    I remember reading this really interesting story about a regular tattoo guy who kind through accident got into doing tattooed nipples. Now he gets before pictures and spends time doing pre-tattoo practice sketches. He spends a lot of time talking the ladies through the whole thing on the phone. In part because a lot of the ladies are like 50/60 and have never had a tattoo in their lives.

    It was pretty fascinating and the amount of life satisfaction the guy got from it was amazing. He still did regular tattoo work but he really found the reconstructive work was a whole other level.
