Some people wear their hearts on their sleeve. Mikey, as we can see, keeps his in his hands. Me? I like to wear mine as a jaunty ascot. What can I say? I’m a slave to fashion.
(Tattoo by Chris Smith at Lucky Devil in Barrie, Ontario.)

I think I liked his hands better in the post before when they were just black and red.
whoa, that is gorgeous!..i do have a sort spot for hearts 😀
#1 i agree. it had a lot more impact on the eye
Wow, that tattoo was given in my town. Impressive.
SO AMAZING! i hope it doesn’t fade too badly.
Love hand tattoos. They always remind me of that great picture I think it was swastika freak shop, http://news.bmezine.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/happy-hand-friends-2.jpg, that post made my day. As does this one. How well do palm tattoos like this generally last?
lookin good Mikey 🙂 doing really good at healing in all the ink so far
agreed. i’m not one for colour tattoos in general, but the black and red was just amazing.
is it wrong that when i saw this, i almost immediately thought it came out of swastika freak shop? It seems lately that palm tattoos (especially with stippling)=that studio.
Me too trailerparkjesus!!
swastika freakshop does no color exept red and black…
like that hand…very nice!
….
I saw this and started naming the parts of the heart 🙂
andd I wonder why Im actually failing Bio hehe
Loves it x
i love it. pretty sure this is a blonde moment for me, but it must have stung quite a bit getting that.
I had my palms done a month ago- just line work.
Of all the tattoo work I have, the palms were without a doubt the most painful.
I also thought it was from Swastika Freakshop
Within all things great,
you find love.
You hold my heart in your hands.
Looking awesome Mikey! I miss you soo much! new years plans? call me!!!!
Love you too PEENER! <3
I’d be very interested in seeing how well this heals up. Of all the palm tattoos I’ve seen pics of (admittedly not a huge amount), none of them held up well. Hopefully this one will be an exception.
alot of the colour dulls after the “scab”(for lack of a better term) comes off.. looks alot less crayon looking and more like a shading technique. So far it’s holding fine but it could all just disapear one day! 😛 poof gone lol
I bet that would itch like hell healing as well. and you wouldn’t be able to do a whole lot while they’re healing for fear of knocking the ink out, right?
I picked at it all the time and i work with my hands everyday…hands heal alot different than other places on the body..the ink is hard to knock out during healing but its also just as hard to get it in…
am i the only one who’s never had a tattoo that itched? both of the ones on my calf muscles never itched except for p.t. in the morning after i got it the sweat and dirt and shit made it sting. other than that, it never hurt after getting it.
Its not very good I am sorry to say.
I love palm tattoos! I want eyes tattooed on my palms. My sister saw someone with a palm tattoo that was healed, bright and flawless. She asked the girl how it stayed so well and the girl said that she got it redone and touched up over 10 times. I guess its all about persistance.
I know that both times I got my lip tattoo it looked perfect at first and then *poof* it was all gone after a week. Now all I have left is a black smudgy thing in my inner lip. I wonder if after doing my inner lip 20 times it might stay
pillpoppinfun, what do you mean? You dont like the tattoo? I think it looks great and I hope it stays.
If anyone has the time, could you please post a link to the picture of this tattoo when it was just line work and background stippling? I thought I saw it here on Modblog, but I can’t find it for the life of me. Thanks.
ow ow ow ow ow!
that is so detailed, i definitely couldnt sit that long to get anything like that.
I really love this
its beautiful
