Last Wednesday night my friend/tattoo artist had posted on his Instagram account that he had some free spaces on Thursday and Friday for tattoos. I replied back writing "I wish!" Then I thought about...why wish about it when I can just swing by before work and get something done quick?
So I did.
I had a maneki neko tattooed on the left side of my neck over a year ago in white and blue. I thought it would be fun to get a matching tattoo on the other side of my neck. I chose red this time because it's my favourite colour and why not?
All in all the process took an hour. I was at work by 2 and contended with co-workers taking a peek at my new tattoo. I don't mind the curiosity, just no touchie please.
Have you gotten a spur of the moment tattoo? Tell me your story.
Much love,

Eeep. I don't have a single tattoo. Needles freak me out! Ha.
Yours is cute, though. How many do you have?
That's so bad ass. I wish I could do something like that, but unfortunately my tattoo guy doesn't work locally.
Anyways, just wanted to say hi and that I was stopping in from "The Totally Awesome" blog hop. Hope you're having a great day!

Your new tattoo is fantastic!
The first two tattoos I had done were spur of the moment tattoos: one after dinner with a group of friends and the second was done on my first trip to NYC. I think the reason I love them both so much is not because of the designs, but because of the memories attached to getting them done.
Love this! I'm hoping to get my own finally later this week.
I love your spur of the moment idea!
I actually got my back tattoo spur of the moment, but i knew what I'd wanted for awhile. I just wasn't planning on getting it that day. (:
You can see it here if you'd like-

My two sisters and I decided on triple spirals one night, phoned the tattoo shop the next day and got in. The tattoo is so meaningful to me because it signifies so much.

So cute! I have 10 tats and about half of them were spur-of-the-moment. The other half were planned out for about a day before I got them. And yes, I love them all. :)
Love it! I don't have any tattoos (or piercings) due to my massive phobia of needles but I love seeing other peoples, it's such a unique art form xo
how awesome!! i love it :)
That's awesome!
I have a few tattoos planned out but I never go out and get it done haha.
Oh I love it! My tattoo was spur of the moment-ish. The same day I thought of it I made the appointment, which was a little less than a week later. When I thought of it, though, it felt like I had always known and wanted it. Which is kind of cheesey.
I love maneki nekos :p; that's a great tattoo! I bet it must hurt on neck. I'm such a pussy, hehe.
looks great. I want a behind the ear tattoo. Right now I think it will the X-Files X.
