had a similar experience? My first thought was her skin, but I really have no clue what went wrong. I have done bigger tribal with no problems. Or maybe, its just one of those days…. Your thoughts on this please…

Could have been a number of things, not enough stretching of the skin, speed too low for the needle you were using, tube too tight around the needle tip no ink flowing, not enough ink to flow from the tube, trying to be too light in the hand… The biggest thing I have seen from new peeps is stretching, Not you standing up to relax your joints during a long session, but a good grip on the area and pulling of the skin to get it firmer and therefore much more receptable to ink.
