Covering Baldness with Tattoos
by Tattoosue on Feb.12, 2012, under News, Tattoos-Body Art
I always wonder what is going to be the next discovery for tattoo uses. And here it is. Guys that are losing their hair are getting a procedure called “scalp pigmentation”. Over 50 percent of men over 50 years of age are affected by male-pattern baldness. Going bald can be a traumatic transition for some men. They don’t like it at all but now there’s a new option in town.
A company called HIS have come up with the technique. It’s basically creating an optical allusion of a buzz cut for guys that have lost their hair. Different shades of pigment are tattooed in the scalp replicating the density and size of short hairs. HIS is now opening up clinics across Europe and the US and there is no shortage of interested male clients.
Guys like it because it’s more affordable, permanent, and it’s non-surgical. This gives men an alternative to transplants which cost much more.

Little Girls Visiting the Tattoo and Piercing Shop
by Tattoosue on Feb.07, 2012, under Movies & TV & Video, Piercing, Tattoos-Body Art
We have another sign that the tattoo industry is becoming more legit and acceptable. Now that shops are popping up in nice neighborhoods, people are becoming more open minded in their attitude towards the business.
Little Girl Getting Ears Pierced
More mothers are avoiding the mall kiosk. They’re taking their young daughters to tattoo and piercing shops to get their ears pierced instead! Mothers believe the tattoo shops are cleaner and they get more individual attention. People are reporting positive experiences which are leading to more people favoring the tattoo shops over the mall.
The stigma and stereotype associated with tattoo parlors is finally fading into history. It may have been true at one time that a tattoo shop was the cleanest place around. Think about it. They didn’t even use rubber gloves until a couple decades ago! That seems shocking now.
Now we’re smarter about sterilization and almost every state regulates the industry. The competition is fierce too – why visit a dirty shop when most cities are filled with talented artists working in comfortable and clean shops? Now it sounds like the general public is smartening up and the stereotypes are becoming history.

Mike DeVries is one of my favorite artists. He’s most well known for his realistic color tattoos. He doesn’t seem to be on any type of ego trip even though he’s tattooed some celebrities and has won over 100 awards over the years.

Auctioning Off Some Skin
by Tattoosue on Jan.20, 2012, under Art, News, Tattoos-Body Art
One woman from New Zealand has been an inspiration for other individuals now offering auctions for picking out – what will be inked on their rears. Tina Beznec, the 23-year old woman, came up with a unique method to raise money. Utilizing a New Zealand auction site, she’s taking bids to auction off a space of 9cm by 9cm on her butt for the tattoo of the winner’s choosing!
Her ad suggests –“advertise your business”, propose to your loved one (I doubt this would be a great idea), “destroy her love life” ( chuckle), get creative! The winner of the auction will receive a framed photograph of the final piece of art. If they’re lucky enough to live in the area, she said it’s OK to observe her getting the tattoo. The auction ends in February and as of today – the highest bid is $12,200!!
Now this idea is catching on and men and women are auctioning off space in the same area. In some cases, these people are strapped for cash and are planning to keep the money, while others are using it as a tool to raise money for a charity they believe in.
For example – Hannah Wesley, a nursing student, is offering the same options as Tina but she’s handing over half of the cash raised to her favorite animal welfare organization, the SPCA.
It’s an easy way to raise money for a good cause and shows that tattooing can be used for good causes.

Tattoo Gives Man Permanent Erection
by Tattoosue on Jan.12, 2012, under News, Tattoos-Body Art
An unlucky twenty-one year old man from Iran had some words, along with his girlfriend’s initial (wonder how laser removal will feel once that relationship shits the bed – ouch!), inked on his private parts.
For eight days nothing unusual happened. Then he began to notice that his “morning erection” was lasting much longer than usual. Things steadily progressed until eventually he has acquired a constant half-rigid penis.
Doctors from made a diagnosis of non-ischemic priapism. It’s a medical condition where blood flowing out of the penis is not sufficient enough to shrink the erection.
Doctors tried to correct the condition with a simple surgical procedure that placed a shunt inside of his penis to drain the excess blood. Unfortunately the procedure didn’t work.
Doctors are not offering any answers except try more surgeries but they were pessimistic about any type of permanent solution!
The guy decided to leave well enough alone and says he has no regrets. No regrets?? Really???
