Want Pinker Nipples?

George “Drake” Wiggins at Body Xtremes in North Quincy, MA, did these nipple tattoos on a post-op transsexual who wanted, well, pinker nipples. (See also: nipple outlines, tattooed nipple shield, and a nipple flower).

    Just wanted to point out something that a lot of people won’t know about transexual boob jobs (and I don’t think I saw above). Quite often they will insert bags that are inflated with air or saline to get the skin stretched enough to take a ‘real’ implant. Looking at her left armpit, there does appear to be some redness so this could be where the port is to inject saline… In which case, they shouldn’t necessarily be ‘sitting right’ yet anyway, as they might not be her final boobs!

    Those of you who keep saying stuff about “putting boobs on a MAN” ought to re-think your choice of words. Although her body was originally biologically male, she is not a man.

    It sounds like, unless I misunderstood paintedlady’s comment, the tattoo artist was transphobic like whoa. How sad.

    I never would have thought about tattooing nipples to achieve the desired color. That’s great!

    well the ink was very fresh but I did in fact use a wash with about a 50-50 mix of color to witch hazel so once the tattoo heals they will be much less PINK and look the color this client wanted.

    I thought it was an interesting idea and I really had no idea how it would take nor did I know how much pain they would feel but I can say it took over an hour because the client could only deal with a little bit at a time. I could have done it in 30 minutes or less seeing the color went in good which was a surprise to me.

    also the comments on my page were written more because of the fact the client was trying to grab me by my privates and seemed all fucked up on something but wasn’t when they signed all the papers. I can’t baby sit people in the rest room and I don’t care what sex you are or what you like in the bedroom I am there to tattoo not deal with sexual advances by any one. I have a girlfriend and when I am working I am there to tattoo not get some ass.

    As for the tattoos though I know how it goes now and can say if someone wanted it done again I would do it but let the person know the piece will hurt and I will still think if it as a job.

    If a non-transgendered person grabbed you by the junk, you’d be unlikely to call that person “it”. So there’s no reason to do it when the person is transgendered; that’s a quality that’s got nothing to do with the person’s behavior.

    everyone is commenting on the fact that these are implants. but they could actually just be “grown” because of hormone pills, which would answer the question of why they look so “square” and why they aren’t perfectly even.
