As a general rule, they actually tell you not to eat anything within a couple hours before getting your ink done. Some people's nerves and reflexes act up when they're getting their tattoo. So a common one is people vomitting after a few minutes under the needle.

For some reason, I've been told that drinking diet pop during/after your tattoo helps. Something with the aspartame, I guess.

Hope your design isn't anything too big or complex.
Adrenaline's known to be a little sloppy with their work.

I had a word in handwriting done by Funhouse and it came out perfect. Took a bit over an hour, felt sore as fuck after.

I had another one (the same size) done by Adrenaline and it came out all blotchy. Took 45 mins. I didn't feel anything. I could've fallen asleep under the needle, and I barely felt any soreness afterwards. Right then I knew that the ink wasn't as deep as it should've been, and he didn't put as much effort in as the artist from Funhouse.

It's only a small tattoo, so I wasn't too worried. Probably gonna get them all touched up soon anyways.
