Share Your Irezumi Journey

I know everyone’s journey is different, just thought it’d be an interesting topic, if anyone would be willing to share.

I’m only 2 years in and I’m in my 30s. I started in 2024 after years of research and a promotion finally gave me the push to start with an arm sleeve cover up. Loved the results, decided to do a back piece to cover up some other teenage mistakes. Now extending the back piece into full leg sleeves. I have monthly appointments that are usually 4-5 hours of actual tattooing. Love my artist and shop so it’s made the whole experience great. Going to be bittersweet when I’m done and no longer going in every month and constantly healing. 🥲
