    Is this normal?? This is my 6th tattoo and it's the first one I've ever noticed being left with bruises after! Got it done yesterday. It's on my shoulder, like the actual point of my shoulder not the back area and it's bruised most on the side towards my neck/chest. I never knew I bruised so easily :O

    Totally normal. I bruised like a peach for some of mine.

    you are having a needle jabbed into you thousands of times an hour, I would say yes, bruising is normal

    Totally normal, don't worry yourself it'll reduce after a few days

    Some do, some don't. Nothing to worry about. I was black and blue for a week after my ribs

    Bruising is gone way down now and the tattoo is gone to the itchy peely stage! Thanks everyone :) I was just panicking because it had never happened me before :P
