I want to get a memorial tat for my best friend but I'm not sure if I should wait until after the surgery. If it gets postponed again I don't think I can lol! The last was my Granddaughter's footprints with her name and nickname I gave her. What did you get 2 weeks ago if you don't mind me asking..

I have been thinking of getting an eyeliner tat for ages. Are there special places that specialize in permanent eyeliner? What is the cost? Rate the pain from 1 to 10. Any ideas? Any recommendations?

Hi lady who did mine is a register nurse who does it on the side, i think i paid around hundred dont remeber, pain was zero she used numbing cream first.

Thanks!

How did it come out? Did you do it in black, or brown ... or what color?

Cococat- Yes there are special places to get eyeliner done. Its costs about $150.00 I think. I was my nail Ladies guinea pig the first time, oh jeezes in 1998 and I got it blue. It started to fade to green so she redid it in 2005 for $100.00 and its starting to fade again. She told me that is normal. And I tolerate tattoo pain well so for me about 2 or 3 on a scale of 1 to 10. I usually sleep or eat during my tats

Thanks to you both for your replies about the eyeliner.

I appreciate your answers and suggestions.

Do you know if there is a support group on here from Dr Bass's office? There isn't one on his website and I rarely leave the house right now, well the last few years

Flutterby -

I do not know of any support group from Dr. Bass' office on this bariatric board. The support groups that he has that I go to have been at Physician's Regional (with Sharon) and in his Ft. Myers office (Nutritionist, Marci). If you go to his website (I think it's Gulf Coast Bariatrics) there is a calendar (you have to search for it, but it's there, under "Seminars and Support") where you can see the days that the support groups meet. They are great. Make every effort to go.
