Oh I wasn’t shocked by the blood at all! What I have been shocked by is the flu like symptoms I’ve been feeling. I guess the tattoo was right over a glandular kinda area, so all the gunk that was being held in the gland has released into my body. I’ve had the worst headache all night!
So yeh, protip for those getting neck tattoos: get your hands on some cold and flu tablets, drink buttloads of water, and rest up!
