Found this gem on Facebook, the kid is 15 and this is what he calls his “prison drawing” because he sketched it out while in juvie for shoplifting. The person who tattooed him was 16, and did this in his bedroom. Just to give you an idea, this is the best out of the 14 other tattoos he has.

… THANK YOU.
BUT LEAAAVVEEEEEEE BRITTNEEEYYYY FELICE ALOONNEEEEE!!!111!!1!11!
Lol aww. I have a finished apprenticeship, I just don’t practice right now as I completed my apprenticeship away from where I currently live, and there’s nowhere hiring. I am a ‘fucking professional’.
Once again, you enjoy being elitist. Since when did having a few modifications make you know less about the world of modifications? Exactly. It doesn’t.
We have three professional piercers/tattooists on this blog. It’s kinda cute how silly you are.
LOL GUIZES I’M SUCH HOT SHIT. SUCH HARSH WORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN SPOKEN.
I don’t spend all day on the internet, I volunteer 8 hours a day in a hospital. Nice one (Y) Get your facts right before you start calling people out, love.
We can take shit, we just find it laughable when people try and defend something with is life threatening and dangerous and really stupid.
I do hope you realise that Awful Mods is really quite an old blog now, we’re pretty damn used to getting hate, and we really don’t care. Why? Because people are idiots and need to be told.
We aren’t whiny bitches, we care about the welfare of the population. Sorry if that offends you.
TAKE IT TO THE GOD DAMN SUBMITTER JESUS ON FREAKING TOAST.
She can not give a fuck, but us professionals who see someone in the public eye clearly going against sane and safe advice is annoying. It’s telling a bunch of young impressionable kids that ‘yeah, it’s totally fine to get an untrained professional to tattoo you in a kitchen’
There’s nothing safe, sane, or sterile about that, at all.
TL;DR:
LEAAAVEE BRITTNEYYYY ALOOONEEEEEEEEEEE BAWWWWWWWWWW
Take that to the submitter, not us.
I don’t follow her, have her on Facebook, just see photos of her on Tumblr.
TAKE IT TO THE GOD DAMN SUBMITTER, NOT US.
As far as I’m aware, she just goes around tattooing people in their houses. I’ve no idea if she ever trained, but as you said, if she’d done so properly, she’d know better than to tattoo someone out of their own kitchen.
It’s safe if you do it correctly, otherwise the modification greats of the world wouldn’t swear by it. Also, the tape that should be used has no adhesive, it simply sticks to itself. If you’re getting ‘all that shit’ in yours, then you aren’t using enough oil, or are using the wrong kind of tape, or simply not giving enough care.
And it’s easy enough, just document the amount of tape layers you have on your ears, and when you need to re-wrap, just wrap the same amount of layers.
Take care, and take time, especially when taping. You can’t rush the tape application, and it’s so so easy not to get it wonky and lumpy. You just have to be patient.
Reblog, tell your friends, your neighbours, your cats and possibly your gold fish.

If you can’t take the advice we’re giving. That’s cool. But we’re still going to give it to you anyway and explain why your (for example) lobes are disgusting, red, infected and possibly necrotic. If you want to ignore our professional advice, that’s fine, but we’re still going to give it to you, and then say ‘I told you so’ when your lobes destroy themselves.
