Tattoos

So, Stephanie, Corrie, Charlotte, Emily, and I all headed to Tattoo Korea for our day of tattoos.

Our appointment was at noon, but as per usual, we were all late. So, we didn't get there til 12:20 and we didn't start until 1 pm. Our tattooist Potter was awesome and tattooed all of us (except for Em who was there are our cheerleader).

POTTER~~~! <3

Tattoo Korea is an awesome art studio and the owner/founder Aerok was so nice to us! He grew up in LA, so his English was awesome. Potter spoke a little English, but anything major, Aerok was there to translate. There were only foreigners there getting tattooed. Although, when we were there for our consultation, I saw a few Korean guys getting tats. Since we were there until 7 pm, Aerok kept playing movies for us. <3

What ever you think it! What ever, we'll ink it!

 So, first up were Corrie and Charlotte for their 선생님 tattoos. 선생님 (seon-saeng-nim) means teacher.

Dollar, dollar bills y'all~!

Charlotte's stencil

Done~!

YAY~! Plastic wrap! Charlotte is excited~

Now Corrie's turn~!

Potter tattooing Corrie

Done~!

All of our tats were wrapped with plastic to keep the blood from dripping everywhere.

Seonsaengnim Twins~!

Then, it was my turn. ^.^v

My tattoo bled more than I had expected. ^^;;

You can see little drops of blood in the flower...

It's so cool~! I love it!

Finally, it was Stephanie's turn. Her tattoo is hardcore-- a cherry blossom branch over her ribs. It took a little over 3 hours.

Chilling and snacking while Steph gets tat'd

More chillin' and snackin'

Break time-- shading on the branch is done

More chillin' and "I'm hungry! When can we go get dinner" time~

Almost done~!

Finally done~!

YAY~!

I love how Potter's like, "I'm out, yo. I wash my hands of these crazy 외국인 (foreigners)~!"

Anyway, that was our FULL day at the tattoo studio. Seriously, I love Tattoo Korea. All of their artists are super talented. If I have an inkling to get another tattoo while I'm in Korea, I'll definitely come here again~! THANKS POTTER AND AEROK~!
