A 18 yr old teenage girl name Kimberley Vlaminck in Brussels goes in for a tattoo. She states now she only wanted 3 stars but ended up with 56 of them. So how did this happen? She states she fell asleep. Can you fall asleep getting tattoos on your face? I've never had a tattoo but I can't imagine its comfortable let alone being able to fall asleep. The tattoo artist Rouslan Toumaniantz states no way she was awake the whole time and she was looking in the mirror. She states that he only spoke broken English and French. I dunno I think flapping arms and screaming would pretty much come across in any language as stop. Not to mention she only wanted three she says - ok hold up 3 fingers
When the tattoo was completed she paid, never complained UNTIL she came home and her father and boyfriend were not happy. Well I can understand that one, I think as a parent I would be furious. She is now suing the tattoo parlor for $14,000 the cost of the laser surgery.
I'm sorry I'm just having a hard time believing this story. Again I have never had a tattoo so enlighten me can you fall asleep getting a tattoo (and on the face). Maybe if the tattoo was in a meaty area of the body you could sleep but the face??? Well regardless she is a star now and 56 times over
See that is what I thought - it had to hurt like hell. Your right about blood and I know that head wounds really really bleed so I'm sure at 56 tattoos she had to have bleed quite a bit. Yeah I'm thinking when dad and boyfriend freaked she had that oh crap what did I do feeling. Stupid kid!
No way in the hot place downstairs are you falling asleep during a tattoo. Meaty or not. They're not put on with feathers ya know... it may not be excruciating pain, but still. The forehead??... that's gotta hurt (and like MIW said... bleed)
C'mon, 3 stars would take a LOT less time than 56. And looking at the pattern, it looks pretty well thought out. They always put a pattern on first, and let you approve it. So I'd like to know, which 3 did she approve?
I call BS.
This absolutely is BS. I have 13 tattoos, it is not possible to fall asleep during them. No way. Plus, like CK said, they put a stencil on you first to make sure it's exactly what you were you want it.
one word: drunk.
that's my theory!
~karma: i'm countin on it~
one word: drunk.
that's my theory!
I agree. Cuz I have 4 tattoos.. and I can't imagine having fallen asleep through any of them while being sober...
Well... they are in a shape of a 3.
I hope she doesn't win. Whatta idiot.
Well... they are in a shape of a 3.
haha ok that is funny - I didn't notice that but yeah your right it is in the shape of a 3
So, she's decided to keep the ones on her forehead, and have the rest removed. Hmmmmm sounds awfully fishy for someone that didn't want them.
In a land of wonderous things...
actually getting them in "meaty" areas hurts too. i'm sure getting it on a bone hurts lots worse but it does sting quite a bit and it bleeds a lot more in a meaty area...the blood from my last tattoo soaked thru the bandage and when i showed up at the exes apt that night he freaked out thinking i'd had an accident, that's how bloody it was *lol*. and it was a little tattoo...soooo...i mean, 56 times on your face??? yeah no, unless you were drunk/high (in which case reputable tattoo parlors would not tattoo you) or suffer from narcolepsy, no way you're falling asleep. i call bs plain and simple. her dad and boyfriend freaked and now she wants it gone but not at her expense. she should be ashamed of herself for being so litigious.
