So im getting my first tattoo in a couple weeks and i just need advice?

My first tattoo is going to be a fairly large chest piece and i take pain pretty well from my experince with a few facial piercings. and i do get light headed alot from being a vegan for 3 years so i know i dont have good blood pressure or vitimans so does anyone have any advice for me so i dont pass out or get sick?So im getting my first tattoo in a couple weeks and i just need advice?
Eat a good meal before you go and bring some water with you. Tattoo artists around my area always recommend you eat something before getting inked ;o)So im getting my first tattoo in a couple weeks and i just need advice?
standard tattoo rules


1)always eat somthing before coming.


2)pain killers before hand are allowed though asprin is forbidden so try somthing else.


3) dont touch it imediatly because tht will make it dirty and encourage illness


4)lot's of water beforehand


and thts all i can think of sorry this is not very helpful.
make sure you eat before you go...you should be taking lots of supplements since you are vegan and do lack essential vit, min, and oils that you can only get from meat. i would reccomend pasta, fruits and veggies, and maybe bring with you some water, and a fruit smoothie for if you get light headed.....just remember to listen to ur body and BREATH!!!
eat first...don't get a hangover that day of because you'll feel alot sicker while getting it down...relax and breath!





you might have to start thinking or creating a 'happy place' in your mind before the day comes because its PAINFUL!!!! and you need as much distraction from the pain as possible.





goodluck!!
vegan?! props to you...i'm a vegetarian :) anyway back to the subject. eat something about an hour before you go- something small, like a sandwhich. bring water and a snack with you, something with sugar, to keep your blood sugars up. that should be plenty to keep you from getting sick or lightheaded.
Really the best thing is to be sure you have a good meal an hour before going in. Take a look at Nava Atlas's books on veganism as it sounds as if being light headed you are not quite balancing things out well enough.
i also want a tattoo everyone keeps telling me to take a couple of pain killers before i go...i want a small one so everyone says it wont takae very long
well I can tell you this, if is your 1st get a small one....it will hurt like a ***** ...
