"Tattoos exude pain and pleasure all at the same time." - Chester Bennington

As you all have read, (and for those who didn't, here is the link of my First Tattoo), I got another tattoo and this one, was quite ... detailed and looked fucking awesome but it FUCKING hurt so SO much as well.



But I "wasn't" supposed to have another tattoo at that time because of insufficient funds and the scared shit I have of losing money "again" on stupid shits I don't need as of the moment. 😂

So the story went like this...

Last year, me and my boyfriend's best friend, (let's just say his name was "Bob" 😂) talked about tattoos and stuff. I sent pictures of possible tattoos we both wanted and he sent some of his ideas as well. There were a LOT to choose from but we were both very indecisive as to what will our FINAL tat would be.

Mind like to remind you little children that a tattoo is a permanent thing that will stick onto your skin till the day you DIE.

And so choosing a tattoo that we both will NOT regret was the absolute priority.

We planned on booking a tat sesh by September that year but was cancelled due to some of Bob's personal reasons. I was cool by it since I wasn't in a hurry and all to get a tat sesh. But whenever he gives the signal, he knows I am always on standby and ready af for the tat sesh.

Even if it meant losing some money for it. Fck.

3 months have passed and we are on board for our tat sesh!

We searched some good tattoo studios that has good reviews and excellent artistic skills that clients wont regret paying and stuff. Since it was Bob's FIRST TATTOO, he really wanted to find an exceptional tattoo studio with an all equal exceptional tattoo artist. The first choice was Creative Class Tattoo Studio.

I have been long following their Instagram account because their tattoos are just

✨exceptional✨

All of it were well inked and when it came to detail, man, IT WAS VERY DETAILED INDEED.
Bob said he liked it since the tat artist was good and the studio was just a few blocks away from his house. 🤣
But unfortunately, we weren't able to book a tat session on their studio since they were already fully booked and the artists were having their holiday rest day as well. Ya know...getting drunk and wasted on Christmas and New Year's Eve. 🤣



So we went on to our last option, RAD Tattoo Davao.



They were equally excellent on their tattoo work as well. The daughter of the former president of the Philippines, Rodrigo Roa Duterte, got her tattoos inked there on RAD's C.Bangoy (pronounced as bang-goy) Street Branch. Their other branch was located inside SM Ecoland, a mall in Davao City, where the price is a little bit expensive compared to their separate store on C.Bangoy Street.

And so off we went to our tattoo session in RAD Tattoo C.Bangoy St. Branch.
Our chosen tattoos were picked by the tattoo artists themselves.
Bob was the first one to get tat since his chosen design was very detailed and intricate. It needed time for the tat artist to focus.

This was the finish design:

COOL AF RIGHT?? RIIIIGHHHHTTT?????!!!

If you could zoom in on the picture, you could easily see the focus and the dedication of the tattoo artist poured onto every stroke.

I most especially liked how detailed the trees looked like.

The blue moon and the blue lake gave the tattoo so much life since most of it was only plain black and all.

And yes folks, that kind of tattoo, FUCKED UP BOB'S MIND. HAHAHA 🤣

It was painful. But of course you have to endure it. Ya don't want to go home with half of the image imprinted on your skin right? That'll be a waste of money.

In this picture, I asked him, "Does it hurt?"
He didn't said any word, but only nodded his head to imply the words "yes it fucking does actually."
And we just laughed about it. 🤣

We were both being tat in this picture and I was feeling the same fucking pain he felt as well.... 🤣

Now here's mine!!

This here is the design me and my tat artist, (well mostly he picked it for me cause the ones I picked bored him to death and deemed it "common".)

And this here, is how MY tat sesh went!

DUDE IT FUCKING HURT 😭

I was supposed to have tolerated this kind of pain already since I already have 3 tattoos on me, but damn boi, the shading got me feeling hell bruv 😭 I think maybe that part of my body, which was on the left side of my hips, just wasn't tolerable for me. Maybe its also because of the fact that its from the left side of my body that it hurts that much rather than the right side of my body. I'm right-handed so maybe its because of that? I really dont know.

But I HAVE TO ENDURE THE WHOLE SESSION. 😭

The tattoo artist that is in the picture was the one who also inked the former president of the Philippine's daughter.

And the mthrfckr went to flip off his hand on my Instagram story.
That silly bitch.🤣

After the tat sesh we both had the obligatory pic.

Oh and I forgot to mention that my cuttttttttttiiieee and silly boyfriend also came with us but didn't get inked cause he's a pussy. 🙄 Look at him doing that stupid expression of his while I'm there smiling all cutesy. 😑

And now I present to you, the finished product!

COOL RIGHT??? I mean, bro, you gotta look at them details right there! Ya just gotta appreciate it. Not just because of how beautifully it was made BUT BECAUSE I FUCKING SUFFERED AND ENDURED THAT SHIT FOR AN HOUR AND A HALF.

So yeah, that was how our tat sesh day went. Me and Bob love our tat so much. If you guys would ever go to Davao City and have your skin inked, I highly recommend RAD Tattoo :)


Thanks for reading guys! Have a great day!
